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.

Litter Box Entryway Bench
*This post contains affiliate links* We had this long blank wall in our entryway that was begging for some decor. We don’t have many good places for Ellie’s litter box in our house, so I thought this would be the perfect place to hide it. The first thing we did when we moved in was…

Hallway Reveal!
*This post contains affiliate links* These two hallways have evolved over time with little changes here and there and I really love how it’s turned out so far! I still have a few small things I want to do (like getting a larger washable runner), but for now, we can mark it as “done”. Here’s…
