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 […]

Do you like the stuck mirrors or are you going to try to un-stick them? I’m so excited to see your renovations in this house! It is huge and has great potential! Good luck :)
Love the layout! I’m getting excited for the changes you’ll be making!! Congrats again. :)
Oh my word. We could fit 6 or 7 of our former condos in this house! Ha, so much space and potential! Although I must admit, looking at all these photos, all I can think is… wow, everything is so clean and new looking! :)
OMG – that storage is immense. You can become one of those crazy coupon people I secretly envy from my non coupon UK world!!!
I can’t believe that you’re comfortable having your daughter sleep on a different level than you.
Well, originally we were going to make her sleep in the garage, but the winters can get pretty cold in Idaho. I mean, we’re not cruel.
Just throw some bottles of water and boxes of cereal down the stairs. How else will Generation Z learn independence?
Haha!!
So much space! What an amazing storage room! I can’t wait to see what you guys do with it!
I can’t believe how quickly the whole selling/buying phase is going. Looks like this new house has so much room and potential. I’m looking forward to seeing what you do to make it yours!
It has been a complete miracle. I hope to have a whole post about it next week.
Our master bathroom actually has an extra vanity (no sink) just outside the bathroom and no bathtub, just a shower. I haven’t taken an actual bath since I was a kid (hey! I shower, people!), so having just a shower is actually great for us. Bathtubs are so much harder to clean. But with a kiddo, I can definitely see why you’d want a tub. Looks like you guys have a ton of space. You’ll never outgrow that house!
Never. Hahaha. We hope to stay here a good, long time.
That’s awesome! So much space! And I love that the closets have so much storage and organization in them already.
I know. I know!!! I was so sad to leave Greta’s custom closet, but all of the bedrooms have pretty great closets already. Score!
You sound confused about the extra vanity outside the bedroom, but that is awesome! When my younger sister and I were teenagers, we shared the hall bathroom that was also used by the guest bedroom. The bathroom had a separate vanity outside, with another sink as well. It was so awesome to be able to get ready in the morning without having to worry about someone hogging the bathroom shower/toilet. It also gave us lots of space to get ready without knocking each other in the head!

Both of the vanities are actually in the bathroom, one is just behind the door. Growing up with five sisters, I totally get how it would be awesome, but for us, I think a tub downstairs might be even more awesome. :)
Ok it’s totally weird that there’s two vanities in the bathroom. Tub totally makes more sense! :)
Jennifer
I had no clue the downstairs would have so many windows and be so bright! (I also live in Florida so I don’t really understand ramblers/basements/etc lol).
So much space and so much potential! :)
Haha, yes, they are pretty big out here.
