When we first looked at our cabin, one of the first things we noticed were the uneven floors. My husband and I decided to investigate a fix, and what we ended up using is self-leveling concrete. I did a ton of research but we were nervous about doing this ourselves. It really was not that…
We have been working pretty dang hard over the last few months on our cabin bedroom, and we are finally done! I’m so happy to be sharing the cottage style bedroom makeover we just finished at our cabin! The Bones of the Cottage Style Bedroom The Before I think it is safe to say that…
I saw a bed on Pottery Barn’s website that I loved but was pretty out of budget for my cabin bedroom, but it seemed like it might be easy to dupe! I found a similar bed, a fabric I loved, and made pillow for the headboard. It was actually quite easy, if you have some…
Our cabin living room is officially finished, and the first room in the house that we have completed! I’m so excited to share it with you. We needed to purchase almost every single thing in this space, so I really had to make sure we went with affordable finds. This is post could also be…
To us, Christmas is not really about the presents. Its about spending time as a family. Our gifts are never all that extravagant, and there aren’t a ton of them. Since we don’t buy a ton of gifts, I always like to make sure those ones I do buy are really thoughtful! I spend quite…

My daughter and I saw a picture of someone’s Halloween Decor showing a giant spider decoration holding up a body caught in a web and we really wanted to recreate that! I ordered a giant spider on Amazon, and when it came it was somewhat underwhelming. We decided to beef it up a bit and…
We don’t have a designated guest room in our house, but rather a guest room-slash-office with a murphy bed. It is really a small space and even more so with the bed flipped down. But that does not mean it’s not a comfortable space! With the holidays just around the corner, I thought that I…
When designing our bar, I came across some images of antique and vintage delft style tiles, and fell in love! But then I started looking at how much they cost, and the price…. yikes! I asked my sister, who teaches ceramics at our local high school, and she thought we could probably make something ourselves….
I saw a Dementor (the guards of Azkaban Prison, from the popular Harry Potter series) for sale at a well known department store for $300! That, to me, is crazy for something you are only going to display for a couple of weeks. So my daughter and I decided to make a DIY Harry Potter…
