Like many older homes, it needed a lot of love and a lot of work. Over the next six years, we poured our nights and weekends into remodeling it, an experience that shaped how we live and affected how we design for our […]

First of all, thank you for the encouraging comments from our last post. It’s nice to know there are still people reading the blog (though apparently no one in our […]

Lillian in still sleeping in the mini crib (in the dining area!) but lately it’s been more evident that she’s ready to move to a regular crib. She now prefers to roll […]

Since it’s a special issue, it’s not […]

Just stopping in to share that our house is featured in the new Sunset Small Space Style magazine! (This is different from the article that was in the August issue.) The magazine profiles ten small spaces, the first of which is an 8-page spread of our home! (The photos were taken last May, when […]

Let’s get this week started off with a little garage talk, shall we? Oh, don’t let that rendering above fool you – she’s still there – our little 1910/1965 hybrid of embarrassment. Nearly a year and a half ago(!) we wrote this post about our plans to remodel while working with the existing […]

Now that we’re 3+ months into this dual kid routine, I thought it would be fun to stop by and update everyone on how we’re faring. For the most part, we’re all cohabitating surprisingly well. […]

Anyhow, new rug! The old rug was an off-white chevron rug from West Elm. There was a lot to love about it, but over time Bailey’s nails would snag the knotted design […]

With its focus on the western U.S., each issue left me thinking I want to try that / I want to eat that / I want to go there!

(They found us through our blog – yay!) They hadn’t lived in the house long, but knew they wanted to make some changes that would create more usable spaces and take […]
