Faux Wall Moldings

February 6, 2014 By Jenna 90 Comments

Today, you get to see another little piece of the guest bedroom and office.

I’m still not quite done with the rest of the room as I told you on Tuesday, but I’m hoping I get to show you a full reveal next week.

When I began plotting out this room makeover, I found some great inspiration photos on Pinterest. If you follow me there, you may have noticed I pinned a lot of black and white rooms that had some great black wall moldings.

Here’s the problem with wall moldings –

they can be expensive.

My solution?

Faux wall moldings made with FrogTape* and glossy black paint.

$15 Hutch Makeover via RainonaTinRoof.com #makeover

$15 Hutch Update

January 31, 2014 By Jenna 28 Comments

I remember it sitting in the corner of my Hey Bud’s dining room.

I remember my dad insisting it could be moved when my Hey Bud died.

I remember it sitting in our garage waiting on a new home.

I remember my dad painting it white when he moved it into his new house.

I remember moving it back to my Hey Bud’s house after I remodeled it.

I remember Grunt Labor standing in front of it the first time he saw it and proclaiming it a future liquor cabinet.

And I remember the look on Grunt Labor and Nick’s faces when I told them it was my great grandmother’s china cabinet, while they had hammers in mid-swing knocking out one of its shelves.

Grannie Eva, it may not be a china cabinet anymore, but its still one of my most beloved pieces.

And the fact that I named my kid after you, makes up for me making it into a liquor cabinet, right?

This piece has seen many transformations in its time. The latest hutch update cost less than $15, but made a huge impact.

Vintage Modern Rustic Living Room

January 28, 2014 By Jenna 52 Comments

Our current home, the beloved rancher, has been the house that has taught me what my style truly is – not to say it won’t change a little over time.

It always does.

My style is a mix of Vintage, Modern, and Rustic that somehow all work well together and allow me to keep those family heirlooms that tell a story.

Here’s my Vintage Modern Rustic Living Room where we spend most of our time. Quite a few things have changed since the last home tour.

DIY Lucite Trays {Under $5 in 15 minutes} via RainonaTinRoof.com

DIY Acrylic / Lucite Trays for $5 or less in 5 minutes!

January 24, 2014 By Jenna 88 Comments

This week’s 15 on Friday, I think, is FAB.

See, I have this thing for lucite. When Grunt Labor asked me what lucite was, my response was, “Its the stuff dreams are made of.”

Obsessed much? Probably too much.

For Christmas, I asked for a plethora of lucite items from Anthropologie. One being this tape dispenser* (that I got!) and another one, this lucite tray*. Friends, that tray is $44. You can get this one* cheaper – its $25.

Or, you could make your own DIY lucite tray for $5 and in less than 15 minutes.

And you can make the bottom prettier than those other ones.

We have a winner! {Insert Price is Right theme song here}

DIY Kitchen Island with salvaged wood

January 22, 2014 By Jenna 73 Comments

Every time I post about my kitchen, it seems that you guys love the island the most.

And I love that you love it the most.

That piece is pretty special to me.

So special that I regularly threaten to be laid out on it when I die.

{Insert Grunt Labor rolling his eyes here.}

If you have read about the full kitchen makeover renovation, you know it has come a really long way. We knocked down walls, moved appliances, painted cabinets, took out cabinets, dealt with rude plumbers and much more.

And it was all worth it.

So, here is how we built the kitchen island.
