My At-Home Workout Routine
Now that we have our home gym in place, I get a lot of questions about what my at home workout looks like. Probably because I've been very transparent about the gym being an essential part of my morning routine. I’ve been doing this for years and, honestly sometimes it’s the only time I leave […]

Elevate Your Every Day: Kitchen
In the past I've done a few posts called "Good Looking Ugly Stuff" because your toilet brushes and cleaning tools shouldn't have to be ugly. I'm the kind of person who is genuinely happier when every thing in our home, down to the dish rag, is in harmony with one another aesthetically. It might sound […]

Not only is the Charly available in a variety of chairs, sofas and sectionals but you can also customize the fill and dimensions so that your piece is uniquely yours. But of course the most fun thing […]

The Ultimate, All-Inclusive Grill Guide
What is it they say? The best time to start grilling was 10 years ago but the second best time to start is today? I don't actually know if anybody says that, but I stand by it. Grilling can seem intimidating if you don't know where to start, but the only requisite to joining grill […]

Inspiration for the Outdoor Shower
We were not planning on doing an outdoor shower until our contractor asked if there's going to be a shower in the pool bathroom. There's only going to be enough room for either a stacked washer and dryer, or a shower, but not both. Lately we've been leaning more and more towards washer and dryer […]

Fire Roasted Salsa | Chris Cooks
Salsa has been tricky for me, which sounds silly. I've made several versions, and historically the best ones I've made have used canned tomatoes. As someone who is trying to move to "fresh" as much as I can, that's been frustrating. But it makes sense, because canned tomatoes usually contain additional things that make the […]

This post is sponsored by Lowe's. Every once in awhile, we go on a field trip to one of our team members' homes and do a one-day room refresh. Yesterday, we picked out all our favorite outdoor living pieces from Lowe's and bypassed our yard in the middle of renovating and headed over to Brooke […]

The Best of May
By far, the most monumental month this year has come to a close. We walked along sandy beaches in St. Lucia with our team, walked all over our new floor pops collection (restock coming soon I promise), and walked right into our Rubbermaid launch. You guys sold us out on Amazon so fast, but keep […]

Introducing: Chris Loves Julia X Rubbermaid
I remember when Chris and I were newlyweds, blissfully figuring out our new life together, we were gifted these Rubbermaid food storage containers with red lids. Those EasyFindLids red lidded containers have been a constant after all these years, and I'd bet they've made their way into many of your homes, as well. So when […]

The Upstairs Bathroom Mood Board
I've been calling this Greta's bathroom, but it's not solely her bathroom really. Yes it's the one across from her room and she uses it the most, but it's also the main bathroom we use whenever we're hanging out upstairs (which is frequent). Therefore, I wanted it to feel feminine, but also classic and clean […]

Let me introduce to you a recipe that you'll make over and over gain. This pan-fried pancetta gnocchi is an evergreen meal that Julia and the girls request frequently! Of course I happily oblige because it's just that good. This recipe is very allergy friendly (we opt for gluten-free gnocchi), but I promise there's no […]

After reviewing and ranking duvet inserts and pillow inserts you all spoke up and asked that we test some bed pillows! Here's the thing though, everybody has different pillow preferences when it comes to sleep so it's hard to rank. BUT, we couldn't let you down so we ordered a bunch of highly rated bed […]

Slow Decorating in Our Bedroom
Since painting our bedroom dark brown, we've been taking our time in here. If I'm being honest, I've been in a bit of a creative lull. Which is a scary place to be as a content creator. Just like writers get writer's block, I think every creative gets creative block and I've been trying to […]

I've been shopping my house to outfit the entry since we moved here. At one point the media console was placed in the hallway which was great for storage but it felt so heavy. I've had several things in the little stair nook, including a vintage table around Christmas time and most recently, this pedestal. […]

I'm normally not a shorts person. I like to stay warm at all times and I naturally run cold! That being said, the weather in North Carolina is actually begging me to show a bit more skins, so here I am in denim shorts. Also, I kind of love it. I especially love pairing denim […]
