Fall in the Mom Cave

10/31/2019 By Bre

There’s a place in our home that I love to sit and enjoy the quiet. I think it’s important that we all take time to pause and reflect in this busy, fast-paced driven world. For me it’s vital. I don’t need much time, but just a few minutes of undistracted, quiet time to gather my thoughts does me a world of good – and my family too. It calms me, helps me feel less bothered, and allows me a moment to refresh, so I can give my best. It’s been awhile since I’ve shared the Mom-Cave on here, so today I’m sharing bits of fall in the mom cave.

We Each have our Own Gifts

10/27/2019 By Bre

Happy Sunday friends!! I’m just popping in, as we wrap the weekend up to share a little bit of a personal story. I love sharing bits about our home, and projects we might be working on, and of course my love for interior design, but I also love being able to connect with you on a more personal level. And even though we aren’t sitting face to face, in cozy chairs with a warm cup of coffee nestled between our hands, my heart is always to provide encouragement as well. I shared a bit in my IG stories last week, and I got so many messages back saying how much it resonated with people, that I wanted to share it here. So today I’m sharing a bit of a personal story.

Our first Gathering

10/18/2019 By Bre

Ohh Happy Friday friends, the weekend is here!! I’m not sure what you have planned, but I hope there’s at least one thing you are looking forward to. Today I’m sharing a story I haven’t shared here on the blog before. It’s about the very first dinner party my husband and I had – our first gathering if you will. I’ve shared my heart behind the book, and of course my love for creating tablescapes, but long ago, before blogging or even tablescapes were a thing, I found myself sitting at our hand-me-down dining room table, making handmade invitations inviting our friends to our first ever dinner party!
