TGIF! I have a big announcement today that I am very excited about! So without further ado, let me introduce you to a new weekly feature on the blog that I am calling Five Minute Friday!

Rooftop Retreat: Week 2
Last week I showed you our rooftop deck. The one that's basically been abandoned for the better part of a decade. And this week, I'm excited to show you what I have planned to turn this space into a rooftop retreat that our whole family can enjoy! About a decade ago, we bought a couple of lounge chairs for the deck... but other than posing for this photo, we never really used them. It turns out, we're not really lounge chair people. And especially now that we have kids, we need a more ... View the Post
“Fall in Love” Canvas Art for Fall
I am really enjoying working on some DIY projects to bring some touches of fall in to our home, and I'm having fun playing with different color combinations.

{shopping for style} 15 Modern Bar Stools Under $200 & the Ones We Picked For Our Kitchen
Our style is pretty modern {or more specifically, modern metro with a touch of urban funk}. I say "our" because I am fortunate that Scott and I have very similar taste! But having a modern aesthetic can be challenging at times. It is sometimes frustrating to walk through store after store seeing more traditional furniture options that just don't feel like us, and as a result, we often end up doing a lot of our shopping online. It also seems that furniture with modern lines is often ... View the Post
