What a fun February I’ve been having! Usually it’s the worst month to get through, but the hustle and bustle around here has been keeping me busy! I’ve been crazy busy at work and plugging away at the blog early in the morning and late at night! I’ve even found some time for having a life! Check it out:
It’s February—dreary, wintry February. All I can think about is summer: vacation, planting a garden…any thoughts of green or warmth just make me want to burst! So, I thought to cheer things up I’d share about my sister’s sweet baby shower that my mom and I hosted a few months back. The theme: you are my sunshine, my only sunshine!
An adorable addition to my style series is coming up today! Let’s talk about how to create a cottage style look in your home. My aunt has recently moved and while we were brainstorming some ideas on how to create this look in her home, I decided to share some of my ideas with you. The cottage style is very diverse. It’s actually quite similar to the shabby chic style. But there are certain elements that carry through no matter what direction you choose to go.
I know, I know, it’s been done a million times! But despite the amount of pins on my Pinterest boards, I rarely end up successfully completing a project. Today I’m going to share my experience and success with whitewashing my fireplace! I’m beyond thrilled with the results and am considering ‘blackwashing’ my basement fireplace this year. I’m not convinced that blackwashing is a thing yet, but after I give it a try, maybe it will be! [Update: I found out it’s a thing, and you should check out my tutorial on how to blackwash your brick fireplace!]
Alright, it’s confession time…
I haven’t been posting about what’s going on with me because, well, I’ve been so busy! Today is going to be like one of those days that you call an old friend and catch up on everything. I swear we’ll keep in touch better—we say it every time. So, let’s get to catching up!
