One Room Challenge – Warm, Cozy Dining Room Reveal
This week we finished the One Room Challenge® for our warm and cozy dining room. Who is ready for the reveal and some before and after photos? I can’t believe we have already arrived at the end of this season’s One Room Challenge®. I had such a fabulous time that I am already planning which room I will renovate for the spring event. I also learned so much from the other designers and I really enjoyed following along with their renovations. If you have followed along with me for the last 6 weeks, thank you so much!

How to Create a Winter Themed Hot Chocolate Bar
Now that Christmas has come and gone we are often left with the question of how to decorate until spring. It’s not quite time to break out the Easter decor, and it’s still really cold in most of the country, so I decided this year to decorate some areas of my home with a snowy winter white. Today we will look at how I changed out the wine cart to a winter white hot cocoa bar. Since the budget is not unlimited, I tried to reuse items where I could.
