I read online today that women influence 91% of HO I read online today that women influence 91% of HOME related decisions and purchases. 

That representation is huge when it comes to the building and remodeling industry.  While I'm not shocked by this info, it does further reinforce how cool it is to be a woman in a typically male-dominated category. 

Over the years of working at Sockness Builders, Inc. I've found that my favorite thing to do is sit down and hear about our clients' dreams for their homes and talk through ways to make their house work better for their lifestyle.  I feel pretty lucky that I get to bring that woman/mom approach to the process and that I can relate with that 91%.

I love putting additions like this one on client's homes because of the way that it can totally transform the way a space feels.  If our homeowners walk into their new area and say "how did we ever live without this before?!?" then I know we just made their home work better for them.  And that's the ultimate goal.  Your home should always be a reflection of the way you live in it. 

I have a feeling these guys have some BRIGHTER days in their future! ☀

::: Your little face. It’s different from the fa ::: Your little face. It’s different from the face I once knew. It’s changing from the face of yesterday. It’ll be something new months from now. I carry all your faces deep in my heart with me. The first day face. The first month face. The first year face. The toddler face. The preschooler face. The kid face. The big kid face. And I hope you know… I miss the ones that are gone, I love the one that is here, and I cannot wait to meet the one that is to come. :::

These words from @mimosaswithmoms went straight to my ♥️.

Mixing different finishes inside our homes isn't j Mixing different finishes inside our homes isn't just okay to do these days... it's encouraged!  I love watching design shows talk about this or seeing the latest trends give homeowners the green light to have stainless steel appliances, oil-rubbed bronze light fixtures, and black hardware on the doors. 

Each room can have its own style, and your entire home doesn't have to be the same.  Isn't that idea so freeing?  You can give your rooms some character AND be on-point in the style department at the same time!

We made it to the last day of this crazy school ye We made it to the last day of this crazy school year! 

It was one for the record books, that's for sure.  Between virtual days and in-person and all of those tough parenting decisions where we had no idea if we were making the right choice... and now here we are, on the other side of it all.  Yay! 

And a huge cheers to the teachers who are wrapping up the end of what was no doubt a really hard school year - you deserve every bit of celebration.  The fact that all of our kiddos could go to school during everything that this last year was, and they were always greeted with happy, reassuring smiles (even if they were under a mask) is all the proof that we need to remind us exactly why you're the heroes of this school year. 

Bring on summer!

The guest bathroom. You don't have to spend a lo The guest bathroom. 

You don't have to spend a lot of extra money in this room to still make a good impression on your visitors.  This picture shows a cultured marble countertop with a molded-in sink.  These days you can totally customize by choosing a square-style sink, making it white in contrast to the color of the top, etc.  All of this helps to modernize this cost-effective bathroom option!
