If I’ve failed to say it outright, let me fix that now: Your house is not going to look *just like you want it to* overnight.

Video Tour of Arkansas Home {And Amazon!!!!!!}
A few weekends ago I was in Arkansas and spontaneously made a Facebook LIVE video of the house we just left. It is terrifying to make a video in general, but a live video … I have to really throw all my inhibitions away! If you ever saw the separate tours of that house and wondered […]
