Cabin Vibes: Inspiration for our Bay Shore Boathouse

Being faced with an entire, empty house is pretty overwhelming, as everyone who has ever moved knows. But when it’s a second home, and you aren’t actually moving, we’ve learned it’s ten times harder… you aren’t starting with all the things that you already own. You’re literally starting from scratch...

Sneak peek: our kitchen!

We painted the kitchen! Ooh, I’m so mean. This is the only photo I’m going to show you of the new color, which we are crazy happy with. You’re just going to have to wait a few more days to see the real “after” photos — or at least “closer-to-finished” photos. We...

Oliver’s Beachy Nursery Reveal

We are so, so excited to show you Oliver’s finished nursery! This room was such a labor of love. It’s full of DIY elements, items from our own childhoods and gifts from friends, which all make it so much more special. Our goal was a room that’s bright and cheerful...

The most boring “master” bathroom in the world

We have talked quite a bit about our remodeling plans for our kitchen, but we haven’t yet talked about what we’re doing in our bathrooms. Getting a new kitchen and two new bathrooms all at the same time is either the best or worst decision ever. Ugh. So I took some...

Living Room Progress

Hi guys! So we spent the whole weekend … sick. Wah wah. Both Andy and Joey ended up at the doctor on Friday. He has bronchitis, and she has an ear infection+cold. I “just” have a cold, so I’m actually doing pretty well. I’m like 90% well. It wasn’t a complete...

DIY burlap frame bridesmaids gift

I wanted to make something special for my bridesmaids as a thank you for being in my wedding and for being awesome. This photo the four of us took in the photobooth was my absolute favorite thing so I had to frame it. What better than to use the burlap...

Today’s color inspiration

I want to show you what ‘s on my mind today: color.  As I’m sitting here literally surrounded by paint chips and sample cans and I’ve made multiple trips to the paint store this week, I’m imaging the perfect shade of blue, a greeny-blue that is both cheerful and relaxing....

Inspiration: when less is so much more

Well Happy Monday to you, friends! Hope you had an amazing weekend. We spent some time with great friends, took a ton of stuff to Goodwill, and also got our rumpus room ready for a new coat of paint this week (woo). Oh I’ve got some pretty pictures for you today. I...

The bedroom: yellow and gray

The master bedroom was the first room we painted when we moved in, and we painted it a really nice, soft grey. Even before I moved in I knew I wanted that room to be grey and yellow. Actually, I’d say I knew that even before I bought the house!...
