Striped Bench & Gallery Wall Preview

Happy Monday!
I hope everyone had a great weekend:).
We finally got to clearing a spot for our vegetable & herb garden.
And I actually got to plant them, yay!
The plants landed on my back porch a week ago & had been staring at me ever since.
I feel slightly accomplished.
I also on a whim painted stripes on my bench.
 

Last week I also finished my photo wall of the boys.
Jennifer at Dear Lillie inpired me.
If you haven’t checked out her blog or shop, do so,
 she is sooo talented & a super nice person too.
I am excited to share more about
it later in the week, including a tutorial on the photos.
This was my first time using Annie Sloan’s Chalk Paint
&
I have to say I LOVE IT!
The texture is amazing.
 Here is a sneak peak at my gallery wall.
I shared this link at



Have a great day

&
thank you for stopping by.

Front Door Makeover-It’s Amazing What Paint Can Do

Today is the day, I am finally revealing my front door color. People often say (including me) that it is just paint but it is still a commitment, so when it comes to selecting the right color it is always best to do a little homework, I call it color research. As you know I was torn between 4 tones, which were all a variation of my favorite hue, navy. Drum roll please…I ended up choosing Sherwin-Williams Anchors Aweigh. I have to say this was a tough choice, Sherwin-Williams has some incredible navys, but at the end of the day I wanted a rich, dark blue that could work all year round with the changing faces of my front porch.

Whale Art: Beach House Inspired

As most of you know I have been busy working on my boys rooms. It seems like these makeovers have taken me months, I have waited so long to do these rooms that I want to do it right. I don’t like to rush design, that is when I make mistakes. Plus, it is way more fun to be deliberate about the things you plan, choose and eventually select. For me the hunt is my idea of a good time, anyone else? So you can imagine my excitement when I found these stunning & playful whale prints below from Minted. Since I was/am going for a modern coastal look in Jack’s room I loved the abstract nature of these watercolor prints. I can just picture these in a beach house that has a rustic, modern aesthetic, can’t you? In any case they are just perfect, so I had to share.

  11. You have obviously painted a lot of furniture white. I am a white lover, to be sure. My question is exactly which white…brand and name, please??

  12. Love this! What paint did you use on your frames and the stripe on your bench? Homebyheidi.com

  14. Love love love the table. Just curious though, did you use a stencil for the stripes? If not how did you get the lines so exact?
