I love the question WHY. (Except when it's coming from a 3-year-old who asks it 872 times per day…then it gets old real fast.😆) *** WHY care about what we do in our homes? *** WHY spend a good amount of time figuring X problem out? *** WHY is Fix Y or Solution Z important to you? These things DO matter. And I know that if you're on this website of ours, seeing posts we…
I always loved the marble shower look—but I didn't love the price tag. If that's you as well, read on! Matt and I figured out a solution (spoiler alert: it's porcelain slab shower walls!).

Heyo! Currently, I’m working on the design for our new backyard (if you can call it a yard😆) and I'm writing to you who'll be asking yourself this question either now or in the future: 👇 As we move into our own new house at the beach, the outdoor spaces is one of my top priorities. If not THE main priority, because I’m just a 10% nicer, happier human being when I’m outside. (What's that, Matt? You’re saying the percentage is…
Today we're sharing how and why we utilized a queen murphy bed cabinet in our multi-purpose room, how it works, & how it gives us a 3-in-1 "guest room"!
