YOU CAN MAKE AN EASY DIY A BEAUTIFUL MAGNOLIA WREATH This quick magnolia wreath is so stunning! The deep green of the leaves and the gorgeous copper tones on the back of the leaves give a beautiful contrast to my black door. If you are coming from Lindsey’s Christmas Countdown, at the Lindsey Kate Home blog, welcome! Wasnt her Easy Christmas Countdown made from a linen towel super cute? I’m so glad you’re here! My name is Morgan and I am making over my 1989, super dated home room by room, complete with wallpaper, paneling, and a different colored carpet in every room.

One Week of Demolition Progress For my Powder Room Remodel This week should be named “It is Going to Get Worse Before it Gets Better”. I do my best to keep my ‘construction zone’s clean and to clean between each step so that I don’t get too overwhelmed with how chaotic a renovation can be. I also have pets and if I leave the door open, I don’t want them trailing wallpaper adhesive throughout the house or to eat something dangerous. So I clean. Don’t forget to check out all the other participants of the One Room Challenge here: www.oneroomchallenge.com/orc-blog Be sure to catch up with Week 1 of my…

I AM READY FOR A NEW POWDER ROOM I have been looking forward to participating in the One Room Challenge since the spring when I caught the tail end of the last challenge! To learn more about the One Room Challenge and stay up to date with the other participants, check out all their posts on their site, here. SO MANY OPTIONS I wracked my brain for months and made all sorts of lists for which spaces I could do. I basically listed every room in the house and everything I wanted to do to them! Other than an expert list-maker, I am also an expert at making poor time…

TRANSFORMING AN PLAIN OLD CABINET INTO A BOHO BEAUTY I’ve always wanted to have a boho cane cabinet in my space but they’re so popular and sometimes that means, expensive. Here’s the thing, I tend to love expensive things, but I can’t afford them. This is one of the biggest reasons that I love DIY. I can create the look for myself, at a price that I can afford! I worked on this project as a part of the Furniture Flip Challenge on Instagram. It was so much fun, I will probably participate every year!

MY FRONT DOOR NEEDED A FACE LIFT SO I WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO DO YOURS TOO BEFORE My front door has been white, which is plain and uninteresting, at least on my house! The windows and trim are white, the stucco is a creamy pink color, and the shutters are black. To create a higher contrast, I decided to match the shutters and go black!

EVER WANTED TO MAKE A FUN SEASONAL ENTRY RUG? THIS IS THE TUTORIAL FOR YOU! I’ve seen so many cute Fall welcome mats this year, so I decided to make my own! For this DIY Fall Doormat, I wanted to mix it up and make a semi-circle. I know this seems counter-intuitive but I am accepting orders for the Fall doormat if you would like a completed mat. Most people don’t advise teaching people how to make something that you hope to sell, because then why would they buy it? I understand this, but I am not one to keep secrets. If you want to make the mat, go for…
