    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!  If you are a new visitor, welcome and feel free to check out…

    Rustic Wall Decor with Farmhouse Beads

    Hi everyone and welcome back.  As promised, today we are going to make a rustic wall hanging using farmhouse beads.  For a complete farmhouse bead tutorial, click here. Supplies To make your own rustic wall decor, you will need a wooden word, I chose “Blessed”.  You will also need a bead strand and a pompon garland.  I found this garland at Michaels.     You will also need a rustic window frame like this one:     I used a window frame that I bought a few years ago and had been using as decor on our back porch, but I found some similar ones here and here. Preparation You…

    Dining Room Renovation – Painting – Week 2 – ORC

      Welcome back!  If you are just joining us for the One Room Challenge, you can check out our plans here.  This week was painting week for us and the paint colors didn’t exactly go as planned, but in home renovation isn’t that usually the case! If you remember, the Chinese Porcelain color from PPG Paints is my inspiration for our room.  So with such a rich wall color, I wanted a neutral for the ceiling.  I chose Alpaca. It’s a beautiful warm grey from Sherwin Williams and I have used it in other rooms in our home. I thought it would be the perfect paint color for the dining…

“Our new normal.” Like so many of you I am so “Our new normal.” Like so many of you I am so tired of hearing that phrase.  I just want our actual normal back. I want my son to be allowed to high-five his tennis doubles partner. I want my daughter’s gymnastics meets to allow spectators. And I want to hug my mom!  But one thing from this “no where close to normal” time that we are all living in I plan to keep is this #ad automatic soap:hand sanitizer dispenser gifted to me by @uniquetechus.  I installed it by the laundry room sink, which is right by the door our family uses most frequently. It has been great to be able to wash up just steps into the house. Even after the COVID protocols are a distant memory, this will be perfect for washing up coming in from the yard or garage. So while I’m so ready for all of the COVID requirements to go away, I will happily keep this touchless soap dispenser long term. As a New Year’s special, you can use the code 10Crystals for 10% off when you order from Amazon during January!  The link is in my bio. Thank you so much @uniquetechus. Now I just need a touchless faucet to go with it. #uniquetech #newnormal #newnormal2021 #touchlessdispenser #laundryroom #handsfree #laundrysink #bhghome #necessaryandbeautiful #functionaldecor #gifted #cleanhome #cleanhomehappyhome #cleanhomehappymom #currenthomeview #makemyhome #cleanhomeisahappyhome

Don’t you just love seeing a big package on your Don’t you just love seeing a big package on your front porch?  And it’s even better when that package is from @downlitebedding! 

I have searched for years for a pillow that lets me sleep comfortably through the night so when #downlitebedding offered me a couple of their pillows to try I jumped at the chance.  I have been using one of these pillows for a couple of weeks now and I couldn’t be happier!

Everyone in our family tried them out and we all love them.  My teenaged son, who generally isn’t picky about his pillow at all, asked if he could keep one because he liked it better than any pillow he had used before.

The pillows we were gifted are the Jumbo Moisture Wicking, but they also have lots of other wonderful items and you can use the code DYGEN15 to get 15% off everything at Downlite Bedding Company right now!

I finally got to finish my Christmas tablescape! I finally got to finish my Christmas tablescape!  I’m sure a Christmas girl, but I wait until after Thanksgiving to decorate my dining room for Christmas.  I’m so happy to have gotten it finished.  When do you start decorating, and when do you feel wayyy behind if you aren’t finished?  Tomorrow I plan to show you a new Christmas DIY, I can’t wait.  Christmas DIY.  This is definitely my favorite time of the year to decorate!  #bdsdaily91e #redandwhitechristmas #redwhiteandgreenchristmas #seasonalstyle #christmassneakpeek #christmasdecorating #christmas2020 #christmastablescape #christmastablescapes #santaclauseiscomingtotown #sleighride #Lenox #redandgoldchristmas #diningroomdecor #diningroomchristmasdecor

It’s beginning to look more and more like Christ It’s beginning to look more and more like Christmas at our home, and we are all loving our new Christmas tree collar from Hallops Home Decor!  The farmhouse look is enhanced by the rust-look edges, and though our cat loves checking it out, it is keeping Yoshi away from the base of the tree so he hasn’t tried climbing the tree even once!! Win-Win.
