Winter Decor Finished (Part 2)

It may have taken an extra few days, but all the winter decor is finished.  I've added a few more snowmen, wooden trees, as well as a complete remake of one of our winter signs.  Come take a peak at the last of the winter decor projects.

New Year New Signs

What a whirlwind we had toward the end of last year including a couple of firsts for our growing company.  We were pleased to announce our first ever entry into a local craft fair, and that went so well we squeaked into another just a couple of weeks later with equal amounts of success.  2017 also brought the launch of our online store at DiscoveryHomesColorado.com, plus we put together several custom orders for new and returning customers, with that said we've been a little lax on our blogging which we are ready to change!  Starting off the new year right by giving you a few pictures of some of our custom orders and biggest sellers!

Where did the summer go??

Holy smokes is it fall already??  Didn't the summer just start?  Well I guess if it went that fast then I know we had a good time, right?  Between the camping, visits to Wyoming, and an epic opportunity to see the total solar eclipse, I can safely and confidently say that yes we had a good summer.  

Now that we are decorating for fall and bidding summer adieu, it's been super fun to create new decor for maybe one of my most favorite seasons.  We have just rolled out some of our latest wooden decor for home just in time to decorate for fall.

It's Porch Sitting Time

I'm so ready to be outside, who's with me!  School's almost done, and it's time to get out working in the yard, and when you're done for the day there is nothing better than filling a glass of iced tea (or red wine) and sitting on the porch, but first it has to be ready for the season.

Welcome to the Cinema

We're back turning something old and salvaged into a new piece to add to our decor.  This week we've taken an old headboard that we no longer needed, and turned it into a wooden sign for our home theater which was lacking some decor.

Don't Throw Out the Leftovers!

We all have some leftover scrap from finished projects, so this particular project takes using your leftovers to a whole new meaning.  Remember these doors?  They became library shelves and storage in our work studio, but I still had the bottom half of the dirty door from the library shelves.  By adding a leftover drawer front I had laying around from an old dresser I refinished, what did I get?

Sprucing Up the Dining Room

I worked on a bunch of little projects this week.  They aren't as satisfying as the big reveal to me, but you get a bunch of them under your belt, and you've got yourself a success almost as satisfying as a big project.  Almost!  I got a little more barnwood this week, and I was searching for some with a little bit of green in it.  These particular pieces had clearly been outside in the weather, and have a little moss color to them.

From Trash to Eiffel Tower Design Treasure

I've got one more Eiffel Tower idea to show you, and the "canvas" for our Eiffel Tower design was discovered in an uncommon place, salvage shopping.  I think I might have tripped over this old framed screen a time or two before an idea came about how to use it, and for a few dollars it was worth the purchase.  It was in good shape and a great color just needed a little cleaning up.

Additions for the Paris Room

It's a good thing that for the most part my kids are patient with me, at least in the realm of room decorations.  A week ago we remade a nightstand and gave it a Paris flare, well now time to add a few more touches.

It's Time for Some Serious Organizing of our Winter Gear

Looking around our laundry room we had some disorganization, and we are now in the heart of the winter with coats and gloves and boots everywhere.  We needed some help, so we created a custom built-in to fit our needs! Read on and see how we did it.

Creating Decorations Using Some of Our Favorite Music

We are quickly closing in on Christmas!  With less than two weeks left we are feverishly getting our presents bought and wrapped and enjoying the benefits of the season by getting together with friends and family.  We are still doing a few additions to the Christmas decorations, but this one's a little different.

Few Last Minute Decorations for Thanksgiving

We are making the final push in our preparation for Thanksgiving, and we are pumped.  We have put a couple of finishing touches on our kitchen decor to make this thanksgiving perfect.  First up a little upgrade on our harvest box.  It has worked perfectly to help organize all the fruits and veggies that come through the kitchen, but it needed a little pizzazz!

Barnwood Door Turned Mantel Upgrade

We are busy getting ready for Thanksgiving making chicken stock and giving our sour dough starter time to sour, but managed this week to create a little upgrade for our faux fireplace in the basement.

Repurposed Mirror to Wall Artwork

We are officially nearing my very favorite holiday, Thanksgiving!  It's a foodie's dream day right?  Well as we move into focusing on the dining room and kitchen in preparation for Thanksgiving, we needed some artwork on the wall in our dining room to spruce it up a bit, and we had just the piece.

Upcycled Old Sewing Table

Better Homes and Gardens magazine is amongst one of my favorite magazines to get.  I discovered in the latest couple of issues people who have recycled old furniture and turned it into something fabulous!  We got the buzz here too, and had the perfect piece to turn around for this upcycling challenge!

Have Map, Will Mark Where Traveled

On our Facebook Page earlier this week we shared an HGTV video about creating a travel map, well that got us inspired to finally put together our own travel map in the library, and we love it.

Florida Room Inspiration

As we start to move indoors for the winter in Colorado, we were inspired by the idea of a Florida room from Douglas Elliman Real Estate.  We wanted to create a few beach inspired decor ideas that in the dead of winter you could enjoy the next closest thing to sun and surf!  Come check us out on Pinterest, and view some of our ideas for the coziest Florida room ever.

It's the Last but Not Least Organizing Element

We've almost done it, the last piece of the puzzle to finish up for our work studio so we are totally organized and have enough storage for all things crafty.  Just a few small touches to finish up before we give you the grand tour, but first let's see what we did this week!

Artisan Studio Organization

We are desperately seeking some organization!  No seriously there is stuff laying around everywhere in the craft studio.  While I suppose this means the creative juices are flowing, the overwhelmed feeling by the amount of little items that are scattered all over the place is really getting to us.  We need to create a system for harmony, so over the next couple of blog posts we are creating much needed organization for our craft/artisan studio.  We started this week with trying to keep all of the little things in order, but we must first go on a hunt around the house to see what we have laying around that we can salvage because let be honest all of the organizing tools you can buy at the store really add up fast.  I'd rather spend my money on crafty items not organization tools.

Front Porch Fall Design to Enjoy the Last of the Warm Evenings!

We were recently inspired by Arhaus to showcase a design of our outdoor space, so we did just that, and transformed our front porch into a relaxing end of the day place to enjoy.
