Welcome back! It has been a couple weeks since I have done a weekly favorites blog, but no worries now because we are back in business! Here are some of my and your guys favorite links throughout this past week. In no particular order. Scroll to have a look.New Paragraph

Rust-oleum Home White Interior Base Paint. This past week I did a fun project (you may have already been following along if you follow me on Instagram) But we have a little guest house next to the house and I painted the floors in there white!! The difference it makes the room feel along with the other touches I did in the space, oh I love it. Click HERE to check out what paint I used for the floors.

#4

Retro Bottom Freezer Refrigerator. In the eating/everything and anything area in the cabin we have this retro fridge in it for fun summer drinks for easy to grab snacks. We love the convenience of it and how could you not thing it is the cutest thing too! Click HERE to look.

#3

Creative Co-op Plaid Throw. I have this pretty Black and Tan Plaid throw blanket in the office area in our home draped on the back of my desk chair. It’s such a cozy piece, especially on cold Minnesota winter days. Click HERE to look.

#2

Wood Arched Floor Mirror. You’ve all possibly already seen this beauty before when I’ve shared it but I ordered one for myself to put into the new mudroom and may I say it is the perfect fit! Not too big but also not too small. Its you want to see the full look of how I designed the room head over to my Instagram to see! Click HERE to check out the mirror.

#1

Esters Wood Armchair. These chairs have been around my house for a while now. I had them in our living room and now I recently added them to the new look of the guest house just a couple feet from out house. I love the neutral yet a little modern look yet still comfy to sit in. Click HERE to look.

The Oaks final outdoor reveal
By Allie Lundeen August 14, 2025
I pulled off the biggest surprise I've ever done... I can't believe it!! So a little back story - 17 years ago Ryan sold his prized possession, his 1991 Mazda Miata, to help fund a much needed mini van for our baby on the way. After I got pregnant I quit my job and we went from 2 incomes down to 1 income. We knew that a 2 person convertible just wasn't practical and that the finances could be used in a better way. So we sold it... Fast forward 17 years and it all comes back full circle. I put my 17 year old son Tate on the task of finding us a Miata that looked just like dads, and he blew it out of the water. He found the perfect car on Facebook Marketplace In great condition! He drove almost 3 hours to pick it up with a buddy and pulled off the best surprise ever!!! Also to note Tate has never driven through the Twin Cities or Driven a stick shift on any road besides a gravel one close to the cabin. BUT he was confident and crushed the challenge!! We stored it for the night and gave it to him the next day! I think Ryan's reaction says it all (watch the mini vlog below!) Our "19th" anniversary isn't until November but what fun is a convertible if you can't drive it in the summer, so we gave it to him early and are so happy we did! *make sure to read until the end for a good laugh ;)
