Renter Friendly DIY Stenciled Tile Backsplash

Renter Friendly DIY Stenciled Tile Backsplash

You know when a DIY project turns out so well you can’t help but be impressed with yourself? Ya, this is one of them. When Cricut reached out about taking the Cricut Joy for a stenciling spin, I immediately thought of my sister’s apartment. She wanted her rental kitchen to feel like a more permanent […] Read More

Do Not Disturb WFH Printable Door Hanger

Do Not Disturb WFH Printable Door Hanger

I had this idea when we started quarantining and Michael & I started working near each other for the first time. Sometimes I loved the walk by hello and other times I was in all day meetings that really didn’t need a guest basketball shorts appearance. A few months went by and I thought, ah […] Read More

Laundry Closet Makeover (My Favorite “Room” in the House)

Laundry Closet Makeover (My Favorite "Room" in the House)

I’ve been putting off this post for a while, not because I don’t absolutely love it, but because it took so. much. research. What looks like a simple makeover dragged over a month and every little bit hit a snag. I’m ridiculously happy with how it turned out, especially since we see it every day. If you’re more interested in the pretty after shots, scroll on to the bottom. I’m going to get real detailed here so if you’re considering a similar makeover you can get a sense of cost, time, and how to deal with issues that might pop up. Read More

5 Minute Anthropologie Inspired Floral Tapestry

Anthropologie Inspired Floral 5 Minute Tapestry

Some craft brands consistently knock it out of the park and make me want to spend all weekend in the studio. That’s why I am so excited to partner with Cricut again to test out their new mini machine, the Cricut Joy! This little powerhouse is half the size of their other machines with new features like cutting up to 20 continuous feet!!! And with their new smart vinyl, it’s even easier to start making since you don’t need to use a cutting mat!
