More home updates coming your way! This time, it’s about one of my favorite spaces in the house… our backyard!
I’ve mentioned this a couple times, but throughout my home renovation journey I’ve been working with Marie Flanigan. Marie and I met over Instagram almost a year ago, and she was interested in helping me with some projects for our new house.
When we first started talking, I was pregnant and shortly after had Sonny, so she couldn’t have come at a better time in my life! With a new baby, I had a ton on my plate and Marie helped me with a ton with designing my home.

After renovating the kitchen, the outdoor space was my next priority. Initially, our backyard was overgrown and definitely needed a good clean up. I knew I wanted to take advantage of the space and make it a little sanctuary of my own, so we decided to partner with Serena & Lily.Their stuff is casual yet refined, and has a touch of California style that I love! Although I love decorating, I wanted to give Marie and her team artistic freedom with the project. In the end, I couldn’t have been happier because it was exactly what I wanted – white, clean, and tan with modern wood accents!
