You guys. It’s the final week of my first ever One Room Challenge. Hard to believe that I started this little project six weeks ago. Almost harder to believe that I managed to put up a blog post for 6 consecutive weeks (plus one bonus post, it may be a record!)

If you missed it, Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5

I am so excited to share this with you, I could pee my pants! It turned out even dreamier than I was hoping. But first…

Huge thanks to Linda at Calling it Home, for hosting such an awesome event and letting Joe Schmos like me get in on the action. Between the weekly deadlines, the encouragement from other participants, and the inspiration from all of the other transformations going on, this was just the kick in the ass that I needed to make some serious changes to our overly dark and slightly drab master bedroom.

I started here with this mood board, and a sort of to-do list. Meaning, some to-dos, and some possibly/maybe to-dos.

ORC: Cozy Neutral Bedroom Week 5

I don’t know about you guys, but I think winter has officially arrived in Wyoming. It’s always kind of sad when the time changes and we say goodbye to daylight after work for approximately the next 4 or so months. It also started raining this afternoon, and the rain is supposed to turn to snow overnight. So yeah. I think our long beautiful fall days (which we were spoiled with this year) are over.

On the bright side, it’s getting to be perfect weather for cuddling up! And our bedroom is looking super cozy these days, since we’re now 5 weeks in to our One Room Challenge bedroom makeover. Spoiler alert: Reagan likes it too.

Dog Blog Wednesday – If your dog is bored, keep your kitchen extra clean

Hey, happy Wednesday. What is Reagan doing? EATING EVERYTHING SHE CAN GET HER PAWS ON! 

Including, but not limited to:

  • Bacon grease
  • Paper towels
  • Coffee grounds
  • Dog treats
  • Chocolate truffles
  • Endurolytes

Our super crafty border collie has taken up a new hobby, called getting into the trash and strewing it all over the kitchen. We got this lovely red trash can from Crate and Barrel as a wedding gift (that’s right, we registered for a trash can, we’re grown-ups).

Dog Blog Wednesday!

Welcome to Dog Blog Wednesday! Where we get to see what Reagan is up to. Because who doesn’t love a border collie, on a blog, on a Wednesday? So, you’ve met Reagan. She’s 4 years old, will be 5 next month! And she is crazy as ever. She’s a blue merle, 100% border collie. This is surprising to a lot of people, as this is a fairly rare coloring for borders. I’d say 75% of people we run into on the street who comment on our dog, guess that she’s an australian shepherd. I can see why, I mean, look at the resemblance.
