DIY Live Edge Mirror

Between working on the store and working... well, at work... I haven't been able to juggle many home projects. But, there is one project I have been wanting to do that I was able to find a few days to swing, and I am so stoked about it! I have been wanting to transform a floor mirror I purchased at Target a few years ago into a live edge mirror using a cut off piece of lumber from the fireplace mantle I made a few months ago.

DIY Office Nook Makeover

Once in a blue moon, I'll give a space a makeover... and then make it over all of again. Styles and tastes are ever changing (and, that's okay)! Especially when a space I designed forms a new purpose... like the basement office nook I created at my parents' house! Over the past year or so my little brother Jordan has turned the office nook into his dedicated space for editing my videos. So, to help say thank you to him for helping me out, I gave this office nook a makeover with a faux brick wall, floating shelf, and some storage upgrades!
