We still have quite a lit to do, but the room feels so different already!

I've always wanted to join the @oneroomchallenge, I've always wanted to join the @oneroomchallenge, and now finally I am! We are renovating our home office! This room really needed some love, especially after we've been working from home for the last couple of months. We are doing some big projects and a couple of smaller projects - my full design plan is up on the blog! Swipe to see some of my plans and the messy before. #homeoffice #diyhomeoffice #oneroomchallenge #bhgorc #bhgorc2020 #homeofficemakeover #myinspiredreno #diyprojects #designisfun #createmyhome #needsomecolour
What do you do when you spot a cute decor item in What do you do when you spot a cute decor item in your favourite homeware store's budget isle, but the colours don't match your decor? You buy it and paint it, of course.😊 I came across this mini pot plant holder @mrp_home the other day and just loved the texture on it. I took it home and painted it with a coral and cold ombre effect. Head to the blog for all the details! The faux string of pearls is also from @mrp_home. #mrphome #planters #potplant #fauxplants #indoorplants #coraldecor #golddecor #coralgold #fallcolors #fallhomedecor #diyplanter #paintedplanters #paintedplantpots #stringofpearls #donkeyears #loveyourdecor #loveyourhome #budgetfriendlydecor
Let's talk painting kitchen cabinets: I love the e Let's talk painting kitchen cabinets: I love the ease of being able to transform your kitchen with paint completely. If you don't have the finances for a full remodel on your kitchen - paint is your answer and your new BFF! It has been almost three years since we painted our kitchen cabinets and wall tiles, and they are still holding up so well! So hit me with you kitchen cabinet paint questions in the comments below. 👇🏻 We painted the handles with @rustoleumsouthafrica's ever-popular Oil-Rubbed Bronze. Cabinets were painted with the colours Nomadic Dream and Fynbos Leaf and wall tiles with Frozen Limeade. All from @plasconsa. #plascon #rustoleumsouthafrica #paintkitchencabinets #diykitchen #retrokitchen #transformyourkitchen #diyhome #paintkitchen #kitchenproject #oilrubbedbronze #kitchentransformation
Sometimes our DIY's don't turn out exactly as we p Sometimes our DIY's don't turn out exactly as we planned, and they kind of feel like a flop. I built this little stool from scratch, and although it was a relatively easy project, I am a bit disappointed. You see, I did not think about proportions in my planning phase. I disregarded the height I needed to go with my dressing table, and I did not consider its visual weight. So not only is this little guy to low to use at my vanity, but it also looks lost against the table. This failure just goes to show, that sometimes even seasoned DIY'ers like me make mistakes, and it is ok. Take what you can from that experience, and learn from it. Then you can keep moving forward and improve on your skills even if it is just your planning skills.😉 #diystool #diystools #midcenturystool #midcenturyfurniture #midcenturymodern #vanitystool #dressingtablestool #diyflop #diyfailure #diyfurniture

And a budget-friendly alternative to a full renovation. Swipe to see some details & the scary before.

Do you see that gorgeous table lamp? My friend Mar Do you see that gorgeous table lamp? My friend Martina from @thelivedinlook revamped an old table lamp, and she is sharing her technique! The second photo is of a Memory Pillow my friend Sara at @inspireddecorator made from her Grandpa's old shirt. How precious is that? And lastly, Erin from @practicalwhimsydesigns refinished an old folding table. She put in a bit of hard word, but now it looks brand new! The links to all these posts are on the blog. Just follow the link in my bio, go to my DIY rope basket post and check them out!
