Did you know that there is a difference between a peach crisp recipe and a peach cobbler recipe? ⁣⁣I didn't.⁣⁣Truthfully, the thought never crossed my mind despite the fact that I make two very different recipes.⁣⁣A crisp is a fruit layer topped with more of an oat streusel, and a cobbler has more of a cake-like topping. ⁣⁣Today, not to be confused with a peach crisp, I am sharing how to make a peach cobbler - the more traditional, old-fashioned way. ⁣⁣Butter, flour, and sugar never tasted so good.⁣⁣Click on the link in my bio to get the recipe!

Happy Saturday!

True story. ⁣⁣You can see which room "sold it" on the blog post. ⁣⁣Click on the link in my bio and join me for this vintage Victorian basement renovation as we transform it from dark and dreary to bright and beautiful including an exercise room and a craft room!

Many of you have been following along with our current small basement renovation here at our third fixer upper. ⁣⁣This home is from the 1960s and the ceiling is not very high although passable by code. In order to make the basement feel bigger as well as limit extra costs, we are designing an open concept ceiling which means leaving the joists exposed.⁣⁣Determining how to finish the ceiling of any basement remodel can be challenging. ⁣⁣Today on the blog I have rounded up 44 basement ceiling ideas broken down into 7 categories: scrolling through this gallery of basement ceiling inspiration that is broken down into 7 categories: ⁣⁣- Exposed Basement Ceilings⁣- Plank Basement Ceilings⁣- Metal Basement Ceilings⁣- Decorative Tile Basement Ceilings⁣- Drop Basement Ceilings⁣- Coffered Basement Ceilings⁣- Wood Beam Basement Ceilings⁣⁣Click on the link in my bio to scroll through this gallery and figure out how you're going to finish your new basement!⁣⁣Photo: @thisoldhouse
