If you’re building or renovating a home, there are dozens of decisions that need to be made long before paint colors, furniture, and decor. The truth is, some of the most expensive mistakes happen before construction even begins 😬

This checklist walks you through the key decisions to think through before you break ground...from layout and storage to lighting, flooring, cabinetry, plumbing fixtures, and all the details that impact how your home will function for years to come.

This is what we’ve dreamed about for a long time. This is what we’ve dreamed about for a long time.

Slow mornings with coffee on the deck...forest views in every direction.. nights by the fire...and a quiet little corner of the Red River Gorge.

Sycamore is opening soon, and we cannot wait to share it with you 🤍

I turned 40 yesterday and it got me thinking… I u I turned 40 yesterday and it got me thinking…

I used to think if life didn’t go according to plan…then somehow I had missed it.

But the older I get, the more I realize…some of God’s best gifts came through the things I never would’ve chosen myself.

The detours.
The waiting.
The doors that closed.
The seasons that felt really quiet.

Meanwhile, He was building something so much better than what I could see at the time.

A family I love more than anything.
A home full of life and chaos and peace all at the same time.
Work that lets me create and connect with people every single day.
Clients all over the country that trust me with their homes…which still feels crazy to say out loud.

And this little community here…I’ll never be able to explain how grateful I am for all of you. Thank you for being here through every chapter!

40 feels really sweet 🤍
My son requested carpet in his new room and I forg My son requested carpet in his new room and I forgot how much wall-to-wall carpet can soften a space. 

This room came together so quickly, but the second the carpet went in… everything changed! I partnered with @riterugflooring and used their Karastan SmartStrand collection.

What I love most is that it’s not just beautiful… it’s built for real life. It has long-lasting stain and soil protection (which matters in a kid’s room), and it’s incredibly soft but still durable enough for everyday use.

They made the whole process really easy, too… from helping choose the right style to installation, and even offering in-home shopping if you need it.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience!
