At Charlotte's House

  • Favorite Summer Toys

    It’s been rainy for weeks here in the Northeast, but… when summer finally arrives, our kids are CLAMORING to get outside and run around the yard. Which leads me to today’s post… I wanted to share some of the Smith kids’ FAVORITE summer activities. (Aside from popsicle eating and s’mores.)

  • DIY Sliding Barn Door

    One of the projects I finished last in the master bathroom was that amazing sliding barn door, so today I’m going to share the tutorial for that with you. I made this door for WELL under $50 and it’s an amazing detail in the space!

  • Summer Porch Refresh- Seasonal Simplicity Summer Tour

    We have a lovely back porch that looks out over the backyard and opens up into the dining room. It’s the perfect spot for relaxing in the summer and it was one of the first spaces I tied together when we moved into this house a couple of years ago. I haven’t really touched it since and… it was time for a little bit of an update.

  • Summer is For… Picnics and Parties

    This month’s theme for our DIY Housewives round up is “picnics”. I’ve made these plates for other holidays and LOVE how simple they are. Adding just the right amount of budget cheer to our picnic festivities… these patriotic plates are about ready to make their summer appearance!

  • Faculty Room Makeover

    I have never been so eager to share a post as I am today! A couple of months ago, an email went out to our elementary school community from the PTA. As part of teacher appreciation week, they were hoping to give the teacher’s lounge a little pick-me-up. Like any good DIYer, I replied to the email and said I’d be happy to help!
