Demo has begun!! If the picture above wasn’t a jump scare for you, I envy your level headedness. I knew they were taking the roof off of the house but for some reason this isn’t what I was expecting! Here are some other pictures of the demo process:
[Read more…]My last update here was that I got married, and then I fell off the blogging wagon. I stopped making updates to my house after that just due to life getting crazy and not knowing what the future held for us in my beloved little old house. Lance and I always knew that the house had some quirks that would make raising a family in it a little challenging, but I also knew that I loved our neighborhood too much to leave it. I’ve pictured walking my kids to school, taking them to the park down the street, and summertime bike rides to get ice cream. I knew I wasn’t going to re-create that in any other neighborhood, but I was also aware that I got lucky to get this house for the price I got it at in 2020 and there was no way we could afford to buy something else that was currently on the market in the neighborhood.

It has been over 6 months since I last made a post, which is crazy, but not as crazy as life has been for the past year or so. I decided to take a step back from house projects, my blog, and social media to focus on wedding planning and staying sane, but now I am back and already planning new content to share.

It’s been a few years since I have made gift guides to share here, but I feel like I’m on top of gift giving this year and I’ve found a ton of great options so I wanted to share! I categorized everything and am only giving suggestions for people that I feel like I know or are similar to myself. Everything on these lists are items I either have, have gifted, or would love to receive as a gift! There are also some great sales on a lot of this stuff this weekend!! Each item below is hyperlinked and I do make a small commission should you chose to buy from one of my links!

About 2 years ago, I painted my guest bathroom bright purple. I’m not talking a cute muted moody purple, we’re talking BARNEY. I regretted the change pretty quickly after I did it but the thought of painting it again was daunting. Fast forward to a few months ago, Clare paint saw a post I tagged them in of my office which I painted using their products last year. They reached out and asked if I had any upcoming project and if so, could they send me some paint. I happily accepted and decided it was time to rectify my Barney bathroom.

If you remember a blog post from a few months ago, I posted a blog about the Top 5 Projects I Wanted to Complete in 2023. Well, not much on that list has gotten done, but the laundry room has!! It has actually been done for a few months but I haven’t shared it just due to being so busy. As a reminder, when I bought my house in February 2020, my laundry room was a completely blank slate with just the washer and dryer in it.
