Redoing this bathroom wasn’t high on our priorit

Redoing this bathroom wasn’t high on our priority list when we moved in last year, but we got around to it a year later! Like most projects, the half bath transformation took a little longer than expected (thanks to a lot of wall repair from moving the wainscoting down) but I’m so happy with how it turned out!
{swipe ➡️ for the before}

Choosing a smaller vanity and smaller toilet makes this space feel bigger & I just absolutely love the tile floor.

And, can you believe this gorgeous gold faucet is from Amazon?!

I’m still looking for some art for one of the walls- a Gray Malin piece perhaps?- but taking all suggestions if you have any!

Any projects on your list today? We’re finishing up our half bath renovation and so happy with how it is turning out!

What’s up next? We’re looking to replace the ceiling fans in the bedrooms like this one in our primary bedroom.

We’re also looking to replace the carpet in the living room and upstairs. I’d highly recommend doing that *before* moving in, but when we moved this time last year, most stores were closed and lead times were cRaZY. 🤪

Time to C E L E B R A T E!
8 weeks and 6 rounds of interviews later, I got the JOB! 🙌🏼🍾 A huge thank you to @dechanceny for sending this gorgeous champs package all the way from the Loire Valley in France! After all, champagne is always a good idea. #gifted

I’m so excited to be continuing my medical sales career, now specializing in diagnostic and molecular testing for all ages and stages of women’s health. My territory is local, which is a huge blessing for my family as I previously covered MI/OH/PA. I can’t wait to get started and get to know all the OBGYN’s in West Michigan!

Sometimes for the perfect Spring oversized sweater

Sometimes for the perfect Spring oversized sweater, you gotta mosey on over to the men’s section. I’m wearing a men’s Medium in this J Crew striped sweater and loving it as a spring style staple with white pants, denim shorts, and ripped jeans. #jcrew http://liketk.it/3ckjM #liketkit @liketoknow.it #jcrewstyle #stripedsweater #springsweater #oversizedsweater #LTKSpringSale #LTKsalealert #LTKunder50

What are your family’s Easter traditions? Last

What are your family’s Easter traditions?
Last year we had just moved in & decided to cater it for our little fam since we weren’t gathering with extended family. It was so good (and easy on me!), we’re doing it again this year. I must admit, it’s quite nice not spending hours cooking when the boys last about 7 minutes at the table. 🤣

Now I can pour my energy into creating fun Easter baskets, setting the table in our dining room, and hiding eggs in the yard (which just got leveled out this week!)

Thanks to our collective BFF 🤍 @homegoods for s

Thanks to our collective BFF 🤍 @homegoods for sharing my patio yesterday, there are a lot of new faces here! Welcome and Thank You so much for the follow! I’d love to know- what state are you from??

I’m Dana and I’m the blogger behind www.thehouseofnavy.com where I share coastal modern home decor, preppy-ish fashion, travel guides, and all things motherhood as I raise two boys, Leo and Warren, in the Midwest. (Hi from ✋🏻America’s high five, Michigan!)

1. If you’re here for the Home Goods patio set, it’s a 7pc teak Martha Stewart outdoor dining set and the item number is 16-003132. I’ll continue looking online and will be sure to post in stories if I come across it! (Same with the kids patio set that looks just like Serena & Lily!)

2. I love to share daily finds in stories from TJ Maxx including brands like Veronica Beard, Ramy Brook, Theory, Tory Burch, Splendid, Rebecca Taylor, Joie, as well as awesome home decor at great prices.

3. Were working on several home projects right now, including renovating the half bath, leveling out the backyard, and adding some DIY built ins for our family room on either side of the fireplace. I can’t wait to share more as we make some progress!

Should we stay or should we go?
We’ve been wondering whether it’s time to build an addition on our home or if it’s time to list. If you’ve been around here long, you know we love to move! 😂 however, we love our neighborhood and neighbors and backyard, but just seem to need a little more space.

This blue & white gingham dress from @duffieldlane is perfect for Easter and especially great now that these spring temps are so great! Tagging it along with a few other Easter dresses and our patio decor we’ve got back out for the spring & summer. http://liketk.it/3bgQd #liketkit @liketoknow.it #easter #easterdress #easterbasket #LTKstyletip #LTKSpringSale

“Spring Forward” Daylight Saving Time brunch i

“Spring Forward” Daylight Saving Time brunch inspiration for tomorrow!

Y’all know I live for a good charcuterie board & I’m having so much fun trying my hand at other boards like this pancake breakfast.
*new hobby alert*
What other boards should I try??

Here’s a few things I put on my list for every Daylight Savings
(some good things to check every 6 months)
-test batteries in smoke detectors & carbon monoxide
-replace rubber squirt bath toys (a favorite spot for mold to hang out)
-flip mattress
-review fire exit plan in the house
-change ceiling fan direction to summer
-throw away Halloween candy 😂🥴
