DIY Garage Makeover: How I Transformed My Garage in a Weekend

August 14, 2026 No Comments

You know what feels so good? A project that only takes a day or two but completely transforms a space.

Instant satisfaction. 🙌

And this DIY garage makeover was exactly that.

I’ve always dreamed of parking my vintage Bronco inside the garage. The only problem? There was absolutely NO room for it. Somehow the garage had slowly become the place where everything without a home… found a home.

You know the garage I’m talking about. 😅

So I decided it was time. Time to clear it out, make it functional again, and — because this is me we’re talking about — make it REALLY good-looking too.

And honestly? A few surprisingly simple changes completely transformed the space.

My Backyard Pool Renovation – Catch Me Poolside

Backyard Pool Renovation: How I Created a Resort-Style Oasis at Home

The backyard pool renovation I’ve been dreaming about (and why I’m never going inside again)

There are projects you think you want to do someday…

…and then there are the ones where you hit a breaking point and just go for it.

This pool? Definitely the second one.

My old pool was over 30 years old, and let’s just say, it was hanging on by a thread. Tiles were literally falling off, it felt outdated, and it definitely wasn’t the kind of space you walk into and think, “ahh yes, this is where I want to spend my entire summer.”

So I decided to change that.

A 3-Day Dining Room Makeover Inspired by 1982 (Yes, Really)

January 22, 2026 No Comments

This project was one of those that made me pause and say, “Okay… this is interesting.”
In the very best way.

Craig invited us into his LA home with one big question: Which space should we transform in just three days — the dining room or the bedroom?

The dining room was where life with others happened — hosting friends, sharing meals, gathering around the table. The bedroom, on the other hand, was where Craig started and ended every day… and right now, it was just a place to sleep and leave. Not a retreat. Not a space he loved.

So we did what we always do around here — we asked you.

After a round of Instagram story voting (and lots of opinions), the verdict was clear: the dining room won. And with that decision came a very specific, very bold vision.

Blake’s Room Reveal: Letting Go and Letting Him Lead

November 13, 2025 No Comments

This summer, I decided to press pause on all the adult projects and do something with my kids—not just for them. Time is flying, and Blake (who’s growing up faster than I’m ready for) wanted to redo his bedroom. So we made a deal: he’d be in charge of the ideas, and I’d be his DIY sidekick. It meant letting go of control (deep breaths), but what happened was better than I imagined.

This room became a mix of his big ideas and our teamwork—and I honestly love how it turned out. It’s bold, cool, and completely his.

Cozy Fall Home Ideas Beyond Pumpkins

September 26, 2025 No Comments

When you think of fall decorating, your mind probably jumps to pumpkins on the porch or a leafy wreath on the door. While those are classic, they aren’t the only ways to capture the season. This year, skip the predictable and lean into unexpected details that transform your home into a cozy fall retreat. These simple shifts—layering, lighting, textures, and even rearranging furniture—make a bigger impact than another pumpkin on the porch ever could. Here are 5 cozy fall home ideas beyond pumpkins.

June 27, 2025 No Comments

The Loloi Rug Class of 2025 is officially in session—and yes, they’re part of my own collection (and on sale!).

Okay, you’ve seen these rugs in my home. You’ve watched me roll them out, layer them in, and build full spaces around them. I designed this collection with Loloi to bring you rugs that are beautiful, durable, and actually work for real-life homes.

And since we’re kicking off early Prime Day deals, I figured—what better time to do a round-up of the all-stars? These are the standouts. The fan favorites. The ones that get the most questions in my DMs. So I’m giving them all the high school yearbook treatment—superlatives and all.

These rugs are already on sale, and I don’t want you to miss out before they’re gone.

They’re that good.

Let’s meet the Class of 2025.

If you’ve been following me on Instagram at any point during the last two years, you’ve probably seen a bunch of posts and stories about my beautiful ‘69 Bronco! Restoring this car is a project that is close to my heart and I’m so happy with how she turned out. This process has taken a long time (690 days to be exact!) and with the help of some truly amazing people we were able to finish my 1969 Bronco Makeover!

Fireplace Room Decor

Remember that one time I gave my front room a makeover and transformed into a cozy, inviting space with a stunning fireplace? I definitely do! I love it so much and seeing it everyday as I come down my new staircase puts a big smile on my face.

Since completing my front room project, I’ve received several DMs asking how I went about decorating the space and for links to the specific products I used. So I decided to put all my fireplace room decor items in one place!

The Front Room

As a refresher, here’s a little more info about the space.

For years and years I had dreamt of a gorgeous built-in fireplace for my home, but never quite had the right layout for one. When I bought my new house and saw the front room, all I could see was how much potential was in that space. That’s when I knew it would be the perfect room for a gorgeous fireplace design!

Modern Staircase Design Project

We’re already a few months into 2025 and you guys this year I’m focusing on CELEBRATING PROGRESS! I decided to focus on progress because even though it’s super fun to swipe through after photos, it takes a lot of time and effort to create a home and I really want to slow down and enjoy the process!

My first project of the year (and one I’ve wanted to do for 2 ½ years!!) was renovating my staircase! I’ve been dreaming about a modern staircase design since the kids and I moved in a couple of years ago and I finally got around to it. Better late than never, right?
