Happy Friday, y’all! I have to show you an update of our latest project! Awhile back, I found a few pictures of these old wooden wire spools … I thought, ‘oh baby, that has my name written all over it.’ I found one online and came so close to buying it, but then life got busy… Continue reading Refurbished: Wooden Spool
We moved into this new house last June and promptly started renovating everything in July. We have been here now for 9 months, completed a ton of projects, and are still plugging along. Overall the experience has been largely positive. I understand that DIY is not for everyone, but Andrew and I are having a great time working… Continue reading Before & After: A Full Home Progress Update

I think he gets it from me.) The sewing bug has hit! Things have slowed down now that… Continue reading Weekend Recap!

We had ZERO storage space at our house in Chattanooga, and everything just seemed to pile up on the end of the kitchen table. While there is a separate laundry room in our new house, it’s not close enough to the… Continue reading How To: Fake a Mudroom
