Finally! I’m so excited to share my master closet with you post-renovation. I’m excited to share the details with you like, why I even took on this project, sources of products, how I organized it and why this was a tough space to design. Why did you build a closet? We knew the first big […]
As you might know, I love my living room. It was the first completed room in #thisoldtudor and it’s our “adult room.” Before we moved in, we skim coated the walls, painted everything, including the moldings, Benjamin Moore “White Dove” (see post here) and then updated the mantel (see post here). Havenly helped me turn […]
So, we’re currently living in our guest bedroom while our master bath/bedroom is being renovated (see our renovation priorities here). It’s temporary but it’s really tight in there. I haven’t done anything to the room and after living here for the past six weeks, I realized the sheets from 2007 need to go. We received […]
As I’ve delved into interiors and started sharing more here on the blog and our living room has been my real pride and joy. I picked out these couches right after we moved in; we had freshly painted walls, the old fireplace (see the before & after here), and all I knew was that I […]

Another day, another decision to be made in #thisoldtudor. Home renovations are stressful yet addicting. And look at that beaut of a bathroom. Sometimes, I can see a room’s potential; but I’m no designer, so much of the time, I can’t. When I saw this bathroom for the first time, I thought, ‘oh dear God, […]
It’s here! Our first somewhat big project in #thisoldtudor. I was really excited to tackle this first floor powder room. It seemed like such a small room and how expensive could it be? Well, let me tell you: it adds up quickly. However, I was able to find some cost savings by finding an extremely […]
As you know (because I post about it on IG stories quite often), we’re slowly making our house a home. And if you’re new to these parts, welcome! To sum it up: we moved to the northern Chicago suburbs (read more about why we did it here). I’ve never given additional context into what we […]
