Spare Bedroom REMODEL

We just remodeled one of our spare bedrooms that was honestly like a dumping ground. The difference is incredible and we didn't even do much! I know I wanted a bright white look (of course) so we painted the walls white, redid the floors, got new baseboards, and got a new dresser and then I incorporated random stuff from around the house in there too like the mirror and poof. I also posted a video of the entire remodel process. 1. Redo the floors Initially we were going to p

1 Year Kitchen Update After Painting My Cabinets and Countertops (+ VIDEO)

I've loved using Beyond Paint on my kitchen cabinets so we did the same in this bathroom and instantly it's a new vibe in here. Beyond Paint is basically a paint that doesn't require any stripping, or sanding. It's amazing and
