Welcome to our home. Affectionately known as my canvas.
This blog was born after I decided to paint the kitchen. But the paint color clashed with the cabinets. So I painted those too. But then the painted walls and painted cabinets clashed with the ugly hunter green Formica counter tops. So I replaced them too …
But then the newly painted kitchen clashed with the living room. And dining room. And …
and …
and here we are now. With a blog chronicling my escapades. Moving from room-to-room. Wielding a paint brush and roller. As I give our home … my canvas … a diy refresh and remodel.
Here’s a tour of what I’ve completed thus far {just click on the room pictures for more details and pictures} …

I was looking for the white mantel that was pinned on pinterest.from your blog. Could you like me to it? I really like your blog. Thanks in advance
I’m not sure what white mantel that you are looking for. I don’t have any fireplaces in my home. Sometimes people pin things off of my sidebar where I show what I’ve been pinning. So sorry!
I’m so glad I found your blog. You have such a beautiful home and I can’t wait to follow along!
Thank you so much! You just made my day! 🙂
Hi there I am a new follower and I am in love with the great design job that you did on your home. Your blog is great! So glad that Kris introduced us. Jo from Anne’s Attic – design blog.

Thank you so much! You are officially my favorite comment of the week! 🙂
AHHHHH!!! I literally almost died while looking at your home tour!!! Especially your living room and bedrooms!! I LUV IT!!! You definitely have awesome style. And now i cannot get over your house, i think i will be obsessing over it for while, LOL!!! : )
I LOVE what you did to your daughters room! Hard to step back and let them do the designing, but the way you guys cooperated; you really did wing it!
Thanks so much! It was a good experience working together! 🙂
Your Leaded Glass Window DIY is the ONLY one I can find on the internet, your work is very truly one of a kind! Your instructions are also easy to follow along. I guess what surprised me was I didn’t see a link to purchase the window paint from whatever retailer, so you get a slight commission for your product advertisement? Maybe I missed the link though? You are very talented!
Thank you! I’ll have to go back to the post and add in some Amazon links. Thanks for your suggestion. When I wrote that post I wasn’t an Amazon affiliate.
