MY HOME + PROJECTS
With Halloween firmly behind us, I cleansed my home of anything spooky and pulled all the stops to welcome the fall season into our home. It feels nice to refresh and reset the house before the rush of Christmas arrives.

As a homebody, my bedroom has always been the spot in our home that I gravitate towards when I just need some time alone or just need to cozy up and relax for a while. Making this space feel cozy and inviting has always been my goal but with the daily activities of our family and just life in general, it was starting to feel like a forgotten space. So today I'm sharing how I've refreshed our bedroom with pieces that we already owned while getting rid of some that just didn't work for us.
Our dining room has always been a space that I've struggled to decorate because of different height of the walls and window placement. Over the years, I've tried different floor plans and decorating styles to make this space feel like it belongs to the rest of our home. Recently, I came up with a crazy idea - what if I hide the window that gives me so much trouble with a mirror?!
Come along as I share some updates to our moody living room where we hang out, watch TV, and work.
Come along as I take you around my home all decked out for Halloween! My process for decorating is to incorporate the decorations with my usual decor so it's never over the top. Just a little something here or there. It makes my Dollar Tree Halloween decorations look a little more high-end without me having to spend a ton!
Sharing some of my favorite items that I keep on my kitchen counters. Our home is open concept, meaning that the family room, dining room, and kitchen are all open to each other, so I've always been careful as to what I keep out on our counters to make sure that it doesn’t look too cluttered.
One of my resolutions for this year is to stay ahead in my planning for our home and family as well as making time for just me. Seems pretty simple enough but it's been almost a month into the new year and I'm still struggling. So I decided to make a simple change in our home - adding a desk behind our couch - that has made a world of difference in helping me accomplishing my goals.
Resetting my home after the holiday season is over is one of my favorite ways to breathe new life into our space. Although Christmas time is my favorite holiday of the year, by the time January rolls around I find myself longing for a fresh start.
Over the past year, I've been telling myself that I would tackle my home office this space whenever my husband went back to work. It's been well over a year now and I'm finally just tackling the space in just one weekend!
I've been working behind the scenes non-stop for the past couple of weeks giving our living room space a makeover. I'm so happy with how it turned out and today is the day I finally get to share it with you! I partnered with allModern to give this space a minimalist refresh while incorporating the modern traditionalist touches that I love. I've been itching to refresh this space to better fit in with our newly made over kitchen and dining room.
The time has come to give our living room a makeover!
It’s been a long time coming and I’m SO happy that the day is finally here. As you know, for the past couple of years I’ve been working on making over our kitchen and this year we finally were able to tackle our dining room. The living room was starting to feel out of place and I was itching to give this space a makeover so that it would flow well with our other two spaces.
One of the biggest updates that we’ve made to our home since moving in is adding 250 square feet of indoor living space by enclosing our lanai area. See how we’ve created a gameroom/playroom on a budget!
Come inside our newly made over bedroom and see how we got here! It’s been six years and a labor of love.
I’m super excited because this month I’m finally tackling our kids bathroom. Today I’m showing you all the details, including how I plan and budget for a room makeover. Come follow along!
Starting off the new year off on the right foot by setting some home goals and making a project list.
You guys, the day is finally here. The kitchen makeover is DONE! I started making over our kitchen back in February, working in between my little ones nap times and bed times. Four months later and I can finally say that this project is finished! Best of all, you won’t BELIEVE how much I spent in this transformation!
Hello there! I hope that your year is off to a great start. For me, it’s looking to be quite a busy year already!
It’s already the middle of the month in January and I’m just now getting to writing this. You see, being a stay at home mom to my two little ones is my first job. It’s a job that I adore and wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
I’m a mom of two and wife to a seriously supportive hubby, living our best life in our forever house by the preserve! I'm all about helping you create a stylish, pinterest-worthy home on a budget. Let's obsess over interior design, home decor, DIY, and home improvement projects to help you create your best home. Follow along and say hello! I love hearing from you.

Creating a dedicated family room has been a top priority for our growing family. When we first enclosed our lanai, I imagined a split layout: half home office for me, half playroom for our then three-year-old son. As our family grew, (we now have a nine-year-old son and six-year-old daughter!), the space quickly and happily evolved into a full-time family room/playroom. My dreams of a dedicated home office in that space were happily replaced with a fun, laughter-filled family for everyone to enjoy.
