Perfectly Imperfect Mom

I have been meaning to get pictures up of Ace's room for forever. I finally took some and here they are! I tried to find products that are similar to the one we have since a lot of the things I bought awhile ago.

The DREAM sign I got from Pier 1 about 3 years ago. I love it for his room.

I took wood letters from Michaels and spray paint them silver. The shelf is from Home Goods. I love the look of it. Such a good find.

This dresser was my sisters. Its definitely seen better days but I love how big it is and is a really sturdy wood. I eventually would love to paint and distress it. The Uncle Sam painting my Dad painting when he was younger. He gave it to me when I was probably 16. It's one of my most treasured items.

Oh hey there! Just me popping in again since I am forever MIA it seems like.

We have been super busy lately. The most exciting thing for me right now is Ashlyn and Everly's nursery! We are not even close to being done but we got things started on it the past week. Branden painted it, got the curtains up and we got their bedding. I am obsessed with it.

I had been eyeing this bedding for forever but I just kept thing maybe I wanted a more plain bed flowy type bedding but gave up and went with my original plan.

Here is the one side of the room, we still need to get their dresser upstairs and hang somethings on the walls but you can see the rocker and curtains. I am obsessed with the curtains .

And here is their bedding, sorry the quality sucks but this was taken form my Instagram! I am so in love with it. They had a super good deal on the 4 Piece Crib Bedding Set on Amazon and thank God since we bought two sets. Babies R Us had it too but it was way more. I love Amazon!! We also have Amazon Prime so we got free shipping, woot!!

More photos coming soon. We will be finishing it up within the next week. We still need to get their monograms painted and up and then their dresser/changing table in there.

 photo ScreenShot2013-09-05at35350PM_zps370f73f3.pngHome remodeling is a wonderful way to increase the value of your home, but it's important not to go overboard and spend more than you end up gaining in value. Kitchens and bathrooms are the areas that tend to look dated the fastest, so these are the areas that homeowners are most likely to remodel. Be sure to plan your remodeling project carefully and have a realistic budget before you begin. 

Start Small 

The things that people notice the most in other people's homes are often the smallest details. Just putting new pulls on your drawers and handles on your cabinets can bring a fresh look to your kitchen or bathroom. The hardware is inexpensive, and most people can change it themselves with little effort. You can install new covers on all your switch plates at the same time to update your rooms in just a few hours. 

Rearrange Your Furniture or Appliances 

Simply rearranging a room can give it a completely different look and feel. It's difficult to rearrange your kitchen because of the fixtures, but you can give your bedroom, living room or office an entirely different feel by changing the way the furniture is arranged. You may need to store a few things in your garage or outside while you are reorganizing, so pay closer attention to your home security to keep your belongings safe. 

Add Mirrors and Lighting 

One of the biggest complaints that many homeowners have about their homes is the lack of natural light. Adding more windows to your home may be an option, but it is expensive and time consuming. Another option is to add a mirror on the wall opposite every window in your home to reflect the natural light. You can also add more lighting to dark corners and hallways to increase the amount of light in your home. 

Redecorate 

Replacing the decor items in your room with a new theme is another inexpensive way to change the look and feel of your home. Be sure to clear all of your old decor items out before adding new ones so that your spaces don't end up looking cluttered and disorganized. Recovering your furniture or adding new accent pillows also changes the look of the room. A fresh coat of paint and new window blinds or curtains finish the updated look of any room. Repainting a room has a huge impact on how it looks and paint offers a big bang for your remodeling buck.

If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you probably have been getting a sneak peak at how our house is coming along.


I am so obsessed with our dining room. It came out better than I imagined! The picture is on the blurry side since this was from my Instagram so I will get better pictures once we are done with it.

We still need to get curtains and some wall decor for the opposite wall. No clue what I am putting there.
Our table also needs a bench for the side closest to the sideboard table.

Anyone else have any new home updates?

If you follow me on Facebook then you probably already saw this picture. Since moving into our new house we have been trying to decide on paint colors and decor. It's been tough since we went from a one story house to a two story home with very high ceilings. We love the space and look of our new house but it has been a challenge. The main challenge is our playroom which took the place of a formal living room.

This room has the highest ceilings and attaches to the dining room. We bought these curtains which gave us a basis for colors. I loved the idea of blue and reds together for the playroom. It is kid and adult friendly.

I love the playroom above. It is my inspiration for Ace's playroom. I love, love, love the red frame with the fabric pieces inside it.
