On Location

June 11, 2012
This is the 4th and last week that Chris and I will be apart.  He is in the mountains, playing chef, at a scout camp and I am on location at my sister-in-law's beautiful home injecting some much-needed color.  Today, we're focusing on this dining room nook.
 

The family of eight built their gorgeous home and moved in, September 2010. Since then, I have had numerous conversations with my sister-in-law, Heather about color schemes and paint colors and this week we are finally putting some action behind all of those words.

Today's mini-makeover project: this space.

And this fabric is serving as our inspiration palette that we plan on carrying through to the adjoining living room.  I'll have the reveal for you in the morning!

Do you need some design advice? Is there a space in your home that you are stuck on? This week, in a last ditch effort to get votes for our Exterior Melodrama, we are giving away a custom mood board to one of our readers!  You can vote for the video every day until Thursday--which means there is an opportunity of 4 entries per person to win a mood board.

Click here to vote for the video. (It takes two seconds--there isn't any registering or anything)
Leave a comment on this post every time you vote.
I'll announce the winner on Friday!

  4. Your sister-in-law is amazing. How does she have six kids and such a clean nook??? That's what I want to know. She must be magic. :) I voted! I hope you win! I keep hoping we win the backyard makeover in the Albertson's summer game thingey.

  5. I finally figured out how to enable cookies on my browser and voted! hope you guys win, I check your blog multiple times a day. love it.

  6. I mentioned this on facebook when I voted...but I voted for you guys when you were trying to get some furniture thing (a crib maybe? I can't remember!) a few years ago, and ya'll won! ...I'd like to think I'm good luck;) I Hope you win! I love looking at all your updates! We'll be moving in less than twenty days and will be in dire need of color scheme ideas!

  7. I have been holding out on putting curtains up in my living room for two years - I've been waiting for the right fabric - and I think the one you posted would be perfect. Do you have any info on where I could find it?

  8. LOVE that fabric. And that nook! I feel like the table needs to be a different color....I don't know. Like white or something. Is that fabric for a window treatment or a seat cushion??? Ahh on the edge of my seat girl! One week one week one week!!! You can do it.

My Storage Hack for Organizing Christmas Decorations

Every year when I pack up the decorations after Christmas, I collect all of the garlands together in one box, I get all the candlesticks together in another box, and all my nativity sets go into their own box. We label the boxes "garlands," "candles," "nativity sets,"...which seems great until you remember that you have […]

Cranberry-Glazed Ham

What do you make for Christmas dinner? Sometimes we'll do a prime rib or a roast turkey, but this year, I'm going all out with a Christmas ham that just looks festive. For this recipe, I made a cranberry-orange glaze with some warm winter spices that takes this ham to the next level. Oh and […]

There's nothing worse when I'm out on a fun holiday outing taking video memories of my family, and I see that red light. Or I'm traveling and stuck in the airport on a layover...it gives me anxiety!
