I had been trying to decide on a theme for our shared room/nursery for Mason and our new baby for the past few weeks and when I couldn't decide on my own I decided to ask Mason what he would want. After giving him a few different options he quickly decided on a safari theme. I think it was definitely the right choice to let him decide since he's sharing the room and I want him to feel like it's still his room too. So while this room isn't a dedicated nursery I still think everything that I've picked so far definitely works for a ... Read more...
Tiny Home Interior Inspiration
Some of you may remember me talking about our latest big home design project Justin and I started back in 2020. We've been converting a detached shed, previously used for my home office and gym, into an ADU. Without changing the roof line we were able to create a comfortable, livable space.

6 Tips on How to Brighten a Dark Room
When we bought our little beach cottage 6 years ago it felt tiny and dark. The choice of wall colors definitely did not help but the ceilings are low and the room sizes are small. So we quickly went to work painting all of the rooms to make them feel brighter and more open. Since then we have made a number of home improvements that have helped make our home feel more like us. Some of those updates, including our reclaimed wood wall made a major visual impact but also left that side of our living room feeling dark. After some time we ... Read more...
Favorite Christmas Home Decor and Interior Inspiration
I know we're not even into November yet but this year we're already getting a head start on the holidays. Mason has been alerting us and Santa on what he wants for Christmas this year. I think this is the first year that I've noticed Amazon, Walmart, and Target have sent out holiday gift catalogs. Mason has been flipping through the pages telling us about everything he sees that he likes. It's the first mail he looks out for now. I've been planning (in my head) how I'm going to decorate our home this year for Christmas. Every year ... Read more...
