Ashley At Home: Building Our New Home Q&A Video

It’s been a minute since I’ve shared Ashley At Home updates with you all and we are excited to finally share this Q&A and sneak peek of our home. This video was filmed back in July, so there’s been a ton of updates since, but I know a few of you wanted to see progress photos and had a few questions that we address in the video. Can’t wait to share more of the progress! 

A few quick notes: 

I’ve learned I need to brush my hair before any on-camera appearances. Should be a given but clearly, it wasn’t.

I should really stop saying “guys”.

And if you can get past that, I hope you enjoy!

Also, we will be sharing all home details (paint, floor color, etc.) this spring once we officially get settled in. Can’t wait to show you the finished product. xx Ashley + Austin

    […] Building a home was one of the most rewarding (exhausting, but rewarding nonetheless) experiences, especially since we finished up in time to bring George home to it. But there’s something really fun about having a fixer-upper or a home that just needs a good polish. I’ve lived in spaces like this before and even now I’m always thinking up little projects here and there. Whether it’s with seasonal decor, a small painting project or throwing down a new rug, there are endless ways to spruce up a space without having to break out the sledgehammers. […]
