Deuce Cities Henhouse

What. Up. I thought this post might come in handy if you're anything like me and you're right on the edge of spring, you can't contain yourself, and you need to just do something outside already! That being said, forgive the fact that there is barely any green going on in these pics - it's coming! We recently replaced our Nicaraguan hammock.

Hi! I’m Alison Allen

I started Deuce Cities Henhouse in 2009 – a blog about fixing up and restoring my 110-year-old Minneapolis home and updating our worn out and out, dated Wisconsin cabin. My family and I (my husband and two boys) moved into our current home nearly ten years ago, and since then I’ve been chronicling my journey of owning, renovating, decorating and DIY-ing our home.
 
I’m passionate about empowering women to take on projects that they might have normally not had the confidence to do, incorporating modern design and aesthetic into my home, thoughtful design solutions, and landscaping. I’ve done it all, from easy do-it-yourself home improvement projects to full on renovations and remodels.
