I don’t need to decorate for Halloween, the messes inside are scary enough!

It’s week 4 of the One Room Challenge and this week I’m sharing the process of trimming out the face of the shelves and painting. Go to my website (link in bio) for the details.
These bookshelves are pretty, but they also have to function to hold books, and office items I need while I work. I like to hide the less pretty items in baskets, boxes, and file boxes.

I wish my words could set a tone of calm relaxatio

I wish my words could set a tone of calm relaxation like this picture looks but I don’t think I can. It’s a cold and rainy morning here. I have a million urgent things to do that must get done today, but all I want to do is snuggle up in this blanket and sip my tea. Okay, I have procrastinated too long! And now I’m a little overwhelmed. Do you do that? Put things off that you don’t want to do?

I showed the other side of our kitchen last week, so I thought I’d show you this side today. When I designed this home, I wanted it to have character even though it would be a newly constructed house. I think the built-in hutch adds a lot of that. When I think of a hutch, I think of passed down heirloom dishes and recipes...and homemade pie. Maybe I’m hungry, but I really do think of pie.
And I love being able to rotate and see some of those special dishes. Last year for Christmas, I gave my mom a pie plate customized with my grandmother’s Lemon Meringue Pie recipe imprinted on it. It was in my grandmother’s handwriting from an old recipe card. It is a beautiful and functional way for us to remember her and we will treasure it. I’ve linked the source in my LTK. I’ll show it in my stories too.

Has the mystery of the tiny holes in the fronts of our shirts been solved yet? I just put on a newish shirt this morning and found the dreaded hole in the front torso area. Why?!? I know other people (all women it seems) have this problem. We can talk to a device and tell it fo fill a pot, but we can’t figure out the holes in shirts problem? Do you get tiny holes? Do you know why?

It’s a rainy morning here, so I’m throwing it back to a beautiful crisp Fall day when we had the French doors to the screened porch open to let the fresh air in.
It’s Friday! What do you have planned for the weekend?

I’m all about sneak peeks this week, I guess. This is a sneak peek of my office bookshelves I’ve been working on for the #oneroomchallenge . On my blog today, I am showing our step-by-step process for building these shelves. The link is in my bio.

This is a never before seen FULL view of my kitchen. I have shown it in tours and in smaller views, but never the whole enchilada! That’s probably because I don’t love my barstools, but progress over perfection, right? We moved into this house about 1 year ago, and this island was covered in moving boxes. And a year before that, this was just land without a house! We have come so far and I am so proud of the home we built and the memories we are making around this island.
Speaking of which, are you catching my stories with the Fall recipes tour? Yesterday I shared Pumpkin Cheesecake Cookies that my daughter and I made.
What is your favorite Fall dessert?

Hot tea & cozy throw...I’m in full Mondenial (Monday denial). I thought I just made up that word, but I just looked and it’s in the urban dictionary. Oh well, I’m too slow again! Tell me something great about your weekend so we can all hang on just a little longer.

I love the texture and interest our board and batten wall adds to our bedroom. This accent wall is a simple project my husband and I did ourselves. I plan to find something to hang over the bed, but until I find just the right thing, the board and batten will get all the attention.

I have more accent wall inspo for you to check out today as well on the feeds of my friends below - be sure to check out our stories for something fun we are doing together too!

Remember Edna, the ugly Goodwill chair? This is how she looks now. Swipe to see her before picture. I did her makeover as part of the #oneroomchallenge All she needed was new cushions and a little paint. I have also been gathering material to build bookshelves in my office. I’ll be showing our step by step process next week. You can get the materials list and plan for the project on my blog (linked in my bio).

Cleaning with kids in the house is like brushing your teeth while eating cookies. I used to stress about the mess that was sure to follow sweet moments like these. But now I’m enjoying these times because this @Oreck HEPA cordless vacuum makes quick clean ups so easy. #ad It’s everything I already love about Oreck, without the pesky cord...no more unwinding, moving outlets, winding it back up. Total game-changer!
.
Right now, Oreck has a great deal on this and other models for Amazon Prime Day! This deal will run from October 13th (today) from 5pm PST until October 14th at 5pm PST. I’ll put a swipe up link in stories and you can also find it in my Amazon Shop (linked in bio). Other Oreck models are discounted as well.

Today is day 1 of my first #oneroomchallenge and I'm so excited to share this process with you! Over the next 6 weeks, I will be doing the following to makeover my home office:
• DIY wall of bookshelves.
• DIY art piece.
• Adding sconces.
• Changing the chairs (maybe?)
.
This week I’m starting off by sharing my design board, as well as the before pics! As always, budget is important and I'll be doing as much as I can do keep the budget for the entire project under $500. Swipe for the BEFORE picture. My blog will have more info too. (Linked in bio)

Today, let’s look for the extraordinary in this ordinary Wednesday. Any day can be a great day if you look for the good stuff...a sweet smile, a kind gesture, a lucky accident, people helping people, a good parking spot, your song on the radio, the windows open to enjoy this beautiful Fall weather.
>>The little things won’t change your life, but noticing them will. <<
Today my bed is made and looking good. Has a little thing brightened your day today?

I used to be cool...now I get excited about a new vacuum. This @sirenasystem is getting into nooks and crannies and cleaning ALL the dust bunnies that were multiplying like, well, like bunnies. #ad
When that beautiful natural light streams through the windows, it highlights every single particle of dust. I have 2 kids with asthma, so dust is not allowed in my house. The thing I love most about this @sirenasystem is that it uses water to trap dust and dirt in the tank. It actually cleans and disinfects the air while it’s cleaning the floors and upholstery! Other vacuums that use bags, even those with hepa filters leak dust and germs back into the air through the pores in the bag.

Y’all showed so much interest in my low carb food blog I mentioned recently, that I thought I’d share another goodie. Whether you are living the low carb life or not, you will love these chocolate chip cookies. This recipe doesn’t have that non-sugar sweetener taste. Go to my stories for the link to the recipe.
