Ok. This post is kind of selfish. But it’s my birthday month so that’s allowed. Andy and I don’t do gifts for each other because we like to plan birthday vacations instead. This year we went to Ottawa for Andy’s birthday, and we’re leaving for Europe only a couple of weeks after mine....
Today is our six-month wedding anniversary. SIX MONTHS! Every month on our anniversary, we celebrate by going out to a nice dinner. It’s one of my favorite things to do, and it really gives us a chance to stop and be thankful for how happy and lucky we are. This month...
Burritos and Bubbly is a lifestyle blog by Andy and Kerry Bindernagel that focuses on home improvement, design inspiration and life of a modern family. We specialize in a colorful, casual, modern decorating style and like to make home design accessible and fun. We believe home improvement goes best with a side of bubbly. And a burrito. We...
Our backyard is missing! No, it didn’t get stolen in the night. This isn’t some great mystery (I’ve read too many Nancy Drew books). Our landscapers finally came to start work on our deck/backyard, and we could not be happier. I came home from work yesterday and first I saw… Oh nice, all...
Hi guys! I had so much fun on Wednesday reading all of your color suggestions for our front door, so I decided to whip up a collage of color options. I thought I knew exactly what I wanted (and yes, it’s one of these), but after seeing all of these other colors, now I’m...
OK, I’ll admit I totally wanted to write this post just so I could use this cheesy headline! Sometimes I get these ideas in my head that make me giggle a little and I just have to go for it. But I also got to look at a lot of...
Hey, guess where we’re going! We’re hopping a plane to LA for the weekend, to celebrate a big birthday and see some great friends. It’s a perfect time to escape Cleveland’s never-ending snow. Seriously, is it ever going to stop snowing? I don’t know how much more I can take. In anticipation...
With our new garage up, our entire backyard takes on a whole new shape. What was once a space dominated by a two story structure that looked like it was going to fall over any second, is now a clean, sleek, blank canvas just ready to be redone. When the weather...
The nursery is my favorite room ever. I know a lot of that is sentimental, since it’s my baby girl’s room, but it’s also just so super adorable! We shared all the final photos of this room back in April, and we have made no changes since then. However, I...
It’s no secret that I adore Bri Emery of Designlovefest/Blogshop and Emily Henderson of HGTV’s Secrets From a Stylist, so when the two collaborated to design the living room in Bri’s new apartment, the results could only be fabulous. I talked last week about how I’m gravitating towards a more pared...
