Christmas Porch 2018
After a 3:00 am wake-up call and 9 hours of hopping onto three different planes, I arrived safely home from my excursion to Montana. It was a great trip and I’ll be sharing all about it and the HGTV Dream Home soon. But today, I’m going to share the Christmas decorations I added to my porch […]
Christmas Butler’s Pantry
I gave the butler’s pantry a makeover this summer, so this is the first time I get to decorate it for Christmas! It’s a small thing, but I was excited about it none-the-less. With that rich, green color, it’s just begging to be decorated for Christmas. And, I kept the Christmas decor very simple. I […]
Montauk Blue Slate Tile in the Foyer
The tile in the foyer is finished and we are one step closer to having the foyer and powder room makeovers complete! So, there is still more to do before a reveal, but I thought I would share how this space is looking currently and also the details on the Montauk blue slate tile as […]

Let me start off by saying this was supposed to be a tutorial, but it won’t be. The reason is that I mindlessly deleted all of the process photos!! Ah! I try to keep my camera card “uncluttered”, so I delete all files once they are uploaded. Well, I got a little overenthusiastic in my […]

The Mercantile in Knightdale
I spent Thanksgiving in Raleigh, NC, visiting Jeff’s family. The days were mostly filled with relaxing and visiting, but I did take advantage of my close proximity to one of my MMS Milk Paint retailers (In Sweet Time at The Mercantile in Knightdale, NC) and I spent an evening teaching a milk paint demo and signing […]
