DIY Glitter Light Switch Cover Plate

DIY Glitter Light Switch Cover Plate

I have a quick DIY that I'm excited to share with you today. To continue the purple theme, The Dot and I made this cute purple glitter light switch cover to go in her newly decorated room. The entire project took less than ten minutes (not including drying time) and cost under $10 to make. We made ours purple of course, but it's easy to customize.

The Dot’s Purple Bedroom Makeover

The Dot’s Purple Bedroom Makeover

Hello and Happy New Year! It's been a whirlwind January around here project-wise. I haven't officially totaled them all up, but I have at least ten projects in the works at the same time.

New white bedding and DIY euro pillows

New white bedding and DIY euro pillows

I know it's not officially winter yet, but our master bedroom is decked out in its winter whites. Or at least the bed is. You may recall this post from a while back in which I updated the bedding in our master bedroom with a beach-themed blue and seagrass palette. This is what it looked like before: Well after living with color for a couple of years, I decided to go back to my self-described "very plain and very very white" bedding. Except new white bedding. Sort of. I have had my eye ... continue reading...

About me

Hi! I'm Lauren. Welcome to my blog, where I write about DIY projects, home decor, and decorating on a budget. With 3 kids under the age of 5, my house not always as neat in real life as it looks on the blog, but I find a way to embrace (and organize) the chaos.
