As we creep up on the first anniversary at The Union Street, I can’t believe this post was a year in the making! I purposely didn’t post a restuarant reveal for the first few months after opening because I wanted all the locals to come to see it in person. As days turned into months there was […]
Remember last February when I attended the PPG Global Color Trends workshop in New York? It was then the 2017 Color of the Year was decided. It was such an amazing process to be a part of (read all about it here). In September Voice of Color announced Violet Verbena would be their ‘it’ color for 2017. Violet Verbena is a […]
We all know the farmhouse trend has been all the rage since the explosion of Pinterest a few years ago. Everyone has become a DIYer, and often the do it yourself hand gets a rustic spin, which lends perfectly to the farmhouse look. I’m so excited to share a collection of Modern Farmhouse Colors from Voice […]
Remember back last month when I shared the news about sinking our teeth into an Airbnb Apartment Makeover? (Click here for all the before photos). It’s all put together and I can’t wait to share the reveal! The Airbnb Rental After I still can’t believe the color combo I chose for this Airbnb rental, someone pinch me! […]
Whew, this Restaurant Bathroom Makeover was the biggest overhaul I think I’ve ever participated in… pssst, besides the painting I didn’t actually do much of the work, just the boss lady! At the first of the week I shared all the details of how the renovation rolled out. I came up with a vision and with the help […]
This past weekend I was really fortunate to join a group of color experts in New York city for the PPGÂ Global Color Trends Workshop. Although I don’t define myself a color expert, I certainly have caught the bug! IÂ had such an amazing time at the conference, learning how color trends are forecasted and getting my […]
This girls bedroom decor was actually a long time in the making. I started doing the painting back at the end of September, but that same week our house got broken into, and it threw a wrench into the plan. Then it seemed I was right into holiday planning and the bedroom got put together but […]
A while back I came across a very dated jewelry box at the thrift shop, it was only $3.99, so I scooped it up. When paint was the theme for So You Think You’re Crafty last week I decided to dig it out of the ‘needs makeover’ pile and give is a breath of fresh […]
Results are tallied and I was the winner for Kids Week on So You Think You’re Crafty! If you missed the entries last week you can check them out here. I was delighted to learn that my Peg Doll Family kids craft won 1st place for this round. My daughter had so much fun creating this piece of […]
It seems every post I write makes me seem like the laziest being ever, how did I manage to let everything slide for the past 6 years? Babies. I blame it on the babies sucking up all my free time. But now that they can manage themselves for the most part I’ve been ticking things […]
Whew it has been a long time since I have shared an easy everyday craft project. I’ve been so wrapped up in home decor projects, there has been no time for general fun crafts. Well today I have a fun back to school project that is cheap and easy to make, no saws required! This first […]
The day is finally here, Master Bedroom Reveal Day! It feels so good to make the bed with crisp new sheets, add the throw pillows, and stand back to see my weeks of hard work turn into a fresh new space. I can’t wait one more second to show you… Let me remind you what the […]
Everyday I’m hustlin’ to get our master bedroom makeover together. First on the list was the bedroom furniture makeover. Last week I shared how I took our hard on the eyes tall dresser and gave it a stunning makeover, and today I have to show you what I did with the bed. You might not believe your […]
Last week I put my bedroom furniture under the knife… like open heart surgery kind of knife. If you missed my nasty bedroom where I introduced the 90’s pine nightmare you can check it out here.  Something HAD to be done, I couldn’t live with the boring lines and the dreadful yellow pine for one minute longer- yuck. […]
My master bedroom makeover is finally on the chopping block! I feel like I’ve been talking how bad it needs to get done for years now (6 years to be exact) and the time has finally come! I’ve been a busy beaver cutting, hammering, and painting so I thought I better shine some light on […]
