Today please enjoy touring the beautiful home of Pam from Simple Details.
We are so happy to have her here today! You know how fun it is when you discover a new blog and pour over it, loving each room more? That is how I felt when I found Pam’s blog not too long ago. She has great style and top-notch decor projects–just her foyer alone had us at “hello!”.
Enjoy!

Hey everyone, I’m Pam from Simple Details and thrilled to be part of the Spring Home Tour today. Our little 1938 home has been a huge labor of love, it was dreadful when we bought it, yet love at first sight for a designer and DIY addict! That would be me, Mr. Simple sees no fun in any of that, but he does like working in our yard, and gets the credit for planting all of these tulips in the exact spots I suggested! 🙂
I cheated with the photo above, it’s from last year, we have another week before
the tulips will be in bloom. Reality is we’re getting another beautiful spring
I just finished giving our entry a makeover last month and added some pizazz with
this stencil and sunburst ceiling light. They’re both knock offs of pricey designer
looks, one of my favorite things to DIY.
A neutral background is perfect for me, as I tend to change thing up on a whim.
I jumped on the radiant orchid trend and made some bright pillows for spring.
Pillows are one of my go-to accessories to change up with seasons.
The pom-poms and Greek key trims were easy details for a custom look.
This french settee is a new addition on the opposite side of the room,
thank you Craigslist!
I reupholstered it in my favorite neutral, black and white stripes, and added
the floral watercolor pillow.
Surprisingly, our dining room hasn’t seen many changes since I brought in the
dresser turned buffet. It was a free find on the sidewalk, with a little paint and Ikea
pulls turned sideways it’s one of my most loved pieces in our home.
Our kitchen was remodeled eight years ago and most recently looked like this, and you can check out the scary sight when we first moved in here.
BUT, it’s currently undergoing a transformation to give it a fresh modern look, and I’ve been hard at work painting the cabinets and a surprise top for the island is being installed tomorrow. Yay!!! You can follow along with the One Room Challenge progress each Wednesday and in a few short weeks I’ll have a fresh new look!
painting our fixtures and shower surround, and a ceiling light.
I like changing out the artwork for spring and summer, I bring in a flamingo print
and an abstract in pinks and blues.
Our poor bedroom was so sad for years, it finally got a major refresh last fall.
I set out to make the 13 x 11 room feel larger and more luxurious, the
bedroom update included a long list of DIYs, including this Craigslist headboard,
that was originally red and gold…yikes!
My opinionated son and I had so much fun working on his room together. At the beginning
I wasn’t sure if our tastes would successfully merge, think reclining sectional with cup
holders and a TV. Ha! 🙂 But it came together and we both love it.
Didn’t you LOVE her home? We knew you would! Be sure to check out her blog at www.simpledetails.com, I can’t wait to see what her kitchen looks like when she is done! Thanks, Pam!

I love how interesting and chic Pam’s home is…….it’s one of my favorites! The neutral backdrop is so great for changing up accessories over the course of the year. How amazing does that Radiant Orchid color look in the living room – I didn’t think I was a fan until I saw that!
