After what feels like forever, we finally have a new house! We closed today, and I could not be more excited.

While I love the floorpan and location of the house, the inside is not quite my style and lacking some character. But, I’m so ready to get my hands on it and add allllll the millwork. I’m also looking forward to participating in One Rooms Challenges, so make sure to check back for that!

Overall, I want this house to have a different aesthetic than our last one. I want it to be warm, inviting, and not too fussy, with modern elements. Think transitional colonial cottage. For right now—I’m focusing on small stuff. Doorknobs, curtain rods, a few light fixtures, and area rugs for C to play on are on my list. Check out some of my picks and inspiration photos below.
