Paint Your Own Feature Wall and Add a POP of Color!
You've had one of those days. You wake up and try on an outfit—then another. You keep going until the stack of clothes on your floor is reaching waist-height. That's exactly how I've approached this bathroom. This room has had so many iterations. 60's original, 80's remodel, farmhouse, modern...

Favorite Fall Product Roundup
Ahh!! Fall is here! Crispy air, falling leaves, and the beginning of 9 months of rain, if you're here in the PNW. But really, few things are more draining than constant cloud cover. So I put together a collection of favorite things that always put a smile on my face. 1. I had to start out...
