Can you really make an air vent disappear into wallpaper?! 👀 
 
I’m about to wallpaper my daughter’s entire bedroom, but first I wanted to tackle this ugly wall vent. 
 
I found this flush-mount vent from Fittes that’s designed to blend right into the wall. And naturally, I had to give it a try! 
 
The installation itself? Pretty straightforward. 
 
The drywall mudding? Let’s just say I won’t be quitting my day job. 😂 
 
After two coats of mud and LOTS of sanding, we’re finally ready for wallpaper primer. 
 
Now comes the real test. Will this vent actually disappear once the wallpaper goes up?! 
 
Stay tuned for Part 2 when I wallpaper right over it!

Quick question: Do you actually know the paint colors in your house? Or the size of your furnace filter? Or when you last had your HVAC serviced? 👀 
 
Because I swear, these are the things we always think we’ll remember...until we actually need that information. 
 
That’s why one of my favorite features of Your Home Playbook is the included digital Home Diary! 
 
It’s a place to keep track of all those important details about your home. Paint colors, appliance information, maintenance records, repairs, and so much more. 
 
No more digging through old emails, searching your camera roll, or trying to remember where you wrote something down. 
 
The book teaches you how to care for your home, and the Home Diary helps you keep track of it all.

The most expensive home repairs often start as little things we didn’t know we were supposed to check. 🏡 
 
A tiny leak. A clogged filter. A maintenance task that keeps getting pushed to the bottom of the to-do list. 
 
And I get it! Nobody hands you an instruction manual when you buy a house. You’re just expected to figure it all out. 
 
That’s exactly why I wrote Your Home Playbook. It’s a month-by-month guide to taking care of your home, with simple tutorials, seasonal checklists, and practical tips to help you stay ahead of problems before they turn into costly repairs. 
 
Because a little preventative maintenance can save you a whole lot of money (and stress!) down the road. 
 
My book comes out January 12, and you can preorder it now!

Your couch might not be the problem…your throw pillows might be. 👀 
 
A few small tweaks can make a HUGE difference: going bigger with your pillows, sizing up your inserts, mixing colors and textures, and layering everything the right way. 
 
And no, you don’t need to buy all new pillows to make your couch look better. Sometimes you just need to work with what you already have a little differently. 
 
I put all of my best throw pillow tips, sizing advice, and styling formulas into one guide. 
 
Comment PILLOWS, and I’ll send it your way!

When was the last time you actually WASHED your bed pillows?! 🫣 
 
Not just the pillowcases, but the actual pillows you sleep on every single night! 
 
Pillows collect sweat, oils, dust, and allergens over time, so giving them a good cleaning is one of those home maintenance tasks you don’t want to skip. 
 
I’m walking you through how I clean mine, and it’s easier than you might think! Just be sure to check your pillow’s care label before tossing it in the wash. 
 
📌 Save this video for your next cleaning day! 
 
And comment CLEAN if you want my step-by-step guides for washing your pillows AND cleaning and rotating your mattress. Time to give your whole bed a little refresh!

Two years in the making, and I finally got to hold MY BOOK in my hands! 🥹📖 
 
I’ve spent the last two years writing, editing, photographing, and pouring so much of myself into these pages. Seeing it all come together in a real, physical book is a moment I’ll never forget. 
 
Your Home Playbook is everything I wish I had known when I became a homeowner. It’s filled with practical tips, step-by-step tutorials, and all the little things that make taking care of your home feel less overwhelming. 
 
I still can’t believe I get to say I’m an author! 😭❤️

I shared 4 different ways to style pillows on a king-sized bed in today’s blog post if you need some inspiration. But first, I need to hear where you stand on this debate! 👇
