It’s always so much fun to do a house tour video for you to see things you may not catch when looking at photos. It feels like hosting a bunch of friends over to see what you’ve done to the place — without the clean-up afterwards….only lots and lots beforehand. As much as this house tour is for you and your enjoyment, it’s such a benchmark in progress for us, as well. Every time I mark the year with a house tour, I love seeing how our home is even more a reflection of us than it was before. I love to see how the ______ (insert room name) changed in just a year (or 6 months).

We tried a format for this house tour that’s slightly different than the past ones. It’s a combination of me giving you all a personal tour of rooms in the home, where I show how things are connected, talk about what I l love, what we want to do, what my secret talents are (you’ll have to see that one in the playroom), what my favorite room is in the whole house–and it’s mixed with smooth video shots of the rooms and details. So hopefully it hits all the marks of explanation + entertainment!

Grab some popcorn and watch it below or on the big screen from our newly relaunched YouTube channel!

    Okay but what about the room that has the hidden door! Is it just storage now?

    It’s really beautiful. And clearly so much hard work went into it – enjoy!

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 […]
