I must say when it comes to houses I can’t make up my mind. There are just too many styles I love. Too many color palettes I’m drawn to. Clean and white. Dark and moody. I just can’t decide! For instance, I’m all about an all marble bathroom. And yet I can also get along just fine with some hardwoods in the bathroom.
Home is where the heart is, but it’s also where your entire family is 24-hours a day right now. It might have you thinking about a room that needs some help. We’re now offering E-Design for all “pull and replace” projects!
To our clients, friends and neighbors – we are thinking of you all right now as you’re hunkered down in your homes, many of which we’ve had the privilege of working on over the years.

(First things first….If you haven’t been around to see the first two installments of this Mission Hills remodeling reveal, be sure to check them out. You can read about the kitchen (below left) here and the mudroom (below right) here. Believe me, they’re worth your time!) But today, I wanted to share with you a…
Ok, so today is the day I finally get to share pics of our new house! I’m referring to this project as the ‘House on High’ both as a nod to the street name and the simple fact that my husband and I both feel like we are living on a high as we dig into…
I happened upon an advertisement for a brass sconce this morning with a big fat price tag, and my first thought was, haven’t I seen that before?? But for like half the price?
