I haven’t kept these pictures from you on purpose I promise! The truth is, I was painting and painting and painting on the day of the reveal last Sunday and I didn’t get very many pictures! In fact about ten minutes before the homeowner arrived, I was drying the table with a hair dryer! Painting in the humidity was MUCH different than painting at home in the desert. I smell a tutorial coming up soon.
I love that I’m holding a diet coke in the picture to the left. It’s very fitting for the situation. I was running on 2 hours of sleep.
I’ve been gathering pictures from my fellow bloggers’ sites. I snapped most of the pictures of the room I decorated, but the rest are borrowed from other blogs.
Plus I wanted to show you the entire experience, so I made this fun vlog to show you the fun!
Mismatched chairs?!? ME!?! I’m sure you aren’t surprised!
Donna from Funky Junk decorated the master bedroom with her amazing style. I love her door turned headboard. Alexia already has a mattress, so you will have to imagine it in the room. 🙂I loved her chalkboard dresser drawers and her amazing taste shines through. I loved every single part of her room. Lindsay from Better After was my partner in crime and decorated Jaydon’s room. It is absolutely DARLING! Lindsay is awesome folks. She knows a lot about me after being in the same vehicle for days and days. I loved every minute of our talks.She was very thoughtful in all of the choices she made for Jaydon. I loved his chalk board wall. Traci from Beneath my Heart decorated Jurnei’s girly princess room. Her mantle turned headboard is sooo cute! Lindsay found it, and I was sooo excited, I yelled at her from across the parking lot, “TRACI…COME HERE…HURRY!!” Ha ha.Leen the Graphics Queen donated the adorable vinyl throughout the house.
Cy {Traci‘s Hubby} decorated the bathrooms and did a great job! I loved the faucets turned towel holders! Honestly, this experience was incredible. I’m not just saying that either. We carefully chose the items for Alexia and her family. It was so much fun to create a home that we thought she would like. We worked hard. I worked faster than I think I ever have in my entire life. But, it all came together and the looks on their faces were absolutely priceless.
Getting back to real life has been hard too. I miss my friends!

This is not a sponsored post. I was not compensated for this trip nor was I required to write anything about this trip. I share my experience with you because it truly was amazing. GMC and On Star sponsored our travel expenses only. All opinions are 100% mine.
Wow. Everyone did an amazing job and for such a great cause. It is inspiring and heartwarming. I teared up a little reading about the backpacks.
This was SUCH an amazing undertaking! The house looks beautiful, and it looks like you had a grand time doing it. Way to go!
Brooke! What an amazing FUN opportunity! I'm SO jealous! You guys did a fantastic job. 🙂
We should talk soon!

I wasn't even there and I'm all teared up! You guys rock hardcore, and I think you all did an amazing job! I don't know how it goes everywhere, but the HFH houses here are built with the help of the family. I can only imagine how happy they were to have the house decorated to showcase their hard work. 🙂
You rocked it Brooke! What an amazing experience! Thanks for sharing all of the ideas!!
Happy Weekend!
