If you’ve hung out for me for awhile you know my family lives and breathes home remodeling.

One Room Challenge Week #1: Family Room Makeover!
There is nothing like a Challenge to kick one’s butt into gear.

BIG REVEAL! Update a Builder Basic Bathroom
The antithesis of a Pinterest worthy bathroom is the infamous “Builder Basic” bathroom. There is nothing non-functional about the Builder Basic Bathroom. It is just a bit…boring.

Recently I just completed a Postbox for a young couple, getting ready to move from their starter house into a new (to them) house.

DIY Island Tutorial: Navy & Brass Beauty
I love a good kitchen. I’ve been a kitchen and bath designer for the last decade, so when a Postbox client comes around needing help with their kitchen, I get a little giddy. Currently I’m working on two different kitchens for clients, totally different looks (I’ll share soon with y’all!), but it inspired me to [ Read More… ] …
