Happy weekend! We have some exciting news: we’re officially in contract to buy the home we’ve been renting here in Montclair, in the Oakland Hills for the last year! It’s been a crazy last few months trying to figure it all out after finding out the owners were wanting to sell. I put all my decorating and organizing on hold (so you can image the clutter that piled up around here), and we jumped head first into house hunting every weekend, making offers, weighing our options, and in the end we decided to purchase the home we’ve been in. And we’re feeling really excited about it! My head is swimming with projects and plans including a new studio space here. You’ll probably hear lots more about them in the weeks and months to come. With all the house hunting going we haven’t been up to Tahoe much at all the last few weeks, so thinking of heading up there this weekend. Have a great one, here are some links to explore:
