An hour to do, a minute to undo 🍁 We're out of An hour to do, a minute to undo 🍁 We're out of yard waste bags anyway 🤷‍♀️ We're still deep in the stage where every day feels like an exhausting marathon, but this squad sure does make it all so damn cute 🤗 . . . #oldhouseyoungkids #largefamilylife #bigfamily #leafpile #fallcleanup
It's here! The living room has a whole new feel th It's here! The living room has a whole new feel thanks to our excellent new rug upgrade from @loloirugs This geometric wool pile rug is from their @chrislovesjulia collaboration – it's hand-tufted, GoodWeave certified, and feels like a dream underfoot. The kids are already breaking it in with an impromptu dance party 💃 We are SO close to the finish line, guys. Just a few more fine details and she'll be ready for her close-up. And her zoom out. And maybe a pan across the room. All the things, really 📸
Making our vision a reality with these customizabl Making our vision a reality with these customizable bookshelves from @roomandboard 🙌 We added on some insert options that will help us manage (and hide!) all the junk that piles up with 5 kids. Then we custom installed them by stacking on cabinets we already had to take advantage of our tall ceilings. [❗Important Note: These are designed to sit on the floor, so we added additional supports to manage the weight load and secured everything to the wall studs.... More details on that coming soon in Stories!] Since the architecture is super ornate and traditional, we're balancing things out by blending in more clean, modern lines & finishings. What do you think so far?? Now it's almost time to start loading these up with our aforementioned junk 🤗 . . . #livingroom #roomandboard #homerenovation #roommakeover #modernbookshelf

REAL TALK: We tend to go a little overboard when choosing items to buy for our home and family - we want things that function well, look good, and fit within a given budget. Everything must check AT LEAST two of those boxes, but ideally we’ll hit all three. This usually means that we spend WAY too much time researching and reading reviews, but whatevs - our obsession is your gain, right?

When you click on one of our website links or a link from our social media, we may make a small affiliate commission from the seller as a thanks for sending you to the good stuff. It won’t cost you a penny more, and we’re only going to recommend things that we really use or love. Doing so helps us offset the cost of dedicating a ridiculous amount of time finding the very best stuff, so THANK YOU for taking a look at what we share with you online - Clearly you have excellent taste ;)
