SEMIHANDMADE
Our wood grain Shaker cabinet fronts were designed for busy, high-traffic homes like ours. Clad with durable textured thermofoils, this line is compatible with Sektion, Akurum, Godmorgon, and Besta cabinets from IKEA. It's the perfect, practical way to add the warmth of wood to all the rooms of your home.

Collaborations
LOLOI
We have teamed up with Loloi to create a line of rugs that are as affordable as they are beautiful. This collection houses a great mix of traditional and modern rugs, in cottage-y colorways, as well as vintage-inspired beauties that you’ll want to roll out in every room.

Collaborations
STUGA
We partnered with Stuga on a line of hardwood floors — The Ingrid is really livable, and the color is very neutral. It doesn’t lean warm or cool, it’s that just right in-between. We have really loved putting it everywhere in our house. It’s the best jumping-off point for design, no matter your interior style. In addition to being beautiful, Ingrid is really durable — we have three kids, and we always have a home construction project going on. Ingrid stands up to it all.

New Peel-and-Stick Tiles: Red & White Marble and Green & White Marble

Last year, we wanted to bring color to our very popular Chris Loves Julia x FloorPops peel-and-stick tile collection. We noticed that red & white marble checkerboard and green & white marble checkerboard were trending with luxury designers. I was even considering red & marble checkerboard in the mudroom at one point. Marble tiles are […]

Video: Our Fall Modern Colonial Exterior House 2024

I was so excited to share new photos of our entire house exterior a couple of months ago. But lately, the leaves are showing off their fall colors and the golden afternoon light has been a paid actor against the brick, ivy, and landscaping. There really was no other option: I had to take you […]

The One Thing We Added to Our Kitchen (And Told No One About—Until Now)

The product was gifted but all opinions are our own. About six months ago, we added a foot pedal to our kitchen sink. (GASP! I know!)) We kept it under wraps because we really wanted to test it out for a while to see if it was something we could recommend. It all started earlier […]

Simply Roasted Honeynut Squash

There's a new squash in town that everyone's talking about, and that's the honeynut squash. A smaller and slightly sweeter descendant of the butternut squash, it's quickly become one of my favorite fall vegetables. And it makes an incredible side dish for your Thanksgiving table. This season, I'm all about high-impact, low effort dishes, and […]
