Street of Dreams- The Reserve

This English Farmhouse was my 2nd favorite house on the street. I absolutely love the greenhouse potting station off of the main laundry. I also loved the combination of wood with the elements of white in the kitchen, something I was planning to do in our Modern Farmhouse. YaY! SHOP THIS LOOK: Japanese Contemporary: Didn’t VIEW (I ran out of time) This Golf Course Living has a master on the main.

Kitchen Table DIY

This is a Pottery Barn kitchen table Jason got me for Valentine's Day, Oh... probably 20 years ago! I still LOVE it's style but wasn't loving the COLOR. I almost got ride of it a few times but finally came to the realization it was only the color I wasn't liking. So, I decided to see if I could change the color to something I liked? (I'm glad I did) I headed down to Home Depot and bought a sander (exact one HERE) Came straight home and went to work. One of my Instagram friends stained a door in her room with this same stain and I ended up loving that. So, why not give this a try on my table? I bought this OLD BARN MILK PAINT in the … [Read more...]

S’mores Station

I bought this adorable console table from POTTERY BARN years ago. I use to stain it (natural) every year with my backyard furniture that matched. Last year, I finally got rid of the backyard furniture but I kept this sweet table and decided to turn it into a s'mores station and put it by our fire pit. Last year, I painted the table BLACK! But, for some crazy reason the paint I used didn't weather so well. This last weekend I gave it another coat... This time, I used Behr Paint. I'm hoping for a better result. Looks better, RIGHT?   SHOP THIS LOOK:   … [Read more...]
