I built a countertop hutch with sliding pocket doors made out of paint stir sticks for the coffee bar, plus I built the cabinets out to surround the fridge and additional storage above the fridge for large cutting boards, baking pans, pizza stones and more. This was a high impact remodel. I loved building and growing my skills!

We Lowered Our Bar to Countertop Height!

Living Room Reveal
*This post contains affiliate links* Just a few changes in this living room, but I love it so much more now! It just feels so warm and cozy. When we first moved in I painted the whole house light grey because that’s what was “in”, but I left the ceiling the builder yellow/beige color because…

DIY Built-In Bar
*This post contains affiliate links* I had this weird awkward angled wall that I didn’t really know what to do with, until I saw this built-in shelving that Nida built in her dining room and I fell in love with it! Once I saw that, it just clicked and I knew exactly what I was…
DIY Nesting Herringbone Coffee Tables + Plans
