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.

Our New Marble And Soapstone Countertops in the Kitchen!

When we were designing our kitchen with Stoffer Home, from the very beginning, it was designed with a mix of marble and soapstone. […]

Ever since we came in contact with the Pugmire's concrete countertops in their kitchen, we have had it in the back of our minds for ours--except in white to contrast our dark cabinets. We love to mix traditional and modern with an industrial edge in our home and white concrete countertops around the perimeter of […]

A Walnut Counter And Backsplash in the Laundry Room
This laundry room is wrapping up quick. As in, I think (I hope!) this is the last post before the big before and afters of this used-to-be bathroom. Since we write all of our projects in real time as projects actually happen and progress, it's easy for me to feel super pumped about each piece […]

The Laundry Room's Plank Style Counters
It's been a few weeks since we checked in with the laundry room. Our small, but mighty, sink that we ordered to fit into that 15" wide base cabinet was on backorder and it finally got here last week! We celebrated because this was the last thing we needed to wrap up this laundry room. […]

Installing our Black Walnut Craft Art Countertops.
This weekend was a big one for our kitchen reno. We finally replaced those pink-painted-gray laminate countertops we've been living with for two years. Thursday, while my computer was getting fixed (it's all dry better now...Gretttaaaaaa!)

A Sneak Peek at the Countertops
I took my computer in to get fixed yesterday and they said it wouldn't be done until Friday evening. Wah Wahhhh. So while blogging isn't easy without my computer, I didn't want the week to end without giving you a sneak peek at our countertops. After a lot of research on which wood countertops would […]
