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.

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.

Last night we built and hung the supports for our vent hood insert that is being installed today, along with the rest of our appliances. A crew of three hilarious, kind, knowledgable guys from Frigidaire flew in last night and stopped by to get to know us and the kitchen before the big install day today. It’s a huge day for us and the kitchen and since all of you have been so supportive of this project (and probably just as curious about side-by-side ranges as we are), I thought it would be fun to live instagram the day!

Follow @ChrisLovesJulia to see it all go down. They are arriving at 8am MST (with donuts–eee!) and we couldn’t be more grateful or excited.

    HI! I’m a long time reader but I’m backtracking a bit as we are now preparing for our own kitchen reno. :) I’ve taken a pretty thorough look at your posts, but can’t seem to find one that explains how you built the range hood cover. Am I missing it? Thanks so much! Love your style!

      You aren’t missing it, sorry! For some reason we never got that post up.

        Ditto this! We’re tackling this soon in our lakehouse. Challenging project as it’s a tiny (but open) kitchen with 7 foot ceilings. We really don’t want to lose the window currently over the sink, but we’re moving the range there. So I found an amazing inspo pic of a built in range hood over a window and would love to see a tutorial on this. I looked at all 3 kitchen renos and didn’t see one!

    Is it weird that I am just as excited as if it was my own kitchen? lol

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 […]
