Introducing the 2nd Fixer-Upper Home

Basement Bathroom Reveal
I’m coming to you with an actual completely finished room of the house-the basement bathroom (okay minus the door and touch ups to the trim). Greg and I started on it, with some help from family, in May. Weekends, weekday … Continue reading
My Parent’s Bathroom and Kitchen Remodel
Today I would like to share the renovations my parents (Annie’s parents) have made to their “new” place. I say “new” because it was actually my sister and her family’s house until fall of 2012 when they switched houses. My … Continue reading

We're Annie and Greg Witkamp (aka the Wits, aka Em & Wit Design). We salvage, refurbish and design furniture and homes. We're taking a break from an online & social media presence (for the most part). Our time on the blog was memorable and fun, but we're off to other projects and opportunities. Most derived from our shenanigans here. We'll drop in once in a while, but just know we're off chasing our dreams, tackling goals and living a life we enjoy.
Our specialty is wood furniture in rough shape that we come across on craigslist, at estate sales, on the curb, in a barn, you get it. Those pieces are cleaned, repaired, refurbished and good to go for years to come. Sometimes we design our own pieces.
As of spring 2016, we decided to make this website, the Wits, about our remodeling homes and emandwit.com about the furniture. You can shop there, ask us questions, see our newly finished pieces and portfolio.
We sold our second remodeled home near Seattle in August 2018 and moved to Richmond, Virginia. Getting to Washington was a goal that took years to achieve, but we had an opportunity come up and we grabbed hold (again)!
You can watch our journey right here, there, and/or through Instagram.
