How To Install Subway Tile

by RoxanneK, in category DIY

I know it’s been awhile since I’ve shared any progress on my niece’s kitchen makeover. I’m trying to enjoy summer while it lasts and that has slowed down projects over here, but I do have a progress update for you today. We have installed the backsplash tile and I couldn’t be happier with it. I have one more project to complete in here but in the meantime, I wanted to show you how to install subway tile.

Materials Needed:

Wet Saw*

Glass Peel and Stick Tiles

Construction Adhesive

Tape Measure

Straight Edge (aka Rafter Square)

Caulk

Quarter round molding

Laser Level

Marker or colored pencil

For this backsplash we used peel and stick glass subway tile from Aspect tiles (DIY Decor Store), though the process is the same whether you are using glass tiles or ceramic tile. If you are using tile that is not the peel and stick kind, you will pretty much install it the same way except you will have to add mastic to the walls before pressing the tiles on and you will grout after the mastic is set. The peel and stick save time, money and mess.

How To Install:

To begin, we decided to start from the bottom and work our way up. I believe the way professional tile installers do it, is to start in the center and work their way out. We decided if we worked from the bottom up, the cut parts would be less visible under the cabinets. We used the laser level to be sure everything was straight.

We staggered each tile as shown, working from the center out so cuts would be on the ends.

Although you don’t need any mastic with the peel and stick tile, it is recommended to use a little construction adhesive on the back of each tile, which we did. To make our cuts we used a wet saw. My niece lives in a condo so we set up shop right on the grassy area near the parking lot. My friend Diana (who knows how to use a wet saw, and is really good with it!) came over to help us. So us three girls spent the afternoon cutting tiles in the middle of the development. We got a few funny looks from people passing by. Here is my niece using a wet saw for the first time. Isn’t she cute?

How to Cut Tile

First, figure out the dimensions you need to cut off of the tile. For straight cuts it’s really easy – just mark your tile with a marker and a straight edge, adjust the wet saw guide and make your cut. Wear safety glasses and gloves when using the saw. For non-straight cuts such as L shaped cuts around outlets, mark your tile where it needs to be cut. When using the saw for these, you have to cut free hand without the guide. Make the first cut and then remove the tile, rotate it and make the next cut.

Here are two tiles Diana cut to go around an outlet.

Look how perfectly they fit! Diana did most of these cuts because she’s so good at it.

On the stove wall, we worked the same way – from the bottom up.

With the three of us working on this we were able to install the tile in only a few hours, and we had fun doing so! We plan to add quarter round molding around the edges since we didn’t need to use any grout, but that is optional.

I have one more project to tackle in this space before it’s officially finished and that’s going to be a floor makeover. I’m planning to paint them and this is the project I’ve wanted to do the most of all in this space so I saved it for last. As a reminder here is what we started with and where we are now.

You can see how we painted the appliances here and how we painted the countertops here.

Thank you to DIY Decor Store for supplying the tile for this project.

Bedroom Decorating Ideas

by RoxanneK, in category Before and After, DIY, House Tours

Welcome to week 4 of our Room by Room Summer Series! I can’t believe the summer is half over already! This week we are sharing bedroom decorating ideas. Master bedrooms will be next week, this week is for secondary bedrooms.

If you follow my blog regularly you know I just did a complete makeover in my younger daughter’s room. It was dark and outdated before with a furniture layout that was all wrong. We gave it a complete overhaul from laying new flooring to installing a layered crown molding.

These are some of the photos that didn’t make it into the first post a few weeks ago. We switched out the chandelier and the curtains and added a storage ottoman at the foot of the bed.

We replaced the ugly bi-fold builder grade closet doors with a DIY sliding barn door instead.

Opposite the bed we added a desk so my daughter would have some much-needed study space. I completely removed her dresser (which was broken) from the room. We made up for the loss of clothing storage by adding DIY nightstands and the ottoman. You can see the full makeover here.

My older daughter’s room has never gotten a full makeover. This is something she has been asking me to do lately, especially since seeing her sister’s room. I have done a few smaller updates in this space. The mirrored sliding door update was hugely popular and is still one of my favorite DIY’s.

I used a desk next to the bed so that my older daughter would have her own study area as well.

To fit more storage into this room, I stacked vintage steamer trunks on the other side of the bed as opposed to a nightstand.

A made a budget-friendly gallery wall with a few simple DIY’s.

This room is on the list for a more complete makeover, right after I finally get to my living room. As I mentioned last week, my blog schedule will be sporadic for the rest of July. I’ll be taking a short break to enjoy the summer before it passes me by!

Kitchen Home Tours

by RoxanneK, in category Before and After, DIY, House Tours, Inspiration

Is there anything more fun than going on a home tour? Last week I mentioned I’m participating in a series called Room by Room. Each week over the summer some of my blogging friends and I will be sharing different rooms in our homes. Last week it was entry ways. I shared my front porch because my tiny entry is attached to my living room which is currently under some minor renovations. This week it’s time to show the kitchen.

I lived with an ugly kitchen for so long, I still have to pinch myself that it’s finally done. I had planned this kitchen makeover in my mind for years, so when it finally started happening, I didn’t have to agonize over any decisions, I knew just what I wanted. White cabinets were first on the list. I painted the old, existing cabinets and added a row of new cabinets with glass fronts above those.

I dressed up the cabinets with DIY book page wreaths. The mason jar canisters were also a DIY project. We added quartz countertops in gray and a subway tile backsplash.

We completely reconfigured the area with the refrigerator, taking out the old pantry and installing a new, slide out pantry which allowed for a bigger refrigerator. Our contractor custom-built the pantry as well as the wine racks above the fridge. We added a shiplap feature wall later on (you can see how to install shiplap here). Initially, I had wanted to add the planks to the ceiling but we decided to do the wall instead.

We also added cabinet lighting in the upper cabinets as well as under the cabinets. That was a relatively easy DIY with big impact.

Red, White and Blue Patriotic Wreath

by RoxanneK, in category DIY, Seasonal, Wall Decor

Happy Fourth of July weekend! Hopefully you have an extended weekend off from work as I do this week. I’ve been busy as usual over here working on projects. If you need a last minute decor idea for your Fourth of July party, I have just the thing for you today. I made this cute Red, White and Blue Patriotic Wreath for my front door and it was incredibly easy!

What You Will Need*:

Red, white and blue bandanas

2 1/2″ Wired Star Ribbon (similar)

Embroidery Hoop (I used a 9″)

Rustoluem Weathered Gray Stain (optional)

I had two embroidery hoops, I made a Eucalyptus wreath with the first hoop, and had this one left over. The embroidery hoop comes in an unfinished wood tone. Just as I did with the first one, I painted my hoop with the Rustoleum weathered gray stain first. Once that was dry, I added a little bit of dark wax on mine to get the look of weathered wood.

Next I cut up the bandanas into strips of approx 16″ long. They will be folded in half when done, so double the length you’d like them to be when finished.

I tied them onto the bottom of the hoop, using only 7 of them for this project. You can see how to tie the knots for rag garland here.

Lastly, I cut the star ribbon into a little banner to place on the top half of the wreath. The ribbon I used was wired, so I was able to attach it just using the wire. Leave extra on the ends for that purpose, as shown below.

It’s really so cute, isn’t it? It’s so easy to make and takes about 15 minutes or less!

And whats more American than red, white and blue and bandanas?

For those of you who follow my blog regularly (thank you!) I wanted to mention my posting may be slightly off schedule for the next few weeks. I’m participating in a home tours summer series called Room by Room with some blogging friends which may affect the days I post. I am also working on a bigger project that is consuming all of my time, I’ll tell you more about that in a few weeks!

Dollar Store DIY – Striped Flowerpot

by RoxanneK, in category cheap decorating ideas, DIY

If you happened to see my last post featuring my front porch, you may have had a sneak peek at this little project. I love being able to pull off makeovers on a budget, so when my friend Rachael from This Is Our Bliss asked if I’d like to participate in a dollar store DIY challenge, I couldn’t resist. But I have to admit, coming up with a project using only dollar store items isn’t easy! To further complicate matters, we also had a theme for the projects, which is red, white and blue.

I found a pretty blue flowerpot at my local dollar store (I forgot to take a before picture of it), and decided to paint stripes white stripes on it for the Fourth of July. I used painters tape to block off the areas in between the stripes.

When I removed the tape, my lines weren’t totally perfect, so I touched those up with a small paint brush.

It’s still not 100% perfect, but I am okay with slight imperfections, they add charm right? I added a small American flag and some white impatiens to complete my dollar store DIY project.

If I had more time, I would’ve done 3 of these and used them as an outdoor centerpiece.

Be sure to stop by and see what my friends created with our Red, White and Blue dollar store challenge!

Upcycled Killie Pot Planter

by RoxanneK, in category DIY, Garden, How-to

Last weekend I visited my favorite flea market that only happens twice a year. I always come away with some amazing finds. I prep like an athlete in training for this one, lol. Get there early, stay hydrated, and do a super quick lap as soon as I get there to scout out the goods. Last year I picked up this cool little planter (which I’m calling my killie pot planter) that I thought you might be interested in seeing. I wish this was a DIY project I thought up myself, but it’s not. The baskets are killie pots used for fishing, and may also be referred to as a minnow trap*.

Isn’t that cool? When I bought it, it already had plants in it but they died over the winter. The only survivor was the cactus in one of the pots. It was my least favorite of the plants but I decided to keep it anyway and go with that theme. Inside the baskets are lined with burlap.

Here’s a better shot of the cactus plant. I had added a few small succulents in with it, but they were too small, so I took those back out.

In their place I added a string of pearls plant that I found in Lowe’s. The string of peals plant is somewhat hard to find around here, but I did notice that the Home Depot sells these succulents online. In the other basket I added a large succulent that I found at Home Depot. It’s called Flapjacks or “Kalanchoe luciae”. It’s the first time I’ve seen succulents of this size for sale. Usually I only see the mini ones.

I’m not sure exactly what the frame of the planter is, but it looks a lot like the frames that hold pet food bowls. The frame looks like it was spray painted a light greenish-gray color that closely matches the gray of the killie pots.

The bits of rust showing through the killie pots give it that farmhouse feel that I love.

Now if I can keep these succulents alive, we will be in good shape. I’ve had my killie pot planter in a mostly sunny area for about a two weeks now and the succulents seem to like it there so far.

This year at the flea market I found an amazing set of vintage corbels. I have big plans for those, I’ll share more on that soon!

How To Make A DIY Rag Garland In 3 Easy Steps

by RoxanneK, in category DIY, Home Decor, How-to

Happy Memorial Day! A few weeks ago I shared my daughter’s bedroom makeover. There were a few DIY projects I completed in that six weeks that I just didn’t have time to share during. One is the DIY rag garland over her bed. As I mentioned in that post, the wall decor I picked for over the bed was on backorder and didn’t arrive in time. I had to improvise at the last minute. I ended up pulling a frame off my bathroom wall to use here temporarily.

It’s a beautiful frame, but it looked a little empty on its own. If you regularly read my blog you know I love little banners and garlands. For this space I decided to try a fabric garland. I have a basket of scrap fabrics and ribbon that was just what I needed for this project. By making the rag garland banner, I was able to incorporate the colors of the room including a little green to echo the sliding barn door as well as more texture, which this bedroom is full of.

All that you need to make this is a few scraps of fabric and/or ribbons and a string. Twine would work, but I had this stretchy suede string* so that is what I used. First, lay out your string across the table and determine how long you want your fabric pieces to be. Once you determine that number, double it. I wanted mine to hang 6″ from the string, so I cut them each to a length of 12″. I didn’t measure the width, I kept that somewhat random.

Next you tie each strip of fabric onto the string forming a knot. You can see below exactly how I tied mine (forgive the weird lighting, I did this project one night when I was in a panic that my bedroom makeover wouldn’t be finished in time). 1. Fold your fabric in half, place it under the string and fold the bottom half up over the string, to the right. 2. Bring the two bottom pieces through the loop and pull until it forms a knot. It looks simple, but it actually took me a few tries to get the hang of this.

This is how it will look. This is the back of the knot, once you have all of your fabric pieces on your string, just flip the entire banner over. I recommend not making the knot so tight that you can’t slide it around on your string. Once you have all of the fabric pieces on, you may want to adjust the placement of your fabric pieces a bit.

You can also trim the ends of the fabric if desired once you have them all in place. I trimmed mine so that it was longest in the center, and gradually got shorter toward the outside.

Although I didn’t have my chosen wall decor in time for the deadline of this room makeover, I think this worked out pretty well.

Especially because I was able to add a little bit of green to go along with the sliding barn door we built for the space.

A rag garland would also be good for holiday decor because it’s easy and inexpensive to make. Just incorporate holiday colors into the mix.

How To Make A Custom Pillow Cover

by RoxanneK, in category Cricut Projects, DIY

My oldest daughter graduated college last week, which is hard for me to believe. She will be moving back home soon after living at school for the last four years. While she was away I slowly began taking over her room as extra storage space. My daughter is a neat freak so I’ve been busy getting it decluttered before she gets home. While I was cleaning out her closet I found a plain pillow cover. I like a trio of pillows on the bed, and I was one short in her room, so I made a custom pillow cover to round it out.

I wanted the phrase “together we shine” on this pillow so I got out my Cricut Explore Air 2* machine and got to work. I opened up the Cricut design space at Cricut.com and typed in the first part, “together we”. To change the colors of the lettering in the design space you click the Layers tab and then click on the scissors icon below. For this it didn’t really matter which color I used, because I would be printing it out on my black iron-on adhesive. I changed it to black anyway to get a visual of the finished outcome.

To change the font, you click on the Edit tab which will bring you more options. You can choose from a list of fonts here, I like to experiment with several to see how it looks. For the “together we” portion I used the Lucinda Handwriting font and for “Shine” I used Cricut Classics Tall Ball. You can also adjust the spacing of your letters here. I moved mine closer together for the “together we” portion so they’d be easier to transfer. If you prefer to move the letters one at a time, you can do so by isolating the layers.

To resize a word or phrase, click on that layer and just click and hold the mouse on the arrow in the bottom right corner of the word.

I wanted to print each section separately for my custom pillow cover because I wanted the first half on my black iron-on adhesive and the second half on gold foil adhesive. To do this, I highlighted the “together we” portion and clicked the green “C” button on my toolbar. This brings you to the next screen where you need to choose what type of material you will be printing on. For iron-ons click the mirror image box so that it prints out backwards. It will be facing the right way when you apply it to your material.

After that was printed, I highlighted the next part and did the same. changing the material to gold foil adhesive.

You will see the layers in this section shown on the left. Click the section you want and select your desired material.

Once I had everything printed out it was time to transfer. For the iron on, I peeled off the parts I didn’t want and used my scraper tool for the smaller bits. This part gets a little tedious.

I ironed on my “together we” phrase first. I placed a piece of material over the letters before ironing. You will have to apply some pressure to get the letters to adhere to the fabric. Once that part was finished, I used the transfer tape method to apply the next section, just as I did with this project.

That’s it, with my custom pillow cover, I now have a super cute trio of pillows for my daughter’s bed. Because I used the gold foil adhesive, I’m not going to ever put this in the washing machine. It will have to be spot-cleaned. You can find the fringe pillow here and a similar gold polka dot pillow here.

I told my family we could make our own T-shirts with our Cricut Explore Air 2 and they were pretty excited at the thought of that. But those will have to wait because I have a few more project ideas in the home decor department to make with this. The possibilities are pretty endless!

If you missed my previous Cricut projects you can see my DIY Banner here and my custom chalkboard here!

How To Build A Sliding Barn Door For Less

by RoxanneK, in category Before and After, DIY, How-to

Thank you all for the positive feedback on my recent bedroom makeover. You all really loved the green sliding barn door so much I wanted to share how we built it in case anyone is interested in making one for yourselves. You can find pre-made sliding barn doors at the home improvement stores but you’ll pay between $400-$500 for one. The total cost of materials for ours, including the hardware was under $200.

We wanted our door to cover the closet so we could get rid of the existing bi-fold doors. The width of our closet is 4′ so we constructed our sliding barn door to be 4′ wide and 7′ tall.

Tools Needed*:

Tape Measure

Materials Needed:

1″ X 6″ X 8′ Tongue and Groove Shiplap

1″ X 6″ X 8′ Pine

1″ X 4″ X 8′ Oak for Guide Rail Support

Barn Door Hardware

Coarse Drywall Screws 1″

Countersink Bit

How To Build A Sliding Barn Door:

First you will need to measure the size of your door opening and determine the width and height you want your door to be. Our door opening is 4′ wide, so we built ours to be 4′ wide and 7′ tall. The tongue and groove shiplap is the base of our door so we trimmed each of those planks to 7′ tall. We also had to alter one of ours vertically to get it to our desired width of four feet.

Lay the shiplap planks flat & attach them together with the tongue & grooves. Be sure all pieces are in place. Remeasure, and then frame the 1 X 6 pine on top of the shiplap.

Use wood clamps to hold the pine in place at this point and add your diagonal pieces.

Mark holes for the countersink bit evenly to assure the 1 X 6 pine will be secured to the shiplap. Drill holes with the countersink bit, be sure to only drill down enough to flush the head of screw into the 1 X 6 frame. We used a 4-hole pattern distributed evenly around the frame of the door. If you want a really rustic look you can leave the holes exposed, we filled ours in, as you can see below.

Lay your door hardware on the frame (as shown above), measure and mark where you will need to drill holes for the door guides. Do the same for the handle. We drilled the holes but didn’t attach the hardware at this point because I wanted to paint the door first.

We bought our hardware kit from Ebay, because it was far cheaper than anywhere else that I looked. They had 6′ and 8′ hardware kits available. We of course bought the 8′ but if you are doing a standard size doorway, you will likely need the six-foot. Our kit included everything we needed (except the handle) including the floor guide. When using the floor guide you need to route the bottom of the door to create a track for the guide. We routed a 3/8 channel across the bottom of the door. ( you will need clamps and a piece of scrap wood to clamp the router guide as shown above).

At this point I painted the sliding barn door. I first used Rust-oleum weathered gray stain, followed by chalk paint in green. I slightly sanded and distressed the door with a sanding sponge once the green was dry. I finished with a coat of dark wax for chalk paint. I considered giving it a DIY weathered wood finish but opted for green in this room instead.

How to Hang the Sliding Barn Door:

To hang the door, we first hung the piece of oak on the wall to attach the track to for added support. Find where the studs are and mark with a pencil above and below each stud the length of the oak support, Find your center point and level for the oak support piece. Drill holes for the hardware to attach to the oak piece to the wall. We painted our oak the same color as the walls so it would blend in. Attach lag bolts to oak piece and secure with a cordless ratchet driver.

Once the piece is secured to the wall, you can lay out the support rail onto the oak piece. Mark the rail support holes to the oak piece. Drill a pilot hole for attaching the rail hardware to the oak. Attach top rail hardware and make sure it’s level and secure. Hang barn door onto top rail guide and check that it’s sliding properly.

Hardware for the Bottom of the Sliding Barn Door:

Next, install bottom guide to the floor or molding. Our hardware kit came with the floor guide, but once we had installed new flooring in this room I really didn’t want to drill into it. So we ended up ordering this wall guide that attaches to the baseboard molding instead. We have yet to install that.

It’s definitely a major improvement from the bi-fold closet door that was here before.

One Room Challenge Bedroom Makeover Reveal

by RoxanneK, in category Before and After, DIY, One Room Challenge

Last week one of my blogging friends posted that this One Room Challenge is making her feel like the mayor of crazy town. Hilarious, but so true!

I thought choosing a bedroom for my ORC makeover would be easy, especially after completely renovating my kitchen in six weeks. I should know by now with any renovation project it always takes longer and is more involved than initially planned. But after 6 weeks of actual blood, sweat and even a few tears, here is my finished space!

This is what we started with…

and now…

Before…

And after….

A drastic improvement for sure even though not everything went as I had planned. I had to make a few compromises and find a few substitutes for my original plans. One of which was the desk chair. The one I really wanted was just not in budget at this time. I found the cane chair at an antique store for $20 and gave it a makeover to better suit the room.

Finding the right headboard was a huge stress factor in this makeover for several reasons. When I was in the very beginning stages of planning my design, I visited an antique store where I found the perfect headboard that ever existed. It was completely unique and only $40! But sadly, it was a king size and I needed a full. There was no way to make it work. So I planned my design still with that in mind, thinking maybe I’d find something similar somewhere else. I didn’t. In addition to that, not all full beds are created equal in size and I needed exactly 55″ width or it wouldn’t fit with my nightstands. Every time I found one that worked with the design, it was the wrong size. Then my husband and I decided to DIY one. But with the clock ticking, I realized two weeks ago that there was no way we had time for that too. Finally, I found this one from Wayfair* that fit the space and the design. I love it, but honestly I don’t know if I’ll ever get over that first headboard from the antique store. First world problems, I know.

For the bedding, I knew I wanted a white and linen combo. However, buying linen duvet covers or blankets can get really expensive. To get the look for less, I found these amazing linen sheets from Bed, Bath & Beyond. I used them in combination with white bedding to achieve the white and linen look without having to spend hundreds of dollars.

I also spent an asinine amount of time picking the right throw pillow combination. Again, there were pillows that got away, sold out just when I needed them! I do love what I ended up with here though. (You can find the floral pillow here and the neutral textured pillow here).

Of all of the projects in the room, I have to say the barn door that my husband built might be the showstopper of the room. My daughter’s favorite color is green, so I painted it green, with a farmhouse distressed finish. No more bi-fold closet doors!! You can see how we built the barn door here.

chandelier

As for the hanging orbs, I’ve had those in a closet for at least a year waiting for the right place to use them. My plan was to turn those into chandeliers for over the nightstands. I had bought pendant lighting kits to do that but at the last-minute I decided I really didn’t want a wire hanging down the wall. Since my daughter wanted me to add string lights somewhere in the room, I wrapped these orbs with glimmer strings for now. I still plan to make those chandeliers in the future. (To my husband, you’re not getting out of that DIY project!).

Of all the projects in this room, it was the curtain rod that nearly put me over the edge. As I was hanging it on the wall, the nails weren’t grabbing. So I started again, using the anchors this time. Even the anchors were falling out. It was as if the wall was crumbling around it. SO frustrating. Luckily my husband came home and was the voice of reason in my distress (this is a role reversal for us!) and fixed it all up for me. He said the screws were too short and so were the anchors!

For the desk area, I wanted to pack in as much storage space as possible to help keep things organized. This little desk organizer is perfect. In a small space sometimes you have to hide things in plain sight.

I also picked up this multi-functional rolling cart. This will be used for my daughter’s extra notebooks and text books as well as for her makeup. She can roll it right over to the mirror when she needs it. I could think of a use for this in every room.

I added an ottoman to the end of the bed for extra clothing storage. With the nightstands and this storage ottoman, it eliminated the need for a dresser, freeing up space for the desk.

rug/serving tray (similar)

I kept things mostly neutral but I did add a few pops of green to echo the barn door. I added books with green to the nightstands.

comforter set/chandelier

I also added a bit of green to my DIY garland above the bed. The beautiful wall decor I originally chose for this space is still on backorder, I still plan on using it when it comes in. In the meantime, I pulled that frame right off my bathroom wall to hang above the bed. I made the garland because the frame looked a little bare and I wanted to incorporate a little more green.

I also brought a few touches of green in the artwork above the desk. (You can find the art shelves here, the barn print here and the cow print here.)

Because the room is mostly neutral in color, I relied heavily on textures for this space.

Clockwise: fringe pillow, basket and textured blanket, fringe bed skirt, textured woven blanket

Now that the six-week challenge is over, it feels a little like Christmas. It was a whirlwind leading up to it and now I have a lot of catching up and cleaning up to do.

Thanks to my husband for getting on board the six-week crazy train with me again. For building the beautiful barn door, helping me install the flooring, fixing my curtain rod disaster and all of the other details, too long to list here!

Thanks also to my wonderful sponsors who made this makeover possible: The Home Depot (flooring) , Metrie (crown molding), Bed Bath & Beyond, Minted, Antique Farmhouse, and Flowings Etsy shop. Thanks also to my contractor for installing the beautiful crown molding.

To say this was an exhausting six weeks is really an understatement. I can’t wait until the next one, lol.
