If you have a dream of starting a homestead, this post is for you! We will give you some insight into modern homesteading.

Sharing about our DIY barn extension and phases we are living in!

Pouring a concrete slab yourself can be a big money-saver or big mistake. We show you the best techniques and tools so you get concrete forms right the first time.

We removed the orange tone from our exposed beams and now they look amazing!. See how we did it using pickling stain and no sanding!

Learn how to make your own lily pond using a stock tank. Lily ponds are their own beautiful self-contained little ecosystem and they make a great addition to your yard or garden.

We are beyond excited to share that our DIY stone backsplash in the second space in our house is completed! This stunning rock wall is in our entryway. Read the tutorial on how to make your dream stone backsplash!

We updated the shop in our newly renovated barn with cabinets and lights. There simple updates we ordered online and were easy to assemble. Come see!

I have been sharing all about our barn progress on instagram I did not want to forgot to share some progress pictures of the project!

This week on the homestead we are framing our phase 2 addition. Now that the slab is complete and has cured, it is time to start building the shell. Follow along on our journey!

This week was a big week! We had a few surprises right before concrete was poured. A mix of California power outages, hospital stay for our little girl joining the family, extreme winds and finally our concrete pad was poured!
