Alright, friends. We're on week two of our little laundry room makeover. We made lots of progress in this space & I'm excited to show you guys how things turned out in here! This week, we added a few elements in this space to create a functional laundry room for our home. In case you missed part one, check it out here to get caught up.

Vertical Shiplap & Pegrail DIY
Turning lemons into lemonade? That's what I've been trying to do this past week. With the instructions to stay home as much as possible, Eli and I have been taking it as an opportunity to work on a few home improvement projects. This weekends' project? A vertical shiplap and pegrail DIY. For a few months now, I've had this particular project on my mind. I've been excited to tackle it but just haven't quite found the time until last weekend. I was antsy to get started! I've seen this ...
Indoor Plants for Beginners
I have to admit - I'm not the best plant lady. It's a skill I'm working on as I get older but it's not something that has come very easily to me. Having a green thumb is a work in progress for sure!

Let's just say, I've killed a whole lot of ...
Best Woven Trays for a Coffee Table
A home decor piece that I'm loving right now? Woven trays. I love how versatile they are and how you can use them in basically any room in the house.

There are so many shapes, sizes and colors to choose from so I hope this is helpful if you have a space in mind for one of these cuties. ...
How To Make Your Own Candles
It's been almost three years since Eli and I got married, which blows my mind! As a creative, decorating for my wedding was honestly so much fun to me and I loved coming up with ideas to make our big day "us". One of my favorite things that I did for our wedding was make candles as the wedding favors for our guests. I made a few at a time on the weekends leading up to our wedding & I've actually continued making my own after our wedding was over. Making candles is a fun way to get ...
Timeless and Beautiful Minwax Stain Mixture on Red Oak
If you've been here for awhile, you know I have a love for painted things. That includes - trim, doors, and furniture. There's one spot in our house that we actually decided to stain. That spot is the railing and posts on the stairway in our foyer. I used a Minwax stain mixture to get the perfect color on the wooden elements in this space! I wanted the posts and railing to match the flooring that we chose in our home. If we had traditionally stained hardwood flooring, we would be able to ...
