Restoration Home with Jennifer Pepito

Any House Can Be a Home with Myquillyn Smith

Instagram has filled us with images of beautiful homes, and it's such a joy to look at these to be inspired, but at the end of the day, "what do you want children to remember about life in your home"? Is a perfect Instagram house going to build the memories you wnat your children to remember about their youth? 

Myquillyn Smith author of The Nesting Place joins Jennifer Pepito in episode 82 to talk about how we build a home. Myquillyn spent many years living in rentals, often waiting for the home of her dreams until she realised that she needed to start creating a home for her boys now. She shares that process, her best tips for decorating, and how to visualise and execute our family priorities in the design of our homes.
