I’m all about a refresh when I can. Most of our furniture and decor ranges from 8-10 years old. No need for a remodel but sometimes I get the urge to give a corner a bit of a facelift. A fresh coat of paint or some throw pillows make a world of a difference.

I really don’t know what our design aesthetic is. Our newly remodeled master bathroom is certainly modern but I suppose I would describe the rest of our house as modern farmhouse. I think? Clearly I am not an expert. What I do know is that if you only buy items that you love…somehow it all works!

This little corner of our kitchen needed some extra love so I measured and searched for a tiny console to store our travel souvenirs. That little corner now seems so cozy. All you need is texture…wood, wire, greenery, ceramics, mixed metals and the end result is a wonderful space that can transition to a bar cart, coffee station, appetizer station and more.

We inherited my parents French, dining room table when we bought the house and it’s one of my favorite pieces. The natural wood and curvature fit perfectly into our formal dining room despite being over 20 years old. They don’t make furniture like this any longer. Along with it, we inherited the formal dining chairs which we repaired and reupholstered as well.

Today we decked the halls, which is our annual after-Thanksgiving tradition. I’ve donated a lot of our old decor and ornaments and added to my collection every year. The house is finally starting to feel cohesive after all these years. I’ve linked every item for your shopping pleasure AND I think you will love the price tags. I typically shop neutral, rustic decor because it fits our vibe.

Our Master Bedroom Remodel: Part III <the closet>
Our Master Bedroom Remodel: Part III <the closet>

The final installment of our master bedroom remodel is here. In case you missed it, read part I and part II. As you can imagine, these posts are huge labors of love hence the delay in rolling them out quickly. The last chapter of this book is entirely focused on my closet. You see, my husband had the brilliant idea that because I have so much “stuff” that I should utilize an under utilized sitting room in our bedroom. Let me be clear that I never asked for it and my husband is also a genius. Also code for: he really wanted to kick me out of the closet! So this space that had two hand-me-down loveseats and a ton of PR packages piled up began to take shape in our heads…and exactly one year later, it became a thing.

I’ve recapped our bathroom remodel but what about the bedroom? That got a mini-facelift, too! If you’ve been following me for awhile you know that our master bedroom held so much light and was beyond spacious, however, we weren’t fully utilizing the space in a way that made sense. We also had the most awful, baby blue carpet. It was the ultimate thorn in my side every time I walked into the room. Old, beat up and stained from dogs and kids. Yuck!

When I get inspired to do something, I am driven to make it happen come hell or high water. It’s my best personality and my worst all at once. Ask my husband!

There’s nothing like waiting for a pandemic to kick-off a massive home remodeling project. If you haven’t ever experienced this before, I highly recommend you save your sanity and hold off on construction because there is nothing like sanitizing a house daily and double quarantining your entire family, dog included, from a construction crew. But, you know the Grange Family, we like a challenge. God forbid we ever be bored!

If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you know that we have hit completion with a couple of home projects. What a relief! Raising two girls has definitely given me the patience required to endure construction commingled with a pandemic. I definitely had my days though!
