Our time at home during COVID-19 has been marked by home projects. Y’all, I have reorganized, cleaned out & painted every square inch of our space. It feels incredible!
We finally wrapped up our bedroom remodel, which has been in process for months. WE LOVE IT. It feels like going to bed & waking up in a tranquil spa every morning.

The only item left in this space is our bed, which was my great uncle’s – I love it’s simple style & size. The rest was sold & replaced with what we knew we’d love for years to come.
As I shared the process of our remodel on social, so many folks commented on how much my style has changed. I do believe there has been an evolution of growth in what I gravitate towards (I started this blog when I was 19! Let’s hope my style has changed, ha!). But my style has also grown with my budget & what I can afford to purchase for our space.
For so long, I pieced together rooms with yard sale or thrift shop finds & pieces handed down from family. I love a good thrifty find & our home still has a mix of old & new, but this time around, with a bit of expandable income saved up, I knew I wanted to wait until we could purchase exactly what we wanted.
For our bedroom, I knew I craved texture, pattern & neutral tones with pops of blush. I am very thankful that Luke loves what I pick out & doesn’t mind a hint of pink in his room.
I fell in love with this wallpaper, which was the inspiration for the entire space. It reminds me of our travels with a bit of a modern feel mixed in.
One addition to the room was my vanity corner. We only have one bathroom in our home, which presents many problems when we’re trying to get ready & off to work in the mornings. A friend had an idea to put a vanity in this corner where I could get ready each morning & it works beautifully.
Another upgrade was removing the old carpet & putting in hardwood flooring. Due to our budget, we decided to go with engineered hardwood from Lumber Liquidators. We have that style of hardwood throughout our entire home & it’s held up so well despite our rugged farm life, ha! To make it extra cozy & provide more texture, I placed a rug beneath our bed.
Finally, we added a full-length mirror to an empty corner on the far side of the room. I used to have a dorm style mirror on the back of my closet door so this feels like such an upgrade!
