If you could travel to anywhere, where would you go!? 🚘 ✈️

After a few hiccups, we survived travel day and are officially on vacation at the beach! Yesterday we finished laying all the tile and are prepared for the next steps in the patio project. That means when we get home; we will only have a week to completely finish the patio project for the one room challenge. 😳😜

Tell me what you like, sweet tea or unsweet? ⁣

This past week was week 5 for the one room challenge! Honestly I didn’t get a lot done until this weekend so I held off on the blog post until the exact last minute it was due. (Sunday) ⁣
⁣
I stained the daybed swing in Teak, the same color as all of the other wood on our exterior. We are waiting for new, longer ropes to come in so it can be hung. The twin size mattress we already had, it’s sooo comfortable but it’s 10 inches, which does not leave a ton of room to actually sit back. If I was to suggest someone using this as an inspo, maybe get the 8 inch thick mattress. We have a four inch one in our bay window and it’s awful BTW. ⁣
⁣
We are so close to the end of laying the tile! We’ve tiled ourselves into a corner, so now we have to wait 48 hours before we can stand on these to finish those LOL ⁣

Bathroom Tour in stories now! Swipe to see a different angle and how the rug changes. ⁣

I found a vintage style rug with neutral colors to give some warmth to the bathroom tile. @loloirugs @chrislovesjulia #cljxloloi @amazonhome @liketoknow.it.home

Symmetrical or Asymmetrical?! What is your kitchen? ⁣
⁣
My kitchen is asymmetrical. The stove range is directly under the peak of the vault for symmetry. I created a delicate cabinet on one side and open shelves/cabinetry on the other side to fill the area. ⁣
⁣
This created asymmetry. I kind of had to bc there’s a door right there also. ⁣
⁣
I like both in their own spaces. Found another asymmetrical kitchen that I just love 💛 This kitchen is a remodel by @jenferrandi check out her page to see the full photos.

Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸❤️
Everyone says “word art” is out. #livelaughlove 🤣 agree or disagree?!

BUT this word art decor from @thecreativefarmhouse is the exception 100%

Here are two ways to style it.

This weekend I’m on the hunt for outdoor rugs and new pendants for above the bed. When we got these in they were smaller than I thought, no returns allowed so I said we would keep them and be looking for new ones. ⁣
⁣
Well we never did. Honestly it just becomes something you look past and forget. So I’m going to start actively looking. Not sure what style to get though! ⁣
⁣
Hope you have a great Saturday. We are headed to the gym, tiling the patio (of course lol) and then my niece has a dance recital I’m going to. 🇺🇸 http://liketk.it/3gnDT

Are you traveling this weekend or staying home? We are kinda doing both! We have tile to lay (ha always) and then family to see 🇺🇸 ⁣
⁣
Hopefully today I can grab a bunting or a hanging flag for the porch. You would be able to see it out this window here. ⁣If I find one I’ll share in stories how to hang it.

AD: I really don't want to admit how long I held this up for one good photo. 😂

It's the One Room Challenge Week Four. Let's talk about this LARGE format tile!

You were there with me while I picked out tile online at Floor & Decor and thought I was going to use slate. You have seen all the samples I brought home from the store and voted on them for me! These past weeks you have watched the the behind-the-scenes of { trial and error at the Nelsons } 😉 and all the details for tiling over concrete.

Check my bio, I've added a link to this week's blog post with all the tile details and a direct link to this tile. https://lnk2.io/wdnw9LN @flooranddecor #flooranddecor #oneroomchallenge #bhgorc

Guys. There was a FROG in my fireplace this weekend. SWIPE all the way. It had to have been on my roof and got in from the stack. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

This patio project is taking a *little* bit longer than I predicted. ⁣
⁣
I don’t know what I was thinking, by now I thought we would be in grout stage. 😳 nope, see my latest reel for how far along we are. ⁣
⁣
⁣
Other projects in the house have taken back burner. Like the curtains in the living room {swipe} painting/wainscoting the cat room & general cleaning everyday 😹😹 ⁣

Longest Monday ever! ⁣😝 Pretty rude that it’s not Friday.
⁣
Really excited bc the forecast says Sat/Sun with be sunny and 80 degrees. Perfect for tiling the patio or staining the new daybed swing. Do you have plans for this weekend? ⁣
⁣
I tried out the blanket over the couch like my inspo from a couple posts ago. AND love it! Idk why I didn’t think to just tuck it like this before. The throw blanket is still in stock! ⁣

It’s our 10 year anniversary today! All these photos are from our old house. We were there for 15 years and did SO many DIY projects there. ⁣
⁣
We spent our anniversary going to the gym, tiling concrete and eating Dairy Queen 😹😻 normally we are on a trip right now but this year we are headed to the beach in June to celebrate. So today was just another day 😆
⁣
💗 anyone else have anniversary days like ours?!

Now that I’ve rearranged the living room, I need to add a blanket to the back of the sofa like @chrislovesjulia did here. SWIPE to see how I normally style a blanket over the back. ⁣
⁣
💛 Not terrible, just too small for the space and also I’d love to cover the couch seams. Follow along in stories this weekend, I’ll need help picking out which blanket to use.

💛 Have you heard of the One Room Challenge? SWIPE RIGHT - I’m joining this year as a guest participant! We are refreshing the back patio just in time for summer.

It’s an 8 week challenge, every Thursday you will find a blog post detailing the week and I’ll also have a highlight of stories saved here.

Backstory 👇
In 2019, we built our first custom home. There are so many decisions to make and some of them do not turn out well, when mother nature is involved. LOL The day came for us to pour the concrete for the front and back porch. Immediately after we poured, a giant storm decided to change direction and come right for us rather than away from us. The crew had to set tarps up to protect the freshly poured concrete, but with all their efforts, we still had a small mess on our hands.

SO this leads me to today. We have discussed every option on how to fix the concrete (make it pretty) and came up with tiling it. Along with fixing the floor, we are going to refresh the decor and some furniture too. We even are going to create a TV space to watch movies on those warm summer nights!

“Alexa, remind me what I came into this room for” 😂🤪⁣
⁣
Today I’m going to tackle putting up new curtains here. I found great quality, black out ones from Amazon that are linen in the front so they keep that natural vibe. ⁣
⁣
I get asked a lot where I bought my LONG curtain rod at (it spans the whole 12ft of this back door). So I linked it in this post too! ⁣
⁣
And does anyone else always forget what they walked into a room for? I have to leave and come back ha ⁣

Whoever said “out of sight, out of mind” never had a spider disappear in their bedroom. 😬😅

Deb at @seekinglavenderlane has been an inspiration to me since day one. I always find myself popping over there to see how I can incorporate her lovely European style in my home. Currently swooning over her ducks. Haha

Oh AND this week is the start of One Room Challenge! Thursday my first blog post on the back porch refresh will be live. Click the link in bio to subscribe to the blog 💛 😉

I snapped this just now, something about the light in this room in the morning makes me smile. And Bella’s stare only slightly creeps me out. ⁣
⁣
Last night we finally put up curtains here too! I made them set out from the window trim on purpose to kinda frame that area. ⁣
