This is a sponsored post with Birch Lane.Sharing a fun post today...a family room refresh! This has been a project spurred by COVID-19 (I mean, who hasn't done a home project during the pandemic?!) Read on for all the details, and how I decorate the space for Christmas!When COVID first hit, Tyler and I decided to paint our eat-in kitchen area/family room (it's an open concept space). Previously, it was a khaki color and the wall with the TV was a deep cognac color. We opted for a light gray Read More
Outdoor Oasis: Patio and Deck Refresh & Design Inspiration
With all this time at home these days, we've been spending a LOT of time outside in our backyard. Our deck is one of my favorite places-- great for entertaining, relaxing and just enjoying some fresh air. Our deck is split into two levels, and we consider the top level our "lounge" area or outdoor living room, and the bottom level is more of the "dining room" if you will. Recently, my husband and I decided to put some time and effort into sprucing up our patio/deck area. He created a custom Read More
Blake’s 1st Birthday: A Very Hungry Caterpillar Party
And just like that...we have a one year old! Time has seriously flown by this past year (I've heard that is what happens with baby #2!), and we have a freshly minted 1 year old boy on our hands. I wanted to share photos of Blake's party and document the great day we had! We decided on a theme after ordering Blake's birthday cake at Costco (HIGHLY recommend, by the way). We saw a caterpillar decoration for the cake and T and I instantly thought we should go with the book, The Very Hungry Read More
Holiday Gift Idea // DIY Herb Compound Butter
Still looking for a gift for idea for your babysitter, neighbor or foodie friend? I’ve got you covered. I whipped up a batch of DIY Herb Compound Butter and let me tell you—it is GOOD stuff. Well, it is butter, so there’s that. But with the herbs and flavors in these two recipes, it definitely kicks it up a notch. I made two types: Garlic Herb and Pumpkin Spice. I’ve included the recipes below. We actually made these at a MOPS meeting a while back, so I don’t have the original source of the Read More
DIY Floating Bathroom Shelves // Or A Creative Way to Store that TP…
This post was sponsored by Charmin as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. We have a half bath off our kitchen. It’s great, but it has a pedestal sink and that’s about it…meaning not a lot of storage. I definitely needed some sort of cabinet to house all that bathroom stuff (towels, toilet paper, kleenex, etc.) At first, I was thinking of buying (or possibly building) an ornate cabinet or heck, even getting a new vanity altogether. But all I saw were dollar Read More
Girls Day // Board & Brush
My friends and I were looking for an activity for a girls day. We typically try to get together once a month or so and do something fun. So I suggested going to Board & Brush for a wood sign workshop since I had done one before when I was in Milwaukee and loved it. They have locations throughout the Midwest, a couple sprinkling the east coast and are continuing to expand. They take you through the entire process from raw materials to finished product and you walk away with a personalized Read More
What to Get for a Co-Ed Baby Shower // Drinks & Diaper Tiered Cake Tower
T and I recently received our first invite to a co-ed baby shower for our friends (they are expecting baby #2.) I was scratching my head on what to give as a gift beyond the standard case of beer and box of diapers. Since I love making tiered towers and did one as a housewarming gift, I figured I’d make one for the shower too, and it turned out SO cute! Here’s what I used…feel free to get creative and add things: -2 packs of diapers -6 pack beer (preferably one that is baby-related…T Read More
