*This post contains affiliate links* This guest room was a labor of love! And while I know the dark and moody vibe isn’t everyones cup of tea (hints the 32 million views the video got on Facebook of people arguing in the comments that they either really loved the room or really really really hated…

Crown Moulding and Decor!
*This post contains affiliate links* I love the look of a chandelier, but we also live in Texas and it wouldn’t be right to leave our guests without a ceiling fan. Luckily I found the perfect fandelier for this guest room! A fandelier looks like a chandelier or a semi flush mount light, but has…
Choosing Paint and Wallpaper
*This post contains affiliate links* Choosing wallpaper is hard, but choosing a paint color is even harder! I knew I wanted to go with a green wallpaper, so I ordered some samples from Milton and King and put a pole up on Instagram. I was originally set on #1 (top left in the photo above)…
Board And Batten In The Guest Room
*This post contains affiliate links* I have wanted to add board and batten somewhere in my home for a long time. I finally decided to tackle the guest bedroom and I had a whole vintage vision for this room! This was my vision board for the room, you can find the links for this vision…
Refinishing An Old Bed Frame With Stripwell
*This post contains affiliate links* I had a vision for this guest bedroom and it included an old vintage style bed frame. I found this one on Facebook Marketplace and I knew it would work perfectly! But I’d have to strip the clear coat off of it. Something like this and this is the look…
Man Cave Reveal!
*This post contains affiliate links* This room has come such a long way from when we first bought the house! It went from being a blank canvas to a dark boring office with no real direction. And that awful builder yellow/beige color looked even worse when it was still on the ceiling with the blue…
Finishing Touches For The Man Cave
*This post contains affiliate links* The big things in the man cave are done (the Faux Roman Clay, the flooring, the cabinetry, etc.) Now it’s time for a few finishing touches. While I was away on one of my trips as a flight attendant, Tyler made a countertop for the cabinets out of cedar boards….
Adding Trim In The Man Cave
*This post contains affiliate links* Once the faux roman clay was done it was time to address the baseboards and window trim. When we moved in the windows had plantation shutters on them. While they are really pretty, they blocked a lot of natural light so I decided to remove them and trim out the…
New Flooring, Cabinetry and Faux Roman Clay!
*This post contains affiliate links* Initially, I laid the flooring starting at the back of the room before we bought cabinets, then I realized you have to add the cabinets prior to installing floating floors because the floors have to be able to expand and contract over time. So I got to work removing the…
Demo and Skim Coating is a Pain!
*This post contains affiliate links* We had this room we called an “office”, but it was rarely used and mainly just stored a bunch of junk. So we made plans of turning it into a masculine man cave/bike shop/whiskey bar! This is what it looked like when we first moved in. At one point I…
