Springtime is the time for new beginnings as well as room refreshes! This go-around we are working on my youngest daughter's room. She would describe her current room as “not my style” or “too mom-ish.” She says these like it’s a bad thing. A few years ago we ended up ditching our guest bedroom for my office and in turn, made her room suitable for gue [...]

Classroom at Home

Simple Tips for Turning a Room into a Classroom This blog post is part of the Beauty of Carpet campaign from Thistlewood Farms. We just found out that our local schools are starting out online.

Nursery with Carpet

Modern Farmhouse Nursery with Carpet This blog post is part of the Beauty of Carpet campaign from Sleep in the City. Carpet vs. Wood Flooring: We ended up choosing wall-to-wall carpet for this farmhouse nursery room (we have wood floors everywhere else) for a bunch of reasons: not only are wood floors chillier at night for feedings, but carpet brings a healthier aspect to the nursery and Easton’s sensitive nose.
