Bringing old stone back to life 🔨♻️

This bluestone has history. Instead of tearing it out and tossing it, we carefully pulled it up, cleaned it, re-cut where needed, and laid it again like new. Same stone. Fresh look. Built to last for decades.

Renew. Recycle. Remasonry done right.

If you’ve got worn, uneven, or outdated stone and want to transform it without starting from scratch, we’ve got you covered.

👉 DM us to schedule a site visit
👉 Follow for more stone transformations
👉 Let’s rebuild it better this time

Nutrition Tip of the Week 🍽️
How to Eat Out Without Blowing Up Your Progress

✔️ Protein + veggies first
✔️ Add the carb you actually want
✔️ Sauces on the side when possible
✔️ Enjoy it → move on → no guilt

Eating out doesn’t ruin results.
Overthinking it does.

Progress is built on what you do most days — not one meal with friends 🍕🍷

A healthier new year doesn’t need extremes — it needs consistency.

If you’re feeling off, stuck, or “starting over again”… start here.
These simple habits make the biggest difference when you actually do them 👇

🍽️ Plan your meals (future you will thank you — don’t wing it)
😴 Protect your sleep with a consistent bedtime
🏋️‍♀️ Strength train 2–3x/week (yes, this counts as self-care)
🌞 Get outside daily — even 5–10 minutes helps
📵 Log off earlier at night (your nervous system needs it)
🤝 Have accountability — doing it alone is overrated

Small habits. Done daily.
That’s how real progress happens. 💪✨
