First off, I apologize if you were stopping over here expecting a Favorite Things Friday post. But I finally took pics of the new (er, old) fancy cabinets and I figured, it’s been forever since I’ve done a regular post, so let’s just go for it this week. I’m been posting some little peeks on Instagram […]

Moving the Gallery Wall and Some Changes in the Hallway
April 30, 2018 by 3 Comments
Those of you who follow me on Instagram might have seen that post when I got a wild hair on a snow day and started painting the main hallway blue. Spur of the moment Snow Day project: I painted the hallway. I’m pretty sure I like it- can’t decide if it’s the color I’m going […]

Hello! Thank you all for the prayers for my little girl – they’re working and she’s continuing to heal nicely! Praise the Lord indeed. I am feeling like life might be getting back to normal a bit now and wanted to share with you the details on the DIY desk we (and by we I […]
The Closet-to-Office (AKA Cloffice!) Makeover
March 19, 2018 by 13 Comments
Stick a fork in it, it is D-O-N-E, friends! After what feels like forever, the cloffice is 100% complete, and we couldn’t be happier! There’s a lot to talk about here, and I’ll be writing additional posts with all the details on each part, because it’d be one gigantic blog post if I tried to […]
The Upstairs Hallway: What a Difference a Weekend Makes
April 18, 2017 by 20 Comments
I got a wild hair about a month or so ago and decided to give some much needed attention to our upstairs hallway. I don’t know about you, but I tend to focus much more on the main floor of our home since that’s where we spend most of our time. And this poor hallway […]
DIY Mudroom Nook
December 14, 2016 by 8 Comments
One of the nice things about having limited space and a smaller house is finding creative ways to use the space – in the most effective, useful ways. It’s like a fun challenge, trying to find the smartest ways to use what we have. In our home, we don’t have much of a foyer, or […]
DIY Shiplap In a Frame
November 13, 2016 by 18 Comments
Hellooooo? This thing on?? First of all, if you’re still hanging in there with me, bless your heart. I know it has been a WHILE. Like, longest stretch of non-blogging in ND history, probably. This season of my life has been OUT. OF. CONTROL. I seem to remember the kids starting school in late August, […]
From Boring Bi-folds to Plank French Doors: The Closet Makeover
April 18, 2016 by 14 Comments
I almost titled this The Big, Scary, Questionable-Until-the-Very-End Closet Makeover…because that’s exactly what this was. I had this wacky idea, ran it by my husband…got the raised eyebrows. Looked it up online…found nothing. Plank closet doors… Shiplap closet doors… Securing plywood to closet doors… Closet Doors look like Plank Wall… Make closet doors look like […]
Finding a “New” Nightstand in An Unexpected Spot
March 10, 2016 by 4 Comments
The master bedroom makeover is so close I can almost taste it, friends. Only things left really are the closet doors (it’s a doozy of a project), and finishing the baseboards. CANNOT. WAIT. I know you’re excited too, from the comments and messages you send me – and I LOVE you for it:) My readers […]
Hi there! I’m Liz, a former teacher-turned-stay-at-home mom to three kids, with a passion to create a warm and inviting home on a budget. This blog all started when I’d put the babies down for a nap, and squeeze in a project during those precious couple of hours! My hope is that you visit this page and feel inspired to do a little “naptime decorating” of your own. Thank you so much for stopping by!
