Refreshing the Staircase - Erase Wood Scratches & Blemishes

Well hello there everyone, it's been a while since my last blog post, what a slacker I am!!! 
I've been posting more in Instagram these days (it's so much quicker).

So this weekend I tackled a project that has been 
bugging me for a while and I want to share it with you cuz 
I am just THAT PUMPED about the outcome!

The "eyesore" I tackled is our STAIRCASE !!!! Our house is 12 years old now and the
staircase has made it through the toddler years, tons play-dates & sleep-over's, 
a 185 pound Newfoundland dog, 3 kittens practicing their climbing skills & my 
vacuum cleaner crashing into it on a regular basis (bad driving skills). 

Christmas Snap Shots Around The House

Merry Merry Christmas everyone! I know by the time this post goes live 

it will be too late to wish you a Merry Christmas but technically as I am typing this 

post late Tuesday night (on Christmas Day) it still counts!!!

I was running really late decorating, gift-wrapping, cooking, etc this year, so this post 

is also late....you might all be totally done looking at Christmas Decor pictures by now, 

but heyyyy it's still winter, right?

Here is a little corner in the kitchen nook, I love this vintage crate with a demijohn I found

a few years ago. Looks amazing with string lights for all seasons.

A Guest Bedroom Make-Over and what a difference a rug can make

So I've been busy giving our guest bedroom a Make-Over and getting it into tip top shape, because

Just A Few Snapshots Around the House

Hello everyone, I know I know....It's been a while since my last blog post. 

I keep wanting to get back into blogging on a regular basis 

but somehow I can't seem to get that going. 

However, I do post more frequently on INSTAGRAM 

(so much faster to post a quick picture versus writing an entire blog post). 

So please do follow my Instagram page!!!!

So today I got some snapshots from around the house for you. 

Below is a glimpse of the kitchen counter. I am working

towards changing the decor in the kitchen from

Rustic/Country to Scandi/Boho Style. 

WHAT SAY YOUUUUU?
