Of course we wanted to completely remodel and update the bathrooms, but because we’re not even sure of the outcome of the house, toilets and sinks were enough, for now. Here is what the bathroom looked like after we removed 3 layers of carpet and matting, discovered...

When we got the keys to this house, we worked pretty much non-stop to transform it into a temporary place we would be comfortable to call home. While Zanna and Zynnia tackled the seemingly never...

Our Dining Room Remodel from Clutter to Zen

We inherited a house. Well, kind of. It’s still working it’s way into whatever it is supposed to be. But that doesn’t stop us from making it what we want it to be right now. Grow where you’re planted right? In other words, make wherever you are now be as close to the dream as you...
