    One Room Challenge Week One: Basement Junk Room-To-Teen Bonus Room

     

    Hello everyone! Well, I’m going off the rails on a crazy train…I am joining the Spring One Room Challenge! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist the Ozzy reference, as I have been hearing the “Crazy Train” guitar riff all through the house for the past several days!) When my 14 year-old got an electric guitar for his birthday last week, we decided it was time to turn the unused room in our basement into a bonus room and teen hangout. He and his friends like to play guitar and video games, and the little room in our basement will be perfect. I am a little nervous about redoing a room in six weeks, but my husband is on board, so here we go!

    Hello dear friends! Today I am sharing some ideas for repurposing a vintage piece of furniture into a beautiful sink vanity. I was inspired to write this post after repainting a little vintage cabinet this weekend, and I wanted to share the before and after. I purchased the cabinet at a yard sale for $40.00 a couple of years ago but I have never found a spot for it. I was going to sell it since it was just taking up space in the basement, but as I was looking at it a few days ago I had a “eureka!” moment. We are planning to build a small bathroom addition in the next couple of years and I think the cabinet would make an adorable sink vanity. *This post contains affiliate links. Read more

    New Fall Landscaping

    New Fall Landscaping With Plants and shrubs from Lowe's

     

    Happy Saturday friends! Fall is the perfect time to get the lawn and garden cleaned up and ready for winter. It is also a great time to plant new  trees, evergreen shrubs and perennials.  This past week my husband did some much needed work on our landscaping which included digging up some old established and crowded bushes and finding new spots for them. He also planted some new trees and shrubs and prepared to make a new path on the side of our house. Here are some ideas for fall landscaping. Remember, if you aren’t a DIY gardener, you can always get help from with a local tree care company or landscaper. Read more
