This post is sponsored by Master Spas but all thoughts and opinions are my own Can you believe it’s been a full year since we got our new Master Spas hot tub? When I first posted about it, I received SO many questions from you guys! One of the hottest topics to date – even more than the new bedroom\bathroom addition! And in honor of our first anniversary as hot tub owners, I thought it would be fun to answer the most popular questions that came in from you guys. Sound good? Let’s goooooo! As a refresher, we went with their Clarity Balance 8 model, which is big enough to seat 6 with plenty of ..read more

Hi guys! We’re starting this year off with a bang with a brand new bathroom reveal! This project is a first for us, because this bathroom project wasn’t our typical remodel. It actually didn’t even exist when we bought our house. Confused? Let me explain. Back in the fall of 2019, we purchased this old fixer upper, knowing that there had been a bedroom addition that was added onto the original floor plan some time during the 1990’s. It was in rough shape though; we’re talking no HVAC, no insulation, and no foundation. The other BIG issue with the space was that there was no way to access it ..read more

I am sooooooooooooooo (too many o’s? maybe…but I’m so enthusiastic about sharing this project!) dang excited to share this makeover with you today! Behind the scenes, it’s been almost 21 months in the making! So, I owe you a little backstory before we get into all those juicy details and all the photos.

Construction was movin ..read more

This post is sponsored by Master Spas but all thoughts and opinions are my own Today is a BIG DAY!  It’s been months in the making, but our back yard makeover is complete! This has been one of our slower projects to finish (think construction delays and snow storms galore), but it’s been soooo worth the wait! As a little refresh, many of you already know that we have been adding a new bedroom, bathroom and closet onto the existing footprint (as well as tweaking the floorplan) of our house for the last year. It’s been quite the slippery slope and has forced us to address a few other proje ..read more

This post is sponsored by Serena & Lily Happy Thursday friends! You guys know my love for Serena & Lily runs deep…well, it’s about to get even deeper! Let me explain why.

IYKYK. But, lets get back to my explanation, our current supply chains are a mess here in the US, and I hear things will get a lot worse before they get better. Ordering goods online used to be easy and fast, but now I’m const ..read more

This post is sponsored by Serena & Lily A few months ago, I shared with y’all that I was on a mission; to give our teeny weeny dining room a new look, that also functioned well for our family. This lil’dining room is a challenging space that has had me scratching my head since we bought our home back in the fall of 2019. Our floorplan is an open concept (which is great, but can make furniture placement tricky!) and the dining space sits right in the middle of the kitchen and our living room. Here’s a look back at what this space looked like when we bought this old fixer. Can you believe ..read more

This post is sponsored by Ornamental Decorative Millwork When we started this guest house remodel, I decided early on that I wanted a casual, cozy, and comfortable (my favorite three C’s) space for our guests to enjoy when they come to stay with us for a visit! And because design with lots of wood accents is my love language, I started brainstorming ways to add warm wood tones wherever I could! We got right to work replacing the old carpet with wood floors, covered the walls with pine tongue and groove planks, and started researching ways to update the old beams. This is what they looked like ..read more

Today is an exciting day around our house! Our kitchenette in the guest house is finally complete and I am so dang excited about how it came out that I could shout it from the roof tops! I think we should just get right into it, because I just can’t wait to show you guys! Sorry in advance for the amount of !!!!! that you will see in this post…please forgive me in advance. Ahhhhhh are you screaming yet??? Cause I am! My goal was to create a fun and collected space that didn’t feel too serious. I also wanted it to feel like it was related to the main house. Think cousins, but not twins, ya know ..read more

This post is sponsored by Serena & Lily I get lots of questions about all of our projects around this old fixer upper, and I always try to give an honest answer so that I can help you guys, in case you’re thinking about tackling something similar in your own homes! I also get lots of source questions, ie. “where did you get that rug, piece of furniture, accessory, etc.?” Talking furniture and accessories with you guys is one of my favorite past times…I know, I know, I’m very exciting over here. And one of the most asked about pieces of furniture in my home are my Venice Rattan Chairs from ..read more
