Design Sponge House Tour + All the Features!

October 24, 2016

This past summer, we had the great opportunity to work with Sabrina Smelko at Design Sponge to feature a house tour. And today, it is finally live! You can read and see the whole thing, "A Family Home in Idaho Where Comfort, Function & Dinner Parties Reign" right here. Thanks to the whole D*S staff, especially Sabrina (who's now moved on to host an HGTV Canada show) for putting our home in such a safe, lovely light. That title warmed my whole heart--home is a good place to be today.

The thing I love most about my home is there is nowhere else I'd rather be.

Other features this week!

• Better Homes and Garden's November issue features the kitchen we designed and renovated in 6 days this past summer! (Plus, so many other outstanding articles. Great issue to be a part of!) You can see more photos, the full reveal and all the sources for that project right here.

• Today, we're also taking over the liketoknow.it.home instagram account! If you are unfamiliar with LIKEtoKNOW.it, it's a way to get shoppable room sources directly to your email. You can sign up at www.LIKEtoKNOW.it and then any photo you "like" on Instagram with a liketk.it tag, you'll get the sources for the room sent directly to your email.

• This morning, they recreated our faux soapstone countertops on the Rachael Ray show and even shared a glimpse of our old in progress kitchen (a really rough photo--haha). You can watch the clip right here and our tutorial for the countertops can be found right here.

• Lastly, apparently last week, the pictures of us dressed up as The Beatles for Halloween were on Access Hollywood. I still have yet to track down the clip, but we've heard from several people now. If anyone has it--that would be fun to see!

Family Beatles Costume!

Happy Monday!

  1. So that's crazy - none of these outlets tell you that they're using your content (or get permission)? I knew there was a lot of blogger/Pinterest shenanigans about posting/sharing someone else's work without credit, but even talk shows are doing it too? It sounded like John Gidding maybe tried to give you credit, but got buried in all the other talk at the end of the segment.
