Hello everyone! If this is your first time visiting Finding Silver Linings, my name is Mindy, welcome to my home.
This is the quiet street we live on. Spring has just begun to bloom around here!
This is where we live.
My husband and I moved into this house seven months ago. It is very much a work in progress, and it literally changes every day.
Come on in!
This is our dog Rocco, he’ll be your tour guide 😉
Front Hallway Area
This table gets changed around all the time because it’s nice to shake things up a bit – especially when you walk through the front door. Here is today’s configuration, lol!
Let’s go down the hall first.
Our first stop is to our right. This is our main bathroom.
My favorite mirror in the house is in this room. Sparkly mosaic anything rocks my socks people, I aint hard to please!
Next, let’s peek into the guest bedroom. Pardon the lack of detail in this room, it is one of the last rooms to finish for us.
Next up, the master bedroom.
Now, let’s look at the master bath
This is our office.
This desk and chair were my little “makeover projects”. Read how to make your own here and here.
Let’s go back down the hall and into the heart of our home.
The kitchen! Learn how to paint a chalkboard wall like this one right here.
Here’s an embarrassing picture of us a few weeks ago on Easter! LOL! I have no shame, people!
That was my attempt at Spring-y haha! My home-made artwork is my motto for the kitchen!
This is where we eat dinner every night
And we eat in our dining room if we have guests over or if we’re feelin fancy 😉 Yes, I changed the furniture around in the middle of our little house tour 😀
Now, let’s go downstairs…
This is our mancave livingroom…
This is our downstairs bathroom
That’s it! Thank you for joining us on our little tour 🙂 Rocco will see you out.
Please click the button below to move on to the next home in the parade over at Final Clothes Out!
Thanks again for coming!

Your house is so cute! It’s fun to see the whole thing and different angles! I kind of want to steal Rocco. 😛

Thank you for the fun tour of your home! The headboard in the Master bedroom really caught my eye- so pretty!
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
I love the luxe feel of a tufted headboard, plus it’s comfy if you like to read in bed at night like me!

Mindy, I am loving these sixties and seventies split-levels more and more. You are doing a fantastic job decorating your home. And Rocco is a rock star!!! Thanks so much for allowing us to tour your adorable home. 😀
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
It’s 80’s but what the heck is the difference, lol?! They all look the same!! It’s definitely more home than we though we could afford as our first place, so we are really happy with it. Thanks for looking!

Paige says
Came through on the parade of homes, and all I have to say is: BLUE DESK!
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Hi Paige I can’t wait to peep your house too!
simplyshaka says
Hey, I have the same apron! With a T of course but I just posted a pic of it–too funny. I love the ears.
I am so in love with the blue color of the desk and sign above it…..and in love with Rocco of course. Absolutely adorable! I want to live in your house 🙂
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
You are a traveler! Come couch surf @ casa FSL!! We’re pretty good hosts from what I’ve heard, hahah! But I can’t promise an empty bed…Rocco likes to sleep with guests!

Hollie @ Lolzthatswim(andRun) says
I.Want.That.Desk. So badly-ever since you painted it, I have fallen in love. Your house is so gorgeous.
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Thank you Hollie! If I see another one on craigslist, I swear I’m making you one! LOL
Rufus' Food and Spirits Guide says
I like how open the layout is, how you have hardwood or laminate even in the basement (great with a dog) and how clutter free everything is. Great house and dog. Go Rocco!
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Yeah, the hardwood throughout (except the bathrooms) was the first thing when we closed after we ripped up the old floor & painted the walls. It’s so much more sleek than the carpet that was there before us. Thanks Rufus!

Jen @ The Decor Scene says
We have the same type of house, but layed out a little differently. I like how yours in layed out. Love what you have done with your home so far. I’m stopping in from A Bowl Full of Lemons house parade.
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
It’s tough to make a house uniique in any way when it’s a raised ranch, ya know? Thanks for coming over!

Tien says
This is the first time I saw pictures of your home in one single post. And its beautiful! I especially like the exterior design – the steps laeding to your frint door and the cute inverted-V above it 🙂 And, I love the wooden flooring too. You did a great job for the deco as well! Rocco is so cute, give him a little hig and kiss from me will ‘ya? 🙂
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Thanks Tien! Rocco appreciates the extra snuggles 😉
pawsitivelife says
Your house is beautiful and very nicely done, I really like that you dont have the clutter that is all over my tiny apartment!

It’s tough because I am a pack rat!! LOL! Clutter gives me anxiety!
