DIY Faux Fireplace

I wanted to add architectural interest to my daughter’s room.  I have always been in love with the skinny, smaller fireplaces that were in bedrooms in the Victorian era.  I decided to base my measurements on one of those and picked up the materials for around $70.  I love shiplap and wanted it to have that look on the front.  I used inexpensive textured, paintable wallpaper to back the inside.  My daughter loves to sit on her rug in front of it and have tea parties with her sister.  It will be a fun area to decorate for each holiday.

A Bright and Woodsy Nursery for Luka

I knew I wanted to create a special space for my boy that was full of D.I.Y artwork and crafts made with lots of Love. This nursery was created on a tight budget and turned out to be one of my favourite rooms in the house. The woodsy theme featuring tourquoise, teals, burnt oranges and mustard yellow throughout the room. From the hand painted artwork to the hand made change table and refurnished dresser, all of these projects were designed to create a fun room for my baby boy to grow up in.
