My fiance Matt & I purchased this suburban ranch back in November. Since then, we’ve slowly worked to make it feel like home. We believe that we can create a comfortable and homey space…without breaking the bank.

 Therefore, much of what you see is a do-it-yourself project or thrift store find. Even though we live far from an ocean, we want this space to have a nautical and coastal feel to it, so we’re striving to keep it open, light, and breezy. 

Thanks, Bridget & Matt!
