Good morning friends... Today I'm trying something a little different. This marks the beginning of a new relationship with you - not just pretty pictures of styled spaces. I'm opening the window into my little personal space. In true Kristy form, I wanted to come up with a really clever name, something that sounds like me. But I struggled to think of anything creative or clever. What is something I say all of the time? Or, what is something I do regularly... I wanted this weekly bit to … [Read more...] about What’s on Tap No.1

DIY Flower Garden Globe
Happy May Day! Today we say goodbye to April showers and hello to May flowers (I wish it were actually that easy to say goodbye to rainy days). And yet, the days of May grow longer and promise more sunshine, more warmth, and more flowers. Oh, and the end of homework school around here. Yippee!

How to Easily Update an Ugly Drop Ceiling
Don't look up. That's what I secretly wished anytime someone new entered our dining room space. Or worse yet, I would just start talking about how the ceiling needs to be fixed - pointing it out like a pimple on my chin that I can't seem to leave alone. See this here (pointing up).

Yes, there was a leak many years before we moved in and the plaster ceiling underneath … [Read more...] about How to Easily Update an Ugly Drop Ceiling

Vintage Style Ideas with Minted Art
I am confident in my ability to decorate and accessorize with vintage. But, picking out artwork - it's so out of my comfort zone. It can be intimidating selecting a piece of art for your room. I think more people look at the art in your home as a direct representation of your personality and style - vs. the stuff you just set on shelves and tabletops. And, when you have an eclectic aesthetic that you struggle to define (like me) you lose confidence in making the right choice. The right … [Read more...] about Vintage Style Ideas with Minted Art
Easy DIY Paper Flower May Day Wreath
Promises of warmer weather and colorful spring blooms inspired this little DIY Project. But first... I'm so excited to be a DIY ambassador this year for National DIY Day! It's a fantastic opportunity to celebrate all the DIYers and makers out there. I've been DIY-ing things for as long as I can remember. Before we had a computer at home as a kid, I was hand-drawing birthday party invites for my sister. In college, I continued to be creative making projects for my sorority sisters and … [Read more...] about Easy DIY Paper Flower May Day Wreath
