All about the progress we're making on our home renovations.
Hello, again! It’s week 5 of the One Room Challenge and this week was all about trying to get all those little finishing touches done. If you’re new here. Hi! I’m Melissa. I live in Madison, WI with my family and we are currently updating our 1970’s ranch home. Artwork/Gallery Wall Last week I framed… Read More
Hello, hello! It’s week four of the One Room Challenge and we’re moving right along with the master bedroom. Last week I was having some trouble with my nightstands. I refinished two of the drawers and decided it just wasn’t right in the room. I had too much wood on wood happening. And then it… Read More
Things have been moving a little more slowly this week. We had one very warm day and I got a good amount done while the weather was nice. But then it decided to snow some more and that’s put a damper on my plans. I’m actually watching snow fall out the window right now as… Read More
It’s week two of the One Room Challenge! And so far, so good. The master bedroom is slowly coming along. But it’s also been fun getting back into blogging again. In addition to working on the room I’ve been making some design tweaks to this site as well. I feel like my interior design style… Read More
Well, hello there! It’s been awhile. I decided to stop blogging for a bit because, well, I had a baby (evidence: his nursery)! But now that Elliot is a little older, I am finally finding a routine and am beginning to feel more like myself. Plus, spring time in Wisconsin is always an inspiring time… Read More
This post has been a long time coming. But I’m happy to report that we are finally “done” with Elliot’s nursery! I say this in quotes because I’m constantly tweaking rooms. So nothing is ever really done done. But generally speaking the little man has the only “finished” room in our whole house right now…. Read More
A few weeks ago I posted about all the projects we accomplished in 2016. Although we didn’t get to everything, we are pretty proud of ourselves that we were able to cross a lot of items off our list. And now, keeping up with the tradition, I thought it would be fun to repeat the process and… Read More
Working on Elliot’s nursery has been a very fun project. It’s so nice when something that has been in your head finally comes together in reality. I’ll be sharing a final reveal of the whole room soon. But in the mean time I thought it would be fun to break things down and talk about some of… Read More
At the beginning of 2016 we sat down and laid out a lot of the projects that we wanted to accomplish around the house. It was a pretty long, ambitious list. We didn’t accomplish everything we set out to do, but we made really good progress. We even ended up adding a very different project… Read More
Max and I like to eat local and fresh fruits and vegetables as much as we can. Living in Madison makes this goal pretty easy with all the local farmer’s markets and plethora of CSA (community supported agriculture) programs. There are so many opportunities to buy amazing produce around here. We are very lucky. Before we bought our house we… Read More
