A Busy Home Project Weekend
We had to shoot a shopping video for one of our shows, and well, recording even a 20 second little blip with your husband, after an entire day of shopping together in the heat, can sometimes make you a bit grumpy, snappy, and mostly… just silly. I was a little hesitant on sharing this footage because it’s totally candid and shows how we interact with each other (which is just weird to see on camera), and also because you get to see how immature and “unprofessional” we really are. ha! (no judging)
But in the tradition of “keeping things real” around here… I just had to share.
PS. In case you were wondering…yes, we are totally aware that we are complete dorks.
Jessica says
Ha! Love it. I think hubby and I are total dorks.
Alesha says
Lol! I love it! I'm sure my husband and I would top you guys for dorkiness of we were to record something like this. =) I love seeing the "behind the scenes" stuff. =)
Alesha <3

P.S. I especially love the keepin it real photos up top. My kitchen looked pretty much the same way all weekend ๐

Haha! Omg I love the video! So funny, you guys are too cute!! This is my first time posting here, and I've only recently been following your blog (about a month now), but I'm in LOVE with not only your craftiness, and home, but also your sense of humbleness, geniality and how relatable you are! It's not just what you're good at that has, and continues, to open doors for you, it's who YOU are! Thank you for being YOU!! It's so refreshing. =)

You sound BUSY!!!
And I loved the video… but truly, nothing is as crazy as the captions! Go ahead and see what it's like to be one of your deaf fans… the Transcribe Audio function gave me:
"Pilkington Dog Groups on Anthony"
Please tell me what on earth that was??? hee hee!
Paul and Kim Badger says
Shelley, I am so glad I came to you house to help you out with this video. I haven't laughed that hard in quit a while. You both were hilarious! Mom

Maureen Hayes says
Loved it! Thanks for being "real", I hate sites where everyone and everything is perfect because we all know that isn't how life works. I like the interaction between you two, you have a genuine love and affection that comes through, even when you are annoying the other person. . . LOL!
Unknown says
I'm a total dork too!! And I love that you share that your house is not always picture perfect.
PS you look fabulous!!!

Lisa Joy says
Okay, I just did a little crazy happy dance when I saw the first photos…proof that "perfect blogger's houses" DO GET MESSY! Hooray! It feels so good knowing it's not just my house and kids that get messy. ๐
Oh, and anybody else's kids firmly believe that couch pillows are meant to reside on the *floor* so that Mommy can pick them up 50,000 times a day?

Julie says
We've never met, but I feel like we are best friends . . . which we would be . . . except we've never met. Anyway, loved the "real" pictures and the video was awesome. I'm excited to see where you like to shop (because I live in Utah). ๐

Cute! Ok, now where is the video of your favorite places to shop. I want to see that. :0) Is it on the Craft Channel? BTW, I love your daughters bedroom. You always pick out the cutest bedding.

Hilarious Shelley! I'm pretty sure that we would be good silly fun friends in person. My hubs and I are doing a video soon and I can't wait to see the outtakes on that one. ๐

Thanks for keeping it real!
Gina says
Its late at night for me and so this was extra funny to me–probably because it is so something I would do. Thanks for the laugh! This blog rocks. I totally covet your decor style and wish I could wisk you over my home in Omaha and have you transform it with your lovely touch. Lots of love!- gina
Kelsey Peterson says
By far my favorite post. And I LOVE your DIYs and fun ideas but I LOVED this post. The real photos made me happy and the video. I loved I laughed and I could see that you guys are an awesome couple. Your hubby made me laugh because he was patient and yet not so patient, LOVED it. You are cute and I love the confidence/insecurities you can see like "why do I always start with so?" checking for boogers in the camera haha. LOVED it.
have I told you I love this post?
Thank you. So, in short I think you SHOULD do more video posts and leave the bloopers in and everything.
