There’s still a lot to do in my #diy home office, but it’s *finally* starting to become a functional room again! Loving how the rug really ties the room together. 😏 I still need to make the built-ins look more… built-in. Paint touchups, floating desk, trim, & window seat doors are all next too.

The floors: DONE! ✅ My husband pulled off a miracle and got the rest installed between online meetings & work calls. We even got my rug and a little desk put in, so that I could play #dnd for the first time in here 🥺 9.5 months of planning and #diy work, and its finally my own space again!

#diy home office update: - Hard to see from the backlit photo, but the 2nd coat of paint is on the window seat! Leaning more to that dark & moody fairytale vibe. - Flooring is now ~50% installed 😍 - Also 👀 those outlet covers! They make me so happy.

Flooring time! Can’t believe how close we are to actually being done. We’re doing the floors and window seat paint this week. (It will be the same color as the arch wall). Next is the floating desk with white bead board above, lots of trim, and I can officially move my office back in! 😳 #diy

Hardware is up! 😱 #diy #interiordesign #homeoffice #anthropologie

So many new updates on my #DIY home office! ✅ audio cable run in walls ✅ cabinets installed ✅ butcher block cut and sealed ✅ window seat designed and built (minus the doors) I’ve also shortened and tied up my blinds cords so the toddler can’t reach them (although he’s not allowed in here yet haha)

Uppers are up! Spent most of the day ripping up staples, carpet tack strips, and removing all of the baseboards. But things are starting to feel very real now! #diy

Goodbye old dog-piss-filled carpets! My nose will NOT miss you!! 🤮 And hello beautiful, messy subfloor. ✨ The vision is slowly but surely coming to life! #diy #homeoffice #interiordesifn

More than 2 months (and 1 mostly-recovered wrist injury later), and the cabinet painting is finally complete! Y’all, this took FOUR coats of paint to do by hand. 😭 Next up: drilling hardware holes, and removing the baseboards and nasty carpets for some secret cable runs. 🕵️‍♀️ #diy #interiorsesifn

Priming takes forever when you don’t have a sprayer! 🙃 I am still hoping for a professional-ish finish, using a “dry rolling” technique I found online. The primer absolutely needs 2 coats, as dry rolling picks up most of the paint back up. Hope the slow and steady approach will be worthwhile. #diy

So when anyone hears me talking about fairies, THIS is what I mean!! This piece (“Fairies and the Peasant Girl” by Yuliya Litvinova) has haunted me *in the best way* since I first saw it ~2018. I’ve always dreamed of owning a print, and now I do! #art #fae Link: www.artstation.com/artwork/JlaRPA

Here’s a glimpse into the process behind "The Light We Carry," a new piece for my solo show at Haven Gallery opening this Saturday! It began as an underpainting on an 18×24 inch copper panel.

Last night’s sunset! I was late putting the baby to bed, but when I saw that telltale lavender glow radiating from down the hall, we dropped everything to run outside and just take it all in for a few minutes. I love how it makes everything feel candy-coated IRL. 😍

Got 1 of the 4 cabinets sanded today (excluding the doors). Phew. Sanding by hand is not my strong suit haha. I could use an electric sander, but my prime sanding time is during the baby’s nap so I’m concerned about noise levels. It’s only 4 cabinets though, so we will get there! 💪 #diy

My home office progress has been slow, but I’m gearing up for the next big push! The dark fairytale art I ordered from INPRNT is out for delivery today (finally!! 😭) Not sure if the mat in my frame is cut right for it, so I may have to get that fixed before I can share. 🧚‍♂️ #diy #interiordesign

Black Eyed Susan dangles hand forged in sterling silver. These are one of a kind, and looking for a home! Let me know if they need to be yours 💛

Eeeeeeeeeee they’re actually heeeeeere!!! FedEx came through only EIGHT DAYS EARLY (which is making me feel a tiny bit better about my art print from INPRNT being 3 days late. DHL of course, haha).

My home office renovations have been slow lately since the whole family has been sick. But we’re finally shaking it off now! Cabinets are next: repair, sand, prime, and paint. And I got these gorgeous mother of pearl drawer pulls on the way! 😍 #interiordesign #diy #anthropologie

Home sick w/ sick kiddo and sick baby on my birthday, but making the most of it! Watching The Great Muppet Caper and admiring the area rug my family gifted me. (Test driving it in the living room until my home office remodel is finished!) So pretty 😍 Same flooring will be in my office someday!

more seen than I care to be, if I’m honest

Me waiting for my first ever order from INPRNT to ship, even though it’s going to be months before the walls are actually ready for art.

I’m eager to be engaging on this new platform- and I wanted to offer a discount JUST for you all! Enter “BLUESKY” at checkout for 20% off anything in my shop! Ends Sunday! 💛🤗

I saw this reviewer’s username on Amazon and I can’t stop thinking about it

Too many feelings. Maybe spring will help with that. Dear garden, Please wake up. …………….. More and more my bird sketches feel like self portraits.

Took a break from the home office makeover to flip this set of dining chairs. They came with the house and are lovely, but color didn’t match our decor and the seats were sunken from ~40 years of use. Finished dying them today and we redo the cushions starting tomorrow! #diy

Getting ready to dive in to the third book in the Emily Wilde series! For my matching bookmark, I’ve selected the paint chip “Connors Lakefront” (SW 9060) from Sherwin Williams. #heatherfawcett #emilywilde #booksky 💙📚

Just finished my re-read of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke. 864 glorious pages. It is still my favorite book, and I definitely enjoyed it even more the second time around. I don’t normally get sad when a book is over, but it hit me hard this time. #booksky 💙📚

Why are we like this? 🩷🧙‍♂️⚔️💙📚⏰ #BookSky #booksky #reading #booklover #readingcommunity #BookSkyFeed 🔁 #AmWriting 📚💙🖋️📚💙

Went a little wild this week with the paint chips. The gray we had picked for the room had too much blue in it, and I finally got fed up. I’ve switched to Sherwin Williams 9109 “Natural Linen” and I am absolutely in love with it!! #diy #interiordesign

It's officially my 4 year anniversary at Discord! I tried to take cute pictures with some of the plushies I have. Still can't believe it's been 4 whole years! Here’s to many, many, MANY more.

Looks like the gray wall paint I picked out was a fail. I kept telling myself it would look better once the old color was fully gone, but nope! Glad I stopped before the second coat.

The latest arrival for my bedside mini bookshelf. Gotta finish my Jonathan Strange re-read first, but then this will be next! 💙📚 #EmilyWilde #HeatherFawcett #booksky

The coolest turntable ever made.

Happy Valentine day !! ♥️

Me, to Baby: “Are you all done?” Baby (who can say: yes, no, and all done): “zeep.”

My third mural design on display! I loved making these food, coffee, and cocktail illustrations. Hand-drawn in #Procreate, vectorized in Illustrator, and printed in vinyls #art #GraphicDesign #Nashville (Designed for Stay Golden in Nashville, TN. Photo Credit: prettythingsnash on Instagram.)

Did some window shopping at World Market today. I’ve had my eye on this rug for a while now. Definitely fits the dark fairytale aesthetic I’m going for! #interiordesign #decor #diy

Siren's treasure ✨ [ #KuroArt #mermaid #fantasy #art #illustration #darkfantasy ] I created this illustration in collaboration with @xppen-it.bsky.social , who was kind enough to send me one of their tablets to try out! Review in 🧵

Thank god the Joann's near me is not closing (for now)! small businesses, stay at home moms, and and the elderly are keeping this place open

Congratulations on your new home printer! You may print 30 things error free over the next 3 months, and then, everything is going to fail!

My daily workout is following my 13-month old as he wanders free-range through the house and makes regular attempts to get himself into trouble. (He’s been at it for 40 min straight already!) Missing our daily neighborhood walks but it’s under 10 degrees F outside right now 🥶
