Such a creative woman! She's made a spectacular home! This is the epitome of making a silk purse out of a sow's ear! Beautifully done.

I don't think that anyone could feel uncomfortable coming into your home Kate, you are the brightest light in your beautiful home. Also I need a Mike. My husband is a DIY nightmare. Our children named him "no hands", because he's no longer allowed to touch anything. Stay awesome Kate.

This is hands down one of the best episodes on this channel! Thanks for having a modern example for once. It doesn't always have to be maximalists or traditional or "crafty" type examples.

Very talented couple. It's amazing what they have accomplished in this home. It is a perfect example of a modern family home. Well done! 👏👏👏👏👏👍😊

What a lovely and amazing uniquely beautiful home you and your husband have recreated just for your family. Congratulations!

Very handsome! Nice mix of industrial and modern "log cabin", warm and cold, and some very clever recycling. Bravo!

It’s nice and clean looking now, but I loved that stained glass in the original kitchen! Edit: OMG, the kid’s hide out! That’s fantastic, I wanted more time in there! Second edit: this woman is a genius. I absolutely love how meaningful every nook and cranny has become. The espresso stain is also moody and comforting, what a view.

Love it! I did the same with my old house in Burlington VT. Makes me think I really do need to share what I’ve done with others. Thank you

Omg 😍 in love with this home 🏡. She is creative and wonderful and her story about the bobby pin room is awesome.

[BarestTruths]

Oh my goodness! I had a period of time where I felt like I was being followed by Bobby pins and everyone thought I was losing it and I started to think I was losing it! 😂

Very talented! Sophisticated cosy home. Great space for the whole family to enjoy.

[dusdinallen]

This is an excellent example of good taste + talent. Well done!

I would not feel just comfortable in that home. I would feel excited, artistically stimulated, shocked and delighted. Even the kids spaces are vibrant and fun. I think the best results come out of layering and this wonderful home proves it.

You are a DIY queen. The entry way large wood art is particulary great looking. I would like to see your lake house in the summer. Houses tell you when to add a piece or change something you already have. Continue your design journey.

She's so vivacious. Love house inside, out.

Love this! What a great sense of style. But what about the husband who is apparently a super talented carpenter, electrician, etc.!
