You know me. I'm always on the lookout for vintage-inspired home decor that also fits into my tiny budget. And while I love to use genuine vintage goods whenever I can, we aren't electricians here at Robb Restyle. So when it comes to lighting, we prefer to purchase new lights inspired by the vintage and retro styles we adore. Last summer I created a roundup of vintage industrial farmhouse lights (here) when we added our porch light, which also included some of our favorite lights I curated … [Read more...] about More Vintage Style Lights Under $50

Behind the Photos: Keeping it Real
Today, I'm going to share another behind the scenes look at Robb Restyle. This month's behind the blog theme is Behind the Photos. So, instead of sharing how to take great pics (because there are plenty of photographers that are better at taking pictures than me) I'm going to share some real photos of what my home and work areas look like when we are renovating, making stuff and getting ready for markets. Guess what? It's not always blog worthy. [womp, womp] If you've visited me, this … [Read more...] about Behind the Photos: Keeping it Real
DIY Graduation Party Ideas
One of my most favorite jobs next to being a mama to my two boys is being an aunt to all 7 of my nieces and nephews. When I met my husband he was already an uncle to this adorable four-year-old who also stole my heart the first time I met her. It was very clear she adored her uncle YaYa - an endearing nickname she created for him. I loved watching them together and knew from that moment that this guy was going to be a great dad someday. Fast forward a few years... and I still wonder how it … [Read more...] about DIY Graduation Party Ideas

Ideas for Styling Your Staircase
My husband knows I change my mind. A lot. He's learned this about me over the years. It's not that I'm a terrible decision maker, but rather I like variety. I love to change things up. I get bored easily. It's why I invested in those little furniture mover disks. The last thing Corey wants to do when he walks in the house after a long day is to move the living room furniture around. Again. I've learned this about him over the years. Our living room is long and narrow, so it can be a … [Read more...] about Ideas for Styling Your Staircase
Design Ideas: Vintage Camping Bedroom for Boys
A few years ago I sent my two boys to a sleep-away summer camp. I was a girl scout myself and LOVED spending a week away at summer camp. Camp helps build confidence and character. I wanted my kids to experience that same joy of spending a week outdoors. We waited until our youngest was old enough so they could attend at the same time. I wanted them to have each other there even though they would be in different cabins - hoping the oldest might comfort the youngest. As it turned out, my … [Read more...] about Design Ideas: Vintage Camping Bedroom for Boys
