Good morning and welcome to Week Five of the One Room Challenge hosted by Calling it Home. I’m so happy I decided to participate in this challenge. I mentioned in my Week One post that our bedroom always seems to be the last room in the house to get any love. So this challenge has…
DIY Rustic Industrial Shelf
Since we moved into our home three years ago my wife has been styling the buffet in our dining room but she could never get it quite right. We needed something to fill the space above the sideboard to help make the room feel more inviting and not as stark. Because our dining room and…
One Room Challenge (Week Four)
Wow! It’s Week Four of the One Room Challenge already. And I’m late with posting my update. Life around our house has been busy lately. We are diligently working away on our bedroom for the One Room Challenge. In the process of updating our blog (tomorrow we will have a whole new look – so…
One Room Challenge (Week Three)
I can’t believe it’s Week Three of the One Room Challenge hosted by Linda at Calling It Home. We chose to tackle our master bedroom and we are finally starting to make some progress on our room. If you haven’t been following along you can read about our plans here and here. I’m finding a…

It’s week two of Calling it Home’s One Room Challenge! If you missed last week’s post or you haven’t heard of the One Room Challenge before I’ll give you a brief introduction. Twenty talented designers have committed to documenting their progress transforming a room (either one of their own or that of a client) in…
Maple Banana Bread
If you’re anything like us we always have bananas sitting around until they are too ripe to eat. I hate wasting food, so they usually end up in the freezer with good intentions of using them to whip up a batch of banana chocolate chip muffins or a loaf. Banana bread is a great way…

Gender Neutral Safari Nursery
I had so much fun planning and decorating the gender neutral safari nursery for our newest family member, although it wasn’t without its challenges. If you have been following us for a while now you will know we decided not to find out the gender of our baby while I was pregnant. Designing a gender…
Greek Orange Biscuits
Every Easter my mother-in-law makes the most delicious Greek Orange Biscuits. These traditional biscuits, called Koulourakia Me Portokali, are pure heavenly goodness! They are so full of flavor and a wonderful combination of citrus and sweetness. Choosing the juiciest oranges for this recipe will make the best biscuits! The orange zest just takes the flavor…
Easy DIY Succulent Gardens
With spring just around the corner, I’ve happily been adding pops of colour and some much needed personality throughout our home after our very long and very cold winter. Last week I wrote about how I use plants to brighten up our home for the spring. I featured a few photos of the succulent terrariums…
Decorating with Plants
Spring is only a few weeks away and with it will come sunshine, blooming trees and bright, beautiful flowers! These are a few things I’ve desperately missed over the past five months. Thinking about all of that natural beauty inspired me to brighten up our home…and maybe (hopefully) entice spring to arrive sooner rather than…
Living Room Spring Update
During the long, cold winter months I make sure our home is cozy and inviting. I layer extra snugly throws around the living room and bedrooms, light candles to ward off the cold and tend to decorate with a minimalistic approach to match the barren, wintry landscape out our windows. Outside are freezing temperatures and…
