How to make your own lotion bars

December 29, 2018

I have very dry skin which gets worse each winter, so I am always on the lookout for a solution to keeping it moisturized during the winter months. I am a little late to party on these as I had no idea lotion could be in bar form until visiting my little sister in Seattle…

Homemade Christmas gifts: EASY earrings & necklaces!

December 15, 2018

Sometimes it’s the little things. That are simple, yet meaningful. Beautiful but not fancy or expensive. Joyful times and wonderful memories for me have always surrounded the quiet simple moments, and fun memories of doing something together as a family. With each year that passes I find myself going back to what was most meaningful…

Little pink (Christmas) houses for you and me

December 8, 2018

If you give a girl some glitter… And a group of Dollar Tree Christmas houses… And she happens to have some pink spray paint… Then… Well, this happens. And a new pink, sparkly Christmas Cottage community is created. I don’t know about you, but I could live there. It’s almost a public service if you…

DIY Frosted Paper Magnolia Wreath

December 2, 2018

  I love wreaths. And I didn’t realize how many I had (similar to the shock when you survey how many craft supplies you have amassed or what your hoard of furniture to paint looks like) until we moved this year. Knowing that I could make more, and some of them had been stored haphazardly…

Christmas old + new

November 26, 2018

Sometimes sprinkling a few new treasures along with our favorites sure does refresh what we already have for the holidays. The excitement of unpacking the boxes of ornaments, some Bing Crosby playing in the background, and the anticipation of the events unfolding in the weeks to come. And could I just say that I hope…

Our new home office + how to faux wallpaper your walls

September 10, 2018

Hello gorgeous, I have missed you! We have spent every waking moment (when not at work) working around our new place painting and getting fix-its done before the rainy weather arrives. I’m saving a few things for winter that are inside that desperately need a redo, like our kitchen that is getting a much-needed pantry….

Modern Bohemian Master Bedroom progress

August 15, 2018

  Have you found yourself smitten with a color immediately and you can think of nothing else than it being on your wall? While we are barely making a dent on the to do list at our new place, I had to eek out some time to make the master bedroom feel relaxing. I wasn’t…

We bought a house + our living room reveal!

July 21, 2018

  For the past ten years I have rented the home we lived in. It was a lovely home with lots of memories, but we were ready to begin a new chapter. So we looked a lot online first, and wanting to keep the kids in the same school limited our area. The real estate…

Boho style outdoor area

Boho vibe summer front porch

June 4, 2018

Hi friends! I am super excited to share my recently refreshed outdoor space for our front porch.  It’s kind of a wonky narrow area so you cant really lose your mind with big pieces.   But before I get into that, I want to thank Katrin from Kreativ K for putting together this fun Outdoor Space…
