Many of you have asked for a home tour, and I aim to please. I shot this video on Monday, which is the day of the week when our house is pretty much at it’s cleanest. Note: I said cleanest, not clean. I am not sure with two little boys that our house is ever clean. This Monday it was vacuumed and dusted, which is better than most weeks :)
Throughout the video you will see our floor plan to stay oriented. You might notice there are a few rooms that didn’t make it into the video. It was laundry day…so I skipped showing you my piles of laundry. My husband’s office currently has no furniture in it…definitely a work in progress. And, I inadvertently neglected to film our master bathroom. We’ll get that next time.
I am pretty horrible at walking and talking, so I took the video and then voiced over it. The tour includes the main and second floor of our home. At the end I threw in my basement studio. I plan to wait on the rest of the basement tour (lots off secret projects in the works).

So, tell me, is it different in video? Is it what you expected? I always try my best to capture my home realistically in pictures, but somehow video always comes out more real.
P.S. I am digging a few updates I made to freshen up the blog. A fresh header, my new picture (there’s another new one on my about page), and some pretty new social media icons. I hope you like the new look!
Hey Jackie,
The video is awesome! Good Job. I’m a loyal stalker, I mean fan so I was noticing the blog changes…love them. The colors are awesome and your new picture suits you better. Please keep up the good work:-)
Thanks Patrina!
Wow, amazing! Good job!
You have done an incredible job on your home. Looks gorgeous.
Love the video. It really helps to understand how your house and color scheme works together. I also love the new blog updates.
Jackie,
Thanks for the video. It was really great to see your home with this tour. I see why you picked this floor plan; I totally would have too! Oops, my eighties showed; sorry.

Love it!
Well done on the new blog design and pics!
It was so nice to see your big boys room! And the video helped me to find my bearings in your home, although I got a little lost on the top floor, so I just paused on the floor plan to figure it out :)
So fun seeing the video and putting it all together. Seriously love your home! Can’t wait to see what you suggest for mine!
Thanks Diana. I’ve been working on your mood boards tonight :) They are coming along nicely!
That was so fun! I actually got a better idea of what your new reading chair looks like in your great room. I couldn’t tell from the still pics. I like your new header and pics too. You’ve been such an inspiration to me on my own journey to one day have my own home business.
Oh, Lisa. You are always so sweet. Glad you liked the video tour…it really does help view the space. I can’t believe it took me this long to do one!
Hi Jackie. Your home is lovely, and honestly – that is one of the best home tour videos I have seen!
Very nice job! Video easy to follow and your voice over is perfect amount of info. Very professional.
Great video! Your home is gorgeous and the colors are amazing. Every room suits the other and there is not one thing that jumps right out at you! Very soothing & calm & homey. Comfortable too. I recently started following you and am so impressed by you. Congrats again [I commented on FB about this…!] on the magazine/newspaper articles…very impressed! Thank you for all your inspiration on painting furniture. I bought a $10 coffee table and have it apart painting it!! Thank you again for everything!!!
