Master Suite Renovation with Gray and White Color Scheme

The master suite, it’s my favorite please in my house.  It’s my sanctuary, my place to escape the world and relax. So when it comes to renovating, it’s the first place I want to change.  It’s the place that starts it all, I redo it and then I want to put those changes into the rest of my house.  This master suite renovation has been happening for the past 4 years, we did it in sections but now it is completely down and I absolutely love it! There are several links in this post, which lead to the tutorials of all the different aspects of the room.

Tie Dye Pancakes {Best Pancake Recipe Ever}

Pancakes are a favorite at our house.  We love having them at our house, especially during the holidays.  We love having colorful pancakes and making them in fun shapes. One day I wanted to make fun, colorful pancakes and I decided that it would be fun to make tie dye pancakes, using the paint pouring method, just with the pancake batter. The first time I made these tie dye pancakes they were a huge hit for our family.  The kids loved them and loved making them.  They are so colorful, fluffy and delicious, seriously the best pancake recipe ever.

DIY Growth Chart Board

I have been wanting to make a growth chart board for my family for awhile now and finally got to it.  We have been using just a plain piece of wood for the past several years and my oldest got too tall for it, so it was time to get another one.  I noticed that all of the ones in the stores only seemed to go to 5 feet, which would give us the same problem as our plain board.  So I decided that I needed to make one for our family, it was super easy to make and I love how it turned out.  I love the simplicity of the white with the gray vinyl.  I’m excited to track my kids’ growth on this board :).
