Hi! I'm Meredith.My husband Stephen and I moved from Arkansas to Denver, CO in 2014, and we are loving life in our new state with our two little girls. I always have a project up my sleeves and love sharing renovation tips and tricks on my way to Before & Afters. I love inspiring others to tackle DIY projects because being proud of where you live starts with saying "I did that myself!"
Welcome to Heardmont - I'm so happy you're here!

Preparing
We don’t know what to believe, weather-wise, around here these days. One forecast I heard yesterday called for 3/4″-1″ of ice today with 8″-16″ of snow on top of that! SIXTEEN INCHES OF SNOW?!! Are you kidding me? Of course … Continue reading
