Everyone’s posting Christmas decor photos and I’m all over here thinking about boys bedrooms instead.  Now that we are done switching everyone’s rooms around, it’s going to be time to make their rooms their own.  A few years ago we created a cute little boys room with a barnwood reading nook.   Last spring this room

It’s officially boots, mittens and snow pants season here in Minnesota and my  mudroom/laundry room has become an obstacle course.  Everyday when I try to make my way into the laundry room I have to step over shoes, coats and hats while balancing a laundry basket in my hands.  Most days I am successful but

It’s that time of year, when the Christmas home tours are hopping and inspiration is abounding on the web for holiday decorating!  Truth be told, I’m not much for holiday decorating, Christmas is the biggest one I decorate for but besides that, I just have a hard time getting into it.  I thought it would

This week I don’t have much progress so let’s talk about bathroom hardware and lighting.  I’ve been searching the internet for weeks trying to find cheap hardware that was also brass and didn’t look like it was from my grandma’s kitchen.  I had my heart set on this one from myknobs.com and also I think it’s

Week 3, halfway through the challenge and I think we’re doing well so far.  You can catch up here on week 1 and week 2.   I’ve been without a toilet for over 2 weeks now and thankfully, I can pee in my own bathroom again.  I know, first word problem but seriously, marching down the hall trying not
