Welcome
A DIY and home design blog dedicated to transforming builder-grade spaces into warm, layered, and livable homes.
I'm Heather, a Utah-based creator, realtor, and DIY designer obsessed with cozy, timeless interiors that tell a story. What started as a personal renovation diary has grown into a destination for anyone who loves DIY home projects, paint color ideas, and cozy home design that feels elevated yet attainable.
Every project I share is hands-on, budget-conscious, and infused with what I call "warm-hug energy" — the feeling that makes a house truly feel like home.
Whether you're searching for DIY ideas, color palette inspiration, or simple ways to make your home cozier, you'll find practical tips, design breakdowns, and real-life progress here.
Every post is created to inspire, educate, and empower you to build the home of your dreams.
Room makeovers that turn builder-grade houses into cozy, character-filled homes.
Paint color guides and real-home photos to help you choose the perfect warm neutral or modern trim contrast.
DIY tutorials for wall treatments, moulding, and affordable transformations.
Cozycore décor inspiration rooted in comfort, craftsmanship, and personal style.
Because around here, we believe
cozy doesn't make itself
