One of our clients has a standard builder-grade home and is trying to figure out how to make it rejuvenating to her. She has great taste but is a busy doctor who needs a refreshing space to come home to. She also wants her kids not to spend a lot of time in front of the TV. This client had an extra room downstairs she didn't know what to do with, and so one of…
Today we're sharing our experience with hiding pool equipment in our backyard! We've got ideas on how to hide pool equipment in a variety of ways, plus how we attempted hiding our pool equipment with plants before working with, not against, our wall! Our story starts 7 years ago when we moved into our big California fixer-upper with the smokin' fine backyard! (OK, well...it wasn't smokin' hot yet—as you can see in our first backyard…
I understand why people on the internet think I must be a cleaning maniac when they look at photos of our house. It doesn't look cluttered or dirty. It looks simple and tidy! A lot of things are white or light-colored. So it must be clean, aye? Here I would like to produce my best Villainous Mastermind Laugh slash Just-a-Giggle-Plain-and-Simple because if you have ever really been inside my home and you look closely you…

We're sharing the Top 3 things we'll miss most when we move, PLUS the many surprising functions our best hot water dispenser ever provides for us! 😄 "What will we miss?" is the question Matt and I have asked ourselves approximately one hundred billion times. (Well, I can't technically say Matt has asked himself that question—I'd have to ask him first—but his wife has certainly brought this question up in conversations.) Why? This is part…
After knocking our elbows into the walls of our too-small shower one too many times, we decided a change needed to be made. We came up with a plan to flip around our bathroom layout so that we could create a huge new double shower floor plan (including a seat and double shower heads)! Once we figured out how that was possible (our available space to expand the bathroom was nil), we were able to…
You and us, we're in a blog relationship together, right? You've seen the inside of our house, our bedrooms, our bathrooms, our closets...You've read my (Jess) innermost thoughts about things like drawers and grout and (not-so-secretly-anymore) wanting to live in a treehouse. You've gotten a peek at some of our home life through the blog and Instagram stories (and the back of our children's heads because we're not into putting their faces on the internet,…
When we were making decisions on our emergency kitchen remodel (yes, it was 100% UNPLANNED and the story is HERE!), having a gorgeous, large bridge-style faucet was the "in" thing. However, I consciously chose to say no to that trend, however hard it was, in order to go with something highly functional, while maybe not quite as stunning (yet still beautiful)! Sometimes the most beauty is IN the function! Ready to tackle your next kitchen…
For those of you who've been asking about these two items from our latest Instagram Reel about our updated tea drawer, here you go: The Black Canisters: This is where we keep our loose leaf teas. I tried about 87 different canisters before I found these (they feel SO good and high-quality), and have meant to write a post about it for months but just haven't had time, so here you go! :) Black canisters…
