Simple, Modern, Romantic, and French, can it be all of those, I say yes, yes, yes!!!!! I love all of the above mentioned and I love them mixed. By mixing Modern into to Romantic it keeps Fresh and not to granny. And #everything French is my favorite. So lets jump right into the process. My…
Popping in today to share a really special makeover. I have had this Kitchen Island for just about as long as we have been in this house, so twentyish years. It weighs a ton, and is rock solid, it was white for 19 of those years. It was covered with a funky kind of paint/plastic…
Welcome onto the porch, one of my favorite places, for what I like to call a “Sit Spell” Here in Pennsylvania it takes a little longer than normal to be able to add Pumpkins to your front porch, because its still so warm, really into early October. But once the nights start getting cool, its…
Boy have these puppies been around for a long time. I mean they aren’t antiques or anything. I purchased them about 10 years ago at the Pottery Barn Outlet Center in Lancaster, PA, for a song, and I do mean a song. They were priced $49, $59, $69, $79, $89, and I bought then for…
Wait, what, didn’t I just paint over the last bit of red that was left in this old house. Well, hold on, I am using this red paint from Annie Sloan Chalk Paint to custom mix the perfect fuchsia. I drove over an hour to my stockiest for this paint, and only bought this small sample of the red,…

This will read as sort of like a diary along the way. I will try to document everything, but you know some times I get so excited to start, that I forget to bring the camera with me. Ha Today I plan to spray paint the red radiator and bring it back to white. So that we…
Well it has been about two months since we painted the living room white. I love, love, love, the room and I am so glad I took the plunge and went white. This was a really big step for me. I even painted a bathroom in the same color first because I was so scared. That…
I had just painted this round table from grey to white a few weeks back, but once I paint the coffee table and I had two pieces in the room painted with Miss Mustard Seed Milk Paint, the round table seemed at least to me, to be out of place. It was white but the…
Recently I removed the desk turned coffee table from the living room and moved it into the family room. I really felt it was to heavy of a look for the living room. Plus we didn’t have anything in the family room, {ha, a room I haven’t shared here or on Instagram as of yet} except for…
