I have this thing for multifunctional home decor and lately jewelry storage mirrors have been catching my eye. Not only are these mirrors the perfect addition to any space, they protect, organize AND hide your jewelry. I really really want THIS one but I also need to go back to school so it’s going to have to wait for a while. I’m not sure how it will
Hello and welcome back to the second installment of the One Room Challenge of Spring 2016! I know I know it’s only a few weeks late but you guys to say I’ve been busy is an understatement. I was sick the week this was supposed to go live and this past week the 500 year flood…the second one this year…hit Houston. I was stuck at work
Surprise! Welcome to my new site. It’s still not finished but it’s so much better than my old space! If you are new to my blog and popping over from the One Room Challenge linkup from Calling it Home, HI! I’m Lura. I’m a fur mom and a wife and I am a jane of all trades. I run, sew, build things, train dogs (except when my
Fact: I don’t have kids but working in pediatrics has taught me a lot about baby vomit (especially on nights when I’m working in the NICU). Any parent can tell you that babies throw up a lot and if you aren’t prepared things can get a little messy. I have a really great friend who is expecting her first baby and this weekend was her
Happy Monday! I feel like the weekend flew by so fast! I’m working Sunday night but I’m off on Monday thankfully. When you read this, I will likely be sleeping…can NOT wait to go to day shift! I really enjoy doing weekend recaps and it’s been ages since I’ve done one so here we go. One On Friday I woke up to dogs barking at
If you’re like me, at least one of your kitchen drawers is a mess. I have a few more than one but I digress. And thanks to my friend Amber’s project linkup (using jars!), I’m conquering the most organized drawer by finding a new storage solution for our cupcake, muffin liners. I don’t know why I didn’t do this sooner…it was so easy and it
I love boxwood wreaths but I could never see myself buying a live one to try to keep alive or you can drop some pretty money and buy yourself a preserved one. I decided to challenge myself and make my own…out of paper. I’ve seen a few other DIY paper wreaths and I was completely inspired! Keep reading to see how the project went down…our tutorials
We purchased our home with the intention of making it our own. A lot of things are outdated and we are slowly changing things as we learn what works best for us. And while we’ve been living here for four years now, it’s still a work in progress…(will it ever NOT be a work in progress?) Changing out light fixtures is something we did recently
While most bloggers are breaking out the Christmas decor (thanks to the Pinterest editorial calendar), I’m still over here celebrating Fall and the fact that I could still swim in our pool if I wanted. With two dogs in our house, canned pumpkin is a staple year-round. Both of them are completely obsessed with it and it goes without saying that it’s good for them.
Soon after Hurricane Katrina, I had the chance to travel to New Orleans in an effort to help rebuild the city. I’ve been wanting to write this post since I started blogging but I’ve been hesitant to share. Sometimes strangers behind keyboards can be quite cruel. As cliche as it may sound, the words used to write this post are very hard to find because
