Happy Labor Day weekend my friends! I've been super busy this past week trying to get all my "projects" finished up so we could just spend time relaxing and playing with the kiddos. This fireplace refresh was a quick, easy project that had such a huge payoff. You see this tile surrounding our fireplace has been staring at me and mocking me since the day we moved in. Every time I would walk by it I would cringe. But it just wasn't on on the top of our priorities so I just "lived" with it. Finally I'd had enough, I woke up and decided I was gonna slap some paint on it. I mean what's the worst that could happen? We planned on replacing it at some point anyways so if this was a project fail no harm done. Right?!

If you're wanting to give your kitchen a facelift, and don't have a lot of money to throw into a kitchen remodel, then look no further. My husband and I are self taught DIY'ers mostly because we are cheap and don't want to pay someone to do it, but we also love creating things with our own two hands. We are on our 5th home in 7 years, and we have renovated parts of all seven homes.

If there was one style I'd love to have more of in my own home it would have to be eclectic boho. There is just something about how welcoming it feels. It's fuss free and so cozy. The furniture pieces generally have clean lines and lean more towards modern. The addition of warm wood tones throughout the room mixed in with pops of green give a real organic feel to the space. You can bring all sorts of color into the space through your textiles. We went with a more neutral palate for this project, but she could easily swap out some bright pillows or patterned curtains to give the room a completely different look.

I'm so ecstatic to FINALLY be sharing our basement bar remodel with you guys! We totally underestimated the time it would take to complete this project. But adding two kids into the equation will do that. ;) The total project took about 3 months, which when I think about it isn't that long but when you're in the thick of it seems veerrrryyy long. :) I decided to host our neighborhoods annual "Ladies Night" at our house this year and couldn't be more excited to break in the bar. :) It also helped us keep on schedule to get everything finished. We worked so hard on this space and can't wait to make memories this holiday season in our new home with our friends and loved ones.

I absolutely love it when two styles join together and make a beautiful design baby! Modern Farmhouse style is becoming increasingly popular thanks to Miss JoJo (Joanna Gaines, if you've been living under a rock, is the star of the HGTV show Fixer Upper). She's the queen bee at blending these two styles seamlessly.
