I'm kind of an obsessive re-arranger. It is one of those things I do. I've been that way as long as I can remember. Me and my bestie would rearrange our rooms and make plans to decorate it on a shoestring budget monthly. Oh, and I was 11. So it comes as no surprise that the living room just got rearranged again. Love this gallery wall surrounding the TV. With a few tweaks, the gallery wall stayed, but the TV left. I picked up this giant frame at Goodwill. I popped out the ...

Boy Room Updates & Locker
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Gladiator® GarageWorks for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. It is no secret that we are big Badger fans around here.

We were able to spend the day at the Museum of Science and Industry and then grab dinner and dessert in the city before shooting up 94 ...
Goodwill Nightstands

A good scrub, a rub down with some tinted furniture polish and some fresh hardware and we were in business. I adore the cute little wheeled furniture ...
Things I Failed to Blog
As I am sharing pictures here and there, I am realizing there are things I never blogged about. Little updates and tweaks here and there--Like the addition of this wall mounted lamp to our TV gallery wall -- that I never told you about. That little addition not only added light, but freed up some space on the console for my Scentsy warmer and a wood bowl to hold all the remotes. Maybe I mentioned the new rug? It felt super risky to buy a patterned rug, but I love how it looks. ...
