I'm so excited to reveal our finished floor-to-ceiling bookshelves in our living room! It bears repeating, but home takes time. Sometimes, a lot of time! This room has gone through some really insane changes over the past two years, but none more than getting these custom bookshelves! Last fall, Ian and I got four IKEA [...]

Basement Update
This post has been a long time coming, and I'm so excited to share some progress with our basement! Our house has a pretty generous basement space, with a little over 600 sq. ft.

It's right off the entry, so I knew that I wanted it to look presentable since it's the first thing people will see when they come into our house. Last November, we had the flooring replaced, swapped out the toilet and vanity, [...]
