Breakfast Nook with Thrifted Furniture

February 16, 2016 By Meegan 9 Comments

There are those times when you have a vision of what you think your home should look like. It’s in your head, but you aren’t sure if you can actually make it happen.

That is how I designed our Breakfast Nook with Thrifted Furniture.

I didn’t move into our small condo thinking, “We need a breakfast nook.” I didn’t know what to do with this space-at all. I knew it wasn’t big enough for a large table and yet we still needed a place to eat. The bar is too high for stools, unless we wanted our dinner plates at shoulders height. Boo-that didn’t sound comfy…

Beachy Condo Porch Ideas

July 13, 2015 By Meegan 11 Comments

If you know me at all, you know I LOVE the beach. I love the sand in my toes, the ocean breeze, the smells, the sounds and walking on the pier. On occasion, I have been know to even ride the waves, body surfing. It is such a thrill to be in the water. The ocean is therapeutic for me.

AND, if you have been following me for awhile, you KNOW I don’t live anywhere near the ocean. Since I have been craving it lately, I thought it would be fun to make my own Beachy Condo Porch Ideas.

Beachy Condo Porch

Our porch is tiny so I had to be careful NOT to make it TOO full.

I shopped my house for a few things and love the results…
