Some homes just get you at first sight, and this was one of them. Built in the 1960s on a breathtaking property, this ranch-style home had adobe walls, warm wood details, and incredible outdoor views, but the interiors weren’t quite living up to their potential. The homeowners loved the character of their home, but they needed it to feel more functional, welcoming, and refined.

For the love of sod
This post is made in partnership with Green Acres Nursery & Supply but all opinions are my own. I’m back with some more behind-the-scenes on our backyard renovation! Today we’re talking about grass. Personally, I haven’t always gotten excited about lawns, I leave that to my husband, but upgrading with sod was incredibly satisfying. Having a
