Happy New Year!
If you have been here before, you may notice that I have been making a few changes to the website. The beginning of the year always gets me motivated to make changes and get back into blogging and sharing with you! This blog does hold a special place in my heart and I wanted to get back to it. The color changes have come from a refresh of my dolly muse Brunbelle as well!

My newest series is a challenge to create a new room style made 100% out of Dollar Tree Items…the only exception is glue, paint, and the occasional cereal box. Each month I’ve selected a new room style/theme and then record a video tour showing the items I used to create the room. The videos can be seen on Instagram (links below). Each quarter I will post these rooms in a recap here on a the blog. Check out the current rooms below and stay tuned for more each quarter!

I’m so happy with how it turned out and how the whole weekend played out! Check out all of the photos from Instagram in once place here!
