DIY Industrial Bookshelves
One Room Challenge- Week 5 Still trudging along on my son’s bedroom update and I have now officially completed week five of the One Room Challenge! Man, that really makes me realize how much I need to get done in the next week. Yikes. Anyway, these DIY industrial bookshelves were fast and easy. They are also the perfect complement to the platform bed Ikea hack and upholstered headboard that I made over the last couple of weeks. Inspiration Stalking I don’t know about you, but I like to make scouting trips before I start a project. Basically I go to different home stores and look for products I can use…

One Room Challenge- Kids Bedroom Update
For the next six weeks I will be a guest participant in the One Room Challenge! I’m super excited as this is the first year that I have participated, though I have been following along for quite some time watching all the amazing rooms that people design.

DIY Bathroom Organization
This week I’m working with a group of super talented DIY bloggers and am participating in a $50 organization challenge! The challenge was to organize any area in our homes using handmade items and only spending $50 or less. I must say, I had more than my fair share of options for home organization!! But this time my older son’s bathroom won out. With an old wonky shelf above the toilet that allows things to slide off into dangerous territory and no other real storage for often used items (toothbrush, floss, etc), this room needed some love. It still could use some updates but I must say the DIY bathroom…

Bathroom Vanity Update
Our master bathroom was in pretty desperate need of updating when we first moved into our house. And in all honesty, it still kind of is. But since we couldn’t do a full remodel at the time, I decided to prioritize and focus on a bathroom vanity update. It is amazing what a difference it made!

How to Make a DIY Diamond Tufted Headboard
I don’t know about you, but my bedroom has always been my happy place. It is where I go to cozy up with a book, watch a movie on my laptop, and of course sleep. Needless to say, I spend a ton of time in there. So it wasn’t even a question when we moved into our new house that the bed would be a top priority. This DIY diamond tufted headboard was a much needed addition to our room and really created the upscale vibe we were going for!
