Today I have partnered with Walmart to share fun and festive holiday porch decorating ideas with you! The Holiday Time collection this year from Walmart is absolutely amazing. Walmart has so many colors and styles to choose from, I know you will find something beautiful to decorate your home this holiday season! I used two of the 9 ft garlands that have pretty pinecones attached with different greens. The garlands are a great buy at this price and they are super versatile. They also have a metal loop on one end to help the garland stay put wherever they are hung. I am not only using them on my porch…

Christmas has arrived at Walmart! Woohoo! The Holiday Time collection is so good; you may wind up wanting everything in it!

High End Home Décor Dupes & DIYs
I love seeing other people’s homes and how they decorate them via things like Pinterest, Instagram, going to a parade of homes event, etc. It’s a great way to brainstorm for new ideas/maybe see how a particular item looks in someone’s home instead of just in a catalog or in a store. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has gotten sticker shock after finding out the prices for some of the items! I remember one time I saw a gorgeous table and when I looked it up it cost as much as all the furniture in my entire house! The good news, however, is that sometimes you can…

Interior finishes
I’m so excited to share some of the process we went through in choosing finishes for our home and I will also show you some of the final selections! Choosing finishes sounds so fun and easy but it isn’t always so. I’m definitely part of the group of people who find the whole process quite hard at times. For this house; I had to go into a design meeting, speak with a designer, look around, get rough quotes on product (and some of those quotes took a few days to be returned), and then make some final selections all in half a day! I even had a plan going in…

Framing is Complete!
The framing of our house is now completed. It did not take long at all for the house to take shape. Its amazing that in a matter of days you go from dirt to a framed home and your dream is now a reality not just a thought. The lumber was delivered and the fun began. The first step was to put down the floor joists on the foundation border. Plywood goes down over the floor joists to give you a floor to walk one. Just like that the base of our home is done the walls can go up! Seeing the walls go up is pretty exciting! These men…

We Broke Ground!
After months of waiting to get the permit, we finally broke ground and work had started on the foundation of our new home! Before we sent the house plans to get permitted, we got to pick where on our land we wanted the house to sit and where the driveway would be. Let me tell you, it was so much fun to see the orange stakes indicating the layout of our house on the dirt. Although it didn’t look like much, it was finally starting to feel real (even if just a little bit). Something we have dreamed and worked towards for the last 10 years was actually coming to…
