We’ve shared a lot about the move, but this next chapter is about what comes after. The messy middle and the part where we start creating again.
Our new house in Tennessee is officially under renovation, and we’re bringing you behind the scenes! Every step, every decision, every layer. This home will be a space where we can show more of what we do day-to-day: the design process, our approach to renovating, and the details that make a house feel like a home.
Client projects are still the heart of what we do, but home renovations have always been the other side of our story. From #HighDesertTumaloRanch to this new #SixthStreetBungalow home, we’ve learned that the process matters just as much as the final reveal.
We’ll be sharing more here and even deeper tutorials and stories over on YouTube (link in bio- our first video for this project will be hitting our channel soon). From design breakdowns to sourcing tips to the real BTS that doesn’t make it to Instagram.
Here’s to new beginnings, familiar chaos, and a home that is inspiring + testing us all over again.
Comment ‘LINKS’ and l’ll send you the best faux magnolia on the market (IMO).
We just moved, so my usual decor stash is slim (I’m knee deep in demo and boxes!), but when I’m in a pinch I will lie magnolia branches together down the center of a table for instant ambience and a festive touch.
l’ve rounded up the best of the best faux magnolia garlands for you to get this look throughout the season.
Drape on the mantel, sweep a banister, frame a mirror, or run down the table with a few tapers… done!

The bunk room at our Sun Valley Saddle House project is officially taking shape! Painting is done, carpet is in, and it’s finally starting to feel like the cozy retreat we envisioned (next up, wallpaper!).
What’s the single hottest tip for making a space feel cozy? Color drenching!
We color-drenched the walls and ceiling in @farrowandball Stifkey Blue, and layered in @stantoncarpet “Tattersall” which instantly warmed up the space. There’s something about that moody, cave-like feel that just works up here in the mountains.
We love designing bunk rooms because they’re where form meets function… practical for families or guests, but also the perfect opportunity to get a little fun and funky with color and pattern. This one’s already giving us movie night + ski weekend vibes.
So much is happening at this project right now. Built-ins, lighting, primary suite remodel, custom bar, and furniture deliveries are all in motion, and I can’t wait to share more soon.
The secret to a layered room? A smart book stack.
