Meet the Heards
Meredith and Stephen. Most days we can be found at our 1980s rancher in Fayetteville, Arkansas - painting, building, and decorating inside or throwing a tennis ball for our dog Molly outside. We always have a project up our sleeves, and we love sharing renovation tips and tricks on our way to big Before & Afters. We're all about inspiring others to tackle DIY projects because being proud of where you live starts with saying "I did that myself!"
Welcome to Heardmont - we're so happy you're here!

Happy Holidays Chalkboard
Morning everybody! We’re in the middle of our first snowfall of the year here in Northwest Arkansas, and I’m loving it! Right now about half of the grass in our yard is covered and the snow’s still slowly coming down. … Continue reading
Christmas Tree in Peacock Hues
It happens every year. I always show y’all our “finished Christmas tree” and then less than two days (or even hours) later I decide it needs a little tweaking. In 2009, we called our tree “done” and then proceeded to … Continue reading

Printer Station Spruce-Up
I was contemplating the art in our dining room and living room the other day when I had an epiphany (dramatic, I know). You probably remember this wall of our dining room looking like it does below, but in reality … Continue reading

World Travel Map: Take 2
Remember that cork board map we made for our dining room? The one we stuck with pins to mark places Stephen and I have traveled together? Well I’ve been fiddling in the dining room lately and recently decided to re-hang … Continue reading
