Typically, on a big reveal day, I feel content. I love reflecting on each project. It is so satisfying to finish 100% of a room renovation. However, today's post is a little different. Despite all of my effort, I did not finish the cabinet under the sink. I built and painted the doors, but after…

This post is a partnership with Cutting Edge Stencils Before I launch into my stenciling-turned-brainteaser story, I want to write a few words about why we chose to stencil an accent wall in the first place. For nearly three years, Andy and I have removed wallpaper from BHH. It is a hot and messy job that leaves…
