Casual Friday: The new house's style, spring dresses, an incredible kitchen, light in a home and more!
This was one of my favorite houses in Raleigh that we looked at, as far as the exterior went. Unfortunately the spaces inside and the backyard weren't right for us, but I'm so happy to see someone else snatched it up. It felt so cottage-y and traditional and cozy. All of my favorite things. One […]

Casual Friday: What we're looking for in our next house (it's complicated)
My Outfit, Polly's Sneakers One of the questions we are asked repeatedly is, "What are you looking for in your next house?!" A lot of people have asked this and is it too obscure to say "a feeling?" All of our homes have been very different and I suspect our next home will be different […]

No fear! It's in Greta's room now and doesn't it looks so great in there? After we sold the second bed in her room, there's a […]

I still haven't sent our Christmas cards out--partly, okay mostly, because they haven't arrived yet--and half of our house is currently covered in plastic because the painters showed up YESTERDAY to paint the entry and Faye's room and the hallway and Polly's room and our ceilings, finally. We're still short a shower door and even […]

If you are subscribed to our Love Letter, then last night you saw a sneak peek at some updates in the music room! Months ago, I ordered two of these boucle chairs for the basement (to sit opposite the sectional) and we got an email about 6 weeks later stating that due to Covid, they […]

I haven't shared the girls' office here since we painted all the trim (check out that post here!) But since then, the wallpaper has been installed, we hung wall sconces, their oversized pinboard that will soon be filled to the brim with their creations (I added this pennant to get them started) and we moved […]

Last week I mentioned that in some rooms, I'm getting to the layering phase. Where I hang things, and tweak things, and add textiles and elements that make it feel comfortable and home-like. Our dining room REALLY needs this touch and yesterday, it was fun to take a few minutes to shop our house and […]

Have you ever even seen our "music room"?! Maybe not. Probably not because up until yesterday the electricity hasn't worked in the room.
