I feel like many other parts of a house aren’t usually seen because people mostly want to see the kitchen and master bedroom or office. But there are so many other rooms in our new house that I love! The dining room finally feels complete because of the rug. It’s crazy that a rug can …

FINALLY! I finally got my shit together and took photos of our new kitchen! When we were building our house, this was obviously the area of the house that I focused on. I have always wanted to design my dream kitchen and while there is always that something more that you find along the way that you …
YOU GUYS. I know; I fell off the face of the planet with house updates immediately after we moved in. But I’m back! With an office tour! I can’t believe it’s been TWO MONTHS since we moved in. It kind of seems like ages ago but not really. I don’t know, it’s a weird feeling. …
We’re in the homestretch, y’all!! I just realized this is the first time I’ve shared the color of our house. It’s called Deep Ocean Hardiplank! It’s so beautiful. We absolutely LOVE it! In exactly twenty 27 days, the house will be officially ours. And in 29 days, we will be moving in!

The house seems like it’s coming together more and more as the weeks go on! The house is now wrapped and the windows are all put in (well except the one at the very top; we think they have to order a new one because the one sitting in the garage is broken and it …
This was one of the most exciting parts of the entire build process so far. We had driven by early afternoon one day and all the wood and framing materials had been delivered and then the very next day, we drove by and ALL of the above was there. We were in SHOCK that it …
This is the ‘unsexy’ part of the house build process. It’s just a bunch of dirt and cement and doesn’t seem like much is getting done. However, this is probably the most important part of the house! You have to have a strong foundation in order to have a house that will last a lifetime. …
To say my brain is fried after three design meetings and countless paperwork and numbers would be a complete understatement. Building a custom home is a dream and it’s one of the most exhilarating things I’ve ever done but holy hell. It is A LOT of work. I honestly feel I’ve spent over 10 hours …
