They installed our walkways, stairs, retaining walls, planter beds and pool decking (to perfection, might I add). They work exclusively with Belgard materials, which are some of the… Continue reading Catalog photo shoot!
Basement Transformation!
For the first year of us living in the house, our basement/garage was a nightmare. And I mean NIGHTMARE! Our foundation is built out of ICF (insulated concrete form) which is basically glorified Styrofoam. It is a fabulous building product, but left uncovered is HIDEOUS. Really, concrete oozing out of Styrofoam walls might be one… Continue reading Basement Transformation!
Kids Bedrooms
I spent the weekend working on my soon-to-be nephew's nursery, which made me realize that I have yet to show you my girl's rooms! To my kids dismay, I like to design kids bedrooms similar to adult bedrooms: light, airy and minimal, but with a touch of whimsy. If my kids had it their way,… Continue reading Kids Bedrooms

It only took 7 months, but here is the kitchen and dining room reveal!
Throwback Thursday!
Since it's Thursday, and cruising by our last house on my way home this morning made me miss our cute old abode, I thought I would take you down memory lane with some before and after pictures of our Running Deer Trail project. People thought we were crazy when we bought that house, but even… Continue reading Throwback Thursday!
