    Powder rooms that make me squeal!

    I have no idea why I have an obsession with well decorated powder rooms, but I do! It’s the one place a guest will go that you can guarantee that they’ll be checking out the space from head to toe.
    There’s nothing better than opening a door to a beautiful bathroom! Well cleanliness is a major one too, but you know what I mean.
    White and gray powder room features walls clad in gray geometric wallpaper lined with a white single washstand topped with carrera marble placed under a silver leaf beaded mirror illuminated by Worlds Away Delilah Silver Wall Sconces.:
    These are rooms that are fairly easy to upgrade too! A little paint or wallpaper can make a major statement.
    Elegant printed wallpaper in blue and white with gold accents and mirror above the sink with white bathroom cabinets. Stunning bathroom design idea!:
    Some upgraded hardware and a stunning mirror can be so eye-catching! Fresh flowers are a big win for me too.

    I can’t be the only one who has a huge heart for decorated powder rooms?
  • Barn inspired homes.

    Barn inspired homes.

    Living in a barn might not sound all that appealing, but these spaces below may just change your mind!
    This barn looks modern and rustic! It’s simply gorgeous.
    With large windows, tall ceilings, and a touch of the barn indoors, this space takes living in a barn to a whole new level!
    Not interested in it looking so much like a barn inside? This upgrade could do it! I like how they are using the beams to define the barn like living, but still keep it updated everywhere else.
    Would you live in a renovated barn?
    Perfect!!! Woodshop downstairs, live upstairs, couldn't be better. Gotta get building.:
    I would!!
  • Creative Laundry Spaces

    Creative Laundry Spaces

    Although a laundry room is usually last on everyone’s list to renovate or upgrade, these ideas may get you inspired to get in there and make your laundry room more functional!

    Having a defined area to fold laundry is something I personally love! It’s also nice for storing things that you use constantly like laundry soap.
    Having a place to hang up your clothes as soon as you pull them out of they dryer is nice! Having a hanging area that doesn’t take up much space is even better!
    Keeping laundry storage clutter free is not easy. Baskets are a great idea to hide all the clutter but keep everything easily accessible.

    Pick materials you love! Great cabinets, drawers, and counter tops can make a huge difference on your mood the second you walk into the laundry room. Make sure it’s a space that you actually enjoy being in!
  • Easy outdoor upgrade

    Easy outdoor upgrade

    Outdoor space can be tricky when it comes to design. In most cases, to upgrade your exterior space can be quite a costly adventure. There’s one that I always keep in mind when being budget conscious and that’s a pergola! 
    They aren’t too expensive, they are easy to DIY, and they can add so much more to your outdoor space. 
    They create a great space for some partial shade, and some privacy if you’d like it!
    You can dress them up or keep them simple but making them look stunning is not difficult!
    Making it an addition to a preexisting deck our outdoor space really makes your usable outdoor space double!
    Great black timber pergola with white outdoor furniture. Pinned to Garden Design - Pergolas by Darin Bradbury.
    You can use it with a wall to hide an eyesore! It creates a cozy nook and provides great shade.
    Not to mention it’s great for hanging lights from. Who wouldn’t want to add a romantic touch to your outdoor space on a great budget?
