The Merc Renovation The Series!

By Mandi 01/26/2018

Hey hey!! I have been counting down the days to today for a very very long time. We are finally launching our video series for the Merc!! And also !!!!!!!! And a few more !!!!! for good measure. If you’ve been following for a while you know we are doing vlog style videos ourselves, but we really wanted to capture the reno in a professional way that was bitesize and inspiring.

Court and I are over the moon to introduce you to our series sponsor. I think you guys are going to be pretty shocked about who it is. I mean, it is totally unexpected, and not at all who you would have picked as our perfect partner for this renovation.

Sike. Its The Home Depot!!

(But, really who else would it have been?)

This is the first of 5 episodes. I’ll admit I got teary a few times seeing just how far we’ve come on the reno and the old school VR clips pulled at the heart strings a little.

When I started the blog almost 8 years ago I had NO IDEA that it could turn into this dream, I never in a million years would have thought a company like Home Depot would know who I was, let alone become my most cherished business relationship. I guess this just goes to show that you never know what is waiting down the path that you nervously take a few steps onto.

Check out the episode below, I think you’re going to love it!

  4. I never watch videos on the internet but you guys are adorable!! I will watch every episode!!! Thanks for sharing your awesome adventure.

  5. I triple dog dare court to spray the ceiling in a fishnet body suit 😉 hahahahahahahaha

  6. Just back from a trip to the national parks in Utah. Told my boyfriend we HAD to make a side trip to Santa Clara to see the Merc! So cool to see it in person. Now I can follow along with guys and say, “yay, I’ve been there!!”

  7. I have been following you since the end of 2011.
    I LOVED the foil project – creative, simple and stood out.
    In a house with lots of red velvet and animal print, it would be a stunner.

    I am happy to see how things have grown for you and Court.

  8. You two are silly, funny, brave, DIY to the max, full of faith and belief in yourselves. I’m so proud of you both and all the brave things you have done. You have stuck up for yourselves when companies tried to steal your designs, with grace and dignity. You are Rock Stars! May every good thing come to you.

  9. I have been a follower since the beginning and it has been so much fun to watch your business and family grow. Love that you are just as down to earth today as in the beginning. Can’t wait to see how the merc turns out!

  10. The tin foil dresser was mind blowing for me. I actually redid a mirror frame with tin foil after that!

  11. This was great! Can’t wait for the next one. I love following your creative adventures.

  12. This video drove me insanely crazy happy! The Drone footage of Santa Clara and The Merc put it ALL IN PERSPECTIVE!

  13. Can’t wait to watch the entire series! Thank you for sharing all your successes as well as the trials and tribulations along the way. The Merc looks so jaw droppingly gorgeous!

    (As a fellow Boston Terrier family, it was lovely to catch a glimpse of Gertie too!)
