Sourdough baking essentials from sourdough tools, whisks, proofing baskets, mixing bowls, dutch ovens and more!

I finally tried my hand at Focaccia bread and man I wish I had made this sooner! It is WAY easier than making a loaf of sourdough bread and has so many amazing flavors!

It’s actually called “Grandma’s Peach Cobbler.” Which is why I picked it to make! I love my peach cobbler to have more of a breading versus a granola topping so that’s why I chose this specific recipe!

It’s full on fall here, which means I have been helping myself transition into this cooler weather by making alllll the comfort foods! I love sharing tried and true recipes with friends so I thought…why not share them with all of you too!

For this bathroom we used all Daltile products which we love because they offer a wide variety of quality styles at a very affordable price.

We were originally planning to paint the brick white and the wood trim a slate blue. But for multiple reasons, one being our total cost into the project so far, and the other being, the overall aesthetic of the neighborhood, we ultimately decided to go in a different direction.

Everything we used in this space were things we already had! And it’s amazing what a little creativity and rearranging can do to a space.

In our home (and in a lot of the houses we renovate), we have a SLEW of wall textures that we added in to create even more drama and layering to our spaces. Take a look at some of our favorite!

I’ve rounded up 9 of my favorite bathroom faucets under $160. A lot of these we have used in previous renovation projects too!

This past month we have slowly begun to transition our girls into a shared room, therefore revamping this space was a must! This vintage inspired design theme; combining both found and new items has helped create a space that is timeless and classic.

The story behind this big beautiful home goes a little something like this….we found out this old 1920s English Tudor in the heart of the University of Illinois’ campus with water damage that wrecked havoc on the entire main level….

There is a plethora of options available to you when it comes to adding texture to your walls. Gone are the days where all you had to choose from was horizontal shiplap! Today we have an expansive list of options and I’m about to break then all down for you!

In 2021 we saw this re-emergence of traditional, classic design that some people (those outside the design world) would describe as very “vintage” like; while IN the design world would be categorized as “Grandmillennial.”

So often we want a specific design or decor piece because we saw someone else have it and it looked so beautiful in their space and then when we buy into that trend or that piece, we find that sometimes it doesn’t always give us that same feeling that it did when we first saw it in “so and so’s” home.

I had so much fun designing this house though. So much so that I wanted to share it all with you here! You can find most of the details and sources below!

There are so many components that go into making over a kitchen that it can be intimidating to know where to even begin or what to even focus on. But I’m here to assure you that you don’t need to be a design expert to take charge in this arena. All you need are a few simple tips on where to begin and what to focus on.

A sweet collection of all the things I am loving right now for a living room!

I’m gonna be honest, we have something really REALLY big in the works; something that feels like a HUGE dream fulfilled for us. We can’t really release the details yet, but…..you guys, we are so freaking excited.
