WE MOVED! | WHEN, WHERE, AND WHY?

Posted on September 28, 2021December 9, 2021 by Megan

To put it simply, we had too much. Too much house, too much yard, too much time and money spent… We try our best to be aware when something is taking too much of our resources, and not just in time and money, but energy, attention, space in our brains, etc. That’s where we were at with our old home. It’s a beautiful home, with a nice yard, lots of space, a great location… and yet, we weren’t happy because we were stretched thin…

RENOVATING AND ORGANIZING OUR COAT CLOSET

Posted on July 21, 2020December 9, 2021 by Megan

BUILDING A SHELF FOR MY PLANTS

Posted on July 29, 2019December 9, 2021 by Megan

Maybe it’s my 30’s approaching, or maybe it’s just a phase, but this year I decided I love houseplants. For Mother’s Day, Tyler and C took me to Home Depot and I picked out a snake plant. Then I found a couple golden pothos… A few succulents and a yucca cane. Now I feel compelled…

HANGING A BABY GATE | USING A LASER LEVEL

Posted on July 22, 2019December 9, 2021 by Tyler

We try to plan our projects out in advance, regardless of size, to help us stay on budget. When our toddler started making a dash for the stairs at every opportunity, hanging a baby gate jumps to the top of our list. Fortunately, this is a quick “knock-out-during-a-nap” sort of project, so we dove right…
