ORC Trend: Black Interiors

November 21, 2016Categories: DecorSarah @ 702 Park Project

Have y’all had a chance to tour through all of the One Room Challenge reveals yet? I spent a good chunk of time over the weekend looking through not only the reveals of the top 20 designers, but also through the guest participants, and let me just tell you…these challenges just get better and better!

I noticed a lot of trends in these new spaces, but the one that really stood out to me was the use of black…black paint, black tile, black countertops…it was all there. So today I thought I’d share some of my black favorites.

One Room Challenge – Stairs & Hall – The Next Steps

November 16, 2016Categories: RenoSarah @ 702 Park Project

Well the One Room Challenge is over and we can all take a breather. But as any homeowner will tell you, the work is never done.

If you’re not familiar, the One Room Challenge is an event hosted by Linda at Calling It Home and House Beautiful where 20 designers make over a space from start to finish in just 6 short weeks. You can catch those designers each Wednesday, and the rest of us link up on Thursdays. I did my first Challenge last Spring and my second last Fall. And last week, I revealed my latest Challenge: our stairs and hallway!

Update: 30 Before 30

November 14, 2016Categories: Just For FunSarah @ 702 Park Project

Last week I turned 29. Just one more year until the big 3-0 and I’m feeling pretty good about it. It’s funny how priorities constantly change as you get older. My 20-year-old self would have guessed my 29-year-old self would be married with one or two kids, working part time while staying home with the kids part time, and living in our college town. I’m married, but that’s about the only similarity. And you know what? I am SO happy!

Once I gave up trying to fit my life into the perfect little square box I had always imagined, a world of new possibilities opened up. I feel settled for the first time in my adult life, and that feels great.

Friendly Features Vol. 4 – Andrew’s Flip

November 8, 2016Categories: Friendly FeaturesSarah @ 702 Park Project

To say that I have some very talented family and friends would be an understatement. It seems that all of my friends have a knack for something…painting, drawing, designing, decorating, cooking, baking. So what do you do when you’re a blogger and you have such brilliant friends? You blog about it, of course!

Today I’m sharing the most adorable house that’s just around the corner from us. Added bonus: it’s for sale! I have a special appreciation for people who take a home that’s right in their neighborhood and turn it into something beautiful. If you’re going to breathe new life into old houses, why not start with the ones you see regularly?
