Buy My House? | Home Tour
Selling our second home is a drastically different experience than the first. With our first home, it was a whirlwind. I had 21 showings in 17 days. I had an 8-month-old baby. I was in a constant state of cleaning, and had a constant battle with nausea. We received a near full-price offer, contingent on […]
We’ve officially lost our minds. | #MoCoFixer
So, we bought a house this weekend. Didn’t see that coming, did you? Well, neither did I really. A week ago, I was planning new counter tops in my kitchen. And you know how one home project tends to kind of spiral into 10 home projects? Somehow solid-surface counter samples turned into a new fixer […]

Rapunzel’s Tower | Dorothy’s Big Girl Room
It has almost been a full year since I posted about my inspiration for Dorothy’s big girl room. A YEAR. I would call this the ultimate #MomFail, but a lot has changed at the Cotten house in the last 12 months. The former plan for Dorothy’s big girl room was completely tossed when I found out […]
Cinderella Nursery Tour + $150 Minted Giveaway!
It’s a big day here on the blog! Our littlest princess is scheduled to arrive in shortly over eight weeks, and her nursery is officially finished. I’m so excited to share it with you! Last summer, I started Operation Big Girl Room. When we moved to this house, I didn’t put much thought into poor Dorothy’s new […]
How To Dye Easter Eggs With A Toddler
Don’t. The answer is, “don’t.” You know that look of horror 98 percent of kids have when they have to sit on some guy wearing a rabbit costume’s lap at the mall? That’s what I looked like on the inside while dying eggs with Dorothy. “But every two year old needs that 3.5 minutes of Easter […]
Inspiration | Dorothy’s Big Girl Room
Before Dorothy was born, I spent a lot of time putting together her navy and coral nursery. I had specific paint colors, and matching sheets, and custom-made decor. I wanted everything to be just so when we brought our little bundle home, and it was. It looked as if Etsy and Pinterest exploded. Then we […]
Holy Mother of Junk | All About That JUNK
Last weekend my best girlfriends and I took our {what used to be annual, turned semi-annual, turned quarterly} trip to Ohio. The agenda always includes IKEA, outlet mall shopping and plenty of mini bottles of wine – because what could be better than a hotel slumber party with four grown women? These quick trips away […]
