A Home Built in Layers: Our Kitchen + Dining Updates with Rejuvenation

Warm heritage-inspired kitchen featuring Rejuvenation lighting and hardware

When we first moved into this house, I remember standing in the kitchen and imagining what it could be.
The bones were there—the light, the openness, the potential—but it was the details I dreamed about. The kind that bring a sense of warmth and history to a space. The kind that whisper stories into the everyday.

Last year, we started weaving that story in with our first few pieces from Rejuvenation:
Aged brass sconces in the dining room
A drum chandelier that anchors our table
Classic kitchen hardware that added instant warmth

It was a small start, but it made such a difference. The materials, the craftsmanship, the heritage-inspired design—it all felt like it belonged.

So this spring, we partnered with Rejuvenation again to continue layering in that same thoughtful charm.

This season’s additions include:
Unlacquered brass cabinet hardware that will patina beautifully with time
A champagne bronze kitchen faucet that catches the light just right
A solid brass gallery rail system + aged hooks that blend form and function
New pendant lights and an overhead kitchen sink light that glows with intention

Each piece was chosen slowly and intentionally—not because we wanted the space to feel “done,” but because we wanted it to feel ours.

Rejuvenation’s designs have a kind of soulfulness to them. They’re not trendy—they’re lasting. There’s a weight and texture to each piece that feels like it belongs to another time, while still grounding our home in the present.

This collaboration has been such a gift—and a reflection of what we value most in our home:
slowness, intention, and beauty that endures.

If you’re in a season of updating, renovating, or simply dreaming, I can’t recommend starting with the lighting and hardware enough. They’re small changes, yes—but the impact is quiet and lasting.

As always, thank you for being here—walking with us as this house becomes a home, one layer at a time.
