We moved into Willow House in May 1998 🤍

Over the years, I’ve learned which design choices stand the test of time…
and which ones I’d do differently today.

This year, I’m sharing real design lessons from living here for 25+ years —
so if you’re a new homeowner, you don’t have to make the same mistakes.

This is the beginning of my Do As I Say, Not As I Did series.
Follow along for honest design advice, lessons learned, and real-life remodels ✨

If you just bought a house, this is your permission slip.

You don’t need to renovate everything at once.
Live in your home first and learn what actually matters.

Some of our biggest design regrets came from rushing decisions we didn’t need to make yet.

Save this if you’re a new homeowner. 💕✨

Curtain mistake we fixed after 20 years.

Twenty years ago, we hung these bedroom curtains right above the molding.

Now they’re hung high and wide, and the whole room feels taller, brighter, and more finished.

If your room feels off, this is one of the easiest fixes you can make.
Save this before you hang curtains.

Curtains are from @potterybarnkids

Apparently this is controversial 😅
Over or under?

Bathroom trend from 20 years ago that still gets questions today.

Decorative tile borders were everywhere when we renovated.

The subway tile itself held up well — I just wish it ran through the entire shower.

Subway tile is timeless, but how you use it matters.
And classic white will always be in style.

Save this if you’re planning a bathroom renovation 💕✨
