McBride Family Media is a amily-run digital media company creating content to help real families thrive at home.
Hey! We’re Morgan and Sean McBride — a husband-and-wife team running a handful of digital brands from our home in Charleston, South Carolina. What started back in 2012 as a little home renovation blog has turned into a full-blown media company that reaches millions of readers each year.
These days, we run several websites, social communities, digital shops, and courses — all designed to make everyday life at home a little easier, more fun, and way less overwhelming.
At the heart of everything we create is a simple mission: to help real families (just like ours!) enjoy the process — whether that’s decorating a room, choosing the perfect paint color, wrangling houseplants, or making holidays feel a little more magical for your kids.
McBride Family Media is the umbrella over all our different brands, including:
- Charleston Crafted – DIY tutorials, woodworking plans, and beginner-friendly home renovation ideas.
- Paint Color Project – Paint color guides and palette inspiration to help you confidently choose colors that work in your space.
- Celebrating With Kids – Printables, crafts, and fun ideas to help busy parents make holidays and everyday moments feel special.
- Keep Your Plants Alive – Simple, realistic plant care tips for anyone who wants thriving houseplants (even if you’ve killed a cactus before).
- @MorganSmithMcBride – A growing social-first community where Morgan shares easy crafts, holiday ideas, and creative inspiration to help busy moms make magical, stress-free memories with their kids.
Our work is funded through digital product sales, online courses, brand partnerships, and affiliate recommendations — always staying true to what we’d actually use, love, or do in our own home.
At the end of the day, we’re just a real family behind the screen, figuring things out as we go and sharing what works. Thanks for being here — we hope something we’ve created helps make your day a little easier or a little brighter.
