So I haven't blogged here in awhile. Long story short - we bought a house in January and since we were no longer renting, blogging at A Lease to Decorate just didn't make sense. But now the Army has given us orders to the Washington DC area a mere 8 months later. So you know what that means? We will be renters again in a few short...Sometimes Big Furniture in a Small Room is Okay

Whenever the husband is away, I get the itch to move furniture. This time is no different. You see, this is our master bedroom as viewed from the door... {June 2011} The wall with the cabinet and jewelry display has always bothered me. As does the color choice. Six months later and I am not feeling this shade of yellow anymore....November (Fake) Flowers

If April showers bring May flowers and Mayflowers bring pilgrims, I am not sure what November flowers bring. Jury is still out whether anyone out there still reads this tiny little blog but if you do, HELLO! <waves hand excitedly while trying to avoid the dreaded bat wing>.

I am linking up over at View Along the Way to showcase our work-in-progress living room. The Roomspiration Blog Hop and Link Party is well underway and I am never one to turn down inspiration so I decided to belly flop into the water. So let's get started, shall we? Oooh wait - just so you know, we rent our home (hence the name o...Painted Cabinets = So Fresh and So Clean

Yesterday, I shared the new wall color for the master bathroom, which went from not so peachy keen to blue paradise. But the bathroom was still nowhere near the spa retreat I am envisioning. However, since we're renting, I am unable to make major permanent changes to achieve my goal. But I am never one to shy away from a challenge...Goodbye Pink, Hello Blue

I feel like all the changes we've made recently have been to the master bathroom. I know this isn't really the case but the bulk of my time has been spent dealing with masking the 1980's details as best I can. I know what you're thinking, "Why in carnation would you want to change this pink beauty?" Can you believe that I am...$20 Swing Set Improvement

After a short trip to the east coast, we're back and ready to tackle more projects. However, I am finding that my momentum to blog such decorating endeavors is beginning to slow to a snails pace. Maybe because the summer from hell in Oklahoma is beginning to fade or maybe because I am overwhelmed by the design blogging world. But...Repainting the Master Bathroom

Do you remember what the master bathroom looked like when we moved in? {before} I wanted a bright blue for the master bathroom. So we painted it. And then about two days later, I hated it. It was too blue and too bright. So I took the remaining too blue and too bright paint. Pulled out the extra paint from our guest...
