• DIY Fireplace Makeover

    May 19, 2020 Shannon Aycock

    I mentioned in my living room makeover post that I made a few minor updates to our fireplace, but I wanted to write a quick post specifically on this subject for future reference. This was a very minor but impactful change, and it was an easy DIY that I tackled myself – I was pleasantly surprised at how well it turned out!

  • Our Living Room

    May 6, 2020 Shannon Aycock

    This post has been a LONG time coming! I’ve said before that our home projects usually span over lengthy periods of time…I wasn’t kidding!

  • Maximizing Closet Space

    November 12, 2018 Shannon Aycock

    It should come as no surprise that I have a lot of clothes and shoes, and my closet is always overflowing…always.  My husband and I share a somewhat small walk-in closet, so it is a challenge trying to keep everything organized.  I actually have my clothes split up in two closets – I keep whatever is out of season in a closet in a guest room, and the in-season clothes in my actual closet.  My husband keeps telling me to…
