Our goal for the summer is creating curb appeal for our home. At the top of our list was creating craftsman style shutters. Less than $100 later, our home looks transformed!

Months ago, our friend Drew took us to dinner to show us his proposal plan for his sweet girlfriend.

My hubby, […]
Make your life easier with DIY pegboard organization! Did you see my VLOG post yesterday? This is a pictures only post, but go here to see step by step how I created this project.
