One of the most overlooked design decisions in a tile project is also one of the most important: how do you end the tile?
Spend five minutes on design Instagram and you'll probably hear that the only acceptable options are mitered edges or stone trim. We love both of those solutions and use them often, but they're not always the right fit for every space or every budget.
As we're updating Mom's house, we're actually using three different termination details. In the kitchen, we're mitering the zellige backsplash for a clean, seamless finish. In one upstairs shower, we found a beautiful pencil molding tile. In the other, we're using Schluter trim.
Could we have used mitered tile everywhere? Sure. But great design isn't about applying the same solution to every room. It's about understanding the options, evaluating the space, and making thoughtful decisions that balance beauty, function, and budget.
That's why we created this graphic. The more you know about the details, the more confidently you can make decisions for your own home. There is rarely only one "right" answer in design. There are simply different solutions for different situations.
Which tile option is your favorite?

Hospitality can change the world. ❤️
Not in a giant, headline-making kind of way, but in the way a backyard barbecue, a Fourth of July gathering, or a simple dinner with friends can make someone feel seen, heard, and loved.
These are a few of the parties on our summer hospitality bucket list, and honestly, the mood boards are the easy part. The brave part is actually sending the text, inviting people over, opening the door, and letting your home be lived in.
So this is your sign to host the party.
Use the pretty plates. Make the recipe. Gather the family. Invite the neighbors. Summer goes by too fast to wait for everything to be perfect.
Comment VIDEO and I'll send you a link to our latest YouTube video where we're chatting all things hospitality and sharing the parties we plan to host this summer, including a vintage Americana Fourth of July celebration.

We’re so excited to start sharing more of the behind-the-scenes details that bring these projects to life.
Today was countertop installation day, and while most people focus on the stone selection, there are so many other decisions that shape the final design. Beyond choosing between quartzite, marble, granite, and more, every installation requires thoughtful planning. Where will the stone be used? Will there be ledges? How high should the backsplash go? What edge profile works best? Where will seams fall? Should we incorporate an apron-front sink?
In this project, we’re even carrying the stone onto the ceiling of the stove alcove.
The lighter stone is Bianco Superior Quartzite, and the darker stone is Madeirus Quartzite. Every detail has been carefully considered, and we can’t wait to show you the finished result.

Sometimes posting a pretty picture on Memorial Day feels small compared to the weight of what this day truly means.
No tablescape, gathering, or celebration could ever fully represent the gratitude we have for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom 🇺🇸
But maybe the gathering itself is the reminder. The freedom to slow down, share a meal, laugh with family, and create memories together exists because of the brave. It’s not just a long weekend.
Today we remember and honor those who gave everything for our country. May we never forget.
One of our favorite places to source furniture and decor isn't a showroom — it's Facebook Marketplace. The character, the patina, the story that comes with a piece someone else already loved... none of it comes in a box. Here's a little behind the scenes of Mom teaching us her methods (she has methods) 😂 Comment FB and we'll send you the full video. We can't wait to hear your best find.

I wanted to give you a peak inside one of our current projects! We're a mother-daughter studio designing kitchens, baths, whole-home renovations and new builds across the Dallas area.
Swipe through for a peek at a kitchen we're finishing right now — the Eckert Residence. It walks through how we run a project: every wall drawn before demo, every finish chosen before the trades show up, 1,000 decisions narrowed down to a few that are actually yours. So designing your home stays the fun part, the way it's supposed to be.
We offer consultations every Friday and would love to learn about your project! Comment DESIGN SERVICES for service details.
Mom’s bedroom is painted in Sherwin Williams Shoji White. It’s creamy, warm, and somehow it never tips into yellow.
But here’s the thing about Shoji you have to know: it doesn’t always behave the same twice. We just used the exact same color for an entire downstairs on a current project and it reads completely different than it does in this room. It’s not as pigmented in our project than it is at mom’s. I actually have this color on my exterior and it reads much brighter.
This is why we tell everyone to sample paints on more than one wall and look at it in the morning, at noon, and again at golden hour. White undertones shift more than most people expect, and the only real way to know how a color will live in your house is to live with the swatch for a few days.
Shoji made our list when we rounded up nine of our favorite creamy paint colors in a recent video. Comment SHOJI and we’ll send you the full list — including the ones we’d reach for if Shoji isn’t quite right for your space.
While this space isn’t technically a powder bath since it has a shower it does function as one for us! Powder baths are where we stop apologizing — small, brief, the one room in the house that can afford to task risks. This wallpaper from made the case the second it went up. What we didn’t expect was that it would set the entire mood for the guest room next door. We’re sharing the guest room in our YouTube video Thursday along with our favorite tips for shopping FB Marketplace. I can’t wait to share.
