Another moment that I have been waiting for.  Our custom pull-out drawers in the kitchen island are installed.  Hallelujah!  If you missed it, our kitchen island is a 12′ store counter that we found on the Marketplace.  We gave it a makeover once we brought it home.  And as soon as our kitchen was far […]

This post is sponsored by The Home Depot and ShopStyle Collective.     I love to fill our home with plants this time of year.  Because after I take all of the Christmas trees and the winter garland down, it looks and feels lifeless.  Artificial plants do the trick of freshening up our home.  And, they […]

I shared the doorknobs that we chose for our new home over on social media stories.  And, I got SO MANY requests for links.  And, I can see why.  I think they are so dang pretty.  It has always been a goal of ours to build this house with very little to no maintenance.  We […]

Several months ago, I thought about what I was going to do that was fun in the new year.  I wanted to do something different.  So, I put up a question box over on Instagram stories and asked for suggestions.  And, I got a lot of new ideas.  I also added a poll to my […]

We are having a blast moving our antique furniture over here to the new house.  And, we are making it feel exactly like our home.  It’s funny.  I said the other day to Deb, “I can’t believe it.  This place is starting to look like our home.”  Deb said, “It is… and every time we […]

So many people have asked us where we found our bathroom items for the new house. We found several of our bathroom items on the Build with Ferguson website.   I had someone say, “Weren’t you overwhelmed making all of the choices for this new house?”  And, to be honest, I wasn’t.  Thank goodness… I am […]

I have said a million times.  This move is so much easier than any move we have ever been through.  First off, the new house is right across the driveway.  So one load takes so little time.  Second, we aren’t on someone else’s time schedule.  When someone else tells you when you need to be […]
