So you know the beach house project I worked on all last spring? We’ve finally finished all the redecorating, relandscaping, and general updating, and have started renting it out. Check out our brand-spanking-new website for photos, rates, and plenty of other fun good things.
Also, I’m offering a 10% discount to any readers who book by [...]
Yeah, I know, I’ve been really laming out on the posting here lately. The good news is I’ve been busy working, figuring out what to do with my life next, reconnecting with my friends, eating better, and getting back into an exercise routine. This weekend I got to get away to the beach house, which [...]
this weekend my friend Lyssa and I turned this:
into these:
(like always, click on the photos to see them larger)
In the process I finally learned how to sew french seams, and it turns out – they’re not that hard!
this bag of fabric is going to (hopefully) become throw pillows for the beach house this weekend (and no, it’s not from Target, just in a Target bag, also, probably not all of it will actually be throw pillows, but I like to cover my bases and over buy. Also, I like to shop for [...]
This project has officially taken over my life. Luckily, the end is actually finally in sight. (although I’ve thought this before and been proven wrong.) T. and I are down here right now and will actually finish painting the inside of the house this weekend (this is attempt #3 for this particular project.) Then we’re [...]

On Monday we painted that niche blue (Benjamin Moore’s Summer Nights, #777) and hung the [...]

T. and I are at the beach this week attempting to get the entire inside of my family’s house there painted. It’s not huge, and as of now we’re on schedule (bathroom got painted last night,) so I’m hopeful that we’ll finish. Our internet [...]
This is the giant selection of Flor tile samples I’ve ordered over the last few months in preparation for picking one for the living room at my family’s beach house. We decided pretty quickly to go with Flor, because it means that when renters (aka barn animals, according to my mom) spill/stain/ruin part of the [...]
I’ve been looking for new bedside lamps for the beach house, and had a pretty specific shape in mind. I’ve been scavenging Craigslist and eBay, because in my mind these lamps are vintage. And then today I found the closest thing I’ve come across yet. . . at Urban Outfitters of all places
