If I had one word to summarize this weekend it would be hot. Actually it might be humid. The weather was intense this weekend and while it was nice to have a sunny day the heat made you want to stay locked inside all day! We managed to go outside for a little, but I always managed to stay indoors and get caught up on Younger and binge watch season 1 and 2.
Here is what we were up to!
I’m not going to lie Saturday was spent pretty low key with lots of time just hanging out at home. In the afternoon we finally ventured out to get some items for our laundry room revamp.
Home Depot was our first stop.
After picking up our supplies we roomed around the store and found chic outdoor lanterns that were on sale. They even had cute ones with rope handles.
After Home Depot we ran into Michaels to get some craft supplies for the boys. I can’t stay focused at Michaels. One things or another always catches my eye. Loved this cute Hello sign.
I didn’t pick up the Hello sign, but I did pick up some metal letters for the laundry room. All of the letters were 70 percent off! I was dying to pick up DRY as well, but I couldn’t find the letters.
We also had a good mail day. You can see a peek of the runner for the laundry room above and I also received my beautiful wreath from Genevieve Designs. Stay tuned for a new front door look!
On Sunday we spent most of the day working on the laundry room.
We put down the floor and it was pretty easy to tackle.
Of course when we were half way done and went to open a new box of tile we realized they sent us the wrong color!
We had been using the white with gray veining and the last boxes we had were beige. Ugh! Project over. We now have to wait for the new replacement boxes to arrive.
I went thru my fabric stash and found a pretty green fabric I want to use for a faux roman shade in the laundry room.
In honor of national ice cream day we also had ice cream multiple times! Whoops!

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]
Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]
For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
