The very minute I put the roller of paint saturated with Valspar’s Quail Egg onto the wall and watched the paint fill the textured grooves I felt at peace. As I shared yesterday this room has gone through so many changes. In order to create a space that truly felt serene I only left the bits that I truly loved. Here are how all of the elements of the neutrals inspired bedroom makeover came together.
This shabby chic inspired bedroom. Wow. So many changes. The walls have been painted 4 different colors. Every time I decorated it, I immediately wanted to change it and that should have been my first clue my style was evolving and moving in a completely different direction.
We’ve heard it said so many times shop your house first to give your spaces a fresh look. I wasn’t sure that was always possible but in the past few weeks, I’ve been completely amazed at the “free” transformation. This bathroom makeover is no exception.
When I was creating a summer inspired front porch, I kept thinking about World War II. Something about the way everyone banded together for a common cause makes me feel really blessed. I know there were overwhelming sacrifices. Victory gardens, flour sacks, simple ticking, using things I already had at home and strengthening friendships became my inspiration.
After a spring season where the dining room table was set with pastels, eggs and bunny plates, I’m ready for my summer inspired dining space to feel relaxed and uncluttered.
While I was changing out spring décor for summer décor in the living room, I started thinking about how to create an easy summer tablescape in the kitchen. I’m in love with the cabin inspired summer mantle so I wanted to play off that inspiration with an easy summer tablescape.
Every year, my parents would let us go to sleep away camp. I never forgot those carefree days of hiking, horseback riding, crafting and swimming in the lake. These fun filled memories became the motivation for the cabin inspired summer mantel.
We were in the middle of the porch and patio makeovers when I realized we were going to have to get creative with furniture placement. Here’s a look at how we shopped our house and updated the front porch.
We’ve been working on this backyard patio makeover reveal for weeks. I wanted to create a space that felt relaxed and comfortable. An outdoor extension to the indoor living spaces that was a place to laugh, unwind, eat, host parties and grill out.
I’m going to show you something I’ve never shown you before…ever…my kitchen. This expansive space is the home of Christmas cookie parties, brownie batter spoon licking contests, comfort food meal preparation and Saturday mornings spent at the conversation bar. It’s being prepped for a little makeover.
