Hello Cumberland Trail
Well, it’s official. We said good-bye to Saddlewood Court and said hello Cumberland Trail. We’ve jokingly said that we are homeless, as we still have a week before Cumberland will be ready for us to live there. You might say…
My Least Favorite Room In the House
Want to see my least favorite room in the house? Don’t we all have one of those? NO? Well, I certainly do. I have a room that has taunted me from the day we moved in 13 years ago. Every…
Before and Afters
Today I am sharing the Before and Afters of July. I have been so busy working outside of the castle, I haven’t had much of time to get a lot of things done.
Pink flamingo
I am obsessed with the pink flamingo! I blame my obsession on Target. A few months ago, I received my weekly email from Target introducing their Pillowfort line. When I saw their pink flamingo sheets, I fell in love. One…
Ryan’s RV Bedroom and Bathroom
Ryan’s RV bedroom and bathroom. I’ve shared a few other posts about my son Ryan’s RV reno before. If you missed it you can see it here and here. Today I want to show you the rest of his humble…
Architectural Details
It’s all about the details. Well, in this case the architectural details. I love decorating with old doors, found objects, and unusual pieces that you wouldn’t normally see on their own. My sweet friend Shelli had these given to her,…
Turquoise Lamp
Y’all know I live in “manland” here at the castle. Well, except for Sadie the black lab and Firehydrant the cat, but I don’t think they care about the decor. For the most part I try to keep a balance…
Nightstands Before and After
I am so excited to show you the sweet little nightstands before and after! My seester and I were hitting the garage sales when she visited a few weeks ago. We found the cutest nightstands, but they are really small.…
A Royal Dog Bed
Recently I made a few changes in my kitchen. I took down the metal pot rack hanging over the kitchen island. Mainly because I never hung pots off of it. For years the only thing the pot rack held…
Trash to Treasure Cross
It’s trash to treasure time again. You remember that I found some cool stuff in the trash on my morning walk recently? No? Well, you can see that here. I have been slowly but surely repurposing everything I dug…
Trash to Treasure
I admit it. I own it. I pick up things from the trash occasionally. On my morning walks on trash days you might be surprised what people throw out. Now, don’t think I am actively digging in dumpsters, but a…
Turquoise Night Stands
My BFF Roxanne’s sweet momma Sarah just moved here to be closer to her girls. In the move she downsized and had to get rid of some furniture….you know where this is going, right? Miss Sarah was kind enough to…
Using Chalk Paint Outside
I have been knocking out a ton of small projects, which is good – and bad. Good that I am finally getting around to getting them done. Not so good that it takes time away from my bigger projects. A…

Tiny Details In My Office
I shared my office with you last week in a really HUGE post. So huge that I couldn’t show you all of the tiny details in my office in one post. So today I get to share those with you!…

TV Armoire Becomes an Office
I hate to admit it, but most of my blogging is done from my sofa in front of the TV.( My ADD prevents me from just sitting and watching a TV show – at least that’s my excuse!) If you…

Small Gold Bench
My good friend Susan called me and asked if I wanted some furniture that her daughter left in her garage after she got married. Of course! One of the pieces was literally “in pieces”. It was a small bench that…
Mid Century Modern Dresser
I know that you won’t believe me, but I don’t paint every piece of furniture that clients bring to me. Sometimes the piece of furniture is so perfect as it is, that it would be a crime to paint it.…
My Redneck Pool
Remember when I shared my patio cover and new lights this year and you could see part of a “crop circle” in the photo? The crop circle is the pad for my redneck pool. ( It’s only redneck because I…
Small Black Table
If you haven’t noticed before, I love navy. Years ago I had a ton of navy in my house. Then the red, gold, and green trend came along and I reluctantly waved good-bye to all of my navy. Well, things…
Father’s Day Memory Box
When my sisters and I were trying to figure out what to buy our Dad for Father’s Day we really had to rack our brains to think of something! I mean, he rarely wants or needs anything. Don’t get me…
The Powder Room
If you have been following me for awhile you are probably looking at this post thinking “Didn’t she redo the powder room before?” Well, you would be right, I did! You can check that out here. But you KNOW that…
Repurposed Cabinet Door
A few weeks ago I was in Oklahoma visiting family and my seester D took me to Restore to do a little shopping. We found a ton of old cabinet doors. My mind was whirling with all the possibilities. Sign,…
My Little Blue Planter
I have to admit that I have about twenty projects in the works at one time. Which is rare for me. Now that we have sunny days, I am trying to play catch up with everything I had planned to…
Laundry Room Facelift
My sweet seester Darrla has been talking about giving her laundry room a facelift for awhile now. One problem. She hates to paint. Say whaaaaatttt???? I KNOW, I have been telling her she is adopted for years! Just kidding.. Since…
