Office Makeover – The Reveal

Did you forget about the little office makeover we had going on over here?

I wouldn’t blame you if you did.

It was almost a whole year ago that I started talking about giving my home office a makeover.

I made a plan.

Then changed it.

Made another plan.

And then changed that too.

But once I got rolling with it, it all just kind of came together on its own and I’m so excited to share the finished project with you today.  It feels good to actually finish something.  We should probably try doing more of that around here. 😉

Cozy and Casual Christmas Home Tour

Jennifer Rizzo 2016 linky party

I love snow in December.

Right now – as I type this – it’s snowing and snowing and snowing.

Everything is covered in a beautiful blanket of white outside, and inside it feels so cozy with the twinkle lights, and candlelight, and Christmas plaid.

It really is like the most perfect day.

Ask me how I feel when we have a day like this in March and I may sing a different tune.

But today?

Today I wouldn’t change a thing.

I don’t normally post on Sundays, but since I’m feeling so festive and Christmas-y watching that snow come down, I thought I’d go ahead get my tour up a little early.

Christmas Home Tour

Holiday Housewalk 2015

Hello friends! I know I’m all off my normal Monday, Wednesday, Friday blog schedule, BUT I finally have my Christmas tour ready to share with you today – yay!! I told myself I was going to simplify my holiday decorating this year – but perhaps I need to learn the meaning of “simplify” – it was still a lot more work than I anticipated.

I wanted a cozy/country/cottage type vibe this year, so I went with a traditional Christmas color scheme using lots of red, white and green.  I mixed new and old décor, vintage pieces, and both fresh and faux greenery throughout – and now the house feels super cozy and festive.  I can’t wait to relax and enjoy it now that the work is done. 🙂

House Tour – The Bedrooms

So, I meant to get this post done last night, but when I hopped in my car after work yesterday I was unpleasantly surprised to find that it would not start. Three and a half hours and a tow truck ride later, my car and I were safely dropped off at home (after which Jordan was able to discover it was just a loose and dirty starter wire. Or something like that anyway…) – but it kind of put a wrench in the evening’s plans and no blog post was done.

I realized earlier this week that I never really finished the “House Tour” by showing you the other two bedrooms. Probably because I haven’t done much for decorating in either one – but that’s ok, I’ll give you the before and afters anyway. [Read more…]

House Tour – Home Office

The tour continues today with the room that probably sees me the most – the office. I am fortunate to be able to work from home three days a week, and wanted a dedicated space that could accommodate the needs of my job, so we chose to use the smallest of our three bedrooms as a home office.

House Tour – The Kitchen

Like most of the rooms in our house, our kitchen is small. Not only is it small (I don’t even think it is 10’x10’), but it has all the awkwardness typically found in old house kitchens, with a window or doorway on every wall. Not exactly conducive to that desirable kitchen triangle people are always talking about. [Read more…]
