Primary Bathroom Before and After | Color Edition
This post was sponsored by Build with Ferguson, who I have used for years and love. All thoughts and opinions are my own. This is my dream bathroom. When most people say that, it just means ideal. But when I say it, I not only mean how ideal it was, but how I experienced it like a dream. ...

One Room Challenge: Week 6 – The Scary Part
Dear friends, this was not an easy week. I did some scary things this week—like that scene in Signs where the alien walks across the screen and you have to call your Mom and say you have a stomach ache which is your code word for leaving parties early, but your sister needed a ride home first...
