"What makes you happy?"

February 20, 2011

We believe we should all love where we live.

We’re a couple of homebodies, working to uncover the home our home wants to be. And we’re so happy to have you here.

Befores, afters, mood boards, plans, failures, wins. We’ve done a lot of projects, and they’re all here. 

We have a long-standing relationship with DIY, and love rolling our sleeves up and making it happen. 

Even when you don’t want to rip down a wall, you can make that space in your home better. Right now.

I asked Chris this question as we were finishing up dinner.  He said:  
“You.  
Watching Greta learn new things.  
Being with family.  
Providing for my family.  
Making a good meal.  
Those few minutes before we go to sleep when we cuddle.
Relaxing.”

When the laundry is done.
Sleeping.
Getting ready for the day.
Exercising.”
Cheers to being happy.  Excuse us while we cuddle and watch The Phantom of the Opera.
