Project: Easter Brunch 2018
It’s Easter tomorrow and that means it’s time for Easter brunch 2018. Last year we also celebrated with a brunch and I even used the same placemats. They’ve become a small tradition. I love when we start our own little family traditions, it’s so fun. Okay, let’s get started on what we’ve got here. The Recipes Mexican Shakshouka Avocado Corn Salsa Homemade Tortilla Chips First, set your table nicely. I like to do this early, before the guests arrive. That way it’s nice and pretty…

Project: Tipsy the Boler
Tipsy the Boler is finding her small little space in the wide open internet. As I’m sure many of you know we’ve been running a Tumblr page for all things Boler for a little over 3 years. Well, now we’re branching out. In January we opened an Instagram account for Tipsy as a way to share content, help other Boler lovers with their projects, and to engage the community. Now, today actually, we just started to share on a dedicated Facebook page to Tipsy. So…

Project: Mirror Barn Door
Remember back in June of 2013 when we built a barn door for our guest room closet? It’s awesome. Not only did we save a lot of money, we saved space and created a unique statement piece in the room. Well, we’ve decided to update that look and turn the barn door into a mirror barn door and give our guest room some much needed light. The first step, finding a mirror big enough! Let’s get started!

Project: Guest Room

With the new mirror barn door (another post to come soon) and the white walls, the room is much brighter, more welcoming, and overall, mega awesome. Let’s check it out! Guest Room…

Project: DIY Headboard
It’s project time – DIY headboard time, to be exact. You can see from the photo below that I’m a little behind in sharing this project since it’s not all green outside. Nope, we have snow no grass right now. This project started this past summer. We knew we wanted a headboard in our second guest room, yet we didn’t really like the idea of paying $800 for one. In browsing a few sites I came across an article from Apartment Therapy – Best Upholstered…

Project: November Intentions
It’s November first and we have a fresh coat of snow on the ground. The day is bright. It’s also a new beginning – new month – new season. I follow Lee from America on Instagram and she usually posts her intentions for the month. I flat out love this. One of my New Year’s resolutions is going start doing this. Then I thought, why wait? Take action now. So, here we are on November first, setting intentions. November Intentions Start small and set yourself…

Project: Trick or Treat Bags
It’s almost halloween which means it’s time for trick-or-treat bags! I got these ready for Tuesday night since Monday is a busy day. Last year we only had two kiddos, yet we’ve had a house go for sale in the area and I have no idea if they have zero or 9 children. Basically, I want to be prepared. Plus, having a couple of leftover treats isn’t a bad thing, right? Trick or Treat Bags First, stop at the Dollar Store. Here, the trick is…
