Is your kitchen stuck in the 90’s? Haven’t had the time or the know-how to give your cooking area a face-lift? Don’t even know where to start? We’ve got the answer for you: start with the kitchen cabinets. Your cabinets are the focal point of your kitchen, and the design and feel of the cabinets are what pulls the whole room together. Creating a de...

You spend meaningful time in your kitchen, making meals for you and your family or friends. It’s the hub of your house. And chances are, it could use a little update. The kitchen is the most popular room to renovate. So why not renovate yours? Before you start getting down to the details let’s talk about the big picture. If you’ve never put a lot o...

You do some of your best work in the shower. How often have you been standing there, and thought, wow, that’s the best idea I’ve ever had? For providing you with all those exceptional shower thoughts and moments, you should give your shower some thanks. Maybe it’s old and outdated. Maybe it’s just time for a change. Maybe you’re unhappy with the st...

You’re always stepping all over them. Your kitchen and bathroom floors deserve some respect. Maybe they’re in dire need of an update. Old, grimy tiles or washed out, warped wood? Yeah, that’s not the stylish look you are going for!  Take that dirty rug off your floor you’ve been using to hide your tiles, and get renovating. You’ll be glad you did.

Your kitchen is where people gather. It’s where people come to talk about their day, and, most importantly, eat. Like it or not, your kitchen says a lot about you. Is it saying what you want it to say? Bring out the color in your kitchen. Maybe it’s already the color scheme you’re going for, and you want to know what image you’re showing off to the...

On average, people spend thirty-seven minutes of their day in the kitchen. If you’re a guy, you spend a little less time. If you’re a girl, you spend almost an hour. And if you’re someone who really, really loves to eat, you probably spend even more time than that. Especially if it’s where your family usually gathers to eat meals, the kitchen is on...

How long have you had your fridge? The answer is probably: too long.

Your bathroom is called a bathroom. Sounds obvious, right? But how is the actual bath in your bathroom? If your bath is neglected, you’re not taking full advantage of all your bathroom has to offer.

What’s a room in your house that gets neglected? Hopefully, you didn’t say all of them. But if you think about it, you might not actually pay much attention to your laundry room. You do probably spend a lot of time there, though. Maybe your laundry room is near your kitchen. Maybe it’s near your bathroom. Wherever it is, you might think of it as ju...

There is nothing that can breathe fresh life into a room quite as powerfully as a new fresh coat of paint.

Here’s how to put a finger on what color’s ...

You’ve dreaded this moment since the day you started hearing Christmas music playing way too early. You know it’s coming. The day you have to host a holiday party. And you’re not ready.

When you think of a modern kitchen or bathroom, you might think of clean lines, streamlined appliances, minimal decoration, neutral color tones, and efficiency.

When the leaves start to shake off the trees and the weather starts to cool down, you know it’s time for the fall season to start. Especially when everything everywhere you go is pumpkin flavored. You’ll want to spend more time in your house, cozy and relaxing. But that won’t work if your house isn’t, in fact, cozy and relaxing.

And with the variety of lighting available today, deciding on lighting is just as important as choosing your kitchen cabinets, countertops and applian...

It’s out with the old, and in with the new. Especially around New Years. If your New Years resolution is to remodel, then you’ve come to the right place. Here’s the trends you need to ditch in the new year, and a little bit of what you might consider using instead.  

The beginning of the year is a time to reflect on the past months and see how far you come, and see where you want to go. If you’re planning on setting goals, it’s hard to think when you’re feeling cluttered and stressed.  The state of our homes affects us more than we might think. A messy house means a messy mind. And where do we spend a lot of ti...
