Eryn With A Y

We moved in two years ago, and after recovering from the major initial investment, we're ready to invest some money in renovating! I love the fact that it looks small from the front, but it just keeps going and going when you're in it. There's three sections, and they're all separated by doors so changing styles will be easy. There's so much potential!

I made a DIY mood board to store all my ideas. I've got my own craft room and I needed somewhere to *neatly* display all my inspirations. I love it because it's so easy and quick, as well as magnetic and so versatile. It was also a feature of one of my first DIY posts for WhereTheStyledThingsAre (http://wherethestyledthingsare.com/mood-board-diy/) and got me thinking that maybe I could have my own blog!

I do! I'm a big fan of displaying things as storage. A cute way to do this its to use trays! They're extremely DIY'able pieces of art in themselves, they can be used in any room of the house, they can hold multiple storage items, and they're easy to clean away!

Hands down it would be the house of the team at A Beautiful Mess. These guys helped me get started on the road to blogging, I really love their photos and I am so, so envious of their ability to purchase a house to do up an feature in their blog. (http://www.abeautifulmess.com/)

I would put a light well in the front hallway, it's the only dark part of the house.

I would change the shape of the cupola in the front room. It's just so random!

I'd change the tiles in the bathroom. They're a jade green... eugh.

You name it, I try it! I even do a post series called 'So Out Right Now' where I try old fashion crafts and try to make them new again.
