Gretchen thank you all for showing colors furniture are so beautiful cool ?
Guys what do you think about vlogs Gretchen?
Use your old granite for a custom bar in the backyard!!!
They should totally do that!! Great idea!
I was thinking the same thing or they can donate it to Habitat for Humanity. To many people throw away good counters, cabinets, lights. And fixtures that take up space in landfills.
personally I like just the woven rug alone! I think the two rugs look a bit cluttered and the woven looks cleaner/matches the vibe more. House is lookin good!
I so agree 🤍
Don’t be so afraid of color! It’s adds personality and a welcoming vibe
Do like a jute woven basket that can just sit at the bottom of the stairs to hold ur shoes, it can also serve as a catch all for things u need to carry upstairs when ur cleaning up. Way better than having to run upstairs to put each individual item away and can hold ur clutter when ur lazy :)
yessss I love this !!!
@@GretchenGeraghty7 you could even get one with a lid so it hides the clutter :)
everyone stop what ur doing !! Gretchen uploaded
I love this era of your life!! You’re literally glowing and look so so happy❤ I’m so happy for you 💕💕
i just redid my kitchen and went with perla venata quartzite with my white cabinets and gold finishes. i love the natural look to the quartzite and the shine from the polish! you cant get that effect with quartz and it looks super manmade without it. as long as you get the quartzite sealed, you will be all good. i havent had any problems and i loveeee it. taj mahal looks just like perla venata if they have that. i also loved the mix of warm/cool tones.
I think the layered rug look was so cute!! Love your vids recently 😊
Taj Mahal is my personal favorite and is so timeless in my opinion. Marble is also timeless but it reminds me of everyone else's house.
If you need to better envision the look, Pinterest will be your best friend.
So glad you linked the revolve and everlane outfit because I was gonna ask anyways!! Sooo cute! 🤍
Max’s face when you’re talking about the rugs is so funny he’s like I’m just here for the ride
Quartzite is beautiful and Quartz definitely looks man-made. I went with Quartz because it’s low maintenance, less expensive, and still gave me the look I want! I got Silestone Calacatta Gold- it’s a nice mix between warm and cold with both grey and gold veining!
Gretchen and Max your house is beautiful. Love watching how you decorate it. BEST WISHES!!!!!!!
ALL THE COUNTERTOPS OMGGG😍 theres no way i would be able to make a decision haha theyre all so pretty. So happy for you Gretchen 💕
"like i made a pasta salad today, im such a grown up"
"this outfit feels 26...... ew i cant believe im 26, just grossed me out" SUCH A MOOD lmaoo
My parents just built a new house and they fell in love with a stunning marble, so they went with it and got extra thick sealant.
Marble is the most beautiful and imo it's generally worth the look. Though, they don't have little kids or anything, which might be a consideration for your future.
Its easy to care for day to day in terms of just wiping it with plain water or stone cleaner, and they just use a towel and cutting board whenever they are cutting lemons or something.
Everything’s gorg 🤩 you should go for a cool statement countertop for the upstairs bar!
house is gorgeous!! love u both
Gretchen we had taj mahal quartzite in our condo and absolutely LOVED it. Very easy to maintain and was the perfect balance of warm and cool tones. It's a great choice
I'm not a countertop expert, but I do have experience with granite countertops. Granite has never been my favorite in terms of looks (all the granite countertops I've had have been very dark colors and I like light & bright), but definitely has my vote in terms of wear! It always looks clean and is so durable that you can cut food directly on it! I don't even own any cutting boards because they're completely unnecessary. I hope this is helpful:)
I love the way your bedroom is coming together.
This house is gorgeous!
I have Quarzite and its beautiful and has never scratched or chipped! its perfect!
If it would fit you should do one of the slim shoe storage cabinets by the door! I love mine and I love that it’s inconspicuous. So many on wayfair!
You should get the hanging wicker lamps for your master side tables (The ones like Danielle has in her NYC apartment). Also maybe order a third side table in your guest room and see if it’s the right color you wanted and send the one back that isn’t in that box) 😉💗
The white shorts outfit is suupppeeeer cute 😍very Cape Cod
Uploaded at the perfect time!
Just renovated myself, making these decisions was the most traumatizing thing of my life so watching you do it with joy is healing something in me
I LOVE THIS 🤩🤩🤩
we're buying our first home right now and they recommended we do quartz for the countertops since they're more maintainable/durable!
Quartz is what I went with, affordable, gorgeous, and low maintenance!
Granite, quartz, etc can look very beautiful. But if you do decide to do marble you can get it sealed which means it will be protected. But not sure how often you would have to do that. And love the oatmeal textured fabric you picked out for the cushions
Quartz for me! I have it in my 3 bathrooms, kitchen, outdoor kitchen and wet bar… LOVE
I have white quartz counter tops and you have to be very careful about certain things that can stain them 😏 I’ve had them for about a year and have one stain from something I didn’t wipe up right away. The other downside to quartz is that high heat can damage them, so I got a trivet to put under my air fryer when I use it! Just some things to keep in mind.
Hi Gretchen good morning happy Saturday morning and happy weekend and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
I have the same wallet, sooo cute & useful!
Wow the Taj Mahal is so beautiful!! Reminds me of the Pinterest kitchens 😍
a day bed would be perfect on the top level, you can put cushions so you can sit on it like a couch but an extra sleeping space if needed
Upstairs I would definitely put a little circle table by the bar so you can sit and play games, etc. It could be nice to even put your office up there somehow?
I have quartz! White and gray and I have messy kids! We’ve spilled red on them, other messes and they clean so easily. We’ve also cut on them and no scratches! Love quartz
Quartz can give you the same exact look and feel as marble except with better durability and wear! My moms hobby is purchasing and selling homes (lol I know) and her last house she bought super pretty marble with gold shimmer throughout it and although it was super pretty and she kept good care of it, she was hyper vigilant about caring for it. Her next 2 homes she stuck with quartz bc she really loves the look of it and its soo much easier to take care of :)
Quartz all the way!!!
You should get Cambria counter tops! They are quartz, beautiful, and amazing quality!
You should do the pull out chair from ikea for the third floor! It’s white and comfy and your style- and it pulls out into a single bed! With two up there would be a great spot for guests!
Gretchen, you can ask the upholsterer to make it a cover you can zip on and off to wash!
Some blueish pillows would super pretty on the couch to go with the rug!
Can you link the tennis shoes-New Balance?
Under the stairs, is that dead space. Maybe you could get someone to make a built in pull out drawer system for yr shoes. Just an idea xxx
Gretchen my brother works in Marble. You should see some of the beautiful varieties he has. There's even transparent ones. All natural. Isn't it amazing?!
Have you considered building a custom shelving drawer system under the stairs. You would have to rip up your shiplap but that would be hidden storage, and you can make it cute looking.
Those white shorts are so cute. The bedside tables do you have to put glass on top to stop them getting dusty/dirty or can they wipe clean?
Get corian!!! Easy to maintain and heat resistant!!! 🙂
Wayfair has some really cool beachy looking shoe storage cabinets for by the door
Taj Mahal or iceberg are the 2 most popular ones now days. Cant go wrong with either if your budget allows
Quartzite!! It’s bougie and durable
Where is that 3rd floor rug from? Love it!!!!
Thinking about your shoe storage issue; could you build a cubby under your stairs? You could open up that area and add a cute little door or make it seamless.
We got granite because it’s easier to take care of and it’s pretty light/white
My daughter has quartz on her island and countertops. It is so easy to keep clean.
You need a square rug for the 3rd floor. Trust! It’ll be perfect
“Where do they find them? The center of the earth?”😂😂😂
I like the woven basket night stands but i agree, one is not "natural" color will they exchange
Gorgeous outfit!! What size did you get in the shorts??
If you head back to LeaMar, here are three options in each category our designers suggested for your kitchen. Marble - White Rhino, Quartzite - La Dolce Vita, Quartz - Allianza caldia extra polished, has browns and grays
Buy a large wicker basket with a lid and put your shoes in the basket!
My parents had white marble growing up and it was always an ordeal with sealing and staining so easily.. I’d personally never again after dealing with it
You could search for a very narrow “hall tree” to have by the front door, or store most of your shoes by the garage entrance
We have granite in our kitchen which is easy to clean and very durable and marble in our bathroom which I HATE! They are pretty but are impossible to keep clean. You basically have to baby them and clean anything off immediately or water and oil stains will seep in. They are just impractical for a bathroom.
living room situation: i'd order a rug like the material of the barstools (like seagrass or something like that) :)
People also throw the smaller rug diagonally when you layer the two rugs!
Eventually y'all can make storage under the stairs! Make pull out closet or walk in storage
What are you thinking for backsplash? Tile or bring the counter slab up on the walls too?! 😃
at first we were thinking bring the counter up on the walls & now we’re thinking backsplash, I feel like it could look more beachy that way!
Where is that dresser from in your closet that you had a task rabbit build?
you could get a shoe cabinet and keep it by the mirror or by the front door
You should put your desk on the third floor and do another seating area downstairs where the desk is!
I wanted to do that but it won’t fit up the stairs 😭😭 that desk is the size of a dining room table hahaha
@@GretchenGeraghty7you could bring that desk to your new apartment in the fall and get a new, more beachy one for this house! something that will fit up the stairs or needs to be assembled so you can build it up there 😂
quartz is the way to go! i love it :)
Very beautiful and cozy, and You are so cute
Where did you get your big mirror in your living room ?
I live on the cape and used that granite company and it was a nightmare. The girl I was working with there quit. They never told me so I was waiting for week and weeks for communication . I finally had to call them . Even after that it took forever to get my counters. I would look for an alternative in case it doesn’t pan out . I got soapstone counter and I love them but the stress was real girl . Good luck
If there is unused space under the stairs have a pull out hidden drawer for the shoes.
Have you ever thought about entering through the garage? Keeping your shoes there?
Does anyone know which new balances those are? Thank you 🤍
We also ran the same quartz as our countertop on the wall for our backsplash. That may be an idea for you as well!
New Balance 2002R sold at Nordstroms color called concrete
@@susanablin5230 thanks so much!
Where are the lamps from in your second guest room? The stone looking ones
homegoods !
link to nb shoes!
Hey what size rug did you get under your bed? Was it a king size bed?
yes it’s a king & the rug is 8x10 !
Where are the white shorts from close to the end?
Hahahaa love how I posted this right before you told us
do u have a garage u can leave ur shoes near?
I would keep the jute rug solo in your downstairs.
Maybe go one size larger on your rug in your bedroom so the side tables don't hang off?
If you're going to layer the Rugs, then the top needs to be a bit bigger!
Everything is looking great!
I think what you couldnt put your finger on with the rugs is that the shades don't match the coffee table shade as much. I love the look overall
The night stands in the guest room are def different styles, the wicker pattern is circle on one of them and weaved on the other…I’d return one maybe, they def messed up the order
Marble stains super easily. If you accidentally leave a puddle of water on the marble for a little it will stain and leave a dark ring
The rug sitch: it’s the coffee table that’s actually driving you nuts I bet. Not the rugs.
you should put pull the jute rug further out
❤❤❤
Ask the upholsterer to add a zipper so that you can remove the covers for washing.
You guys are in your twenties and bought a beautiful house on the cape. How? I’m 51, been making mid six figures for 15 years and scrapping by to purchase our home in Sandwich!
Rug layering is on the right track. I think the patterned rug is too gray and busy. If it was more tan/beige and distressed printed it wouldn’t stand out as much.
