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 […]

Young Chris looks like Chuck Bartowski. :) (Have you ever watched that show, ‘Chuck’?)
He’s gotten that one before! Love it.
August means SCHOOL STARTSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!! Where did this summer go???
I must say, this summer has been great. No complaints. The only complaint I have is that we weren’t able to travel much ie to charlotte to see family and do some boating, mainly because Ryan wasn’t able to take off work. BUT we had fun here and tried to discover new things here in the city.
Our August goals are to organize our place. I still feel like I don’t know where anything is and I have been looking for my camera memory cards for the past 2 months and STILL can’t find them. boo. But, we are also going to do some baby prep, buy a twin bed, organize Brinley’s room, maybe try and do a day beach trip, and just get in gear for this next BUSY semester. I am okay to have a few lazy days here and there because come August 24th, we are busy BUSY until December 14th. Eeeks. But, all things are good and exciting, but I maaaay once or twice lose my mind.
PS you missed a HUGE debacle on Sydney’s instagram. She posted a picture from their Hawaii trip of her and a girlfriend and in the picture, the way she positioned the camera, her cleavage is INTENSE. and all the preachy LDS girls went hog-wild and said how immodest she was and yadda yadda yadda. OKAY. It isn’t modest. Wearing bikini’s aren’t “modest,” BUT if I was in Hawaii, with my husband, with NO KIDS, with THAT hot 12 yr old skinny body??? I WOULD WEAR ONE. I know I would. And I probably will some time in the future. But, dang there were over 200 comments on that picture and it was intense!
One day I am gonna get an iPhone and have instagram and NEVER miss drama again! Hahaha. And I totally agree, if I had a rocking bod, I’d be in a bikini (which tells you why I have never worn a bikini). Maybe for Cruise 2013.
P.s. School might start for you guys in August, but LAST YEAR!! Ahhhh!!!!
I can’t believe it’s already August! Only 145 days until Christmas – INSANE! Anyway, I completed a few projects like my DIY campaign style desk and my mid-century modern dresser turned entertainment center and added some to the list for August. DIY dining table, I’m talking about you!
