Christmas is less than a week away and that means it will soon be time to start preparing to transition your home decor from festive to something more seasonal.

This DIY embroidery hoop wreath is the perfect addition to your rustic Christmas decor. This project started much like the others, with a trip to the thrift store!

Soooo, all my worries aside, I plan to do my best to lighten up the space…

My favorite project to date was the dining room table we built as a family. I did capture a few of the special moments of us building as a family but I certainly wish I had more of the process to share with you all. Anyway, all feelings aside, I had never had a table like this before. It’s approximately 7 ft long and can seat up to 8 people. Needless to say,…

Bookshelves have always been a challenge for me. One I figured out a little pattern for styling it started to become easier. Believe it or not bookshelves are not just for books...gasp! Everyday things you have around your house like candlestick, spindles, and orbs are all perfect ways to add depth and character to your shelves.
