1 YEAR BLOG-IVERSARY! | OUR YEAR IN REVIEW
We officially celebrated our 1 year “blog-iversary” this month! Hard to believe we’ve been documenting our house projects for a whole year, but at the same time it feels like a decade’s worth of things of changed since July 2019. The world looks a whole lot different than it did last summer! Let’s take trip…
DIY GIANT PEGBOARD WALL SHELF
I swear to you guys- when I told Tyler I wanted to hang a pegboard over the dresser in the nursery he looked at me like I’d finally lost my baby brain marbles. He doesn’t spend much time on Pinterest except to look at garage things, so I’m sure he was picturing a standard shop…
A FEW MINI NURSERY PROJECTS
We have been keeping busy with lots of mini projects in the nursery! Now that we’re super close to finishing up, I thought I’d update here. If I don’t, my nursery room tour post might be 6 years long and who really wants to hear about our outlet choices during a room tour?? First up…
5 NORWEX PRODUCTS WORTH BUYING (AN HONEST REVIEW)
Our house is way overdue for cleaning, so I thought I’d bring you along with me today! The MVP on my cleaning days is Norwex. Look out, here comes a disclaimer… We’re simple people. I’m not a saleswoman. In fact, selling anything for anyone is ranked pretty high up on my list of worst nightmares….

Choosing a paint color for a room is one of the hardest parts of redecorating. We picked up dozens of teal paint swatches for the new nursery to compare to my nursery “mood board”. Comparing a color online vs. on a chip vs. on the wall and then vs. the whole painted wall in various…
DIY MODERN GEOMETRIC FLOOR LAMP FOR THE NURSERY
If you saw our last post about nursery inspiration, you’ll remember the mood board I made for Baby #2’s nursery. Gracing this mood board was an exceptionally beautiful tripod lamp from Target. It was everything I wanted except for the fact that it was expensive… too expensive for our nursery budget. I mean- it was…
HOW WE’RE PLANNING THE NEW NURSERY + INSPIRATION PICTURES
While I’m sitting here in the nursery staring at four different paint swatches on the wall, I thought it’d be fun to share our nursery planning process. I’ve been allll over the place deciding on a theme for the new room. For C’s room, I knew exactly what I wanted to do right away. This…
C’S TRANSPORTATION THEMED TODDLER ROOM TOUR
Here we are again! It seems like we just decorated C’s woodland themed nursery. C turned two in March and, yeah, I’m still reeling over it! Baby boys grow into toddler guys and now it’s all about planes, trains, and automobiles! C has been fascinated by trains for quite some time now. He will line…
CREEK BRIDGE DESIGN AND BATTLING INVASIVE BUSH HONEYSUCKLE
Spring rains are upon us here in Missouri. Everyday this week has been misty and muggy. Weeds are thriving right now, and I know we complain about our unwanted plants a lot, but the worst of them all are the invasive bush honeysuckle. If you live on basically any continent that’s not Asia, you’ve seen…
