Room-by-Room Finish Checklist

One of the most overwhelming parts of building or renovating a home isn’t the floor plan, it’s the finishes.

Decisions stack quickly. Small details get overlooked. And suddenly you’re choosing faucets, trim, and hardware under pressure with no clear system.

Cue - my newest guide!! The Room-byRoom Finish Checklist.

It's detailed. Like down to what potential rug size you plan to put and where the outlets should go.

It's thorough. You won't be missing any small details.

It's something I WISH I had when we started our process. OMG it would've made life so much easier.

This room-by-room finish checklist was created to slow the process down, help you think through every space intentionally, and make confident decisions you won’t regret later.

Who it’s for:

• Custom home builders

• Renovators

• Anyone overwhelmed by finish decisions

What makes it different:

This isn’t inspiration.

This is decision support.

AND — there's a section to help keep your home cohesive throughout.

• Are finishes cohesive?

• Are metal finishes intentional?

• Is trim consistent?

• Are lighting styles aligned?

• Are flooring transitions planned?

This guide exists so you don’t walk through your finished home thinking, “I wish I would’ve thought about that."

Each room includes:

• Core finishes (the must-decide items)

• Often-forgotten details

• Design consistency checks

• Notes / decisions section

My favorite tab is the exterior tab. For whatever, reason, this was the TOUGHEST for me. I really had no idea what I was getting into. This tab... she's DETAILED haha.

Truly I wish I had this during our build process. I hope this helps someone avoid the immense decision fatigue like I had!
