Malibu Home Renovation - Caesarstone & More

September 4, 2015
  • Share
caesarstone bathroom sink cococozy
Our custom floating integrated sink made of Caesarstone Frosty Carrina! Finally it is in!

Happy Friday!  With the long holiday upon us…I can’t wait to relax with my guy TE and family!  I just got back from Chicago late last night.  Was there on business for 3 days.  Loved Chicago.  Check out my Instagram feed to see a little glimpse of my trip there but I am so happy to be home.

Got home and there are still so many little things to do here at our house…our Malibu home renovation is nearly complete but all of the finishing touches seem to be taking forever.  Everything looks finished but unfinished…missing light switch plates, missing stair railing, need barn doors, light fixtures, shelving, attic doors built out, laundry room shelves, floor vent covers and paint, paint and paint.  I didn’t mention all of the  landscaping that needs to be done and furniture that needs to be sourced and acquired (using the word acquired lately as a euphemism for the words “buy”, “spend”, and “purchase”…all words that stress my guy TE out understandably).

Anyhooo…as I sit here in the house with my Friday off…and I have a few workmen and the electricians here…I wanted to give you a little update.

One big thing is that we finally got our quartz Caesarstone bathroom integrated sink installed and the mirror.  See above.  We used a Caesarstone called Frosty Carrina in the master bath.  I love it.  Conventional design wisdom is to not mix quartz and marble surfaces in the same room.  Well we threw conventional wisdom out of the door because it made no sense.  We are so happy with our decision.  We have a beautiful durable bathroom sink top made of Caesarstone paired with a gorgeous marble basketweave floor and a blue marble moonstone tile wall and it all works together perfectly.  Love!

Anyhooo…here are some glimpse of what is going on in our little world of renovating a house on a hill in Malibu.

Now onto our custom design sofa…these are some sofa leg finishes and styles we looked at. We are building a 12’x10′ sectional for our main living room!

Custom cabinets are being built around the vent over the stove in our kitchen. Notice the Caesarstone backsplash. Still waiting for our kitchen island to be finished!

 

Malibu Home renovation vent covers
Vent covers we are using throughout the house…some are my custom designed covers that we will use on the master bedroom ceilings. Others are stock cast metal designs for the public rooms. Love these

 

Cococozy Embroidered Pillows
COCOCOZY embroidered pillows in the master bedroom! So much fun using my textile designs in the house.
Moonstone Basketweave Mosaic Tile
This is my favorite tile in the house. Moonstone, basalt, white marble basketweave mosaic used in the downstairs bathroom.
Malibu home renovation living room
This is view down hall off the living room. Stairs still need treads and we need a railing for the downstairs.

 

Hope you enjoyed these little glimpses of our renovation project. This weekend, TE and I are running some errands and then relaxing with family and friends.  Should be a good time.

Hope you have a great Labor Day weekend!

Happy Friday!

    Georgeous house and selections, Coco! Can’t wait to see the finishes 🙂
    Totally agree with you on mixing the marbles and Caesarstone. I’d do it too. What is your source for the vent covers (customized and stock)? I love them!
    Thanks,

Want a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and invitingWant a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and inviting? Start with these simple changes:
1. Layer your bedding. Mix sheets, a duvet, quilts, and throw blankets to create that plush, lived-in look.
2. Add warm lighting. Swap harsh overhead lighting for bedside lamps, sconces, or a statement light with a warm glow.
3. Bring in plenty of texture. Think linen, velvet, boucle, chunky knits, and soft rugs.
4. Keep the palette warm and calming. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and muted colors instantly make a room feel more restful.
5. Mix in natural materials. Wood, rattan, woven accents, and stone add warmth and character.
6. Make the walls feel personal. Art, photographs, or even a statement headboard can make the room feel more finished.
7. Add something organic. A vase of branches, fresh flowers, or a little greenery can bring the room to life.
The goal isn’t to make your bedroom perfect. It’s to make it feel like a place you actually want to retreat to at the end of the day.
Save this for your next bedroom refresh. 🤎

The right chandelier doesn’t just light a room, it becomes the room. Scale, material, placement. When it’s done right, everything else arranges itself around it.

Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive.Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive. 🌸
One thing I’ve learned is that every outdoor space needs a focal point. It gives your eye a place to land and makes the whole space feel more intentional.
In this courtyard, the bougainvillea naturally becomes that focal point, adding color, height, and movement without overwhelming the space.
If you’re designing your own patio or garden, start with one standout feature, then let everything else support it.
Save this tip for your next outdoor project. ✨

It’s easy to believe you’re falling behind when liIt’s easy to believe you’re falling behind when life looks different than you imagined.
But not every season is meant to be productive. Some are meant to restore you. Some are meant to reshape you. And some are quietly preparing you for what’s next.
Trust the timing of your own journey.
One day, you’ll look back and realize that even the slowest seasons were moving you forward. 🤍
