POV: your kid is obsessed with cooking shows and absolutely humbles you in the kitchen… I am not the best cook. I learned how to cook not that long ago and openly admit it. I do involve them in cooking as much as I can. My youngest though absolutely loves and researches this stuff. I clearly need to be watching more cooking shows 😅 #cooking #cookingtips #homecooking #momlife

I LOVE big artwork in homes but it’s not cheap. The only way I have been able to bring oversized art into my home is by using #peelandstickwallpaper that I frame out with box molding. This is a #renterfriendly #budgetfriendly #DIY if you install it on the wall but to make it easy to move I would take the time to build a base (plywood or foam board) and frame it with molding. I just find installing it on the wall easier for me! My go to places for scalable murals is Photowall and Wall Blush! Both are featured in this video. #homedecor #homeart #homeideas #easydiy #beingtheblooms

I have never used a drywall anchor to hang a picture or mirror… and I will probably make someone angry by saying that. The reality is I don’t see the need to do that when there is a much simpler solution that doesn’t require a ton of effort. Over here I want home decorating to be approachable and easy… and this makes hanging pictures and mirrors approachable and easy! #homedecor #DIY #easydiy #renterfriendly #homeideas #beingtheblooms #homestyling #howto #homeimprovement

Did I find an affordable fabric #peelandstickwallpaper YES!! Here is everything you need to know about it… - It’s actually very easy to install because of how forgiving this material is. It’s easier to work with than vinyl in my opinion. This is a beginner friendly #DIY - I believe this to be #renterfriendly based off my initial rip tests BUT I can’t say for sure until it’s up for a while and I remove it. It is promising though! - This is a #budgetfriendly #wallpaper because you can buy a 98”x148” mural style for $189. I only bought 2 panels so it was $84. That is soo cheap for how good this stuff is. - They do have other designs and colors but not a lot because this brand Zeeko has only been around for 6 months from what I can tell. I have compiled a list of all the designs it looks like they offer they have been added to the Amazon wallpaper section on my website! I will see you tomorrow as I continue on with the $400 #diningroom and #kitchen #roommakeover #homedecor #homeideas

Replying to @sami_von_jami If you are like me and not a fan of mirrored closet doors you can absolutely put #peelanfstickwallpaper on them! You can have fun with this! It can easily be changed up as your style evolves. I have done patterns in the past or you can find the more realistic styles like I tried here (there is a lot of wood embossed peel and stick on the market in different styles now). The #peelandstick handles are just an added touch but not necessary. This is also a #budgetfriendly #renterfriendly #DIY so even if you don’t own your place you can do this! #homedecor #homeideas

My #kitchen is literally the only room in this house I put a lot of money into over the last 3 years. I had basically not touched it or done anything new in this space until that cabinet broke… seeing the dark wood tones added into the space made me want to add more richness in here so that is what we are doing!! I have the foundation/vision for this #roommakeover and I set my budget at $400, but I am taking it creatively day by day. I have the most fun pulling rooms together as we go along! Trust the process over the next few weeks because I promise it will be fun! #budgetfriendly #DIY #homeideas #homeimprovement #eclecticdecor #eclectichome

I decided to go with a safe choice for the #kitchen island refresh and use #peelandstickwallpaper again. Why!? I have a hard time committing to permanent changes until I am sure it is something I want. If your new here am playing with the idea of bringing more wood tones into my kitchen. I was able to do that with $30 and a few hours of my time. Also, this is definitely a #renterfriendly #DIY and outside of it being #homedecor the wallpaper actually keeps my paint clean from the scuffing that happens from sitting at the barstools! This stuff is super easy to wipe clean!

This is literally all within 1 year… it’s been so fun to watch! When we needed to go get her a bigger bag (she has 13 clubs now 🫠) she wanted another @Sunday Golf bag because it’s what she has had from the beginning and loves them. These really are great bags for the price so I am obviously a fan of that! #golf #golflife #golfobsession #golfer #golftiktok #golfaddict #golfswag #golftime

Welcome back to brutally honest #peelandstick reviews… today is a #peelandsticktile that claims it can pretty much be put on every surface and can go in a shower. They also claim to be eco friendly… which is interesting to me considering the materials and adhesives required to create the durability they claim. I also didn’t even go down the road of anti-mold claims because that’s a pretty messy topic when talking about these being exposed to water, water potentially seeping in the foam, and what your ventilation/humidity is like. I live in AZ with high ceilings + good ventilation my risks for mold is already lower because of my personal living situation. I personally don’t think these are anything special right now and definitely not a #budgetfriendly #renterfriendly #DIY #homeproject unless you put up a barrier. I am going to be installing a tile next and testing it in my shower. As always, i will keep you updated!

Let’s try and save @RobynSchallComic deposit… I am very loud about my hatered for the foam #peelandsticktile because they are the worst! The only way I know how to get these off is with a floor scraper that has basically a razor blade edge. The sharp edge can get underneath and cut through the adhesive (hopefully). It will be a ton of work… but I really hope this works! #renterfriendly #DIY #homedecor #peelandstick

If I can build a frame for a mirror so can you! This is a #budgetfriendly #easydiy that is also a #renterfriendly #DIY What you need: 1. Molding of your choice (Home Depot and Lowe’s has rows of it. I don’t have a Lowe’s close by so I go to Home Depot) 2. Miter Box (comes with the saw for $20) 3. Flat corner L brackets (they come in packs of 4 for $3) 4. Pack of command strips This is the end of my frame series! I hope you enjoyed this weeks #homeideas breakdowns. I will see you next week with new breakdowns! #homedecor #homeimprovement #homedesign #homedecoration #diyprojects #diyhomedecor

Welcome to Crockpot Wednesday! I jokingly call my #crockpot BFF because I will forever love a good crockpot meal. If I didn’t have this I would be grabbing fast food or cooking dinner tell 9pm on our busy days. This particular recipe is one I found on Pinterest years ago & is in my rotation of favorite #crockpotmeals #kitchen #kitchengadgets #EasyRecipes #healthyrecipes #busymomlife #recipeideas

Welcome back to the hot mess I made yesterday in the #budgetfriendly #kitchenmakeover We are looking good… I get to cook dinner tonight and start on the new backsplash tomorrow!! I haven’t told anyone (including my husband 😅) that I chose blackish backsplash!! I didn’t just go through all this work to get rid of my white backsplash to replace it with another white. How are we feeling about this? Are we excited or scared!? #DIY #homedecor #homeimprovement #homeideas

I have never been a good #housewife I jumped into a really intense career shortly after Lily was born. I was obsessed with the idea of being a young mom with a big career… I had the big career eventually but I absolutely sucked at managing my home. It truly wasn’t until 2020 that I took a step back and realized I was struggling. I still struggle now even though I left my career but I am doing so much better!! Plus… I am much happier #cleaning #homedecor #homelife #homeideas #Vlog #stayathomemom

I am the girl who loves snuggling with my fur baby on my sofa but also cleans it every day… Penelope won’t stay on blankets she likes to lay on the sofa. She will absolutely walk right past a blanket to a piece of the sofa exposed or dig past the blankets to reach the sofa 😬 I stopped caring and just made it part of my morning routine to clean the sofa. I highly recommend this #cleaning gadget for fabric furniture and mattresses. As always, I have added it to my Amazon storefront linked in my bio! #amazonhome #amazonfinds #dogmomlife #cleaningtips #homedecor #homeideas

Today didn't quite go as planned in my #budgetfriendly #kitchenmakeover. I knew removing these would take some paint off the wall, but I didn't expect the fix to be this extensive! That's just part of #DIY #homeprojects, right? Tonight, I'll finish sanding and seal the wall with primer/paint. Skipping the traditional backsplash install is why I'm putting in the extra effort. I promise this will make sense once you see what I am doing with this backsplash!

Honestly… I gave myself the nickname “lazy diy mom” because I enjoy doing #homedecor #DIY that’s not complicated. Is hanging shelves that complicated? Heck no anyone can do it. It is just one of those projects I don’t enjoy doing. Hanging those 4 shelves took me an embarrassing amount of time to do… Was hiding the TV cord and hanging the mirror super easy and only took a few minutes? Yup!! I love it when I can do something really fast that has a decent amount of aesthetic impact on a room. Anyways… I am back in this room finishing it up (finally) so tomorrow we get to start decorating! #budgetfriendly #renterfriendly #homeideas #peelandstick #homeimprovement

It’s time… I need to find my passion again and fall back in love with my home. We will be going on this journey together! I hope to not only inspire myself through this process but inspire others to create a home they love! #homedecor #budgetfriendly #DIY #renterfriendly #homeimprovement #homeproject

It has been 2 YEARS since I installed #peelandsticktile in my #shower and it’s doing good!! I get asked about updates on this project the most… probably because it was a little bit sketchy. 98% of it is still in perfect condition but I do have an iffy spot due to a poor install on my end. I can replace those panels if I want but don’t be mad… I am thinking about taking this down and testing a new product in here! Do we think I should do that!? Also, the #peelandstickwallpaper has held up in this bathroom and is doing soo good! This is part of my collection with Wall Blush This was a successful #renterfriendly #budgetfriendly #DIY but it’s incredibly important you purchase the exact tiles I used because they are rated for showers (according to the brand Art3d) but not all of the ones they make are. I have these exact ones always linked up in my b!0

This is kinda a big deal… I bought a saw! I am convinced dremel developed this for me even though they don’t know me. It’s literally the only saw I have ever wanted to buy. This was so incredibly easy to use! I know my people here could buy this and start doing more complex #DIY #homeimprovement with out any prior skills. You can also use this in an apartment which is so important to me personally since I do a lot of #renterfriendly #homedecor I mentioned it was #budgetfriendly because this entire kit is $149 which I think is an incredibly fair price!
