Hi! I’m Laura and I live in Staten Island, New York. In December 2015, my fiance and I purchased our first home, a 1917 American Foursquare. We knew we would need to do some work to the house to bring it back to its former glory, but we had no idea what we were getting into!
We love our doofy house, though, and I’ve enjoyed researching its history and the history of the American Foursquare style.
Our house turned 100 on January 4th, 2017, and that day I decided to start this blog to chronicle our house’s (slow but steady) journey back to fabulousness, as well as our lives and random tidbits I find interesting.
Thanks for stopping by!
