Not to mention the super cute yellow refrigerator! Photo by Davenport…

When I think of Joanna Gaines’ decorating style, I’m always reminded of a black and white palette. She tends to use the combination more so than other designers, in a farmhouse kind of way.

When I was first married and raising my family, I made do with the resources I had. Since I was a stay-at-home mom, I had to be creative since we only had one income. So when we moved into our first house, I sewed all the curtains myself. The easiest curtains to make were café…
