I am the weirdo who goes to open houses when I'm definitely not buying a house. I like shopping, apparently (and I have two patient and totally bored kids). This house in Ballard is the exact same house as our Queen Anne rental, only done up super pretty. The key is no clutter and a bajillion pillows? Trying to place my finger on why my house could never look this nice.

I just wrote this story for ParentMap about spring cleaning with kids, and now I'm totally motivated to Marie Kondo our house.
