Sarah Baumler is known for her impeccable eye for interior design on shows like Renovation Island, Rock the Block, and Battle on the Beach. But the HGTV star (and jewelry designer!) is making a name as a fashion icon, and her fans are trying to replicate her looks.

Sarah shared a casual selfie poolside at her Caerula Mar resort in the Bahamas. In the photo, she’s wearing a halter-style white tank top paired with matching white shorts with ruffle details at the waist and on the pockets. Her hair is pulled back in a sleek bun, and she’s enjoying a cold beverage in a mason jar. She captioned the post, “That Friday feeling 🤍Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend with the ones they love xxsb.”

As usual, fans left comments like, “I’d love to know so what makes the clothes you wear. You always look so great” and “I love that

Belmont Park renovation work could bring the Breeders’ Cup to New York in the future

Renovation

The home of the third and final leg of horse racing’s Triple Crown is finally getting a major makeover.

A little over a year from now, after it hosted the Belmont Stakes in 2024, Belmont Park is set to undergo a $455 million renovation of everything from the track surface to a new, smaller grandstand more fit for the sport in the modern era.

Once completed, the track should host the best horses in the world for a Breeders’ Cup in the not-too-distant future, but the expected construction timeline raises the question of where the 2025 Belmont will take place. New York Racing Association president and CEO Dave O’Rourke expects a clearer answer on that in the coming months when the project is further along.

The 1 1/2-mile race known as “the test of the champion” has been run before at Aqueduct in Queens, from 1963-67 when Belmont Park was

Glenbow Museum asks the city for another $18M as renovation costs soar

Renovation

The city is being asked to contribute millions of dollars to help cover the cost escalation on the major renovation of the Glenbow Museum.

The museum has asked the city for another $18 million.

Work is already well underway on the renovation of the Glenbow Museum, which will see it revamped with an entirely new look and modern features inside and out.

The president and CEO Nicholas Bell says the project’s budget is increasing though due to the rising cost of construction materials. Originally pegged to cost about $120 million, it’s now estimated that the project will come in at about $130 million.

inspired by the cinema world, MCA forms reel house in colorado

located in Coloradothe Reel House sees the sweeping renovation of a Victorian two-story home, offering a modern take on a timeless classic. Inspired by the client’s profession in cinematography, the project by MCA (Matteo Cainer Architects) was designed to capture the essence of the cinematic experience, characterized by excitement, surprise, emotion and lighting techniques. To achieve this, the design team focused on three main elements, the projector, reels, and film strip, as the primary architectural language, resulting in a unique and innovative design that embodies the spirit of the silver screen.

‘As a conceptual approach, we pursued the architectural strategy of ‘nesting’ which gave us the opportunity to design and develop the project from within, as if a ‘film within a film’. By slowly deconstructing and understanding the ‘magic’ behind the camera, we designed a project that curates

How to Make a Shelf with a Wooden Gallery Rail

Posted on By Kartika
Renovation

We are currently refreshing the laundry room and I am slowly completing a project to update this space. We finished it almost 7 years ago and it is one of the most used rooms in our house (after the kitchen). But now that we have 3 kids and my style has evolved, it’s time for some changes! My latest project is to make a shelving with wooden gallery rails and I’m here to share all the details with you!

How to Make a Wooden Gallery Rail Shelf

When we first finished the laundry room, we put a shelf against the wall above the washer and dryer that was about 5 feet long. I don’t know why I decided on that length or why I didn’t extend it all the way to the wall. It was the start of my design journey and the laundry room was the first room I ever designed from top to bottom!

Above Ground Pool Cost Guide

Posted on By Kartika
Renovation

Yes, it’s true, the cool house on the block always has a pool. But we don’t blame you if you don’t want to spend all your time and money installing and maintaining one. A slightly easier and less expensive way to make your backyard the official destination of summer is with an above ground pool. The typical above-ground pool cost is a fraction of what you’d spend on an inground one.

An above ground pool has rigid sides with supports and sits on top of the ground rather than down in it like a vinyl or fiberglass pool. They come as deep as four feet—so no diving, please—and as big as 12-by-24 feet, so they can hold a few friends but not a big party. And yes, technically, hot tubs are just small above ground pools with more powerful heaters, but here we’re talking about large, cannonball-worthy swimming pools.
