But, if you choose the right people to work with and have the right attitude, your project can be exciting and fun rather than miserable. I wrote an article for American Farmhouse Style magazine about how to choose a contractor to help give you some ideas on how ... View Post

Kitchen Cabinets…Should You Paint or Replace Them?

September 3, 2019 By Holly Thompson Leave a Comment

Painting kitchen cabinets brings me way back to our days of renovating our first home, a 1925 bungalow we owned in Spokane, WA. It had original cabinets, which had been painted pinkish-beige by the previous homeowner. I chose a new color scheme for the kitchen, which I had found on an inspiration card at Sherwin Williams. The only problem was that it was an exterior color scheme meant for a ... View Post

Our New Space

December 12, 2018 By Holly Thompson 1 Comment

The countdown has begun...we have less than a week to go in our current space before moving to Historic Downtown Franklin!  On Monday the phones and internet will be transferred and our kitchens will be installed, which means I need to figure out where they're going asap as well as choose the paint colors for the walls behind (now some of the walls are mustard-colored).
