Now that your clocks have fallen back for Daylight Savings (and if you have kids, they were up extra early – yay!), let’s dive into the show notes for Episode #23 of Young House Love Has A Podcast. This week’s episode is coming at you from a hotel room in Baltimore, and we answer three callers seeking home-related updates (from how things are holding up years later to whether it was a shock to move from a smaller ranch-style home to a larger two-story one). Sherry also celebrates *almost* predicting a 2017 color of the year, John gets emotional over another podcast, and we share why it’s especially nerve-wracking to do DIY on camera. Oh, and in honor of Election Day, our quiz takes a surprisingly political turn.
You can download this episode from iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher and TuneIn Radio – or listen to it below! Then use this page to check out any links, notes, or photos that we referenced.
What’s New
- Above is a shot from our architecture tour of Chicago. That’s the beautiful Chicago Cultural Center and its gigantic Tiffany glass dome (along with some heart-eyed bloggers snapping pics).
- Below is Sherry’s shot of our sweet recording set-up in our hotel room in Baltimore. Note the fancy sound-deadening layer on the table (bathmat) and the professional-grade computer stand (bed).
Update
- You can listen back to our What’s Not quiz in Episode 17 where we mused about what Benjamin Moore might name it’s Color of the Year in 2017.

What’s Not
- Well, we’ve got you covered if you wanna browse all of Pottery Barn’s sofas and brush up on your Vice Presidents of the United States via Wikipedia.
