Life has gotten so busy that I really only get to blog about once a year now- I know that’s pathetic, but with a busy business, homeschooling, and a toddler running around, life is a little hectic here at the Whalen household! So upon my return- LOL, I thought I would share some before and […]
A Blog long overdue:) There are so many things I’m crushing on right now in the design world, I thought I would share some of them with you! Let’s talk temporary wallpaper- yes it’s peel and stick wallpaper for the gun-shy person that has a fear of the permanent. They come in so many fun […]

Yes I know it has been a long long time since I wrote a blog. So what better way to spend Super Bowl Sunday than working:) No, I do not like football however I do have The Blindside on in the background!!! I’ve been wanting to share with you the before pictures from my Ballantyne […]
Happy Sunday Everyone! I have been trying to get around to this blog for quite some time, so with a quiet house this Sunday afternoon, here it goes! I completed this kitchen last year and it was shot for This Old House Magazine last November and hit newsstands a few months ago. My client was […]
