Remember that wooden orchard ladder we had propped against the wall in the reading room in our old house? And remember that black wire basket we used in my Mom’s guest bedroom makeover a while back? Well, my Mom gave me the … Continue reading

Hey now. Look at that updated living room. As mentioned earlier I’ve been working on a painting project with Sherwin-Williams for National Painting Week.

When we decided it was time to makeover Bre’s room, she asked for a big floor pouf. She fell in love with one at West Elm, but it was a little pricey so I told her I’d try to make it. I was a little scared at first, because it seemed a little overwhelming. Yes, I can sew, and I do a pretty good job. I don’t know why I was so scared, but I scoured tutorials all over the interwebs trying to figure out the easiest and least miserable way to make it, because every single tutorial I found made it look so complicated that I wanted to throw in the towel before I even started. Instead of following someone else’s directions, I thought through long and hard on how to make a pouf. I know what happens when you sew part a to part b, and so I mentally sewed up a pouf about 10 ways before deciding to just bite the bullet and go for it. I’m going to try my very best to make this tutorial easy to understand – but as always if you have ANY questions, just leave them in the comments at the bottom of this post.

Some of you noticed the black and white horizontal wall stripes in the boys’ bedroom. Good eye! Would you believe the striped accent wall is the result of peel-and-stick wallpaper? Well, it is. The boys’ room it set up to keep the middle of the room open for floor play – a big necessity when [...]
