The Evolutions of A Living Room
First it was a sitting room (really? Are we going to go a’court’in?), then it was an office, then it became a secret guest room hidden in a living room…ok, this space was kicking my butt. Sure, I managed to put it to some practical use over the years, but honestly it just never seemed to come together… […]

Basement Remodel: From Scary to Stunning
*This post is sponsored by The Home Depot (who I’m convinced is my fairy godmother) Â I’ve never loved the idea of a basement, they are dark, damp, and cold. Plus I’m convinced the boogie monster (aka the mice) have overrun mine. Worst, our basement became kind of the catch-all for miscellaneous items we didn’t […]
The White Winter Bed & Bath Refresh
I don’t know about where you live, but there is TONS of snow on the ground where I am. Living in the snow belt of Northeast Ohio isn’t all ski trips and sledding, it is snow blowing your driveway at 6AM in the morning so you can make it out the drive to go to work. That […]
