Do-it-yourself projects and Home Decor
My dream house is a mix of indoor and outdoor elements. When I was a kid I really wanted to have lawn instead of carpet in my family room and a pond inside with fish and with a stream that flowed outside. I wanted large trees to grow inside from out of the ground. Doesn’t […]
Spring is my favorite for so many reasons. It is so welcome after a long winter and I felt like this winter was the longest in history. I don’t always decorate for spring, but I really needed a little pick me up. I was craving sunshine so I decided to add some yellow to my […]
I have an addiction to houseplants. I love them and feel like everyone should have them in their home. They bring life (literally!) to a space, help the air, and add texture and interest. It makes me sad when people say they have a black thumb. I want everyone to feel more confident so I […]
Gosh. I had such high hopes for 2021 as far as the blog goes. I was going to blog 2-3 times a week instead of just one. I was going to get my site speed up, work on SEO, post more on social media, and a get a new fancy site design done. But so […]

My nephew got married and it was the first wedding I had attended since the world has been battling a pandemic. It was such a sweet celebration. Much smaller due to obvious reasons, but joyous all the same. We decided to not just go for a couple of days for the actual wedding, but to […]
When I bought this Fiddle Leaf Fig, it was 2 and a half feet tall and I didn’t really think about what would happen if it reached the ceiling. But years later it did! And I was beyond stressed at the idea of lopping off the top portion. Looking back I’m not really sure why, […]
I always struggle at the beginning of a new year. A.) January is kind of the worst. B.) I am always exhausted after the holidays and it takes a bit to get back into the swing of things. I usually take a week to deep clean after taking down the Christmas decor. After I tackled […]
