Young House Love Has A Podcast

Deep (and not-so-deep) conversations about home improvement, design, and life at home. Tune in for weekly episodes filled with casual decorating advice, DIY stories, interviews with experts, and a smattering of tips and ideas that can help you simplify, organize, and update your home. Sherry and John Petersik are the married duo who began chronicling their home improvement adventures in 2007 on the blog Young House Love, which spawned two New York Times best-selling books, as well as product lines sold by Target and Home Depot. And, well, now they have a podcast.

Show notes

What's it really like to downsize? We talk with House*Tweaking blogger Dana Miller about how moving to a smaller home (at a time they're family was expanding!) helped them achieve their financial and family goals, and why it's not always as easy as it may seem. Plus, our own pursuit to spend less money on things and more on experiences leads to a very strange morning together. Also, when should you buy vs. rent a new tool and Sherry's favorite quick trick for dents and scratches in wood furniture.

#32: The Stuff In Our House We Don't Show You Jan 16, 2017

Show notes

When a listener asked about the strange habits or odd things you might uncover in our house, we jumped at the chance to pull back the curtain and call each other out: from the unusual supply that John keeps in the office to the confounding items you might find sitting on our couch and in our kitchen drawers. Plus, a local realtor puts the kibosh on Sherry's fantasy bathroom renovation and John shares a popular home robot that sadly didn't live up to our expectations.
