After lots of planning, this couch finally came together. To be honest, when it was just a frame, I wasn’t completely confident it would turn out, but as soon as I assembled it, those fears disappeared. As I mentioned in previous posts, I designed this sectional in four pieces so it can go together easily,Continue reading “DIY Sectional Part 3”

DIY Sectional Part 2
After building the wood couch frame, this project immediately took a turn into the “stuff I’ve never done before” category. That was exciting and scary all at once to me. On the one hand, I was diving head first into the world of upholstery with a huge project. On the other hand, I spent aContinue reading “DIY Sectional Part 2”
DIY Sectional Part 1
First post of 2022. This year has kicked off to a wild start. I’ve still been busy building, and actually I think this might be my biggest project ever…I’m building a custom sectional. We had talked about getting a sectional well over a year ago but with supply chain delays and low inventory, we mightContinue reading “DIY Sectional Part 1”
Making an Arch
It’s hard for me to describe my preferred interior design style. I think it’s a mix of Mid Century boho meets old world Spanish cottage. That being said, I have always loved archways in architecture. As soon as it became popular to convert regular openings into archways, I knew I wanted to do this inContinue reading “Making an Arch”
Primary Bedroom Makeover Pt. 2
Let’s talk closets. After all this closet makeover was my favorite winter project of 2021, and it definitely deserves its own blog post. (P.S. Primary Bedroom Makeover Pt. 1 is just as exciting, here.) I’ve shared many times that I’m not the most organized person, but the start of a new year is a goodContinue reading “Primary Bedroom Makeover Pt. 2”
Primary Bedroom Makeover Pt. 1
This weekend, I finally finished the last piece on a year long bedroom makeover project. The final 5% if you will. When I started working on projects in our primary bedroom, I didn’t intend on it being a complete makeover. Once one area is upgraded it becomes really easy to want to change the rest.Continue reading “Primary Bedroom Makeover Pt. 1”
Organizational DIYs
Clutter. We all have it. It’s pesky and in the way, and often makes us feel like we’re way less put together than we often are. I have my own thoughts about messes, and how society feels about messes which you can read more about here. Nevertheless, it is helpful to have a few organizationalContinue reading “Organizational DIYs”
Nightstand Builds
Changing out generic store bought furniture pieces for handmade pieces is one of my favorite ways to add personality to my home. It not only shows your style & personality, but your care & attention for the details in your space. Last fall, I started transforming our primary bedroom with some new paint, a woodContinue reading “Nightstand Builds”
Small Scale DIYs
You might have noticed that recently I’ve taken a step back from large or whole room projects. While there’s a part of me that always needs to be creating, and always has ideas flowing, there’s also a part of me that knew I needed a break. The big builds are a blast, but they alsoContinue reading “Small Scale DIYs”
DIY Hanging Clay Planters
I’ve shared before that a lot of my DIY love & roots come from crafting growing up. My sisters & I would spend hours at our craft table in the basement making messes with various mediums. Our parents were a big part of our growing creativity. This week, I decided to go back to thoseContinue reading “DIY Hanging Clay Planters”
