Hello Friends! I am honestly sitting here in shock as I type this. I honestly wasn't sure if this day would ever happen, and I've played it over and over in my mind on how I would announce this, but no matter how many times I tried to think of a catchy title for this announcement, I just keep coming back to the fact that - WE ARE MOVING!! Honestly it still just feels so surreal to even be saying that, but the day has finally come that I get to share this joyous news with all of you! ... Read More about We’re MOVING!!!
Tween Girl Bedroom Makeover
Hello Friends!! Today I am sharing our daughters most recent bedroom makeover. I honestly can't even believe I'm using the word "tween" to describe her bedroom, because after all she is still my baby girl. And while she will always be my baby, my now 10 year old daughter had been longing for a room that felt more like her, and a little less pink. She had been asking for her room to be painted blue for over a year, but patiently waited while we finished up other projects around the house. The time finally came for us to tackle her room, and she was more than happy to help me with the painting! ... Read More about Tween Girl Bedroom Makeover

Spring Tablescape Ideas
Hello Friends!! It's Spring, it's Spring!! Or so I'm telling myself that, because as I type this there it is snowing here in NH. Yes friends - SNOW, in April. Which for a New Englander is nothing new. Just as we are beginning to see buds on the trees and new life emerge from the ground, the threat of a spring snow is always a possibility. A common factor of spring in New England that I keep trying to teach my kids about. Thankfully it usually disappears as quickly as it shows up, but nonetheless just when you think winter is officially over, it comes back around for one more visit. So today, on this blustery Friday in New Hampshire, I'm sharing my favorite glimpses from Spring Tablescapes ... Read More about Spring Tablescape Ideas
DIY | Painted Terra Cotta Lamps
Hello Friends! So one of the projects I did during my winter "break" was painting lamps. Yes lamps! I've actually done this a few times before, and shared one recently HERE. It's the perfect solution when you are wanting to refresh some items in your space without having to buy brand new. In this case however, I scored this pair of vintage terra cotta lamps off of Facebook marketplace the week before Christmas, but I just knew they would be perfect for what I was envisioning. Come and see how I painted these terra cotta lamps for a fraction of the price of the designer price tag! Let's get painting! ... Read More about DIY | Painted Terra Cotta Lamps

DIY | Hallway Board & Batten
Hello Friends! I'm so excited to share this latest reveal with all of you. The newest installment of one of my favorite wall treatments - board & batten. One of my go-to ways to add texture and warmth to a room that doesn't have curtains or upholstery in it is with architectural details. You can add architectural details on the ceilings, on walls, and it instantly can make any space feel cozier. We have installed board & batten to quite a few spaces around our home, and each time I am just as smitten with the outcome. So today I'm sharing how we installed this DIY board & batten in our hallway at the bottom of our stairs. Come and take a look ~ ... Read More about DIY | Hallway Board & Batten
Coffee Chat | vol. 1
Hello Friends!!! I know things have been a little quiet over here on the blog for the last few months, and before I jump back in to regularly sharing on here, I wanted to share a "catch - up" post if you will. Picture it as I'm personally inviting you over for a cup of coffee, only virtually. You know the kind of catch up you do with a friend when you haven't seen each other in a long time, and a coffee chat is long over due. Well today, you and I are going to have a sort of coffee chat - only it will be online, although I so wish you could be sitting in my living room with me, curled up on our white slip covered couch, with a giant cup of coffee. Or tea, or hot cocoa, or whatever you choose ... Read More about Coffee Chat | vol. 1
Christmas in the Kitchen | 2020
Hello Friends!! Today I'm sharing how I decorated our open shelves in the kitchen! Every year when it's time to pull the Christmas decor out, I head straight to these shelves in our kitchen. They are my most favorite area to decorate for Christmas in our kitchen, if not our entire house! The past few years I've kept things pretty consistent in how I've decorated them, each year slightly bette than the one before. However this year I was craving a little change. Like the rest of our Christmas decor this year, I've added my new favorite Christmas decor staple to our shelves, and while some things still remain, like boughs of greenery and bottle brush trees, I changed things up ever so slightly ...

My NEW Christmas Decor Favorite
Hello Friends!! There's a new favorite in town, and you might have noticed it in my Festive Christmas Tablescape earlier this week :) Or if you've seen some of my "behind the scenes" Christmas decorating stories on IG lately? I can't help it, I've been adding it everywhere. Open shelves, my centerpiece, even in the vignette I created on my buffet. It first showed up in the faux garland arrangement I did on our new plank wall in our kitchen, and right away I knew I wanted to add this everywhere. Come and see ~ ...
