I just traveled down a long and winding rabbit hole on Pinterest to discover THE inspiration for how we’re hoping to rebuild our fireplace (see our current fireplace in my stories). This image from @barbasbellfires is pretty much exxxxactly what I imagined when I first stepped foot into this house when our realtor Kendra @doortodoordenver brought us here. If all goes according to plan today, Jason and some of our friends are going to tear out our current fireplace, and after we come back from vacation, finish the flooring and rebuild it to look more like this! 😍 // Obvi, I can’t wait and am doing happy dances all around our home... which is a demo zone everywhere you walk... which is why I’m still not posting new pics just yet. 😉 // Thank you for being patient with me while we take this ‘90s house and make it our dream home! // . . . . #showemyourdiy #fireplacemakeover #fireplaceinspo #modernfireplace #contemporaryfireplace #diyhome #handyhusband #maketimefordesign #mycrispcasa #mypinterest #inspiremeneutral #everydayIBT #copycatchic #peepmypad #myinspiredhouse #myabode #howwelive #diydesigntherapy #mymodernlook #diyrightnow #roomredo #interior_delux #howihaven #interiorandliving #mycreativeinterior #myhousebeautiful #beckiowensfeature #ispyraddesign #nesttoimpress #scandiboho
It’s Fridayyyyy and I’m excited because I’m sharing a pic from one of my fave girls on the ‘gram! Her name is Courtney, otherwise known as @girlandgrey, and not only is she nice; she’s also super creative, supportive, and fun to follow! Courtney is competing in the #oneroomchallenge, as am I, but we’re in diff categories. Thank God, because I wouldn’t want to go up against this powerhouse decorating chica 😃. Head to my stories to see some of my fave pics from Courtney’s feed, and go give her a follow for #followfriday 👏🏼💕. You’ll be glad you did! 😍 // . . . . #ikeahack #diyhomedecor #diyhome #diyhomeimprovement #hometrends #bohochicdecor #thenewbohemians #mybohoabode #interiorstyling #homewithrue #lonnyliving #bohemianmodern #hunkerhome #handmademodernhome #hometohave #dwellpow #howyouhome #simplystyleyourspace #modernhome #homebunch #therealhousesofig #eclectichome #adoremagazine #decorinspiration #blissfullyhome #showemyourstyled #showyourhomestyle #refinedrefuge
Today, I’m sharing my sweet friend Lea @creekwoodhill because I’m starting to feel like she and I are decorating sisters (from..other...misters...?). I def didn’t do that correctly. Anyways, Lea’s home is a beautiful mix of MCM, farmhouse, and old-world styles, and I love every bit of it. We both hate seeing pics of toilets in bathrooms lol (especially if the lid is up), have similar black molded dining chairs (swipe to see Lea’s previous dining setup and mine), and I recently realized that my vision board for the @oneroomchallenge is looking very similar to Lea’s new dining space updates (first pic and last pic). We are also both owners of cat+dog besties (whose colors happen to blend in nicely with our homes). Head over to Lea’s feed and give her a follow! There’s so much inspiration and animal cuteness over there! 🤗 // #onetofollow #orc #orcbhg #diningroomdecor #diningtable #diningchairs #diningroominspo #designcrush #oneroomchallenge #caneback #canechair #mcmchair #midcenturychair #modernglam #inspiremeneutral #neutraldoneright #doingneutralright #kitchensofinstagram #stylemepretty #earthinspiredhome #mymodernlook #housebeautifulhome #maketimefordesign #roomhints #mypinterest #everydayIBT #copycatchic #hunkerhome #handmademodernhome
One thing we’re planning to continue in the new house (but a little bit differently) is to bring in bold black accents. Our last house had lotssss of black in it (they say dress your home the way you like to dress yourself... and I’m pretty sure all of my fave outfits consist of either black skinny jeans or a black top). 🖤 Head to my stories to see why I’m not yet posting pics of the new house! 😂 // Are you team “add lots of black” or team “I love a white and bright home”? 🖤☀️🖤 // P.S. My husband is listening to country music. He’s not a country music guy... What is happening?! 😋 // . . . . . #designmadeeasy #howwelive #howihaven #diydesigntherapy #weekendproject #diyrightnow #roomredo #showemyourdiy #blackpaint #omysa #greatroom #livinganddining #roomhints #mycrispcasa #myhgtv #mypinterest #everydayIBT #copycatchic #lagommyhome #peepmypad #myinspiredhouse #solebich #myabode #ourfamilyabode #mymodernlook #mymidcenturymix #modernfarmhouse #modernfarmhousestyle #glamhome #modernglam
Ok, so we all remember this fabulous kitchen by @em_henderson, @bradytolbert, and team, right? It nearly broke IG and Pinterest. It’s gorgeous. I’m sharing it because I think this image somehow got lodged in the creative part of my brain, and now all I can think about is covering all that high-gloss 1990s oak in our new home’s kitchen with this shade of green. Funny coincidence: After searching through stacks and stacks of color cards from @sherwinwilliams, I selected Pewter Green. Then, just now as I was grabbing this pic to repost, I read that this is also Pewter Green. This color is meant to be in my kitchen! If you didn’t already know my fave color is green, you must’ve just started following me 😉 ...Scroll down in my feed to see where I’ve used bold green statements in my old house. 💚 // Swipe over to see my concept board, which includes what I’d like to do in the dining nook as well. You’ll also see some “before” and “current” pics. My spin on this kitchen is that I’m going to bring in touches that are a little less modern and a little more old-world-glam (although we’re keeping our old bar stools because new ones are out of our budget)😉. We’re going to do this on a total DIY budget since a new kitchen is not within range for us in 2019. What *is* brand new (and still being installed) is the gorgeous flooring from @hursthardwoods 🙌🏼. It’s a super wide plank (10” W!) French oak engineered locking hardwood in Blue Ridge. I’ll take better pics with my Nikon once the kitchen is camera-ready, but you can see it in the progress pics. We absolutely LOVE it. I’m posting this concept board as my first-ever @oneroomchallenge entry! Woo hoo! 🖤 // . . . . . #orc #bhgorc #oneroomchallenge #bhgstylemaker #mybhg #whiteoakfloors #wideplank #showemyourdiy #oldworld #greenkitchen #greenpaint #myhouzz #antiquemodern #kitchenhacks #budgetkitchen #diykitchenremodel #diykitchen #diyhome #myhgtv #mypinterest #carpendaughterpeepmyreno #earthinspiredhome #diydesigntherapy #everydayIBT #designmadeeasy #howwelive #howihaven #copycatchic #diyrightnow #roomredo
💭uNaPoLoGeTiC rAnT💭: If you’ve been a follower for a while and you haven’t unfollowed because of my sporadic posting schedule the past couple of months, thank you for sticking with me! You’re all amazing! 👏🏼💕 If you’re new to my feed, I’d first like to say welcome(!!), love having you (!), and second, here are some things you should know: We had our first baby three months ago, I went back to work after a seven-week maternity leave (although I still did a little work during that time), and at the end of that maternity leave, we bought a house, moved, and are beginning renovations. We have a lot going on, so I’m not posting every day, but if you stick with me, I promise you’re going to see some awesome transformations! We can’t wait to show you what we have up our sleeves with this new house! As for those of you who unfollowed because I’ve gone a few days here and there without posting, if you’re seeing this pic and are still reading this caption, all I’m going to say is that most days, I get 30 minute breaks where I’m not holding/feeding/bouncing the baby. During those 30 minute spurts, my options are: 1) Eat breakfast (or lunch), 2) respond to all the emails I see piling up on my notifications screen on my phone, 3) work on a client’s decorating plan/e-styling package, 4) unpack some boxes/try to organize the house a little, or 5) post something and engage with everyone I care about on IG. Speaking of IG engagement, have any other home decor accounts out there noticed something fishy going on? The latest update is doing something that prevents the majority of our followers from even *seeing* our posts. I know I’ve chatted with a few of you about it privately. Anyone else? Any ideas for what can be done to get back to the # of impressions we had before? // . . . #kitchenremodel #kitchenrenovation #dwell #makehomeyours #brightlightinterior #showemyourdiy #myhgtv #hgtvhome #mypinterest #inspiremeneutral #peepmypad #myinspiredhouse #carpendaughterpeepmyreno #myabode #ourfamilyabode #designmadeeasy #howwelive #diydesigntherapy #diyrightnow #roomredo #rshome #mybhg #90shouse #hursthardwood #wideplank#whiteoakfloors #heyhomehey #makehomematter #makehomeyourhaven
