Thank you everyone so much for the amazing New and Old support I receive every month! 3 new followers this month! 26 and counting,Wow!!!  this party is really starting to get good!

Ok, I haven't posted any High Low Projects in a while. Today, I have a new High Low Project, I fell in love with this gorgeous Work Table Lamp

A little bit out of my price range. So I decided to get this, a perfect agreeable alternative!

LOW

And now it is sitting on mine and my hubbies night stand we love them!!!

 

Do you remember I used to have another lamp?

 

 

Than it looked like this?

 

 

And now we have this!

We love it!!

 

 

 

I also fell in love with this HIGH!!

Restoration Hardware $319.99

So beautiful! But a little more than I want to spend, so I found this beauty!

 

 

LOW

IKEA $29.99

 

I haven't bought this one yet, but I am planning on it, I just have to have it, it's absolutely divine!

 

Well, I hope this High Low motivated you to go out and look for the items you want the most without breaking the bank. You can do it! Have a great weekend my friends.

{Armoire Desk Reveal}

Good day Peeps! I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day Weekend! We didn't go anywhere for the holiday weekend, as you remember, my hubby got a promotion to a new job and is currently training super hard. Oh I love how hard he has been working for us. He is such a great and amazing husband, we are so grateful for him. Thank you Amor!

 Ok, I am super excited for today's post. I have been working so hard on this project, and I know I have taken forever to finally finish and reveal. Well, here it is.  Do you remember this armoire?

If not, click HERE to see this post.

And how I turned it into this?

So it became this!

 

 

 

Whoo, it was so much fun, ok, not that fun! It was stressful, and annoying to be honest! I forgot to prime it, why? Because my memory cells are horrible from pregnancy, and I can't think straight! So it has been chipping here and there, giving me frustration after frustration and I have to touch it up once in a while. Ugh...anyway, to see and read about this previous project click HERE.  I finally have a reveal of the inside!

 

 

Ok, previously it looked like this!!

 

 

 

And now it looks like this!

 

 

Oh I love, love, love this piece! It's super functional for us!

 

 

This is the top shelf, where I store and display my collection of BHG magazines! Have some media storage, and some of my favorite decorating and organizing books ever!

 

 

 

I have so much more space for things, I created extra storage by adding some $1 store finds and tweaking them by making them look more expensive.

 

I used chalk paint on both doors on the inside, not only because I have been itching to paint something with chalk paint, but because I can write down notes, and, does it ever happen to you whenever you're on the computer trying to work on your blog, editing pictures, paying bills, or just trying to pin a little, the kiddos seem to want to get in there and tap on the keyboard, or start throwing fits? Yes, well this happens to me, every single time I am trying to do some fun stuff online. Therefore, this works wo well for me. Check out Nolan's very 1st. work of art! No, he did not write his name, I did haha, but he did however write some cute little nothings!

 

I love Chalk Paint! I used it on both sides!

 

I picked up a super cute clipboard from Target (I love Target!) and glued it onto the door. I love the pop of color!

I love that my super cute Faux Nail Head Trimmed Cork Board is the perfect fit! To learn how to make a Faux Nail Head Trimmed Cork Board click HERE!

 

 

 

I love the extra hidden storage, I am still working on this file drawer, I want to add a super cute knob! I'll let you know later on what I do with it. But in the mean time, check out the storage solution!

 

 

Ok, so this, if I may add, was genious!!! Do I sound cocky?

I love this! It works so well for me, since I haven't any drawers in my little armoire, I thought this would be the perfect alternative for those little office supplies, at the reach of a hand.

 

 

The armoire only came with two little shelves on the right, so I added an extra 3rd shelf.

Perfect for more storage.

  

 

 

 

 

I am so happy with the turnout, although I am still working on few little details, which of course I will keep you updated on. Lets see all the delicious storage once again.

August Recap

Oh no, I'm afraid the week that kept me so busy, held me back, and now I'm behind. I couldn't even work on all of my projects, and I'm afraid I failed at revealing the two awesome makeovers I had. I am so sorry peeps! I promise this month will be much better. Ok but here is August's Recap!

Created a Mood Board of my dream Master Bedroom



Master Bedroom Olio Board Inspiration

Had the awesome opportunity to work with two very fortunate young ladies in organizing their super cute closets before school started!



A Posh Closet



Pretty N'Pink N'Organized

Also took the opportunity to show off my organized drawers.

{Inside My Drawers}

I hope you keep coming back for this coming months super cool posts, I think you're going to enjoy.

 

Master Bedroom Olio Board!

I am super excited, I will finally be able to work on my master bedroom. Ok, not exactly all the way as I have always dreamt of, but since we are renters, we will only be able to style it up as we can. Meaning, transform with accessories, and small updates on pieces we already own. Anyhow, I am super excited about this!

This is my Dream Master Bedroom, thank you to Olio Board for providing me with the opportunity to show you (my readers) my Mood Board!

 

Of course, it won't be for a while, we probably won't be buying for quite sometime. We are sort of Nomad-ish!

 

Ok, so this is what our Master Bedroom will probably end looking like at the moment.

Not exactly with the exact same fabrics, hopefully very close to everything I have chosen though. Perhaps I will find somewhat close to what I have in this mood board. We will keep out IKEA bed, and our dresser, I will update our nightstands with some paint and new hardware. And I will be showing a couple of high low projects coming soon! Yay!!

 

Oh and of course, my living room is a work in progress. In fact, everything is!

 

 

Oh, I am soooo excited! Stay tune, because I will show you what our Master Looks like at the moment, and will also be showing some of the projects I have in mind, meaning, all of the mini updates on some of the pieces already owned.

 

 

Have a great rest of the week!

 

 

 

 

A Posh Closet!

Good morning, and happy Monday. I hope your weekend was relaxing, as was mine. Last week was possibly the busiest week of my life, and I am so sorry I didn't update my blog as I usually do. Anyway, can you believe August (Summer) is almost over? Noooo!!! It saddens me, and with school starting, I have been busy helping precious clients out with their kids rooms, just in time for the school year. Here is my latest organization project makeover!

 

 Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to work with a very posh and fortunate young lady, Claire! Her closet is just pretty, but she needed me to bring out it's true identity. Check out the before.

 

 

She had all these boxes inside, taking up much needed and sensational space!

 

Adores books, but they completely became shelffish!

 

Perfect storage capacity!

 

So I worked my magic, and shazasm!

 

Just lovely!

And as you can see, she even has extra space on that top shelf!

Books now have a place of their own in her posh closet!

Shoes!!!
