If any of you have been paying the slightest bit of attention to our home reveals, or if I'm lucky enough to have ever had you as a houseguest, you know that I'm a bit of a wallpaper hound. I love the way a great paper can make or break a space. Think of your grandmomma's 1970's bathroom versus ...
Coronado Update: Powder Room Reveal
There's almost nothing I love more than a little half bathroom. To me, if there's ever a room in a house in which you can go slightly overboard and a little wild, it's in these tiny occasional rooms, and if said powder room happens to be the space where guests always steal away for a quick toilet ...
Steam Heat
I. Hate. Ironing.
I don't know why. I have fond smells of standing in the basement laundry room at my grandparents' house, chatting with my grandma as she went through all the laundry for the week. My grandpa was one of those older gentlemen that wore a collared shirt every single day. No ...
Coronado Update: Hall Bath Reveal
Truth be told, this is sort of our primary bathroom, even though it's really the hall bath upstairs, but we don't really sleep in the primary bedroom because the layout in one of the other bedrooms worked better for us, and the primary bedroom with the attached en suite bath just seemed to work ...
Coronado Update: Dining Reveal
In the beginning...
In the beginning, I don't think we had one real photo of the dining room. I've scrolled back on my phone, perused the old listing, and all I could find were these:
I went into this room knowing two things. First, I wanted a dining room that would feel like a dark and ...
Coronado Update: Kitchen Reveal
Remember where we came from?
For so many months, it's seemed like Bryan and I (and now Oscar and Sid) have been just trudging through life in a house that's just not 100% done anywhere. The dining room still needs curtains (they're going in today, actually!), I'm waiting for a table to ...
Coronado Update
I mentioned to the hubs on Friday that I felt as if we'd been running a marathon and just crossed the 20 mile marker. His response was "That's when it starts to get hard!" The last month has brought a whirlwind of activity to the Mills household;
Sadly, when our front doors arrived they were ...
A Good, Warm House
My grandmother, Naomi, was a funny woman. I don't mean funny as in odd. I mean that she was often found cracking herself up. We all have those strange, personal ticks when we start laughing so hard we can't stop. Hers was that she would place her tongue just between her front teeth so that when ...
Coronado Update
Well, friends, we've made it through another month here at the new house, and in that month, SO MUCH has happened in the world of renovation.
We'll start with the easy: The tree came out on the 16th and 17th of November, and I can't thank Louisville Tree and Landscape enough for making what ...
