Welcome to the Lakehouse

Hey there! I'm Tanya

Welcome to life Dans le Lakehouse
("in the lakehouse") - where beachy meets mid-century.

Stay awhile and I'll show you how to make your home and life more beautiful, with hundreds of DIY home decor projects, modern craft tutorials, and home improvement ideas for every budget!

Plus learn from my adventures raising chickens, gardening, and living more sustainably on the shores of Lake Superior.

See my work featured in print and online by Good Housekeeping, Better Homes & Gardens, Elle Decor, Country Living and more.

You can also find me on bookshelves! I co-wrote a DIY book called "How to Fix Stuff" - linked below.
