Hanging Doors To Hide Mechanicals In The Flip House

1 Comment

Hanging doors in the flip house was an easy and inexpensive solution to hide the mechanicals while still leaving them accessible if needed. This is another post that I am excited to share because we found the best solution for a problem we had in the flip house and I can finally share it! I need to start off by apologizing for the photos. It is a dark basement and we didn’t have working lights in part of the room when I took these photos. Onward and upward! There is still a great DIY and solution to share – even… Read More

Looking for waterproof flooring? This post will show you the waterproof flooring we added to the flip house in under 20 minutes and for less than $40. These posts are always so exciting for me to share. When we figure out a way to fix a problem we are facing and not spend a ton of money to do it, I can’t wait to share it with you. When we bought this latest flip house (see the tour of the flip on the first day we got the keys HERE), the basement bathroom was the “scariest” room in the house…. Read More

If you stress about the messes in your home, from one cleanohilic to another, I want to challenge you to embrace the mess and be grateful for what it is.

Embrace The Mess – From A Cleanoholic

8 Comments

I want to thank Bona for partnering with me to embrace the mess. All opinions are my own.  A couple of months ago, I shared a post about easy tips to deep clean your home this winter. Now that we are heading into spring, I am wanting to clean and organize even more. We have had the worst winter, so now that the temps are warming up and the sunshine is out, I am motivated more than ever to clean and get things in order this spring. There is something I have mentioned on Facebook and Instagram before, but I… Read More

If you love metal trays and have a few on hand, change them up with the season or the celebration you are using them in. It is so easy to do in minutes with Chalk Couture!

Metal Tray DIY With Chalk Couture

2 Comments

I have an obsession with trays of all kinds. If you have been around here for any time, you know that about me. They are very functional, but I think the real reason I love them so much is because they are fun to decorate. I have had this metal tray for a few years. It is great as it is, but I thought it would be fun to share an easy way to change your own metal trays with Chalk Couture. The best part about this project is that it isn’t permanent. You can wipe the design off when… Read More

I am so happy with this paint for wood floors and I can’t wait to share this project with you!  We are plugging away at our fourth flip house (see all the before photos and video tour of the house HERE) and finishing projects left and right. If you are following along with me on Facebook HERE and Instagram HERE, you are seeing the entire flip project enfold as we do it. We started working on the mail level and taking carpet and everything that was left in the house out. There was a lot of cleaning that had to… Read More

This is an easy 3 drawer dresser makeover with paint, new hardware and some cleaning. It was an easy makeover, but made this piece brand new.

3 Drawer Dresser Makeover With Paint & Hardware

8 Comments

I want to thank Zibra Paint for partnering with me on this 3 drawer dresser makeover. All opinions of their amazing paint brushes are my own.  I bought this 3 drawer dresser at an estate sale. It was missing the door to the cabinet side, but that didn’t matter. These are the kinds of things I look past because you can work around them or Matt has built many doors for pieces like this so I wasn’t worried about it. The shape, size and storage this piece had out-weighed the missing door.  The top of the dresser wasn’t in the… Read More
