Our Loft Refresh with Avalon Shutters
This is a sponsored post for Avalon Shutters. However, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
I can’t believe it’s November!! Time is literally flying by! We’ve been busy traveling, dealing with medical appointments and Halloween. However, in between that, we managed to do our loft refresh with Avalon Shutters (also called the kids hang-out room haha). Again, we worked with our go-to shutters company, Avalon Shutters. Take a look at some before and afters of our space and see how we turned this boring blank space into a fun kids gaming area complete with a retro refrigerator and more!
About Avalon Shutter
Since 1986, Avalon Shutters has been committed to true American craftsmanship. The Avalon journey started when Bob Marcynyszyn and Doug Serbin, both master carpenters, began their business out of a two car garage in Redlands, Ca. Now, the largest custom shutter manufacturer on the West Coast, Avalon Shutters produces their quality shutters in a 150,000 square foot facility. Avalon carefully selects the highest quality U.S. wood suppliers to ensure their support of the need for increasing tree growth. Avalon also participates in Green Manufacturing, minimizing their carbon footprint in Southern California and the planet.
Today, Avalon operates as the West Coast’s #1 Custom Shutter Manufacturer, serving all of the West Coast, including parts of California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, and Idaho.
Prior to our loft refresh, we purchased Avalon shutters for ALL our downstairs windows as well as our master bedroom. We also worked with Avalon Shutters on our closet and bathroom remodel! Conveniently, if you need financing, orders can be made through Home Depot! Originally, I installed cheap white blinds over our two loft windows and it didn’t really elevate the space the way I wanted them to. The shutters were the perfect addition to our windows above our stairwell and desk and I LOVE the amount of natural light that comes through. You can get more details on all that they install, HERE.

I’ve linked the majority of the items below! The couch was from the World Market Outlet, so I wasn’t able to link it, however, I have added one similar. Neil and I DIY’ed that board and batten wall as well as made and installed the shiplap and floating shelves ourselves. We replaced the carpet with luxury vinyl pl
Thank you Avalon Shutters for taking our window game to the next level and completing the look of this space! The quality is unmatched and they make ordering and installing so easy and quick! Our shutters in our living room and kitchen look just as new and it’s been 5 years so far. If you are on the fence about whether you should take the leap and order these, I’m telling you it’s SO WORTH IT!

This past weekend it snowed here in the foothills and now today it’s going to be 80…. Today will be spent gardening. I’ve noticed that when I’m in the yard planting flowers in my flower box and spend time out there, it really makes me happy and relaxes me. What’s something you do that makes you happy?
SAVE AND SHARE THIS TIP! Want your fresh #hydrangeas to last longer? I have the perfect tip for you! You can repeat this tip multiple times on the same bouquet to get maximum use out of your fresh blooms! Simply, cut a small portion off the bottom of the stem, dip in ALUM (found in the spice section of the grocery store) and stick in cold water. I promise you, this trick works. If you are a hydrangea nut like me, and hate spending so much on flowers, then try this out and let me know! #hydrangea #homehack #hydrangealove

•corned beef (or you can use pastrami)
•Dijon mustard
•Swiss cheese

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Use your cookie cutter on the puff pastry. Add Dijon mustard, corned beef and Swiss cheese to half the clovers. Put the remaining puff pastry on top. Use a fork to put down the sides and seal the puff pastry. Then, brush egg wash over them. These will bake for approximately 20 min. Trust me…..these are super easy to make and soooo yummy! #puffpastry
