 Ever since I can remember, from even a wee little kid, I’ve always loved to frame photos, art, memorabilia, you name it! It’s a way to hang on to special memories, occasions, loved ones, without keeping that memory in a box, and instead on your walls! When I came acro...

It isn't often when I can make drastic changes to our rental town home that actually make a difference! People may think that painting, switching out flooring, etc., are ways that can REALLY make an impact, but I strongly think your lighting choice can have a LOT of sa...

Something I have been dreaming about post wedding is creating a gallerywall of some of the favorite shots from our big day! Okay, this did take me 5.5 months to finish.... but I have a worthy enough reason. 

I planned out that I would ask for twelve picture frames for C...

Sleep. It had been a LONG time since my husband and I got any kind of REM sleep. I'm talking months....and even before that - it was never enough. We really blame our old mattress. That thing was showing age in so many ways, squeaky, springs bent out of shape, worn dow...

If you are a renter like me, or you don't want to fork over the big bucks just yet for REAL backsplash, you have landed yourself in the right spot. Our town-house kitchen is the farthest thing from "trendy", and just straight-up bland. The only thing we might have goin...

If you're like me, you can't have enough candles. I'm talking a few for every room. I'm also a bit picky when it comes to scents, and when, just when I find a favorite, I get super sad when it gets down to the end of the wax. Scents are everything, and when I know a fa...

I've learned my lesson around the holidays: don't procrastinate holiday shopping. Seriously just don't do it. You end up with gifts that aren't personal and gifts that the person probably won't love or have use for. Plus, who wants to scramble around last minute trying...

It’s not every day that I want to talk about watches. However, this wooden watch is worthy enough to ramble on about! JORD reached out to me & gave me a watch to review, and I jumped on the opportunity. You guys, two words: WOOD WATCHES. After wearing mine, do you know...

There's always something to decorate. Like things for the wall, or in this case, for these shelves. I don't really love these shelves... but they will work for the meantime. Prior to fixing up the guest room, these shelves had all bobbleheads consisting of Dayton Drago...
