Semihandmade
Our wood grain Shaker cabinet fronts were designed for busy, high-traffic homes like ours. Clad with durable textured thermofoils, this line is compatible with Sektion, Akurum, Godmorgon, and Besta cabinets from IKEA. It's the perfect, practical way to add the warmth of wood to all the rooms of your home.

Loloi
We have teamed up with Loloi to create a line of rugs that are as affordable as they are beautiful. This collection houses a great mix of traditional and modern rugs, in cottage-y colorways, as well as vintage-inspired beauties that you’ll want to roll out in every room.

STUGA
We partnered with Stuga on a line of hardwood floors — The Ingrid is really livable, and the color is very neutral. It doesn’t lean warm or cool, it’s that just right in-between. We have really loved putting it everywhere in our house. It’s the best jumping-off point for design, no matter your interior style. In addition to being beautiful, Ingrid is really durable — we have three kids, and we always have a home construction project going on. Ingrid stands up to it all.

looking for inspiration?
A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]

CONGRATS!!!! It is so fun to hear a proud daddy! Sleep when she sleeps…every time. :)
Wow…congratulations. What a beautiful baby..

Grandpa and Grandma Marcum
She is so dang cute!! Congratulations
She’s SO cute!! Look at all that dark hair. Congrats!
That hair! The bows! Her perfect lips! She’s a cuppy-cake. I think from the side she looks like Julie. Me and Ken are hoping to come next Sunday for the day. We’ll call.
Congratulations Mommy and Daddy!
Oh, she is just so so beautiful! Congratulations!!!!
I
LOVE
HER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my goodness thanks for putting up that video! Videos are SOOOO much better than pictures. Greta is sooo beautiful. Her little mouth. I am dying. And how adorable hearing Chris “She is sooo cute.” Seeing Daddy and baby together warms my heart.
Oh my goodness. I want you to call me (when you’re ready to chat about labor) and tell me all about it. I am SO PROUD OF YOU! Isn’t it amazing how quickly pregnancy ends? And how fast you forget about the pain? WHY IS THAT!? The reason that we forget is that we would never have more children if we remembered how bad it really was!!
Anyways, we are so thrilled for you guys. Baby’s are the best. ANd…baby GIRLS are even better :-) Lather on that baby magic and soak these newborn days in because once she hits Brinley’s age you’ll think…why don’t you nap 5 hours at a time anymore!!!!
Ah, I’m going to cry. I miss Brinley being so small and quiet.
Good work! and Congrats!!! Love you soooo much and give baby Greta a big kiss and squeeze for me!!!!
