About

Join me and my little family as we add life to our starter house and create a home along the way.

hand gathered home blog about me

Hi, I’m Alleigh!

I’m the wife of an amazingly supportive husband and mom of a sweet baby boy, Miles.

I grew up in a small town in Ohio where my parents renovated a 1902 colonial style house. It had to have been at that point in my life that I grew to love old, pretty things and transformation.

I watched as my parents fixed up every corner of that cute, old house. Little did they know, they were setting an example for me as to what a home really is.

Sometimes I wonder if my dad regrets setting that example for me, when I’m listing off my lengthy list of house projects that I need his help with 😉 All kidding aside, my dad has taught me almost everything I know, when it comes to projects. At the same time, I have so much to learn from him still. I’m blessed that he’s so willing to drop everything and help me so often.

A few things you should know about me…

  • I paint (almost) everything white.
  • I want land and a farmhouse some day, for space for my kids to run, play and just be kids (but for now I just pretend)
  • I have a list of projects 3 miles long that I hope to accomplish someday. One thing at a time (or 10).

Thank you so much for stopping by our home.

I’m so glad you’re here.

 

Follow along for ideas, how to’s and inspiration, as we make our little house a home.

 

xoxo Alleigh

Sometimes I miss our old house, because it felt so Sometimes I miss our old house, because it felt so much more put together than our current house. Projects with a toddler and a baby are no joke. But so worth it once they’re done 🙌🏼 working on getting back in the groove of sharing projects over here. I have a few up my sleeve that I’m excited to share soon 🙃

Such a fun project I got to work on this last month. Couldn’t have done it without my fam being all hands on deck ❤️❤️ Just waiting on the bed frame to come in!
Just in case you didn’t realize that paint alone Just in case you didn’t realize that paint alone could make a transformation like this. With some paint and a paint brush, you can practically change your whole house. Stay tuned for more ideas on how to use paint to change just about everything 🙃
This year. 2022. The year for me to majorly declut This year. 2022. The year for me to majorly declutter and purge my house. I’ve always loved @thenester but for some reason her book, Cozy Minimalist Home, is hitting me different this time. I’m currently knee deep in figuring out how to get more style with less stuff. Anyone else big into that?? 🙋🏽‍♀️ Excited to see where it takes me!
