Ok folks, here is the other reveal ya'll have been waiting for!! The men's room at Sudbeck Service. Now I know most women have not seen in a men's room before, but that doesn't mean we can't look! I never thought I would be painting by a urinal or even using that word but hey, you never know what kind of decorating project will come up. I was excited to do something funky in this room. I went all out and tried to make it a funky/rustic/industrial space that guys would like. I don't think they really care what the place looks like they just go... but I think they all get a kick out of this space. I know they have been talking about it. So, here are the pics you have been waiting for. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You have to see the BEFORE's: Plain and uneventful....</div>

What a difference?! I love it! Handy man Aaron once again did an amazing job with the pallet and barn wood walls and trim. We still have a few more pieces of trim to put up around the baseboard. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The bullseye is off center on purpose. It's a joke, aim high, aim somewhere other than where you're supposed to and maybe you'll actually hit the target! hahaha</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love how the metal and wood look together. I combined galvanized metal along with a rusty metal on the mirror. The rust looks great with the wood flooring and brings a little warmth to the gray metal. I also painted the sink base a hammered metal look to tie in with the galvanized metal wall. The artwork is all in good fun and I think it all turned out great. I think the rustic and industrial elements are exactly what the space needed. </div>

I have some ideas to help you in the shopping department this year. I say let's support local, small town businesses, the stay at home mom's trying to earn a little extra cash to help give her kids piano lessons, or be in sports activities and such. How about support an organization that helps others get free from homelessness, abuse, sex trafficking, etc. I have some amazing companies I would love for you to check out and support this holiday season while you buy your loved ones something. Put some thought into it. You can make a difference.<br />
<br />
Remember to support your local downtown small businesses. They need your support to stay in business. They are so conveniently located and save you a trip to a bigger city anyway. You save time and gas and money. Win win for everyone! Buy a cup of coffee or hot chocolate from a small cafe, search for unique gift items at the small boutiques. They aren't really priced that much more!!<br />
<br />
I love supporting my sweet friend, <a href="http://paigeknudsen.com/" target="_blank">Paige</a>, with her Noonday Collection business. Please check this link <a href="http://www.paigeknudsen.noondaycollection.com/">http://www.paigeknudsen.noondaycollection.com</a>/ to see all the amazing products that are offered by artisans from Guatemala, Ethiopa, Uganda, and many more countries. Sweet Paige has even been blessed to meet some of these amazing people. It's for real! This is what their website has to say about their mission:<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
My other sweet friend <a href="http://kimberlytaylorimages.com/" target="_blank">Kimberly Taylor</a> has an amazing project she is helping come to fruition. She needs all of our help. I am so fortunate to be able to help even with my small donation, it all counts!! She is helping build a village! Yes, a village!! Love these people from Uganda that she, along with help from Dr. Isaac and the Grow Hope Foundation, is helping to learn good hygiene practices, provide a space to learn how to grow amazing produce, educate them and show them how to support themselves and make a safe environment to live and raise their kiddos. Who doesn't want that?! You can all be a part of this amazing project. She has an auction coming up soon where you can bid on some wonderful products that the profits will go towards this much needed project.

We have been packing shoeboxes for about 10 years now helping <a href="http://www.samaritanspurse.org/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/?redir=occ" target="_blank">Operation Christmas Child</a> get gifts to kids needing an uplifting message of Jesus and a surprise Christmas present. It is always so heartwarming to watch videos of these kiddos opening up those boxes from total strangers. They are so happy. Will you take some time and fill a shoe box this season and get it to your local church or pick up place that accepts the Shoe boxes? Check out the link for places in your area. You can donate online and find out where your boxes will go. Ours have went to India and Mexico the last couple of times we were able to find out. So cool!!</div>

So, I finished up tonight on this amazing ReInvention of one of our local hangout's restroom. Sudbeck Service is located in Bow Valley, NE. Stop in for their great specials </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and awesome fish fry on Friday nights.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lisa is a friend of mine and we had fun throughout this process and learned a lot! New flooring was installed, new beadboard paneling, trim, door and a ReInvented sink. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lisa's son Aaron and her husband Danny did the construction part and I designed, painted and decorated.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, without further ado....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are the before and after pics. </div>

Give a girl 6 days, a 50's ranch style outdated kitchen, a limited budget (under $1,000) and a last minute crew (awesome family stepped up to help!) and here's what ya get. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This girl is tired and learned a lot. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is what I came up with for a limited budget and future plans to change out flooring</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and the sliding glass doors, hopefully new cabinets and counter tops</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and updated appliances too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For now this gave my mom and her husband a kitchen</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that can be enjoyed until those future plans take place. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think they liked it! What do you think?</div>

We painted the cabinets a bright white, painted the walls a blue gray shade to match existing blue counter tops. We changed out the cabinet hardware including hinges! Took out the fluorescent lighting and installed a ceiling fan. (that was fun) I designed an island and my crew made it happen! We took an unfinished oak sink base cabinet, framed it in bead board paneling, put a butcher block top on it and some awesome knobs and bam! a new island! Seating for four with the stools and it's a great place for morning coffee or a quick lunch. This really opened up the space and made it very inviting. This kitchen went from dark and dingy to new and bright!</div>

Mission accomplished!</div>

When all of a sudden you get inspired, don't wait! Get up and get movin'! That's what I did last weekend when I was inspired by the Nester's new book, <a href="http://www.thenester.com/landing/the-nesting-place-book" target="_blank">The Nesting Place</a>. I have been living with a blank wall in our family room for 2 years. It was time to do something with it. So, I started shopping the house. Yes, you can do that! You can move furniture and accessories from room to room! I have things stored in totes and I have items in the boys' room that I sorted through and pulled together for this quick wall display. Get your hammer and nails ready and go for it. Don't be scared. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I was going for a cabin in the summer feel. I gathered together old toys and rustic wood frames. I have had that old Oregon Trail map that I found at a yard sale for years and finally pulled a print from a frame and put this in it's place. How easy is that! I also had some old western magazines so I framed one of the covers. I love having a mix of the framed art, canvas art, metal, and mirror all together. Different shapes and textures compliment each other. The bookcases were from different areas in the house and don't match but I think it works with the quirkiness of all the items. I could paint them all to match at some point, but for now I am going with it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, pull up a seat in the rocking chair, watch the kiddos build some forts with the old Lincoln logs and maybe strum a little guitar. Kick back and relax on a rainy day. Take a look:</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are a few tips to help you keep things more relaxed as we enter summer mode.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GhMHWgNIjYo/U49t49gRb0I/AAAAAAAABDU/-WGt6DzBCjg/s1600/bedroom+details.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GhMHWgNIjYo/U49t49gRb0I/AAAAAAAABDU/-WGt6DzBCjg/s1600/bedroom+details.jpg" height="320" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
By only setting a few items out your space will feel calm and relaxing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--l3iUDYzoLQ/U49t5YdABfI/AAAAAAAABDY/vBuFP6Tnq-s/s1600/Patio+decor.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--l3iUDYzoLQ/U49t5YdABfI/AAAAAAAABDY/vBuFP6Tnq-s/s1600/Patio+decor.jpg" height="376" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Need a more masculine feel for your patio or maybe at your cabin? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Put casters on a pallet for a unique table. Add succulents and antlers of course!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then grab a cool one and relax.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-m797_AoZh2M/U49t4-c1FaI/AAAAAAAABDc/WBGNPCRizUI/s1600/Porch+collage+edited.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-m797_AoZh2M/U49t4-c1FaI/AAAAAAAABDc/WBGNPCRizUI/s1600/Porch+collage+edited.jpg" height="320" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Group your pots together and put in a fun container. Add lots of greenery and you've just created your own little piece of paradise on your front porch! Sit back and enjoy a cold glass of lemonade.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's to a fun and relaxing summer!</div>

<br />
As many of you may know, I have been a decorator since I was a teenager! I have worked in many decorating and paint shops along my path that has now brought me to this little village where I now call home with my hubby and 3 kiddos. I have had life happen and kind of steer me away from what I have always wanted to do. I started to think that maybe decorating wasn't supposed to be a part of my life. Little did I know God had bigger plans for me. Plans that are now starting to come to fruition. With a little help from the technology world this mama of 3 if finally putting herself out there and going to start offering my decorating services. I already have a couple of jobs lined up! Dreams are becoming a reality!! I am offering Design Consultations and Decorating Services.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I am finally getting around to decorating the Master Bedroom. We have a small room, dark wood sleigh bed, antique bronze chandelier, tan walls, white trim and white linen curtains. I like the idea of the 3 frames above the headboard. I would love to get these end tables from Target and place the mercury glass lamps with gray/blue shades on either side of the bed. I would also like to find a little dresser and antique it with the white washed look and hang a pretty mirror above, possibly in the gold. I am usually not a lover of gold but this one is sweet and not overpowering. Then we have the linens. Oh French linens how I love thee. I love the beige, cream, gray and blue hues. So relaxing. They are spendy so not sure if I will ever get them, but I will keep searching. Now, off to put this all together and see what I come up with. </span></div>

Christmas part 1 post..yep there's no part 2. After coming home from vacation and finding 3 cats in your house that had fun messing it up, the Christmas decor went away quickly. So, then I think what else am I gonna post. Everyone has such beautiful pics or crafty ideas or resolutions or some big revelation.<br />
<br />
Not me, I am pondering once again what am I here for? I love my blogging friends I have made. The internet has connected me to so many amazing people and I love that. But sometimes it's just one sided. Ya know me commenting on things and never getting anything back but thinking oh we're internet friends! good grief get a grip. I need to get out more and really be with real life friends.<br />
<br />
This world is so full of immediate gratification and making you want more all the time. I have always, since I was in junior high, loved the world of interior design. I loved playing in my aunt and uncle's shop. I always dreamed that one day I would have one of my own. Then real life played out and nope, so far, not happening... So, I am a mama to three wonderful kiddos and have an amazing hubby. I was so lucky to stay at home for 10 years and raise my kiddos. Then worked at my sister's daycare where I could bring the kiddos along after school. Now I work in the school and have my summers off. Still not feeling fulfilled.<br />
<br />
I find myself pulled more to the posts online of the poor, needy, orphans, brave women, people making a difference!!! For example: <a href="http://jenhatmaker.com/" target="_blank">Jen Hatmaker</a> posts that want me to dig more into the Word and seek out what God really has in store for me (and has prompted me to call my nearest homeless shelter and take a meal to the family living there) and all the while cracking me up with her humorous stories of real life. Currently reading her A Modern Girl's Guide to Bible Study. I love <a href="http://flowerpatchfarmgirl.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Shannan Martin's</a> posts about her adopted kiddos and her moving to an area where most people would want to break out of to be able to give themselves and their kiddos a place to make a difference. I love<a href="http://kimberlytaylorimages.com/" target="_blank"> <span id="goog_93289812"></span>Kimberly Taylor</a><span id="goog_93289813"></span> helping out the kiddos in her mama<a href="http://jaajabarbshomeofangels.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"> Barb's Home of Angels</a> in Uganda and the <a href="http://www.thegrowhopefoundation.com/" target="_blank">clean water project</a>. I love <a href="http://paigeknudsen.com/" target="_blank">Paige Knudsen's</a> raw, honest, sweetest posts about her kiddos and her struggles and her triumphs all while keeping it real and lookin' good! ;)<a href="http://www.lifeingraceblog.com/" target="_blank"> Edie</a> has opened my eyes to hospitality and meal planning to make my life easier and not feel like a failure when I get home from work and have nothing to cook, so in goes another pizza... Meal plans are AMAZING! I have loved taking<a href="http://jeanneoliverdesigns.com/" target="_blank"> Jeanne Oliver's</a> courses to help me spark my creative side. To know that it still exists! Now I am taking her <a href="http://jeanneoliver.ning.com/" target="_blank">Create Health Course</a> and can't wait for the changes ahead. I am inspired by <a href="http://keepitsimplekeepitfresh.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Lissa Whitlock</a> whose journey has been amazing and her love for Jesus radiates through her! My first blogging friends <a href="http://mimitoriasdesigns.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Gretchen</a> and <a href="http://www.cottageelements.com/" target="_blank">Lani</a> who I am so lucky to have met in real life!! Their love for God shines through and they are so very creative and make amazing creations. These are just a few of the amazing women I have met through this remarkable world wide web. There are so many more...<br />
<br />
So, then I have to sit and ponder what am I doing that is making a difference? Am I using my full potential to be all that God wants me to be? Is there something more? Is it to come in the future and I am just in the early stages yet? So many questions so little answers. So, I pray and wait and see. I know as we grow, I am gonna be the big 40 this year yikes!!!, our goals change. What do I really want anymore? I have always been drawn to the homeless. I have had an idea for awhile now but I tried to make it happen through my Church and they turned it down. So, then you think well, I guess that wasn't meant to be.. Or was it just not the right timing? We are here for "such a time as this" as the Book of Esther says. This is my time to do something big so people will be blessed. So my kids will live to help others and learn by my example. So that the Light will Shine through me.<br />
<br />
I have loved picking up photography and capturing beautiful scenes and have been blessed to be able to help some amazing family members decorate for their wedding days. I have been blessed to be able to travel, which I pray I can do forever!! I have met amazing people from all walks of life. I feel for those who are from broken homes, who need to be loved, who need a second chance, who need their dignity back. So, I may not be posting decorating pics all the time. The blog is named ReInvented Style but I think it may actually have a new meaning. Sometimes we all need a chance to ReInvent ourselves. To make us a better person. To become who we were always meant to be. Stay tuned for what's to come. A new day is dawning...<br />

Here are a few after shots of the patio makeover. Still have some things to do but it is definitely better than it was. I love the look. It is carefree and relaxing. A perfect spot for a lunch or dinner or drinks with friends. Have a look:<br />

<br />
The lanterns are from<a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10156109/" target="_blank"> Ikea</a> and the silver pots for my herbs. I have some things to add to the walls and I am redoing a chandelier to hang above the table. Metal, crystals and rope!! I have also moved my plants around and added some more so I will have to show you those pics as the summer progresses. I also have the other side of the patio to do. I would like to have a fire pit and am working on having a bar under our kitchen window and adding some stools kinda like this pic:<br />

I am starting on our Backyard Patio. We have a patio under our deck on the East side of the house. My plan it to put a table and chairs down there and make it feel intimate and relaxing. These are some of my inspiration pics:<br />
<img height="640" src="http://media-cache-ec3.pinimg.com/736x/23/cb/e6/23cbe643cea7313173e0e2d564bc2704.jpg" width="448" /><br />
<br />
I love the white painted table.<br />

<br />
I love the white curtains and the lanterns with candles. I also love the whiskey barrels and touches of wood accents with the greenery and white.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I love the greenery! I would like them in galvanized and black pots though.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, I painted our old dining table white and the chairs gray.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I also bought white curtains from <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90111980/?query=LILL+Sheer+curtains%2C+1+pair" target="_blank">Ikea </a>for $4.99 a pair to hang! Score!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I also have ferns in black pots and white impatients and geraniums ready to go in galvanized pots and I think I will put some lavender in my old galvanized wash tubs! I am so excited to put everything together. I just need to get the deck stained and then I can transform this ugly space into my relaxing patio. Stay tuned...</div>

Hmmm, I wonder if it's because I am so busy with everyday life that I just can't seem to get in gear and take some pics. We have had some crazy "Spring" weather around here so I was finally able to get some pics taken. It is like winter here in Northeast Nebraska so we have been inside quite a bit. I am so ready to get out in the garden and warm sun but I guess that will just have to wait. So, here is what I have so far of the basement bath. The kids bath pretty much.<br />
We had builder Steve make us an amazing vanity. I purchased a Kraus sink, thanks to <a href="http://brookegiannetti.typepad.com/velvet_and_linen/bathrooms/page/2/" target="_blank">Velvet & Linen's post</a> on her kids' sinks, and a Kraus faucet on Overstock.com and we love it. We have a burlap curtain for our linen closet door. Builder Steve also custom made the bathroom door. It came out perfect. I put together some initial hooks for the kids towels and we pretty much wrapped that space up.<br />
Next time kids' room reveal... Stay tuned...<br />

<br />
Also, a sneak peak of our custom made bar stools by none other than the hubby and his brother. They did a great job. Rustic antique tractor seats are lookin' good. Not sure if we'll paint them or just clear coat them. What are your thoughts...<br />

We have carpet in, lights installed, shelving up and new furniture. Still waiting on a few pieces though so I can't say we are done. This is all a process folks! We still have to decorate and let me tell you while that is the fun part for me it is also one that takes some time. I want just the right pieces to be in those rooms to really show it off. I want certain things to say, that is so them. To fit right in like it was always meant for that space. To make it feel like home. Now add a hubby who has his own ideas and you can where this could take awhile longer than anticipated ya'll! But here is a little more of what we have accomplished. And I still have to give much of the credit to our amazing carpenter. The pictures don't do his work justice people.<br />

Our basement is coming along. Slowly but surely! What do ya do when we've had such a nice winter and your carpenter also pours concrete for a living!! He's here now and putting together all of our custom pieces. We are using reclaimed barnwood for our trim, doors, bathroom vanity, boys' beds and a bar! Yes, that means lots of time spent on these projects. I am just so glad our carpenter gets me and my crazy ideas and that he is willing to think outside the box and make some amazing things happen. He's really good at it too. He might be cussing me sometimes cause of what he has to do but I think he secretly enjoys seeing these creations come to life! wink wink. So, I am going to show you a few sneak peaks cause it's not finished yet and it's quite a mess down there but it's so exciting!!! So, here you go:<br />

It's getting me more into the Christmas spirit seeing the fields in white. Also a little glimpse of our Christmas decor in the house. The basement is slowly moving along. I guess it will be January before that's done so will show pics later of that....<br />
