My Bohemian Bedroom Makeover: In Progress & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #657
My giant home makeover is well underway with the master bedroom finally getting some attention after completing my cloffice, the hallway, the dining room, the living room, the game room, and the boys’ bedroom. I began this huge project in January 2021 once I started to come out of the Covid lockdown blues and actually gained some motivation and momentum. It all started with my closet-office (cloffice) which is much more closet than an office these days since I prefer couch sitting over desk chair sitting. I have slowly made my way through all the main rooms, except my closet room, that required purely cosmetic makeovers before we begin the…

The Thrifty Six: Wearing Our Soul Colors
Jane chose the colors of your soul for this month’s thrifty theme and what a thought provoking style challenge it has proven itself to be. While green has been my forever favorite color for my entire life, it cannot stand alone as my soul color. My soul is much too diverse and complicated to be defined by one single hue. A more accurate depiction of my soul in colors would be a burst of every shade perceptible to the human eye because I really do love all the colors. Some I adore more than others while others come in and out of my preference depending on the day or the…

Road Tripping & Your Own Twist Link Up #57
Tomorrow is Take a Road Trip Day! Since we are leaving today for our annual road trip to Smoked Country Jam Bluegrass Festival in the Pennsylvania wilderness, I figured this was a great time to create a cute, comfortable outfit for 5 hours in the car. The weather is looking to be mild with lows around 50˚F (10˚C) at night and highs around 75˚F (24˚C) during the day with rain flitting in and out of the forecast. So layers will be necessary because I get too cold at 65˚ and too hot at 75˚. I threw together this easy outfit with my favorite tie dye joggers from Rainbow Zen. I…
