Welcome to Home with Zaccone!
Who are We? I am Nicole Zaccone, writing on behalf of myself and my handsome hubby, Mike Zaccone (since this website falls under my column of specialties). I am a Title Examiner (Real Estate field) and Mike is in the HVAC/energy field. Shortly after starting our relationship, we realized that with my eye for design and his hands-on skills, we had a winning combo for creating the home space we dreamed of!
Just this past February of 2023, we made a big move from Monmouth County, NJ down south to Ocean County, NJ, so that we could afford a home big enough for our blended family. It was a super stressful process, but so very worth it in the end! We now have all the space we could ever want and are focused on making this home into OUR home.
We were hesitant to start documenting our journey – mostly because our home isn’t perfect. There will crumbs, there will be things out of place, and the counters and floors won’t be spotless (partial credit for all of this to our almost 3 year old). Our finished projects won’t always be 100% finished and you might see some nail holes or unpainted caulk. We are here to show you that you can have a beautiful home somewhere between imperfection and perfection and that is perfectly fine!
With that being said, since the day we moved in, we’ve been doing all kinds of DIY projects to transform our home into what we’ve always envisioned. Working full-time while raising three girls has definitely been a challenge when it comes to finding time to take on projects, but somehow we’ve made it work! We are here to share our journey with you in the hopes that it will inspire you to find the time to take on projects yourselves! Not only will we be sharing our projects, but I will be sharing my home decor insights so that you can not only update, but decorate at the same time! Spoiler alert: I am a huge fan of decorating for holidays (there will be lots of hauls).
