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.
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.
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.

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 […]

An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a friend
who had been conducting a little homework on this. And he
actually ordered me dinner due to the fact that I found it for him…
lol. So let me reword this…. Thank YOU for the meal!!
But yeah, thanx for spending time to discuss this matter here
on your site.
Nice article and great knowledge about glass and stone mosaic . I love this story and enjoy with your words!
Stunning!! So much work, but worth it! Hopefully grouting will go by much faster! :)
Looks so great! It’s too bad you won’t be able to enjoy it to the degree that you were once planning but Hey! it’s practice!! :)
Good luck with the showings!
I love the wraparound look, but I am curious as to why you didn’t go further back on the fridge section- what if a smaller fridge is eventually placed there? Also, will you be painting the side of the cabinet under the microwave?
That tile is gorgeous! It’s going to look so amazing when you guys are all done!!
marrrrrble!!
This looks GORGEOUS Julia! Beautiful job!! I love how you carried the tile around the pantry doorway over to the fridge wall – ooh, the drama. I love it!
Looking good! I’m sure it will look even better fully grouted and sealed. I won’t say “can’t wait” because I’m sure y’all need a bit of some rest after all that. :)
I am curious why you decided to go all the way up around the pantry door? Or why you tiled there at all, and didn’t just leave it as a backsplash behind the counters? I have zero experience designing kitchens, so I’m not trying to be snarky. I’m genuinely interested in your thought process on that. Thanks!
I really think it personal aesthetic preference. Because our kitchen counter in the last photo is on the same wall as the pantry, we wanted to carry it over the entire pantry instead of just having a hard stop there.
GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So so stunning.
That tile is STUNNING. You guys did an amazing job! Best wishes on your showings!
Love it!
Gorgeous!!
The tile is beautiful. Sometimes I don’t love certain marble tiles – they look too yellow or brown or something but this is the perfect clean grey/white look I like about marble!
Kitchen is looking incredible!
Thanks so much! I know what you mean about the different coloring, too.
