About Us

Hey there! We’re two sisters (Dee and Nikki) sharing our misadventures in life and home renovation. Dee lives in the midwest in a rancher (soon to be two-story house) and Nikki lives on the east coast in a two-story Dutch colonial. Dee is doing a full house renovation all at once, and Nikki is gradually fixing up her house, one project at a time. We hope you enjoy reading, and thanks for stopping by!

I finally had some time to work on our dining room area (and share the updates we made 🤣). I'm loving how this space is shaping up. I'm also loving having my living room closet back and some framed photos on the wall, which I'm also sharing on the blog this week. Next up, installing a FIREPLACE in the living room (exciting for obvious reasons...)😁🤗 #etmcblog #midwestsisterprojects #homereno #renovation #diy #decor #diyhomedecor #diningroom #diningroomdecor #entrywaydecor #entryway

Nikki here! 👋 Who’s ready for a DIY Christmas ornament idea?! 🎄I made these “mistletoes” last year and love how they turned out!! Swipe👈 to see some process pictures and check out today’s blog post (link in profile✨) for the full tutorial! Anyone else like giving a few handmade gifts for the holidays? Confession: I always make an extra one for myself! 😂 . . . #etmcblog #eastcoastsisterprojects #eastcoastsisterhouse #diy #diycrafts #diyornaments #diymistletoe #handmade #christmas #christmasdecor #myinteriorstylefile #whitewash #whitewashbrick #fireplace #christmasmantle #mytargetstyle #myhomegoodsbuy

“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas...” 🎶 Love this time of year! ☺️😍🎄This is our 3rd Christmas in this house, and 3rd spot we’re trying our tree out. Think this is my favorite spot because it gets to shine on it’s own (not competing with bookshelves behind it like the last 2 spots 👌). Hope you’re enjoying the first day of December! 🤗 . . . #eastcoastsisterhouse #christmas #christmasdecor #christmastree #fireplace #dogsofinstagram #builtins #fireplacemantel #rugsusareveal #rugsusa #simplecozynest
