One of my first design projects post-kids and post-Covid was updating a basic builder, first floor powder room for a fellow mom friend. She has existing textured walls with holes to be patched.

Since we moved into this house in 2019, I’ve had big dreams for her big girl bedroom. Pink was an obvious choice while she’s still so young, but I went with a much warmer pink than I did in her nursery, and I DID let her choose from the paint swatched I brought home. (*It’s
My top five favorite finds and fashion from February 2022. Art Prints by Minted Honestly, I really did like my 9 family pics hung here in the family room. But after straightening them for the 100th time from the kids playing on the couch, I knew it was time for a change. I went back
As our sweet little Lillian grew from babyhood to toddler life we did the standard transition tasks, like baby gates, dropping the mattress down, and my husband adorably anchoring all the furniture to the wall. We did have to remove the gorgeous starburst mirror from over her changing table until she recently because she kept
Living in a 1400 square foot house, built in 1942 means I have to make very conscious space planning and decor decisions.

Baby Girl’s Nursery I’m not one of those women who could wait ALL the way until delivery day to find out the sex of my baby. Therefore, I’ve known since August that we were having a girl, and I could not wait to decorate a baby girl’s nursery! I knew that I wanted a light
~New Studio Space~ LaurInteriors has a new studio space! After a solid year of trying to work from home and sewing in my Milwaukee basement, I put it out to the universe and chatted with a few other creativepreneurs about finding a shared work space.

~Dresser Makeover~ The first piece of furniture that I fell in love with, the first piece that was officially mine, and still, one of my absolute favorite pieces of furniture, is my childhood dresser! An old school tongue-in-groove, 4-drawer dresser. A piece I will cherish my whole life, and the kind of piece that makes
~Living Room Love~ I couldn’t tell you how long I’ve been wanting a matching pair of sofas facing each other in my living room. Maybe since early childhood, when I saw a pair in the front room of my mom’s cousin’s house… I think hers were a pastel blue. But I remember always behaving in
