I've had a few requests for the "final bathroom reveal". I was having a hard time waiting for the right light and some finishing details...There are a couple little loose ends but I won't make you wait any longer for the reveal... My friends, below is our journey to our new bathroom:</div>

Here is our bathroom right at the beginning of the demo - the floors are torn up. The "white" tile you see in the shower was actually maroon tile that was painted white by previous owners. AND - the tub was also painted. This is what really spurred on the renovation: chipping paint on the tub walls and bottom. The tiles to the right of the shower curtain are gray and you can see the maroon accent tiles. The bathroom is relatively small, with the door opening in and taking up space. During the remodel we decided to install a pocket door. </div>

On the LEFT is the wall where the toilet was and where the pocket door kit would be installed. On the RIGHT was where the medicine cabinet was. The cabinet/mirror and the vanity was oak and not in great shape due to some leaks.</div>

Yikes. This was crunch time - our only tub/shower in the house was gone. This was the hardest part of the demo. We had some issues w/ the new tub and ended up finally setting the THIRD tub. The first two had small, hairline cracks that were not discovered until we had the tub in place. This phase was supposed to be a weekend project but, unfortunately, took longer. </div>

Tiles are going up and I'm getting excited. The space is really taking shape. We did the whole renovation ourselves so, at times, this meant little helpers wanted a piece of the action. Here's Daddy teaching little ones how to tile.</div>

The shower is tiled and dry wall is up! The pine along the left wall will soon be up for pine paneling that we will whitewash.</div>

Pine paneling is up. The new vanity is also here! We could not find a small, simple vanity that we liked. We wanted real wood and affordable. I designed this piece and my dad made it for us. I love it and it's so special because it was hand made and delivered by my dad. </div>

Lots of progress made here: floor tile in, walls painted and white washed and sink is set. I love the look of farmhouse sinks and was hoping to find a small farmhouse sink we could use. I am so pleased with this one!</div>

And there you have it - the complete transformation! We are very pleased with the results. I love the fresh, clean look of the subway tile and am so glad we decided on the dark grout. I'm also very pleased w/ the tiles floors. We went with larger tiles and a light gray grout. We incorporated a lot of reclaimed items and we like the feel of new but still lived in and homey.</div>

Simple tabletop ingrediants: fresh greens, candles, pinecones, ornaments. </div>

I chose fresh cedar greens along with long needle pine boughs. Then, I added some of my favorite decor items of the season: brass taper holders. Along with the brass taper holders I used vintage brass egg cups and placed ornaments in them. (If you want to personalize your place settings you could use plain ornaments and write or paint your guests name on them). Pinecones were scattered along the display to keep the theme "woodsy." Plus, I'm all about using natural items for decoration. It's simple, fresh & free!</div>

The wreath above is one I made for my dad while walking through the pines on the property where I grew up. I love creating; when I can create and be outside I feel so content. Creating is the at the center of home.style.heart - creating homes and rooms where you feel most content and connected to your home. </div>

This season, I strayed from the traditional Christmas colors, for my mantle, and added light some blues and yellows. I will probably thin out the decor on the mantle and leave this color scheme up for the New Year. I love how it feels really wintery without being over the top Christmas-y.</div>

Apples we picked, turkey feathers from our backyard, antique books, a candle - a lot of beautiful autumn pieces together can create a great centerpiece.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The next arrangement is similar in taking some favorite fall elements and showcasing them on a scrap of plaid flannel. I would love to see what you create for your tablescapes! Follow me on instagram: @home.style.heart and tag me in the comments!</div>

fall provides such a bountiful harvest for home decor:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
pumpkins. gourds. apples. squash. cornstalks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
gather 'em up and scatter accordingly :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbGmfTojb8sDpU8BeLxmODYiKIdI6-y3FEd5eqNiShSPO1NyWRAahR3DFAIkOYLGCAxIM-hupYEDSwQK7s-MrDaTkdzCigNmeNFMy7lq8sxIxDYyQhDsq3uTOv3uozLtY7MA4P1w5rqlzt/s1600/IMG_7038.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbGmfTojb8sDpU8BeLxmODYiKIdI6-y3FEd5eqNiShSPO1NyWRAahR3DFAIkOYLGCAxIM-hupYEDSwQK7s-MrDaTkdzCigNmeNFMy7lq8sxIxDYyQhDsq3uTOv3uozLtY7MA4P1w5rqlzt/s640/IMG_7038.jpg" width="512" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a simple table arrangement can be beautiful:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
put your basket of apples in the middle, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
surround with candles, pumpkins, gourds,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
then gather around with friends & family.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the decor is great but, the food is better:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
fresh apples. pumpkin coffee. hot, fresh cinnamon donuts. steamy cider.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
below is [part of] our apple bounty from picking 2 weekends ago.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of all the fall activities - apple picking with my dad is my favorite.</div>

A few table centerpieces for you to get inspired for your Easter table:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
#1: I gathered things from around my house: plants, candles, etc... I used browns, greens, whites and mixed different metals: brass, copper, silver and some amber jars. Everything is displayed in a circular tray. This is a simple, clean centerpiece and fairly neutral. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
#2: For this centerpiece: gather your pretty dishes...stack them, place them in groups, scatter them down the center of the table. This is an elegant and pretty display. Stick with common colors if you want a consistency through the display.</div>

#3: This theme is a little "jungle-y" - if you live in an area where you have lush greens this would be easy for you. Here, in Rochester, outside is brown and brown. Instead of gathering from the yard, I used plants from the house. This centerpiece is fun for plants, succulents and fresh flowers.</div>

I'm really loving it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The new, bigger mirror opens up the room more. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And decorating mantles is on my top 5 of "things I love to decorate." If you have a mantle (or other home area) that needs a little spring makeover - I'd love to help! If you're local to the Rochester area and would like a consult, please contact me at: homestyleheart@gmail.com</div>

This post is a simple coffee table styling tutorial. I was motivated today to do a lot of cleaning and rearranging. Spring is here and I want to brighten up our home! <div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are the elements of this easy decor combo: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a tray, candles and candle holders, a plant and plant holder.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
When it comes to decorating elements it's so important to remember differing heights! You know sometimes when you do an arrangement that you're so proud of but, then, you step back and look at it and disappointedly think, "oh...maybe not..." A lot of times this has to do with needing varying heights. Mix up the heights! Get candles of different heights, stack books or plates to add height. Find items from other parts of the house. Keep arranging until it looks right - for me, this can sometimes mean arranging and rearranging numerous times - especially with bigger projects: a big mantle display or rearranging furniture in a room. </div>

The tray in the pic was a house warming gift. If you don't have a tray or two, I recommend keeping your eyes open for one (or two). Trays are great to hold a display together, to make a centerpiece in, to use for serving at parties... The white speckled candle holder I got many years ago at <a href="http://www.dollartree.com/home.jsp" target="_blank">Dollar Tree</a> (you can find candles and glass holders there good for decorating). The pillar candles are from various stores. I always keep a good stock of pillar candles for when I change up the mantle or if I need them for a centerpiece. <a href="http://www.christmastreeshops.com/?code=SHIPNOW&device=c" target="_blank">Christmas Tree Shop</a> has very reasonable pillar candles too.</div>

Growing up we had a family basket that mom filled with yummy candy and had in the middle of our dining room table. In our family we fill simple baskets and hide them. The fun for the kiddos is hunting for the baskets and then enjoying the goodies. The fun for momma is picking out the goodies for the baskets and filling them!<br />

I was inspired by <a href="http://www.armelleblog.com/" target="_blank">armelleblog</a> on instagram when she shared her idea of placing tiny photo books in Easter eggs! When I saw these eggs I knew they'd be perfect to hold the tiny books. I like the look of the jagged edge when the eggs are open. These eggs are from <a href="http://www.dollartree.com/home.jsp" target="_blank">Dollar Tree</a> - 3 for $1. </div>

As soon as I saw these books from <a href="http://printstagr.am/" target="_blank">Social Print Studio</a> I was sold!! I love their teeny tiny size and the fact that they're hard cover. I've ordered books before and have been very pleased with the quality and affordability. You can order yours <a href="http://printstagr.am/products-photobooks" target="_blank">HERE</a>. These sweet littles were 3 for $10. I'm already picking out what to order next - maybe their poster or mini squares. The calendar would be a great gift! My mind is busy with all the ideas you can create!</div>

My mind was a-flurry of projects, decorating and renovation ideas; but, these things take time and money... so we started slowly with small, simple projects here & there. Then, it became apparent that the bathroom remodel would have to happen sooner than later. The tub, which had been painted yes, I said <i>painted</i>, was chipping everywhere. Plumbing was a mess and the sink was leaking and tub wasn't draining. Window also leaking. So...on 2/28/15 demo began. Here's a couple pics so far. As I type this hubby is working on it right now and that'll be the next progress pic.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A somewhat "before" pic. Cannot really see how bad the tub is. The white tile you see is actually dark maroon tile that's been painted white. The floor has already been taken up in this picture too.</div>

Wowza. This was rough. This was a stage of "creative showering." We have 2 bathrooms in the house but only one full. I have dreams of adding 2 more showers. Yes, I'm crazy like that. My husband will cringe when he reads this...hey, dreamers gonna dream.</div>

Hi, new tub. And by new tub, I mean new tube #3. Our first 2 tubs were cracked (nobody's fault, this happens sometimes with fiberglass - tiny, hairline cracks). This was a frustrating and trying stage. Taking us to 1.5 weeks without a shower in the house. </div>

This may be a little bit of a slow start (see "about me" for other things that occupy my time) but, I'm glad you're reading along. I hope for this space to encourage you with simple ways to make your house a home - a place where you can get ideas, inspiration, tips, etc...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm sure I'll have some growing pains along the way as blogging isn't necessarily my strength. But, I wanted a outlet for my creativity and I have a little dream of starting a side business of design and decor. Even if this dream lives through blogging and instagram it feels good to do this!</div>

Photo above: our dining room farmhouse table w/ an $8 runner from Marshalls and a floral hostess gift given to me from hosting a brunch last week.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Marshalls, TJ Maxx & Home Goods are great "go tos" for table runners. You can often find them for under $10. Another simple runner idea that is easy peasy and VERY affordable is a roll of cute wrapping paper (think $1 section of Target) unrolled on table. Going to the fabric store and buying burlap is also a fun and versatile runner. In my opinion, a runner adds a lot to a room is a great foundation for a fabulous table setting.</div>
