- In her former vintage home, built in 1924, Kirstie and her husband completed a wide variety of home renovations, including projects in the the kitchen and bathrooms. They also restored period character details that had been removed and renovated an outdoor shed into a light-filled office, which she blogged about on her personal site.
- Kirstie's piece about how to remove thorny brambles from a yard came from her personal experience of trying to remove a ridiculously large infestation of blackberry bushes at a prior home.
- She is also an experienced mosaic artist who works primarily in glass and ceramic tiles for decorative art projects, primarily home decor and gifts.
