Chapter 45: Living, laughing, and thriving! Here’s to another year of adventures, growth, and making memories that last a lifetime. Let the celebrations begin! 🥂 #thisis45 #birthdayqueen #cheerstome
HOW TO // DIY Pottery Barn Pumpkin 🎃 I’ve b HOW TO // DIY Pottery Barn Pumpkin 🎃 I’ve been wanting to make one of these terracotta dupe pumpkins for forever and when I found this gloriously big jack-o-lantern at JoAnn on sale, I knew it was time. It was super easy to do! I mixed a variety of paint colors until I was happy with the outcome.🎨 Then poured in some baking soda (measure with your heart) to give it a thicker consistency. Finally, I dusted more baking soda on the top. I tried a makeup brush to spread it out, but honestly, was easier to do by hand. 👋🏻 Save this post so you can try this out, even if you have to wait until next year. 😉 #potterybarnpumpkin #potterybarnstyle #fall #pumpkinseason #pumpkindecor #jackolantern #homedecor #seasonaldecor

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve done a fun project and we are currently partnering with @loweshomimprovement to give our dingy basement gym a makeover! #lowespartner #lowesproject We wanted to transform this unfinished space into a multifunctional family gym area that we can all use and benefit from.👟 Plus, I’m big on aesthetics, so I wanted something functional AND pretty. 💅🏻 Working within our budget, we plan to: 🤍 Brighten walls/ceiling with a fresh coat of Sherwin Williams Pure White paint 🤍 Paint the back wall w/ Sherwin Williams Tricorn Black to allow the pipes, battle rope, & tv to blend in 🤍 Install new Style Selections Florian Oak Wood Plank Laminate flooring 🤍 Add large wall mirrors (the dancer in me is soooo excited 🩰) 🤍 Build-in our freestanding sauna All product #affiliatelinks in bio. We have started the process by using our HomeRight Paint Sprayer, which has been a bit tedious, but much easier and quicker than rolling the paint on.
