In August, 2018 we will move into our new home “The Picket Fence House” where our DIY and home improvement journey will continue. The blog began 6 years ago with “The Esquire” – a home that I built in 2005 as a single mom. Here I share all of our room transformations in both houses, including lots of before + after photos, source lists and links to tutorials. To see how we decorate during the holidays, visit our seasonal home tours, too! You can also to shop my home to recreate a similar look in your own spaces!
