In my opinion, this awesome summer home tour hosted by Jeweled Interiors and Dimples & Tangles is aptly named! ‘It’s A Colorful Life’ is perfect for sharing snapshots of my summer home. Juuuuust perfect, because that is exactly what it is around here at the height of summer. Both color-filled, and adventure-filled. Okay, so it’s […] Read more…

I’m finallllllllyyyy finished with my master bathroom, master closet, and nook, and I couldn’t be happier (or more tired)! * Special thanks to all my One Room Challenge sponsors!

Oh my goodness, one week until the big reveal. You know what that means? It’s officially One Room Challenge hell week. Haha! That’s the week at least 80% of ORC participants are working their butts off with just a hint of panic as to whether or not they can finish on time. This week I’m […] Read more…

At this point in the One Room Challenge, I feel like I’m speeding along quite nicely! Granted, the hard projects are still ahead that will slow me down considerably in the coming weeks. So I’m going to enjoy it while I can! This week I am adding some gorgeous architectural details by adding decorative moulding […] Read more…
It’s week 2 of the One Room Challenge, and I’m pretty sure I’ll be picking popcorn ceiling out of my hair for days. On the bright side, I’ll finally be able to show my ceiling and wall a little love when it is completely smooth and pretty! If you missed it, definitely pop over to […] Read more…
I can’t believe it is One Room Challenge time again! Plus, I’m pinching myself that I’ve been given the honor of being a featured designer once again (thank so much Linda)!! Last year’s Spring ORC I made over my family room and office nook as a featured designer. This year, I have big master bathroom […] Read more…
Now more than ever we are seeing the importance of creating homes that act as a safe haven for our families. As we go through this tough time together, I’m glad we can take a moment to appreciate the little things, and reflect on how we can help our families (especially the children) feel a […] Read more…
When it comes to mirrors, most people think of their bathroom spaces, closets, and maaaaaybe an entryway. But mirrors can be stunning as decor in any space. There are so many perks to decorating with mirrors, and can often be the cheaper solution when compared to other decorating options! I have never understood why, but […] Read more…
It is the big reveal of the New Year, New Room Refresh challenge! I am SO excited to share with you what a huge difference a 5 week refresh made on this teen bedroom. My daughter’s bedroom was never suppose to be a full makeover (thus the term “refresh”), but when changes like paint on a […] Read more…
Every time I look at this carpet I start singing “loaaaathing, unadulterated loathing”, from the broadway show ‘Wicked’. I can’t help it. THAT one line is exactly how I feel about this carpet…the ugliest carpet that ever there was. It is week 4 of the New Year, New Room Refresh challenge. And just to remind you […] Read more…
What would a 4 week design challenge be without a little drama, and a few late night projects you barely get finished in time? This is the 3rd week of the New Year New Room Refresh Challenge, and I might be in trouble this week ya’all. The carpet installers are coming on Wednesday, and I […] Read more…
Welcome to week 2 of the New Year New Room refresh challenge! In case you missed last week’s adventure, I joined in with an amazing group of bloggers who are all refreshing a room in 4 weeks.

Happy New Year! There is nothing quite like ringing in the new year by remodeling an entire room in 4 weeks. Haha. I don’t know. Seems like a totally fun, totally crazy thing to do. So when my good friend (and former contributor here on the blog!) Stephanie of Casa Watkins Living, invited me to […] Read more…
It is week 6 of the One Room Challenge and the big reveal of my Parisian inspired powder room! HA! It was more like a 2 week challenge since the first 4 weeks were seriously overbooked. Yes, smart…join a 6 week makeover challenge and then be too busy to do much of anything for the […] Read more…
Hahaha, that title is so misleading. The “final touches” of the half bath include removing the toilet in order to lay new flooring, adding molding, painting, and THEN the decorative touches. It is week 5 of the One Room Challenge, and next week is suppose to be the big reveal of the half bath / powder […] Read more…
If you have been following my Instagram stories, I know what must be thinking right now. “Ursula, that’s it? That’s all you’ve gotten accomplished in this many weeks?” Yep. It is week 4 out of 6 weeks to complete my powder room for the One Room Challenge, and I haven’t done much of anything. Guys, I […] Read more…
It is week 3 of the One Room Challenge, and I’ve finally started work on my powder room. Sure, wait until the ORC is halfway over before even getting started…yeah, that seems totally sane. In case you missed it, I shared the full before and backstory in week 1, and my inspiration for the powder […] Read more…
Oh people. I did a thing. I bobbed when I was suppose to weave, and got hit with the excitement of joining in the One Room Challenge. So while I was suppose to sit this one out (it’s going to be a VERY busy October), one morning in a rare uptake of impressive efficiency, I thought, I […] Read more…
