BEFORE & AFTER / SOUTH OF FRANCE APARTMENT
BEFORE & AFTER / FRANCE APARTMENT: I wanted to share our home renovations over the last few years that started with our little apartment (527 s.f.) in the South of France. We purchased it just before COVID and it proved to be very challenging since it was our first renovation. We hired a contractor just before the…

IKEA Billy Bookcase Turned Built-Ins
We moved into our home in 2021. We just had the IKEA bookshelves in white. My wife wanted the built-in look, so I worked on them one weekend while she was away. I love the way they turned out.

Kitchen update in a rental
We just finished an update to our rental kitchen that hasn't been updated since the building was built in 2007 and quite honestly even then there were no design decisions. It felt like it was whatever was least expensive was picked. We took down the cabinets to sand, prime, and paint with a beautiful Sherwin Williams…

Before and after Dining Room Table

New Work Space
My daughter recently moved out, and I've transformed her room into my work space. The centerpiece remains a mid-century modern desk that belonged to my mother, flanked by an Ikea bookshelf. They rug is from Anthropology and the easy chair from Article. I mixed purple, the color of my childhood bedroom, with green, my favor…

A work-in-progress WFH office
About four months in, my 450 square-feet studio apartment is still a messy work in progress, but at least my office corner is beginning to look a little more inviting, as well as functional. My lease is an ironclad nightmare —no painting, peel-and-stick wallpaper, only 3mm nails allowed on the walls, and so on, so I'm…

Show me the most unexpected place you have art!
I have only ever hung art on walls or put it on shelves, but I am thinking of branching out after seeing so many tours lately where the art is displayed in unexpected places! (I was particularly delighted by the door art from professional home stager Jason Saft's tour.) Do you have art in your home that's in an…

Kids Bedroom
When the kids visit us at the cabin they have room filled with toys and books that look out on to the lake. A cosy chair in the corner for snuggling up and reading. Everything in this room is thrifted except the beds.😀

Show us your bed!
Mine is a Murphy bed!! It's a gamechanger for studio apartment living (it folds up into that space and then the doors close, so we can easily have company over). It's a full-sized bed, and yes, two people sleep in it every night haha. But it's surprisingly comfy! I have an Allswell mattress topper that's the best thing…

old work bench
My father was a carpenter and he used this in the basement as his work bench. He often just painted things with leftover paint from his projects… and thus the Kelly Green. I can just see him turning in his grave about me using this in my living room… he would have so wanted to build something 'nice' for me. But I love it…

What's your favorite seat in your home?
I just saw this TikTok from Timm Chiusano where he sits in every single seat in his home, and it got me thinking… what's the best seat in your own home? I adore my velvet armchair from Burrow (which makes me feel like the Sleepytime Tea Bear every time I curl up in it).

Eclectic Maximalism
My name is Heidi and Heidi starts with H. I love my bright, funky, colorful home. I rent, so no painting walls, but I've manage to fill it with tons of patterns an colors. I collect 50s and 60s glassware, smiley faces, art and the letter H….lots of Hs. I have midcentruy modern pieces combined with contemporary. I have a…

Finally knocked a few home projects off the list this weekend
My wedding is coming up next weekend, and while almost all of the T's and I's are crossed and dotted there, I still needed somewhere to put my anxious energy — so we finally 1) installed an IKEA lamp that has been sitting on our dining room table for months, 2) installed a magnetic knife block, finally clearing counter…

Show me your garden and houseplant humble brags!
Not even close to a master gardener or plant whisperer here, but our hydrangeas are such a source of joy right now! I think they're bigger and better than ever, and we just had to snip a few for a bouquet because the plant is flush with blooms, and some were weighing over the bush and touching the ground. The blue ones are…

Okay I'm sharing two because I simply can't pick favorites! I adore my pink piece by HiAbbyHi. I really gravitated towards the colors and hand-drawn feel. I like to pretend this is a glass of chilled red, so it feels fitting in the dining room 🍷 This flower sculpture mirror by MengoFruit is a constant source of joy for me…

My Dining Room Before & (in-progress) After
Sharing my progress on my dining room! I'm not quite done — the shelves, for example, are not screwed into the brackets yet because I think I need to even out the stain a bit first. I'm also waiting for my art to come back from the framers! Eventually I hope to add a pendant light in here, too, so that we have more than…

Show off your organized closets 💁♀️
Does anyone have a closet that's organized and functions well? I'm looking for some inspiration. My bedroom closet is somewhat organized by color, but I have a bunch of things hidden on the floor that have become my secret chamber of things Photo credit to the lovely Studio DIY (I love these closet doors!)

Living Room Slowly Coming Together!
I just added some curtains this weekend to my living room/kitchen area as I wanted to paint the room but it's a pretty daunting task with all the nooks and curves I have with the kitchen part of the room. I definitely feel like the curtains add an additional sense of warmth! I eventually want a new couch and have to get…
