Wall Color: Greenblack by Sherwin Williams, Sectional, Rug, Olive Tree, Curtains
We’re completely overwhelmed with all of your support about our move and next chapter yesterday. “Thank you” is just not enough. So much positivity and advice and well wishes and suggestions on where we SHOULD move. Haha! The next couple months will be exciting! What a wonderful gift to have you all on this journey with us. We’ve had a lot of questions about if we’re bringing our furniture and we’d like to bring most of it–I THINK. But, like I mentioned yesterday, we don’t have a new house yet, just a location. So I think when we find the house, we’ll have a better idea of what will fit and what we’ll be selling. I’ll let you know.
What I do know is the best seat in the house is absolutely our Charly sectional in our family room! And we’re so excited our Charly line with Interior define is now available in leather!! And 15% off through 3/7!! Also, The Charly storage ottoman and the Charly loveseat is available in quick ship!!
Other fun things this week!

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 […]

I was excited to see you were on the Domino’s Podcast. You were great, there were lots of takeaways! I loved hearing designers you admire so I have even more inspiration – thanks for that. Best of luck in your new home search, I bet it’s going to be very exciting to start your new chapter and head out on a new family journey.
Thanks for sharing the H&M kids link! I’ve never bought their stuff for my kiddos. Do you think it fits TTS, or do you have to size up in their clothes? They have some really cute items!
Yes! I would say if you are on the fence, size up!
I love H&M for kids. I will say that in my experience, it tends to run long and skinny compared to, say, Target. For my long and skinny kids, I buy TTS. For my short and skinny kids, I size down. For my rounder children (I have six kids altogether), I size up, and plan to hem the pants.
Hi Julia & family !
I tried to post last night but my iPad kept crashing ????
Your words made me tear up &I am not a cryer. Yes, indeed….“Home is were the Mom (family) is”
anyway wanted to wish you quick selling of your home so you can quickly get on the path to better health for yourself and your beautiful family! I think the real estate listing should read “stunning modern cottage estate with canopy bed!???? (because we all know it’s not coming out!)
Looking forward to the ride. ????
