Home Tour

1M Flares 1M Flares ×

Welcome to our lovely home where we constantly have naked children running around.

Ahem.

Hey, laundry is not my favorite past-time. If you have boys then you know that…clothes…are optional until you are five.

I try to keep my house fairly picked up and clean. You know, just in case you were to pop in and say hello. But, my kids? I can’t always promise you they are “visitor ready”. In fact, they will most likely need 3 minutes to throw on some pants.

We built our home in 2010 and ever since…I’ve had my dad working on a constant Pinterest project. Pinterest…the devil. Ha!

Lucky for us, he is free labor. I wouldn’t have been able to do HALF of the stuff in our home if it weren’t for his free labor.

Free labor and my bargain shopping skills. Holla!

Looks just like the one I purchased online from Target.com. Search for damask glider or recliner. If they still have it, it should pop up.

It is from Poshtots.com and it’s the Regal Loose in Ophelia Dove! :)

Reply

Mandy July 3, 2012 at 12:38 pm

Thanks so much! It is a king and the color is not black (although it basically looks black). It was suppose to be a deep brown, but it definitely looks black…even in person. We got our bedroom set at Ashley Furniture.

Courtney July 3, 2012 at 8:50 am

Hi! i just found your site and love spending time on it :) My husband and I just bought our first house and it’s a complete blank slate. I don’t know where to start! When thinking about paint colors, how do I make sure the whole house coordinates? HELP !!

Reply

Mandy July 3, 2012 at 9:45 pm

I would by no means call myself a paint expert :) …but the best part about paint? You can always repaint if you hate your choice! Haha! I used the Sherwin Williams website where you can play with different colors and different rooms. It helps a ton! http://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/try-on-colors/color-visualizer/

I posted in a reply to a earlier post but figured I should just post my own – haha. I LOVE your master bedroom. I have not a one creative bone in my body and have been looking for inspiration for over a year. Your room – no your house is it! :) How long ago did you find your comforter at Ikea? Your home is beautiful!!! Do you have a good recommendation of where to find pillows and curtains similar to what you have in your MBR? thx much!

Reply

Mandy July 5, 2012 at 3:30 pm

Wow! Thank you very much! I got the comforter over 9 months ago so I am not sure they would still have it. I always get my pillows at Home Goods or TJ Maxx! Throw pillows can be so overpriced so I wait for good deals.

Ellen July 5, 2012 at 8:51 pm

I now have house envy…you are so talented at bringing all the colors and patterns together. Love everything! Can you tell me what colors you used in the kitchen – walls and the pillars. Would love to try this in my kitchen.

Hey Mandy,
Love your bedroom!!! What color curtains do you have? are they brown like the wall? Also, the corner shelves on the left, where did you get those, or did your dad make?

Reply

Mandy July 10, 2012 at 9:15 pm

The curtains are a very dark brown (almost the same as the wall) and I got them at Pier 1. The corner shelves were built by my dad. Thanks for your compliments on my bedroom!

Reply

Shuna July 11, 2012 at 3:32 pm

Great job! Your home is BEAUTIFUL!! I was wondering though, about the small corner shelves in your bedroom that your dad built. How did you mount them without showing hardware?? LOVE them!

Reply

Mandy July 12, 2012 at 11:48 am

Thank you! They are floating shelves that he built…and I just convinced him to write up a tutorial on how he did it. :) Hopefully I can post it soon!

Love your bedroom! I see from previous replies that you got your headboard from Ashley Furniture. Any idea on what the brand name was?

Thank you! It’s been over 8 years ago so I really have no idea. I’m sorry!!

Do you remember the style name of your bed from Ashley? How long ago did you get your bed! LOOOOOOOOVE it!!

Reply

Mandy July 16, 2012 at 7:03 am

Thank you! We bought it over 8 years ago so I really couldn’t tell you the style name. My guess is they don’t have the same one anymore, but I am sure you can find something similar. It’s “sleigh” style, if that helps.

Reply

Heather July 16, 2012 at 10:44 am

The Ashley website directed me to the Pilgrim furnature store who had a bed very similar to yours. We’ve been looking for months. So we bought it yesterday! So excited! Glad I found your blog on pinterest!

Reply

Mandy July 17, 2012 at 10:02 pm

Awesome! Glad you found something similar!
