5 Beautifully Blue Kitchens

DIY Floral Wall Art and Frame Wall


After completing the hallway makeover, I began a new project of updating some of the wall decor in the Breckinridge house. I had been looking through Pinterest and became inspired by all of the navy, aqua, coral color schemes I had seen and decided that it was just what the Breckinridge house needed. Since pretty much all the updates I had made to the home consisted of zero color, the house was looking quite boring. A pop of color is exactly what it needed.

Painting the Kitchen Cabinets: Part 1

I recently started yet another project at my parent’s house. This one I am super excited about and have been wanting to tackle for a while… THE KITCHEN CABINETS! While some people may enjoy the look of oak cabinets, my mom and I do not. I’m glad we were both on the same page about wanting to see them gone. Like many other rooms in the house, the cabinets were giving off that dreaded orange tint, which made the room look small and yellow. Long story short, they had to go.

DIY Wood Letter Wall Decor and The Upstairs Hallway & Banister Makeover


One of the projects in My parent's house that, had been sitting somewhat finished for a while now and, looked like it would never be completed, was the upstairs hallway/staircase. I had tested a few paint colors a while back, so there were a bunch of random colors all over the walls, and it was as if the stairway had been staring at me ever since I tested those colors, begging to be completely painted. It was really just the staircase walls that needed some loving since I had already painted the upstairs hallway Behr Billowy Down when I painted the living room. Another thing making the staircase/hallway look so awful was the fact that I had painted the banisters in the entry room a few weeks ago and they looked so amazing painted white {not to mention made the world's biggest impact on the style of the top,} that looking at the hideous oak banister in the upstairs staircase and hallway made me cringe and want to cry every time I walked by. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that the staircase is located in the living room, so it was inevitable that I would see it whenever I went over to hang out and watch tv. There was no avoiding the ugly mess I had made. Therefore, I decided it was time to tackle the tall staircase and dark hallway and transform it from drab to fab! 
Here is a before picture of the staircase. As you can see there was a hogepoge of color going on and a disgusting oak banister that needed to go!

DIY Coral & Navy Floral Wall Decor

I had been trying to find something to fill the two frames hanging in the living room for about 4 months with no photos in them. I finally decided to go ahead and create something to put in them. I really wanted to incorporate coral and navy into the color scheme in the house and decided those would be the colors I would go with. I had been searching Pinterest for inspiration and found a few things I thought I would try to recreate in a way.
