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.

Befores, afters, mood boards, plans, failures, wins. We’ve done a lot of projects, and they’re all 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.

Photos are one thing, but there’s nothing like a video to share our home. We are excited to share a short walk-through of our first floor all decked out for Christmas. Not only can you see all the decorations, but you can hopefully better understand the flow.

Enjoy the video below and to see photos of our home for Christmas, check out this post.

    Gorgeous home, incredible vision, ridiculous amount of work, fantastic style. This Christmas Carol was meant for you, “God rest ye merry gentle ones whom nothing did dismay…” Have a wonderful Christmas holiday.

    Just stunning. How beautiful it looks with the snowy backdrop outside. Enjoy the holidays this year, much more settled AND with your new bathroom!!!

  7. It looks so festive and magical! Love all the small, but simple details! Thanks for sharing, I always leave inspired!

  8. Michelle says:

    Beautiful home and I also like the music. I really do miss the wide aspect ratio of your videos, as you used to do them, even with Chris Cooks. I also miss Chris talking during his videos too. That aside, I hope you enjoy a very Merry Christmas and New Year after all this work in 2020.

    Beautiful home and holiday decor. I’m not sure if its possible, but it feels like the turning on the video is just a fraction too fast, and I was wondering if there was a possibility to slow them down just slightly? Thank you!

    • Sarah C says:

      You can adjust the speed of the video. Click the gear icon on the bottom right. You can speed up or slow down. If you think it’s only slightly too fast, you can watch it at .75 normal speed. I watched it at normal speed and then at .5 speed to catch the details.

  10. It’s so lovely- I bet it must feel amazing to get to enjoy Christmas fully in your home this year!

    Beautiful! I loved the background music – at times it sounded like “Welcome Christmas” (from The Grinch :))
    Can you tell me the artist who is playing it so I can add it to my Christmas playlist? Or is it Preston?

  12. April says:

    Wondering if you can mention the name of the music played on the video. Your home is gorgeous.

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 […]
