Ep. 466: Trials and Triumphs
Notas do episódio
We are back for a long-overdue "Trials & Triumphs" episode! It has been a hot minute since Caroline, Taryn, and Liz sat down to share their personal home updates, but they have plenty of stories to catch up on.
Caroline gives a highly anticipated update on her daughter Birdie's room and shares a hilarious PSA about why you should always check your pockets before doing laundry. Plus, the ladies discuss the convenience of plug-in lighting and how to update a space without needing to hire an electrician.
Quick Decorating & Homeowner Takeaways:
The Big Girl Bed Transition: Caroline shares that they finally received Birdie's new bed (which features a handy trundle!). It’s been a great success, and she emphasizes how proud kids get when they have a space that feels like their own "big kid" room.
The Magic of Plug-In Sconces: If you need extra lighting but don't want to hire an electrician or tear into your drywall, plug-in sconces are the way to go. Caroline recommends plug-in swingarm wall sconces (specifically mentioning some great finds from Lamps Plus) as an easy, stylish solution.
Laundry PSA: Always check your pockets! Caroline learned the hard way that accidentally washing a fish oil vitamin will leave your entire load of laundry smelling terribly.
