Make Tile the Focal Point In Your Home!
With the recent reveal of Greta's bathroom, the obvious star of the show is the tile. That bathroom is dressed in gorgeous tile head-to-toe (our most intricate tiled space to date)! Oftentimes, I think tile is mistakenly seen as the supporting actor, but I always consider it to be the lead character. The tile you […]

When to Use an Ottoman | Design Tip!
One of the most asked-for furniture links in our house is the ottoman in our bonus room! I don't blame you one bit because it's one of my very favorite pieces. We got it years ago for our basement family room, and even still, it's such a beautiful, functional piece of furniture! The bummer part […]

Paint Sheen Guide
Whenever we do a painting project, the follow-up questions we get are, "what color is that?" and "what paint sheen is that?" I'll geek out on paint colors and color theory another day, but today it's all about paint sheen. Selecting a paint sheen is just as important as selecting the color because it can […]

Design Tip! Plug in a Kitchen Countertop Lamp
A few years back, I bought a thrifted lamp and I had the idea to use it on my kitchen countertops. I don't know exactly how it came to be, and it wasn't necessarily something I've seen before, but it felt right. In the evening, I love turning off the overhead lights and turning on […]

Comparing 10 Popular Countertop Materials
We're making headway in the laundry room! The tile was laid, the cabinets are in, the wallpaper is up, and the light fixtures have been installed. The next thing to be done, (and the reason we're at a standstill) is install the countertops. I have been neck deep in countertop materials and so I thought […]

All of the Different Wallpaper I have Used
In case you missed the announcement in our Love Letter, the wallpaper is officially installed in the laundry room, and I could not be ANY MORE IN LOVE! My ultimate goal for the laundry room was to create a space that is fresh, clean, bright, and a little utilitarian (the straight-laid tile floors definitely bring that). With […]

A Full Guide on Picture Lights + A Round-Up
It is no secret I love the classic and elegant look a picture light can bring to a space. Remember when Chris hung one up in our living room this past winter? I do love to be a rebel and think outside the box, like using a picture light in our kitchen's built-in. However, the most recent […]

Changing the Function of a Room
Recently, I came across an image of a beautiful room, engulfed in a mural, much like the study--but it was a formal dining room. It was so beautiful and I momentarily thought OUR STUDY COULD BE A FORMAL DINING ROOM. But, then I came back down to reality and the truth of the matter is--in […]

Evolution of the Dining Room
If you subscribe to our Love Letter then last week you saw the newest update to the dining room that includes a one-of-a-kind Loloi vintage rug.

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 […]
