I spent Monday painting multiple coats of white paint on the board and batten in the half bath. It doesn’t make for exciting Instagram updates, but it’s necessary for the completion of this project. 🎨

I am in LOVE with the little gold mouse I found at an antique store a couple of weeks ago. He’s solid brass and super heavy and super adorable. 😍

Only 2 more days until Spring Break ☀️While I’m excited for the kids, it was just 2 weeks ago that they had 7 days off for Icemageddon.❄️

Who else is exhausted? 🤦🏻&zwj;♀️

It’s been a little while since I’ve shown the before picture of our master bedroom. I’m still working on larger, antique nightstands and new lamps, but what room is ever done? Right?!?! 😂

I’ve been dying to show you this dresser! I had you vote on colors a few months ago (between navy and green) and the vote was split very evenly. The tiebreaker went to my husband. 😄 She’s been ready to go for weeks, but

I never ever thought I’d be back in school, but after 15 years as a CPA, I’m going back to get a certificate in Interior Design. I know these classes will give me the building blocks to create the best spaces for my clients. 🤓📚🎓(I&rsqu

I’m itching to get my flower pot filled with spring plants and flowers! 🌺 This is my pot from a couple of years ago. I struggle finding plants for this spot. It gets the super hot sun from sunrise until 11am and then shade for the rest of the

Sorry I’ve been MIA the past week. We were without power for six days, and it has taken quite a bit of time to get myself back together.
I’m hoping to start working on the half bath again, and I will make sure to share updates as I do!

Feature Friday!
We are still without power 😩 so I haven’t been able to work on my half bath at all. I will post updates as soon as I can. We’ve been living with very generous friends, so I thought I would share someone else’s gorg

Day 3 with no electricity 😭 I hope you have a fireplace to keep you nice and warm. 🔥

We are feeling so blessed to have friends who would take us in! Our electricity has been off for almost 2 days and it is COLD in our house. We think it’s probably in the 30s. Praying for those who have to stick it out in the cold. 💙💙💙

Happy Valentine’s Day! 💙💙💙
Plans for today: Stay warm in my bed and finish watching Bridgerton. 🛌

Can’t wait for spring! 🌹 We are getting our 1st one of two winter storms tonight. We might actually get snow that lasts for more than one day. It’s hard to remember the last time that happened.
Spicy Take: I don’t love snow. 🙃 I
