How to Remove Wallpaper from Plaster Walls

mirandaschro| Home

We bought our dream home and it’s COVERED in wallpaper. Bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms, hallways. You name it. It’s wallpapered. I had removed wallpaper in the past and remembered it being horrible, but not this horrible.

Affordable Wedding Dresses Under $250.00

mirandaschro| Home

Affordable wedding dresses DO exist, and I am going to share with you my secret, Lulus Bridal. I ordered a dress for our courthouse wedding from Lulus for $80.00 and was so impressed. It was super comfortable and fit like a glove! After wearing this dress, I was kicking myself for spending thousands on the gown for our destination wedding.

My Unconventional Goals for 2021

mirandaschro| Life+ Lifestyle

This post contains affiliate links. Thanks for supporting my creativity! Every December I sit down and write an elaborate “plan” for the upcoming year full of hopes, wishes and goals I would like to accomplish. I have the notebooks from the last three years, and when I look back at my entries, not much has changed. This year is different. Not because of the pandemic. Not because I’m becoming a mom. But because I have a new perspective and view on life, love and work. It seems that 2020 taught me to let go a bit. Live more in the…

My First Trimester: A Quick Bumpdate

mirandaschro| Family+ Home

I can’t believe my first trimester is coming to a close. I feel SO blessed that this pregnancy has been smooth sailing. I know many women aren’t so lucky. I’ve heard good things about the second trimester, so it’s time to get to work preparing for baby!

The Day I Found Out I was Pregnant & How I Told my Husband

mirandaschro| Family+ Life+ Love+Life+ Marriage

I can’t believe we are already waving goodbye to the first trimester! It feels like a lifetime go and just yesterday that we found out we were pregnant all at once. We have had A LOT going on over the past three months.

Holiday Gift Guide for Him

mirandaschro| Lifestyle+ Seasonal & Holiday

Is it just me– or are men hard to shop for? If you find yourself in the same last-minute-shopper boat, I’ve put together a few gift guides to help you find the perfect gift for the gents in your life: from the gym buff to the tech nut and every guy in between

Buying a House: 3 Up-front Costs I Almost Forgot About

mirandaschro| Home

After buying 4 houses in the past 7 years, I still forget the up-front hidden costs involved. Most people know they have to save for a down payment, but surprise, there are many other things you have to pay for before you even get to closing!

We are Having a Baby! Little Schroeder Due June 2021

mirandaschro| Family+ Love+Life+ Marriage

Surprise! We are having a baby! Little Schroeder is due June 2021, and we couldn’t be more excited for baby’s arrival. We have no idea if we are having a boy or girl yet, but the blood work is with the lab!

Bathroom Updates with Pfister Faucets

mirandaschro| Home

I gave our bathroom a bright, boho refresh a few months ago, but I’ve added a few more small touches since, one of those being these matte black faucets from Pfister Faucets.

An Affordable and Functional Master Closet

Abigail Hobbs| Home+ Makeovers

Sometimes I meticulously plan our renovations. And sometimes life just throws a re-design into my path. Or in the case of our master bedroom closet… life knocks the rails off the wall, dramatically collapses everything, and forces me to take stock.

Holiday Gift Guides for Her

mirandaschro| Lifestyle+ Seasonal & Holiday

It’s so easy to let life take over and lose track of the approaching holidays. I decided to put together four holiday gift guides for busy millennial women to take the stress out of Christmas shopping

An Autumn Birthday Brunch

Abigail Hobbs| Entertaining+ Home+ Seasonal & Holiday

October is the perfect month for outdoor hosting. The weather is beautiful — not too hot and not too cold. Fall foliage creates the perfect backdrop. Plus, social distancing can easily be maintained outside in the fresh air.

This year, I partnered with World Market to create a Halloween drink. Thankfully, we don’t have to ward off any ghosts. Instead, we’re welcoming the holiday spirit of fun and mischief with a Halloween-themed bar cart!

My Unconventional Goals for 2021

You guys said you would be up for some progress sh You guys said you would be up for some progress shots, so here we go! A little corner of our room that might not look like much, but man, a lot of work went into getting it here 🥰 #historichomes #renovation #bedroominspo
Throwback to one of our previous kitchens (that I Throwback to one of our previous kitchens (that I completely transformed with $500.00) because it is a constant reminder that you can make your home your own without spending thousands of dollars! 💸⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I've been sharing all the BTS of current house projects in my stories. We are definitely hiring things out here and there this time, but still sticking to a tight budget.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
There ARE maybe 1.5 rooms worth posting on Instagram (In my opinion). Half wallpapered walls and green carpeted floors don't really seem all that appealing to me 😂⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So tell me what you do/don't want to see on the feed! Photos of our previous homes? Progress shots? My face? Andrew's face? Our dogs? 😆 Idk. You tell me!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Even though progress feels slow, we have major things happening in the next few weeks!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Next week, ceilings and walls are getting smoothed, patched and prepped for paint. Once they are done, I'm breaking out my paintbrush before our downstairs floors get refinished the week of the 25th.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I AM SO EXCITED to see this come together 🥳 I'm ready to shop for furniture/art and to decorate.⁠⠀

⁠⠀
This year is different. Not because of the pandemic. Not because I’m becoming a mom. But because I have a new perspective and view on life, love and work.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It seems that 2020 taught me to let go a bit. Live in the moment. Less stress. Less pressure. More LIFE.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
There is so much media out there pushing us to be more, do more, say more, spend more etc. I am OVER this hustle culture. I know what I am capable of, but what if I don’t WANT to grow a huge business and quit my corporate career?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I feel like I’ve been fed a narrative, and I’m just now waking up to my personal truth, finding my own groove, and understanding what works for me and my lifestyle. And more importantly, what doesn’t!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Head to the blog to read my 3 unconventional and somewhat vague (Isn't that a crime in goal setting?) goals for the new year #linkinbio⁠⠀
⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Heading back to work after the holidays is rough 🤪⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I miss having all day to destroy and reassemble my house. We "finished" the bedroom last night & I could cry happy tears. By finishing, I mean we have this left to do 😂⁠⠀
⁠⠀
➖ Replace outlets/light switches + covers⁠⠀
➖ Install quarter round trim + paint it⁠⠀
➖ Re-hang main door⁠⠀
➖ Paint windows⁠⠀
➖ Figure out closet door situation⁠⠀
➖ Buy lamps ⁠⠀
➖ Buy curtain rods + curtains + hang⁠⠀
➖ Buy a light-fixture⁠⠀
➖ DIY + Hang art!⁠⠀
➖ Have electrician out for overhead light⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Meanwhile, we still haven't closed on our last house, so here is a photo to remind ourselves that we still own this place down the road 😅⁠⠀

Going into 2020, we had no idea where Andrew’s f Going into 2020, we had no idea where Andrew’s fellowship was going to take us. In January, he matched at IU & we were so excited to move “home.” Amidst the pandemic, we lived in FOUR different houses. We both changed jobs & now we have a baby on the way! A tough, but rewarding year that I honestly wouldn’t change 🖤 Going into 2021, I am so hopeful for all the good that is to come. I can’t wait to make our new house a home & to meet our baby girl! 🥰
HOLY COW. My entire body hurts but this room has c HOLY COW. My entire body hurts but this room has completely transformed in just a week! It’s been a labor of love. I finished painting tonight & we pulled the carpet... the floors are STUNNING & in perfect condition 😭🤩 The perfect reward after all of the hard work that went into removing the wallpaper/glue, restoring the plaster & painting! There is no overhead light in this room (yet) so I’ll have to share more tomorrow.
