January 10, 2022

Happy January! I was a bit more quiet than usual over the holidays but it was just one of those years that you find yourself needing to rest. Being an area I struggle with (rest, self-care, quietness) I decided to take the pressure to post off and just enjoy. And paint a bit of course!…

Summer Master Bedroom glow up

June 2, 2021

Hey there! This post has been weeks in the making and it just kind of sat while life got a little crazy and I had the pleasure of an emergency root canal. I know, that was my reaction too. But, I am thankful for an excellent dentist and am on the mend so now back…
