Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

When we made the decision to purchase new windows for our home, we knew that we would not take any shortcuts. So, I reached out to Renewal by Andersen and scheduled an in home consultation. I thought that we would schedule a few consultations with other companies to compare, however, after meeting with the Renewal…

We literally worked on this laundry room this time last year and I thought that perhaps I was done with it… at least for a while. Well… we got new flooring on our first floor and once those floors were in I knew this space needed to change again. Now obviously, we don’t typically makeover…

I can hardly believe that it has been over four months since we completed our DIY deck project with Barrette Outdoor Living! It feels like we finished it up yesterday, but that it has also just always been a part of the house. I wanted to follow back up and give our opinion on the…

*This post includes affiliate links.  The half bathroom is basically done and I love it! I started this project around this time last year with a completely different mood board and plan. As I got into it, I quickly realized that I was not going to be a fan of the outcome, so I stopped.…

I have been attempting to dream up plans for our backyard space for the past couple of years to no avail. For some reason, I just could not figure out how to configure the space in a way that would give us everything we wanted and needed that would still be aesthetically pleasing. We worked…
