BLOGIVERSARYYYYYY

April 15, 2020
We celebrated our one year ‘blogiversary’ last week! And like most things on our to do list right now, we’ve been chipping away at this post over the past few days. Our blog began wayyyy back in 2019 when we clicked publish on our very first post entitled “Here’s the Thing” on April 8, 2019. To celebrate the one year anniversary of The Beck Street House, Inc., LLC (Okay, not quite), we thought it would be fun to highlight...

HOLY SHIPLAP

March 27, 2020
We’ve jumped on the shiplap bandwagon. Let us tell you more. We mentioned in our last post that one of our goals for this unexpected four week school closure was to “fix the damn trim,” which referred specifically to our dining room trim. When we first moved in, we had an entire week of snow days (do I ever go to work??), and we jumped on the opportunity to paint our main living area (and we’re still finding bits...

FIX THE DAMN THINGS!

March 15, 2020
Hey look! Another thing on your newsfeed related to COVID-19. Our hope is that this will hopefully be a little bit more fun to read, and maybe lighten the mood a ‘lil bit. Our governor likes to yell “fix the damn roads!” a lot, but we’ve been yelling “fix (or finish) the damn…” a lot lately. Okay, maybe that’s a bit of a stretch, but we do have quite a few projects and things we’re hoping to get done...

ONE YEAR, BABY!

January 15, 2020
“Just south of the river sits “The Beck Street House” – filled with charm and history. Standing tall among the mature maple trees, this home boasts character, texture, design, and simplicity as the owner intended.” We’re back and we’re in much better moods now that our boiler is back up and running and we have hot water again! January 15 is a special day in our hearts, as one year ago today, we official closed on our house, which...

WHEN IN DOUBT…

January 8, 2020
…drop the F bomb. And trust us, we’ve dropped lots of them over the past two weeks. Let us tell you more. It’s been a helluva week around here. It started last Tuesday when Laryssa and I came home to our house a little cooler than usual. We didn’t think much of it as we keep our house pretty cold year round, until we woke up the next morning – New Year’s Day – to this: I...

Having an [almost] finished dining room is seriously the greatest thing. We’ve been working on this room in some way or another for the past two years we’ve lived here, including some window trim we put up, decided a few minutes later that we hated it, and it sat for almost a year 🥴. We splurged and bought our first real dining room set - a beautiful cherry set from a local furniture company [@gaschofurniture] and it definitely completes the space. We’re so darn excited that it has a leaf too. Still on the to do list is figure out some window treatments and switch out the light for something more our style. Oh, and new flooring someday. And house plants. Definitely more house plants.
Here we go again! We want to blog more this year, and we're kicking off 2021 with a post recapping our 2020 (in a really, really long run-on sentence), sharing our goals for The Beck Street House, along with a list of projects (with sarcastic commentary) we're hoping to cross off the list between now and December 31.
Merry Christmas from the Beck Street House! We are obsessed with this original water color painting of our favorite place on Earth from Laryssa’s sister. It’s perfect; right down to Barkley’s one floppy ear and one stiff ear. Merry Christmas!
Our downstairs bathroom..needs some work. We’re really good at half-assing things when it comes to house projects, and we’re planning to half-ass this project too, but on purpose. New blog post is up talking all about the vibe we’re going for, and what we’re planning to do in the space! Link in the bio! #TheBeckStreetHouse
This is by far the best COVID purchase we’ve made so far! Check out our new blog post about our new back yard patio, including a ton of before and after pictures of our new backyard haven! Link in the bio! #TheBeckStreetHouse
We gotta hot date with this color this weekend.

[PS: @joannagaines, we think you got the name wrong; we think Kraft Macaroni and Cheese is more fitting. Which, as a result, inspired us to make mac and cheese for dinner.]
