Super easy and fun Fourth of July ideas!

Hey all and welcome to this holiday weekend! I'm ready! I've been getting the house ready with a few little Fourth of July touches -- I love this holiday!

I've gathered a few quick and easy patriotic projects for you today -- if you're hosting like we are this weekend these can be knocked out pretty quick.

You know I love a printable and this free download is an easy way to add some red white and blue without spending any money:

You seriously can't go wrong with these -- such an easy way to add seasonal touches without spending much money. 

These pretzels are super festive and I'll be making them for sure:

I've make these at Christmas and they are GOOD. 

Make your own garland with paper and a quick run through the sewing machine:

So cute! Stars would be adorable too!

I LOVE this idea to paint the lawn with stars! Not sure my husband would love it as much as me. He loves his lawn!:

You could also do "star Twister" -- put them in the Twister design on the lawn for the kids. Fun!

Here's another simple printable that could stay up all year round:

I love a free printable! I use them for every season.

DIY stacked stone fireplace (where there was none!)

Well hello! I have a BIG reveal for you today! I worked so hard on this basement fireplace and I'm so so SO thrilled it's done. I'm excited to share it with you today! I took a ridiculous amount of photos so bear with me. :)  I'll show you where we started first! We have this little bump out in our basement and from day one we knew what we wanted to do with it. When we finished the basement years ago we went ahead and bought an electric fireplace for that spot. It sat on a bench for four years. 😁 A few months ago we decided to have the fireplace built in since the whole space was torn up for the new floors anyway:  Then I was craving a little more traditional look so we had the hearth added along with a mantel:  Then it was time for me to do the rest! I knew I needed to stain the mantel and hearth before I tiled -- it would have gotten all over the tile otherwise. I sanded both down and then cleaned them really well. A wet paper towel does fine:  I ALWAYS use a pre...

My favorite recent projects and posts!

Well hello! Hope you have a wonderful weekend planned! I'm back with another round up of posts from the past few months today. I used to do this monthly but I don't remember to do it most of the time -- so now you get them in batches of two or three months. ;) It's always nice to look back and what I've accomplished around here and it may show you something you've missed! I finished up our loft makeover at the end of the summer -- I shared how I made the giant chalkboard for this space: This is a room that's meant for the whole family so I wanted to make it a fun space. We created a Disney art wall that we'll add to over time. We are going back to Disney World soon and I can't wait to add new memories to this wall!: You can see how we made that Disney pin art in that post as well!  I showed you how I made the large desk with butcher block and how I finished it here :  I also shared my new favorite sanding technique in that post -- it is a SUPER cool tr...

Our mudroom makeover -- from dark to bright and light!

Hey there! So you know how I recently finished up a huge renovation in the loft upstairs? Yeah, well I added another room redo in the midst of finishing that up.  Let me back up and mention right here that I am a little crazy. When the folks at HGTV HOME by Sherwin-Williams™  asked me if I'd like to paint a room and share their new INFINITY paint line (now available exclusively at Lowe's, yay!), I was super excited to share it with you, so of course I said yes!  It started out that I was just going to paint some walls, and then it snowballed from there. BIG time. I ended up painting all of the trim and beadboard in our mud room and then the walls as well. I am so excited to show you this transformation! The difference is SO big.  When we moved our laundry to the basement years ago to free up this room I was so excited to work on it. I had already started the beadboard so that was finished off throughout the space. I went a different direction than usual with a flip...
