Project Update: The Primary Bathroom Has a NEW Plan
It's been over a year since we started designing our bathroom. We were working with a company for the cabinetry, and they came up with two different layouts. We selected one, tweaked it a bit and chose a lot of the finishes...annnnnd honestly we could never quite give the final "go ahead." This led to […]

Plumbing, Electrical, Floor Prep - An Update on Bathroom Progress
If it feels like we have 12 projects happening at the same time, that's not true. It's probably closer to 15. JK it's not that bad, but it sure feels like a whirlwind at times! And while things have been progressing in the playroom, homework room, and exterior, major happenings have been... uh... happening, I […]

Casual Friday: Our Demo'd Bathroom!!!, Cottage Inspo, Exterior Paint Colors & More!
Demo on our bathroom happened this week and it was so shocking to see the space after it was completely cleared. I actually gasped. It seems to have grown 10x! My sister was so sure there must have been a wall cheated out somewhere. Our minds just couldn't get around the fact that this huge, open space […]

My 5 Closet Rules + Spring Wardrobe Favorites
When we finished our closet renovation last year, and many times since, I get asked, "But are these all of your clothes and shoes?" And I give an enthusiastic YES! There's no hidden dresser or extra clothes stashed anywhere. It's not a little bit of clothes by any means but I'm also not a fashion guru (I […]

The One Surprising Thing We Would Change about our Bathroom
We've been using our newly remodeled master bathroom for 5 months now and it still feels like a dream.

Even still, we often get asked (mostly by others gearing up for their […]

Do You Have a Bath Mat? + A few favorites
When we finished our bathroom a couple months ago, I couldn't believe how many people asked about a bath mat! To be completely honest, we'd either throw down a towel before stepping out of the shower or just dry our feet and step out one foot at a time. But recently, instead of continuously going […]

Designing Our Ikea Closet Might Kill Me.
I need to be honest--we struggled designing our closet. I think we always assumed once we had squared off corners in an open space (something we did during our bathroom renovation), it would just be easy and everything would come together. But then it didn't. It could be that my brain from a lot of […]
