Recovering an Upholstered Barstool Seat

I'd like to say I am writing this post from a place of parental inspiration and accomplishment, but quite the opposite is true. Last week was rough in the Coon household. Rough as in pushing boundaries, eye rolling, unkind words, laziness, selfish ambition. You know, all those qualities that ...

I've learned a secret about goal-setting. I've learned that goal setting is not just about developing a list of systematic, time-driven accomplishments. Goal setting is not about pride, striving, or playing the comparison game. Goal setting is about personal growth. It is the ...
Shiplap Your Kitchen Island ~ All By Yourself!
If you've been watching my Instagram stories (ha! ~ can you believe I jumped on that train?) you know I've been tackling big things in our kitchen these last couple weeks. Big things as in attempting projects I've considered tackling for years but lacked the courage and the conviction to jump ...
