Think it doesn't matter where you put your trash can, whether it's a "portable" one or a pull out trash can?) Think again!🤗 (jazz hands!) The placement of this highly-used item in your kitchen (and other spaces) matters a lot! If you were to calculate how many times per day, week, month and year you make the motions you do relating to this item, you'd be surprised at how much time you can save just…
Four different clients of ours were looking for ways to update their kitchens. Two were keeping and reworking/repainting existing cabinets, and two were doing a complete kitchen gut renovation. NONE of them were thinking about the "extending kitchen cabinets to ceiling" route, but we encouraged them all to do so! Honestly, extending your kitchen cabinets to the ceiling is a relatively easy, inexpensive update with huge rewards! (Or, if you're ripping out your existing cabinets,…
For whatever reason, my brain's first instinct in starting to write about a new locale is the language, so here you go! :) We came to Zimbabwe already having been quizzed daily in the local phrases by a beautiful Zimbabwean woman we met during our first year living in Europe. We'd see her every day and have to call out good morning, answer her questions, etc. Lest I make it seem like I spoke the…

It took all my restraint to type "modern farmhouse ideas" in that subject line, because for years I avoided anything to do with "farmhouse" style. (If you know, you KNOW.) But hear me out on this one! :) I have sweet memories of going over to play with friends in an actual farmhouse as a child. It was simple and messy and people came in with good clean dirt and a family worked and lived…
An update on how our small front yard landscaping ideas with no grass turned out...complete with drought tolerant plants, two seating areas, and a fountain! :) I was digging through our archived photos and realized that with EVERYTHING else (i.e. kitchen, laundry room, walk in closet, built-in closets and our backyard...just to name a few :) )... ...I'd never shown you guys how (years later) our grass-free front yard project looked after growing in! Oh…
Looking for under sink storage ideas? Whether it's for your kitchen or bathroom, this is primo space that usually gets used incorrectly! Let's talk about why this happens and what to do instead! Confession: one of the first things my eye goes to when analyzing a kitchen's success is what they did for under sink storage. 95% of the time, my heart sinks. Because 95% of the time, they've gone with a cabinet. I can't…

Why did we DIY our bathroom vanity instead of buying one? We 100% recommend all our clients do this! (And why did we go with a wood vanity instead of a painted one?)
