NOW Trending: My Top 10 Go-to White Paint Colors
Hi there sweet friends! I hope you all had an amazing summer! It’s crazy to think it is that time of year again. Time to take out the boots & sweaters {well almost} and enjoy…
Hi there friends! You have been asking for a while and today I am sharing the details on how we (Robert + I) designed and built a DIY custom wall unit for the BHG makeover. If you aren’t familiar, I teamed up with Rebuilding Together to give a deserving homeowner (Karen) a FULL room makeover with a feature in the Oct 2017 issue of BHG. This built-in was a true labor of love for my PIC (partner in crime). I remember showing up to his house over a year ago on a cold, fall day with this sketch up of the custom built-in I had in mind. It was a shameful rendering but he got it, right away. I knew then that we would make a great team (and we did). Not one time did Robert say no, I don’t thing so or can’t be done. And let me tell you, we hit a lot of snags and set backs. You can tell by the in progress shots below how we poured our heart and soul into this project. The biggest thank you to Lowe’s!!! For which without their contribution to this project, it would have never happened!
Hi, my name is Alicia and I blog over at A Burst of Beautiful. My husband, Nick, and I started A Burst of Beautiful with the encouragement of family and friends to share our creativity…
Today is the day! I am finally revealing Jack’s Modern Coastal Bedroom, the before & afters and all of the sources! It has been a few months in the making so I am super excited to share this makeover with all of you, mostly because I LOVE how it turned out. Before his space lacked, in every sense of the word. We kept a queen size bed in his room for “company” but rarely used it for such. The walls were blah and it was very uninspiring. As Jack got older I really wanted a space that felt creative and fun. A place he could get away and read or play his Lego’s. I also wanted it to reflect the things he loves, like the ocean and sea creatures, mostly sharks:).
We are finally doing it! We are designing a white kitchen!! I will be working with what we have since it was fully remodeled in 2005 and the layout is perfect. I have no doubt…
Have you heard? Pottery is the new hot home trend. I heard a rumor that it even went so far to replace the basket. Gasp! I do not think we should go and throw our…

Amazing! It looks wonderful!
Your dipped pot looks beautiful Jen!!
Thank you so much Heather! I hope you are well:). Have a great week, Jen
Love this idea! Did you use a plastic pot?? I’m wondering what type of material is best for this project. Can’t wait to try it!
Hi Jenny,
Thank you! I used a cement pot, the more texture the better, but I think any material would work:). Hope this helps! Have a great week.
Oh how clever. Great job.
It would be wonderful to have your post be a part of Seasonal Sundays.

I hope I am not repeating a question that has already been asked. What two paint colors did you use? Btw I love your blog!!! I’m using so many of your DIY ideas for my home. What I really wish is that you could come and be my personal interior designer(free of charge of course)! Lol:)
Hi Brooke,
Thank you so much, that make me happy knowing you are using some of my ideas:). It was a cream spay paint and BM charcoal for the bottom. Hope this helps. Have a great day! Jen
When you say BM house paint, do you mean outdoor paint for exterior painting or just indoor house paint for wall? Maybe it would not matter as long as it’s latex?.
Hi Karen,
Sorry, just regular latex paint for interior. Have a great day! Jen
I know I already commented on this post but I feel the need to say it again. This idea is awesome and It turned out great.
