Day 107: Project 1896 (Our Home Renovation)…Special Mudroom Edition!
Those of you who follow me on Instagram may have seen my Stories yesterday, and some issues that have creeped up over the past several days. I don’t want to dwell on that right now, though. Instead, I’m going to talk about an area that’s actually, thus far (knock on a 2×4, I’ve got lots…)…
Read MoreDay 92: Project 1896 (Our Home Renovation)
Where do I begin? The past week has been somewhat of a blur. So much so that I completely overlooked Friday as a blogging day, and didn’t even think of it until Saturday night. Thanks so much to those who sent so many nice comments my way here on the blog, on Facebook and IG…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge – Week 6: Manbrary Reveal
I’m so pleased and proud to announce that the Manbrary is now officially open for business. It was a close one, but thanks to more than a few exceptional vendors and partners, I finished on time to reveal it to you today! We made a HUGE leap forward from last week. My husband and I…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge – Week 5: The Final Sprint
Last time I took the One Room Challenge, back in the spring of this year, I had finished before the end of Week 5, and dedicated that week’s post to a “behind the scenes” of my photo shoot for the Week 6 reveal. I was done, in just about four weeks. This round looks a little…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge – Week 4: Injury to Insult
I had a long post planned for this week’s One Room Challenge update, but a nasty little virus visited me on Wednesday morning (and not a respiratory one…), and resigned me to the fetal position for the vast majority of the day. I’m almost horizontal as I write this, while I have a brief break in the…

Welcome to ORC Week 3! If you have no idea what I’m talking about, you are welcome to get up to speed by checking out my Week 1 and Week 2 posts. Well, “real” stuff is finally happening in the Manbrary. We got the room fully cleared out over the weekend, and for one all-too-brief morning,…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge – Week 2: What is a Manbrary?
Although but a week has passed since the One Room Challenge, the brainchild of Linda at Calling it Home, began, it’s like three years in ORC time. In all seriousness, though, we are now at the week 2 mark – a full 1/3rd of the way through this thing. Wait…whaaaat? Last week I shared some pretty iffy…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge – Week 1: Let’s Go!
Aaaaand we’re back! It’s kind of sad that I haven’t blogged much – OK, only ONCE, since the last One Room Challenge. I could go on about how I’m so busy with client work and family stuff, but let’s just get down to business, shall we? For the uninitiated, the One Room Challenge was founded…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge – Week 2
What a difference a week makes! Welcome to Week 2. Last Thursday, I didn’t have a whole lot to report, aside from a whole lot of “before” photos of my vestibule. When I linked up over at Calling it Home, I was actually a little embarrassed. So many people had fully fleshed out mood boards,…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge – Week 1
I’m participating in the “One Room Challenge,” which is again taking the design blog world by storm this spring (thanks to founder and hostess-with-the-mostest, Linda at Calling it Home). Basically, between today and six weeks from now (Thursday, May 7), I, along with loads of other bloggers, will be transforming a space in my own…
