Our New Blue Coral Prints…

Whew what a week! Last week was just not my favorite thing ever. If you are just here to see some beautiful pictures and house updates, scroll down two more paragraphs ;-). If you are a regular here, I am about to get personal… So last Friday I had a colonoscopy. At the ripe ole’ age of 35. As I chatted about in “All Things Girlie… And I Do Mean ALL” last week, I have been on a mission to get to the bottom of my anemia issues. Okay that totally was the wrong word usage ;-). Hehehe. So anemia might not sound like the worst thing ever, and it’s not, BUT it definitely has some life altering symptoms that I am beyond tired of. Literally. It causes extreme fatigue among lots of other things and can get really dangerous if your blood levels drop dangerously low. SO I have been on the course of ruling out some things and looking into options to correct my iron levels. Hence the colonoscopy. As well as an upper GI to rule out Celiac Disease which I did test a “possible positive” for on bloodwork several weeks ago. I must say though that it was easy peasy. For real. If you have been putting off either procedure, call your doctor RIGHT NOW and schedule away. I was dreading it like something crazy but it was nothing! The prep day was not so fun but it ended up really not being that bad at all. And once I was at the surgery center on Friday and they put in my IV, all I really remember was being wheeled back and then waking up. And it was over! P.S. Eating Mexican for dinner that night is not recommended. Like I personally do not recommend it. Even if it is Cinco de Mayo. Oops!

So results… I found out immediately upon waking up, and after asking Mark the same question 45 times (supposedly), that my colonoscopy results were great! Yay! And yes, I cannot believe I am writing this on my blog. But you guys have been so sweet to follow along and share advice! I am still awaiting results on my Upper GI which was a bioposy that was sent off to test for Celiac Disease. Praying it is negative although I have decided to go completely gluten free on my own which I began right after my procedures. I know that Celiac would be a whole new level of gluten precautions but for now I am just avoiding actually eating it. So that is that and thank you all for your prayers!!! Up next is finding a way to stop my cycle. That will be fun. First step is an IUD and the SECOND attempt will be this week. Ugh, so far I think it’s WAY worse than my colonoscopy and upper GI COMBINED! Any thoughts my friends?

So today I am sharing a little nook between our living room and main hallway. I was inspired to make this little area cute after I found the most amazing blue coral prints for the re-launch of my Painted Fox Home Collection. I have curated an entire new set of gorgeous items for this collection based on our new home… Our Historic Wonderland… since the current collection is all from our former home. I am so obsessed with these prints that I wanted them front and center in our living area. On Saturday I had Mark hang them above a little blue bench I found at HomeGoods several months ago. I accessoried with some cute throw pillows and a throw blanket and Voila! Here a peek at the new space…

Oh and I will be announcing my Painted Fix Home RE-LAUNCH VERY SOON!!!

It may be five years later but this week Ab and I It may be five years later but this week Ab and I are finally finishing this tile! 🙌🏻 In my procrastination defense, I WAS going to put a shelf right there but then I changed my mind... 4 years and 11 months ago now 🤦🏻‍♀️ Better late than never! Excited to make 2021 the year I mark stuff off my list! 💗💗💗 What house project are YOU dying to get done this year?
My home is celebrating it’s 113th birthday and A My home is celebrating it’s 113th birthday and Ab and I are celebrating our first successful project of 2021 AND the first completed week of our new blog schedule! Yep, our penny tile mosaic super detailed tutorial and reveal is LIVE on the blog as well as three more posts this week. Pop over and sign up to follow along! P.S. If you’re wondering why I chose to orient the saying this way, I pondered it for a while. In the end I chose this way because we literally never ever use this back door. Anyone entering our home either comes through the front door where this is visible down the hallway, up the basement stairs where this greets them at the top or around through our laundry room or family room. Basically when your 1908 home has a million exterior doors, most end up going unused. HAPPY FRIDAY!!! ❤️ Oh and P.S.S. This wallpaper, trim color, artwork and all of the tile details are on the post!

Ever feel like you’re going to battle choosing a Ever feel like you’re going to battle choosing a paint color? 🙋🏻‍♀️ Looking for the perfect creamy white/blue-green gray combo and tested out quite a few today. What are your faves of either? Sharing some sneak peeks at our cabin progress and my design plan on stories today! Oh and the full reveal and detailed tutorial of the penny tile mosaic we were working on last week is live on the blog today!
Did a little rustic wood shopping over the weekend Did a little rustic wood shopping over the weekend which meant I just had to snag another cutting board 💗 See it over there looking all cute? I think this one just might be cutting board wall worthy! 😉 Sharing more of my finds on stories today. Several new projects coming soon from my finds too! Also thought I’d take this “cleaned my kitchen just for this picture” opportunity to answer two of my most asked questions... what is your cabinet color and what are your countertops? My cabinets are a 50/50 color mix I created when I was determined to find the perfect blue-gray mix. It’s a full strength, equal mix of SW Stardew and SW Uncertain Gray. My countertops are Calcutta Reale marble and I’m sharing all of my thoughts about marble in a kitchen on the blog! Link in bio!
2021 coming in HOT! 🔥 Ab and I both “showed u 2021 coming in HOT! 🔥 Ab and I both “showed up today” for a full day of work in a full face of makeup and well... THIS. Links anyone? John’s socks are mighty cozy! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Baby steps into the new year. Baby steps. In other news, my closet is next on the list for completion! A few finishing touches and I’ll finally share it all on the blog ❤️
P.S. For those about to ask, the built-ins are a 50/50 mix of SW Stardew and SW Uncertain Gray at full strength just like my kitchen cabinets and main level interior doors and the island is BM Dark Harbour. HAPPY FRIDAY!
Hello 2021! We are back and READY FOR IT ❤️ Ca Hello 2021! We are back and READY FOR IT ❤️ Can’t say I’ll miss 2020 or even 2019 quite honestly. So dang ready for a new year and all kinds of new beginnings. From new projects to new business ventures and all kinds of big personal life changes, hoping 2021 is everything we are all praying it can be. Today on stories we started our first project of 2021 that’ll hit the blog next week and I wrapped up my first soon-to-be weekly inspirational/motivational/personal/raw and super real blog post that’ll be live on Monday. Missed y’all! ❤️❤️❤️
All is Merry & Bright ❤️... My love for renova All is Merry & Bright ❤️... My love for renovations just went pint-sized! I cannot even tell you how much fun Ab and I have had on this mini little renovation. #ad Winter asked for a Barbie dreamhouse for Christmas and I just couldn’t hold back. The only problem was that I only had a day or so to go and we were still wrapping twine for chandeliers and spray painting furniture… oops! Thank GOODNESS for @walmart and Walmart+. By becoming a member of Walmart+, you can save nearly 2.5 hours per week with free delivery from your store on orders $35+ (Savings based on 3 store trips per week.

I needed a few extra dollhouse supplies and a few things for the party tonight so I hopped online and logged into my Walmart+ account. Sharing LOTS more on stories today! And, in other exciting news, Walmart+ recently introduced Walmart+ free shipping, no order minimum on items from Walmart.com with two-day or next-day shipping options (Excludes oversized/freight & Marketplace items)! #Walmartplus http://liketk.it/34yWz #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKhome http://liketk.it/34yWT
My very own sidekick WONDER WOMAN 👊🏻 This gi My very own sidekick WONDER WOMAN 👊🏻 This girl right here demoed out this entire cabin with her own two hands in 24 hours. A million pounds of junk and carpet and tack strips and everything in between. We just might have had a little fun on stories today documenting some of it too! Now it’s time for DESIGN!!! Eeeeekkkk!!!! If only y’all could’ve been a fly on the wall watching us take these pix 🤦🏻‍♀️ We finally decided, after a million failed attempts with a tiny phone tripod perched on the hood of my car, to video and then screenshot the best moment. Genius Ab. GENIUS!!!
