Hey, good news. I still remember how to log into this thing! So, HI! Holy crap, I've missed it around here. I hope you've all been well. Overall, we've been doing really well, all things considered. And I truly look forward to the day when I don't have to end each status update like that. We ...
Our Fireplace Makeover – Before & After!
I feel like things have been somewhat heavy around here (and, well, everywhere) these days, so I thought it would be fun to lighten it up a bit and share our latest home renovation project...our new fireplace makeover! For well over a year, I've had a vision in my head about how I wanted our ...

Mudroom Closet Makeover + New Office + Fresh Air!
I'm fairly certain Jay and I will almost always have a running list of home projects to tackle. Some are large, and likely a ways away...others are bit more reasonable but may take some extra time to complete...and some are easy enough to tackle over a weekend. Just like this little mudroom ...

Our New DIY Wood Home Sign
I’ve had a few different requests for some more details on the DIY wood home sign I made a couple of weeks ago…so ask, and you shall receive! My neighbor, and friend, Kate decided to host a party with Shea Crafts after she had attended one herself. I am SO glad she did, because it was ...
We Don’t Love Chalk Paint + other Weekend Fun
