Like I anticipated, not everything on my list is finished yet. I guess that just shows me that I need more than 6 weeks to do a room, depending on what projects are involved (like painting cabinets which take f.o.r.e.v.e.r. for this homeschooling mom). BUT, I want to tell you all about my table spreadContinue reading “ORC: Dining Room Final Reveal (Kitchen Coming Soon!)”

Week 5 One Room Challenge: If Only I Was Mary Poppins
If I’m honest, I am nowhere where I wanted to be with this room challenge. I likely won’t get everything done that was on my list in time and I think I need to just accept that and keep doing what I can.

DIY Deliciously Shabby Chic Pink Dresser
I scored this cute (well, at first not so cute) little dresser for $10 on Craigslist. It looked like the perfect thing for me to give a new look for my daughters room.

I Ripped Out My Kitchen Island: Adventures in Minimalism
Maybe you have a kitchen island and you love it and can’t imagine life without it. I, however, HATED mine. Our house is a little quirky and I think the layout is odd.
