Last weeks Gallery Wall Wednesday post technically featured the last of my homes gallery walls with my husbands office. You can see the other gallery walls in my home here, here, here, and here. This week I am going to stray from the technical definition of gallery wall with a glimpse of my built-ins. If […]

I have been working on decorating my guest bathroom lately which has also got me thinking about what I want to do with our guest room. Given it really isn’t used much, but right now it is just a hodge podge of different items that didn’t work well in the rest of the house and […]

The weather here in central Texas has been on and off rain for at least a week or two and looks to be continuing for the next 10 days. Which is great for our drought, but not so good for our front yard landscaping plans. Between rainstorms this weekend, we were able to finalize and […]

  I purchased our standard black and silver dining table from Ikea roughly 9 years ago. I loved it for a while, but after having kids, it had seen better days. After we moved, I just threw a table cloth on it hoping that I would eventually find a replacement. But I haven’t been able […]

My daughter and I were able to squeeze a little baking in during my sons nap the other day, so we decided to make some fun sugar cookies. After pulling out all of my sprinkles and sanding sugars, I thought of the idea of using my sanding sugars to create an ombre effect on the […]

Hello! It’s gallery wall Wednesday! It’s me, Kara’s mysterious, nameless, faceless husband doing a guest post!  This is the main gallery wall in my room.  My room houses my comic books, music equipment, craft supplies (*ahem* comradecards.etsy.com *ahem*), and action figures.  And a futon. And lots of crumbs.  And my shame.  I looove Star Wars, […]

If you are like me you have a ton of jewelry and could always use another way to store your stash. Well, today I am going to show you how to take a plain white box and turn it into something worthy of holding your valuables. To make your own tribal jewelry box you will […]

My main front yard inspiration by Rogerslandscapedesign.com Since I last told you about our spur of the moment front yard landscaping project last week, not much has happened. We have had some unpredictable patches of rain this last week which have kept the outdoor projects to a minimum. But we were able to plant a […]

  If you follow me in Instagram (and if you don’t, you really should, @kailochic), you may have seen that I was playing around with polymer clay yesterday. Yes, I am sharing with you yet another fun thing to do with clay. But this time it is of the oven baked variety. I used the […]

I am so excited for todays DIY project. After making the gold geometric door pulls a few weeks back, I got hit with an idea to use the same technique to make a gold handled cheese knife with a coordinating gold serving plate. They turned out better than I could have hoped for, so I […]

It’s that time again. Time for another Gallery Wall Wednesday post. This week we are taking a look at my living room wall.   I am honestly not sure how to classify this gallery wall other than to say that it is a jewel toned bohemian-esque space. It really is just a gathering of different prints […]

Go ahead and make your own and celebrate! Avocado Cholula Deviled Eggs: 6 hard boiled eggs 1/8 cup mayo 1/4 of a large avocado 1/8 tsp Tony Chachere’s […]
