Baking, Building and Raising Babies We are tackling life one DIY at a time while balancing a family, a budget and a hectic daily life.
The holidays are upon us and while we dig our Artificial Trees out of our storage units, attics or basements, many of us find the tree damaged and not up to the task of holding our ornaments or lighting up our home.

Feature walls are everywhere right now and it is a trend I am HERE for! I love that you can go as bold or as subtle as you want and can totally reinvent a space without any major structural changes. When we first started designing a room makeover for our toddler, I thought a Feature Wall would be a great way to make his space special for him. His ever growing Sports Memorabilia Collection led me to the idea of doing Diamonds on his wall as a understated nod to his Baseball Collection.

I’ve been browsing the internet pretty regularly looking for a more practical Cross Back Apron Design for months now. I’m in the Kitchen baking nearly every day and wind up covered in flour. On top of that, I spend a lot of time out in …
When we first began house hunting, the top thing on my list was a covered front porch. When we found our home, however, the lack of front porch was completely overlooked for the amazing views we got from our back patio. The only setback was the plain boring concrete slab.
In my bedroom, I have an entire chest of drawers dedicated to sweaters. You could call that an addiction, but, I choose to call it a lifestyle. Don’t get me wrong, T-Shirts and Summer fun are great and all, but, the second the temperatures drop …
Our family has been hunkered down at home since the beginning of the COVID-19 Pandemic. We’ve nixxed our annual family vacation to Michigan, and instead are focusing on turning our Backyard into a “Stay at Home Vacation Retreat.” One-by-one, all of the “Some Day” projects …
