Hello Friends, and Happy Fall!! The weather has been amazing here in New England, and the color on the leaves this year is truly breath taking.

If you've been following along with me on Instagram, then you saw how I started gathering things for our porch this year, but I'm excited for you to come and take a look! Come and see ~ ...

How to Create a Backyard Gathering
Hello Friends! If you are a familiar face around here, then you know it's no secret that I love gatherings! I love creating tablescapes to celebrate life's many special moments. I even wrote a book about HERE. I'm so excited because today I get to share another beautiful book my friend Courtney, from French Country Cottage, wrote called Inspired Gatherings. Courtney has definitely inspired me from the early days of blogging, by encouraging me to pursue my photography and my creative gifts, and I love that we share this common thread of a love for gatherings. I'm thrilled to share her new book with you, and as a way to celebrate I put together a backyard gathering, because right now it's all ... Read More about How to Create a Backyard Gathering
What I did on the First day of School
Friends, it's official - our kids are finally back at school and have had their first day. There were a lot of emotions leading up to this day, the uncertainties of how the classroom environment will be. All the "what-ifs" - will they like going back? Will it be weird? How is it going to be wearing a mask? And will they be able to keep up with all the new protocols or should they just stay home? So many emotions, and so my questions I have been in deep thought and spending time in prayer over these past few months leading up to their first day of school. I shared before that we live in a small, rural town, and our kids public school is open to in person teaching - which I know is not the ... Read More about What I did on the First day of School
Blue + Red Fall Soiree Tablescape | 2020
Hello Friends! It feels so good to be sharing a post about fall! I have to admit, it feels like fall sort of snuck up on us this year, and I find myself reminded of the quote by Oscar Wilde "And all at once summer collapsed into fall". I find myself ready, and longing for not only the structure that fall tends to bring with it, but all the warm nostalgias that make fall great. Apple picking, pumpkin spice lattes, leaves changing colors, and that crisp fall air that has us grabbing for cozy blankets and warmer sweaters. The pumpkins are on the farm stands here in New England, and if you look close enough you can even see the leaves are already beginning to turn. I find the familiarities to be ...

Summer Dining Room | 2020
Hello Friends! I realize it has been a hot minute since I have posted on here. I know this year in general has looked very different for most of us, and I found myself needing to take some time over the course of the summer to really step back and navigate through everything that has been going on. If you caught my last post, I shared this mama's heart and my thoughts on our kids going back to school. I know many kids across the country have already started back to school, ours start next week, and whatever your decision is with school this year, I hope you find encouragement from that post. You can read it HERE, in case you missed it. And while today might be September 1st, I realized I ... Read More about Summer Dining Room | 2020
Thoughts on Back to School – and this Mamas Heart
Friends, my heart is heavy as we make our way towards a new school year starting and so many uncertainties still left up in the air. We have twenty-nine days left until the first day of school here in New England, and I know there are other parts of the country who have already begun or will begin in the next couple of weeks. With so much still to decide on it seems that the only thing as of lately that brings me solitude is spending time in our yard with my hands in the dirt, which is exactly what I was doing before I came in to write this down to share with you. I know I don't always talk about mom stuff or family life, but right now this is what is weighing heavy on my heart, so today I'm ... Read More about Thoughts on Back to School – and this Mamas Heart

Easy Elegance Wednesday | vol. 43
Hello friends!! First I just want to say THANK YOU so much from the bottom of my heart for all of your kind comments regarding my hubby's Masculine Office Reveal I shared on Monday. Honestly since starting the construction on it last summer, it feel so great to be able to finally share the finished project with you all! Not to mention how much fun it was to work on a design project that wasn't home related. I believe that any space can feel warm and inviting, including the typical "office space", and working on his space was proof of that! So thank you! In case you missed the REVEAL you can see it HERE. And be sure to check out some of the beautiful home decor ideas my friends and I are ... Read More about Easy Elegance Wednesday | vol. 43
Masculine Office Reveal
Hello friends!! I am SO excited to finally be sharing my Hubby's finished office space with all of you today!! Of course I was thrilled at the chance to put my design skills to use in a more modern masculine space. While my husband pretty much lets me decorate our home how I please, creating a space for him that was more masculine was my goal. Creating a space that was both warm and professional was the goal, because after all this is where he runs his business, holds weekly meetings with his employees, and also has the occasional customer stopping by as well. So keeping all of those things in mind while come up with the design plan was key. I can't wait to show you what I came up with and ... Read More about Masculine Office Reveal
Summer Vacation Favorites
Hello Friends!! We just got back from being away on summer vacation! It was so nice to getaway and stay at a house on a lake, just an hour north of us, providing our family the perfect spot to spend some time relaxing on the water! Picture this, coffee every morning overlooking the lake, kids swimming all day, and no phones! We decided to just unplug and enjoy the time away, distraction free. It was heaven! Just before we left, while I was compiling things for our vacation, I rounded up a list of all of my summer vacation favorites. I'm sure there are other lists out there of amazing products, but you know when you find something good, you want to share it with a friend? Well, that's what ...
