I must admit that I’m a lazy DIY-er. I’m always excited to start a project but I want to skip to the fun part, I don’t want to clean/sand/prime first (anyone else have this problem?). So when I started reading about how to Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, and the fact that it sticks to anything…
I love LOVE Pottery Barn, if I could just move into one of their catalogs I would (except that my children’s barbies and legos would look totally out of place)! The nautical rope mirrors they featured this summer were amazing and I liked how they had art displayed with rope and dock cleats. I was…
If you ever see a broken down pallet on the side of the road grab it! I know this is hardly news, especially if you have been on Pinterest lately (or every waking moment like me). I saw a sign similar to this one on Pinterest a while back but it was a on a…
It’s been a few years since we’ve talked paint colors! I was looking back through my old posts and I realized my Lake House Paint Colors post was missing a lot of my new paint projects. I still love our original lake house interior colors, but you know I love to change things up. Not…

SO much snow that we had to road trip home from Nashville because our flight to O’Hare was canceled. As usual Michigan has its own ideas about springtime, and I’ll be captive inside a little longer….
Hey guys! Welcome to another Friday Feels where I share what I’m “feeling” this week. This week I’m feeling worn out! Since I’ve been spending so much time working on outside projects, I’ve basically fallen into bed every night unable to move my limbs. Which calls for recovery Netflix binge watching, wine and popcorn. Thankfully,…
I’m still in the midst of all my staining projects… seriously, I could use some Tom Sawyer persuasion skills to get someone to take over this fence project from me! Any takers? No? Here’s a little tip from me to you, don’t wear jeans with holes in the knees when you stain. I was so…
