Read MoreOur First Official House Tour!
/
My loves, remember back in February when we teased something fun we filmed for the day? Well we can finally show you what it was: Our first official house tour we’ve ever done (after six years of living here, no less), and we filmed it with HGTV!
It only feels appropriate we shared our house with them behind the wheel, since they were the ones who filmed our house’s renovation back in 2016/2017 for our pilot Down to the Studs that premiered on HGTV back in the summer of 2017. It’s crazy to think that was six years ago. What is time anymore?
Anyway, in the tour we tell the story of our house, how I grew up here and how we bought it back, and show almost every room (with the exception of a few that we couldn’t show because they were in no way shape or form ready for cameras), explaining along the way the story behind every one. It was such a fun, exhausting day, and I love that we can finally see what we filmed all those months ago. We didn’t get to see any of the footage until it aired, which happened to be on the day of PJ’s accident, so we ended up watching our house tour from the emergency room. Life is kind of funny sometimes, isn’t it?

DIY Project: How to Give a Vase Texture and Patina
/
I don’t think I will ever get over PJ and his DIY skills.
Remember how I mentioned he completed a couple of weekend projects a few days ago? One of them was taking a plain old ceramic vase and giving it some character by adding texture and patina with everyday household products like spackle. It took no time at all and now it sits in our guest room and looks so good against the green walls.
You can see how he made it in this one minute video, if you want!!
