New White Painted Mudroom Lockers

Rusty lockers get a bright white makeover for the perfect industrial mudroom addition!  I have a slight (okay, major) problem with keeping or wanting to keep a lot of the items I pick for my vintage booth.   It's probably a good thing that my house is small, but that doesn't stop me from keeping some of my favorite finds.   Most recently, I updated a set of lockers that have been sitting in my garage waiting to be painted.  I bought them to update and sell, but quickly realized they would be perfect for the mudroom .  I originally planned on moving a larger set of lockers to the mudroom, but the smaller set fit the space much better.  ...

Clean and Modern Dining Room Progress

Simple, clean and modern dining room renovation progress! It's been a while since I've shared progress of the kitchen/first-floor renovation , but today is the day.  Today, I'm finally sharing how the modern dining room is coming along.  There's still more to be done (patching, caulking and painting), but it's looking pretty good thanks to new molding, a new modern light and cool mid-century modern chairs that I scored from an auction. I kept the furniture and decor to a minimum to help maximize the small space and new open floor plan.  It feels so much more open and the perfect clean modern vibe that I was going for.  ...

How to Make a Geometric Wood Bead Garland

An easy tutorial for creating a modern geometric wood bead garland using inexpensive square dowels. If you read the mudroom reveal post I shared the other week, then you may remember the geometric wood garland I had hanging above my DIY leather tufted bench .   Even though I knew the garland would be an easy DIY project, I paid the $20 and figured I'd use it as inspiration. Luckily,  recreating the geometric wood garland was one of those projects where the supplies ended up costing a fraction of the price of the HomeGoods garland.  I was able to use what I had on hand,  making my DIY version just under $5.00! ...
