Inside Our House: A Journey of Transformation
Welcome Inside
This is where our home lives the before and afters, the room reveals, the decisions we second-guessed and the ones we’d make again in a heartbeat. Our house is a 1970s fixer-upper, and we’ve been slowly, intentionally making it ours. Browse the portfolio to see how each space has evolved, or dig into years of home posts that I’ve never wanted to let go of. Pull up a chair. Stay a while.
Inside our home, you’ll find years of real home stories, design decisions, renovation lessons, and everyday moments worth remembering. These posts have been part of this space from the beginning, and they’re staying.
Our home portfolio is a room-by-room look at how this 1970s house has transformed over time. From the first updates to the latest reveals, every change to our home is documented right here

Post may include affiliate links The Bar…The Bar…I can honestly say before I met my husband I could care less about a bar of some kind in a home. I grew up without one and my parents don’t drink at all. So it was not a necessity or a luxury to have one. However, I…
