Southeastern Showhouse 2024 – Main Floor – Part 1
I just went to the Southeastern Showhouse in Atlanta this past weekend and let me tell you, it was fabulous.

One Room Challenge Week #7 Spring 2024 – I Can’t Stand The Rain
It’s Week #7 of the One Room Challenge! If you haven’t been following along, this challenge was created by LInda Weinstein in 2011 and she had the idea to get some of her online friends together and challenge themselves to focus on finishing one room from start to finish. The challenge is 8 weeks long, so the great reveal is next week.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
