Two holiday seasons ago, our fireplace was brand spanking new and we were in the middle of larger renovations. I set out to create a beautiful Christmas DIY mantel garland and create some beauty among the chaos. I got a lot of questions about how I did it, as I didn’t buy any of the…
Every time I show my bedroom, I get a question or two about the art in there, in particular the grid-style gallery wall with chains. How the heck did I hang that? The answer is, that the wall art is on a picture rail molding. I have used picture rail a few times, so I…
We are about to start a new project wheeeeeeeee!!! Gosh, I’m excited. The last big project we finished was the ensuite bathroom, and it was a doozy so we took a little time off to rest. Well, we didn’t really rest, I did a few projects for my mom (her kitchen refresh, recovering some stools),…
The last few years we have been deep into a renovation in the fall and haven’t done much in terms of seasonal decorating. When my kids were little, we were always very into Halloween décor. I decided to try my hand at a few seasonal crafts and it morphed into a whole Harry Potter-themed Halloween…

My mom has a kitchen that was built in the early 2000s and it is very nice, but it’s about 20 years old now and it’s starting to look a little dated. I had a little tile left over from my bathroom renovation, and I asked her if she would like me to redo her…
In my mom’s kitchen refresh, I wanted to give her some updated stools but she didn’t want to spend very much on the upgrade. I found some inexpensive stools from Amazon with one problem – they had an upholstered seat that didn’t really go well with the overall design scheme. That is not a…
