Starting a brand new series and I couldn’t be more excited. 🎉 

Welcome to DIY House Call, where I teach some of my favorite people practical DIY skills they can actually use. 

Episode 1 takes me to my friend Christina’s absolutely gorgeous home, where we’re tackling one of the easiest projects with the biggest impact: caulking those not-so-pretty seams. (Seriously... can we take a moment for her house?! 😍) 

There were plenty of laughs, a few dance breaks, and hopefully one more confident DIYer by the end. 

What DIY skill should we tackle on the next House Call?

Seven years in this house... and what a ride it’s been.

There have been renovations, DIY weekends, decorating mistakes, and countless little projects along the way. While I’ll never consider our home “finished” (I’m always finding something to tweak!), every room has finally reached a place that feels like *us*.

It’s proof that creating a home you love doesn’t happen overnight…it happens one project at a time.

Comment HOME and I’ll send you all the room reveals, project links, and details for every space.

Over the last 13 years, I’ve shared thousands (and I mean thousands) of DIY projects. 

One of my favorite parts of this job is hearing from someone who used one of my tutorials to tackle a project they never thought they could do themselves. 

If you’re looking for your next weekend project, I rounded up 80+ of my favorite DIYs all in one place. 

Comment DIY, and I’ll send you the full list, plus all of the free step-by-step tutorials!
