Our living rooms have been many things over the years as we adjusted to living in a household together. In the beginning, it was simply a place to sit in a small, shared apartment... an old futon, a tv, bookcases of dvd's and the dogs' crates dominated the space in a small apartment's main room. ...
Keeping Fresh
Years ago, when the TV show What Not To Wear was at the height of it's popularity, Stacy and Clinton dolled out what really was some of the best fashion advice. One of the lines that stuck with me, always, was that it didn't have to "match," it just had to "go."
I believe that this phrase is a ...
Welcoming Fall in Color
We get slightly cheated on Fall. Fall in Kentucky is almost always either 90 degrees or below freezing. The leaves sometimes don’t change color at all- instead, they stay green on the trees until an Arctic blast of a cold front rolls through then *poof* they all dump on the ground in one big, dewy ...
Bricking Around
It's a hazard of being a Realtor who loves their job... I have a way of falling in love with almost every home I step into. I find myself thinking of how I would use the spaces, where furniture would go. At the very least, I realize that I'm brainstorming kitchen renovations and how to reconfigure ...
Setting the Table for Fall
While it's officially been "fall" for two weeks now, here in Louisville, we've only had the random mild day weather-wise. Temps are still topping out at 90 (I know, because I spent yesterday sweating my brains out at the St. James Art Show), but cooler weather is on the horizon with sub-70's ...

As I write, it's 6pm on Sunday night, after three days worth of storms have ripped through our state. I hear that there were more folks without power in Lexington than there were here in Louisville- almost three times as many. We were lucky. We only lost power for 3 hours or so Friday night, and ...
The Guest Room
For the four years we've been in our home, the guest room has gone under a few transitions. First, outfitted with a desk and nightstands I bought from Target for my first apartment, then, when my mom moved in, with a giant recliner, a kitchenette, and her furniture from the farm. When she passed, ...
Summer Finds at Mahonia
Summer's arrival in a city like Louisville brings with it the sauna-like qualities of the south. Heat, humidity so thick one can practically swim through it, and mosquitos... so many mosquitos. Fortunately, there's air conditioning, there's bug repellant, and there are the welcome warm weather ...
Organization Update: The Kitchen
After much hemming and hawing, way too much time trying to find just the right canisters, and far too many hours pouring over The Home Edit's blog and inspiration-filled Instagram, the kitchen cabinets and fridge are finally organized, labelled, stacked, staged, and functional.
In the cabinets ...
