Tomorrow is the big day! Our meet up at the Sleep Number store in Idaho Falls, Idaho from 1-3pm. We’re so excited to meet you, take pics, chat and munch on refreshments. I’m bringing my paint decks and we’ll also be dishing out the design advice freely–so if you have specific questions, bring photos of your space. Hope to see you there!
More fun things this week!
• We’re hosting a really great giveaway with 31 bits over on our Instagram. Enter here.
• How to roast the perfect Turkey (Chris nails it every year). Plus! His Cornbread stuffing.Â
• How to cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner in one oven.Â
• I’ve been really struggling to get back into consistently working out after having Polly, I’m just so tired! But, there’s no motivation like new tennis shoes, right? These are at the top of my list.
• I love this clean, modern “Give Thanks” banner–perfect for Thanksgiving. It’s a free printable here!
• My goal this year is to get all my shopping done really early so that I can take my time wrapping the gifts (and not be up all night on Christmas Eve)–one of my favorite things! I just picked up 2 rolls of this pretty ticking stripe ribbon (in red and black!) and I can’t wait to use it.
• We’ll be launching the rest of our gift guides next week! We got a ton of wonderful feedback from our White Elephant gift guide, including who you need help shopping for. We’re on it!
• Literally, my favorite thing (and ironically least favorite–haha) from this entire week via @debrosse_nyc! It’s like this huge, horrible joke that we’re all in on and victims of at the same time.
• I’ve been struggling whether to go light or dark in the cabin bedroom we’re trying to tackle before the holidays, but I think this picture just sealed the deal for me.
• I just shared my favorite finds (serious, serious steals here!) from the Premiere Day sale on my Instagram stories! The sale only lasts for 24 hours. I linked them all below. Click the arrows to navigate–the pillow inserts are going fast!
Hey Chris and Julia! On your podcast a while back I think you talked about a docking station you have for your Apple Watch that you liked. I couldn’t find it again. Do you have that info still? Congrats on your new cabin, dig and baby. 2017 was good to you.

We still BOTH use it and love it.
Turkey question: I already bought my turkey frozen before I read your post. So I can’t brine it? Any ideas for how to still make it amazing? Will it work for me to follow the roasting instructions still? Thanks!
You can totally brine it – I would get your turkey thawed today, then you can brine it starting tomorrow morning. If you put the turkey into a bucket and then place it in a tub with cold water slowly dripping on it (like, just a trickle at most) then you can thaw a 20lb bird out in about 12 hours. Smaller turkeys only take about 8 hours or so.
Most of these deals are gone :) and on some that still exist rejuvenation changed the price. I wonder if it was a glitch and you just got lucky with catching it early? Either way thanks for the heads and up and please keep the deals coming!!!
A lot of times, once stock is low or gone, they’ll change the price. It was also just for 24 hours. I knew they’d go fast!
There’s an iphone update for that issue. just in case anyone wasnt aware. Update! it’s been out a week or two now…
I’m excited for the rest of your gift guides! I struggle with presents for the men in my life. Nearly all dad/husband gift guides are so stereotypically masculine–my city-dwelling gents have no use for an axe, buy their own tech, and for god’s sake do not need a watch!
