This is a week of chaos so I thought I would re-share this unique jewelry display. I am hoping to work on some smaller versions soon too…. (As a side note, isn’t it a bit amusing that I was…
Makeovers
A quick desk redo for my daughter came to a screeching halt when she had to find handles. You'll never believe what we chose for truly unique drawer pulls.…
I have a friend who recently moved into a new apartment. A sectional couch in the small living room left limited space to place a lamp. The solution was to build a narrow sofa table with a modern look…
This week I am working on catching up on life. I have quite a few “balls in the air” and am mid-project on at least three things. As I finish up, have a look at this dresser refresh from…
…and final reveal of the completed boy’s bedroom!! Whew! That took longer than it should have. I mostly finished the room ages ago, but I wanted to add this ONE MORE THING…and of course the thing I needed for…
As I was working on the boy bedroom refresh for Jack, I started thinking about how to decorate around the gamer theme. A pillow on his lounge sofa might be fun! A quick search on Amazon didn’t turn up…
Chapter 4 in the boy bedroom refresh series is a DIY headboard. This post is also part of the Build it For the Home Series with At Home DIY. (All the other projects from the participating bloggers are linked…

Our closet is in the master bathroom. It’s a walk in, though rather small. My guess has always been that it was a custom buildout when the house was rebuilt after burning down in the early 90s. The configuration…
This looks like a much quicker project than it was. I love working with designers and decorators to help clients update pieces. This painted dining set was one of my favorites. I am only sorry I don’t have shots…
Being home with “social-distancing” is reminding me of the parts of the house I would very much like to update. I am a big fan of painting steps and not a huge fan of golden oak. After looking at…
We have lived here for 6 years. I have talked about the boring front door for all of them. Our new normal of forced “Social Distancing” seemed like a good a time as any to get a “new” painted…
I find a lingerie chest underrated. They are a great place to store jewelry and unmentionables, don’t take up a lot of room, and can be quite attractive. Updating them doesn’t have to be difficult. Here is how you…
