Hi Friends!! Recently, I had a friend ask me this question over coffee, "Is Fall Nesting Really a Thing?" Without hesitation, I responded with “you better believe it is!” How else do you explain the feeling you get when the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, and many of us feel the natural pull to retreat indoors and create a space that feels warm and inviting. This seasonal shift is often called fall nesting—a practice of refreshing your home with cozy layers, natural accents, and comforting details that mirror autumn’s beauty.

Back Deck Reveal
Hi Friends! I am so excited to share with you our Back Deck Reveal! I will be the first to tell you that I completely underestimated the impact that this renovation was going to have on the exterior of our home. Maybe that's because after living with the previous condition of our back deck for three years, your eyes become used to it, and the sore spots that once stuck out no longer do. Our back deck makeover has completely transformed our home's curb appeal with a blend of classic design elements and modern comfort. Step inside (or rather, step outside) as we reveal the finished porch and all the details that brought it to life. Come and see ~ ... Read More about Back Deck Reveal

New Living Room Paint Color
Hi Friends!! Two weeks before Christmas I decided to paint our living room. Yes, I know that sounds crazy, but I had been contemplating doing it for a while. I always say that paint colors are a personal choice, and I was craving something a little cozier for our living room. While I will still say that white is my favorite color to paint a room, I was ready for a change after having white walls in our current living room (and at our previous house). So today, I'm sharing the official reveal of the new paint color in our living room. Come and see ~ ... Read More about New Living Room Paint Color

How to Find Furniture on Facebook Marketplace
Hi Friend! It's no secret around here that I love to find great deals on pretty much anything I'm in the market to buy. I love to hunt for bargains and search through clearance shelves, knowing I have stretched my dollars as far as they can go. One of my favorite places to look is on Facebook Marketplace. Most likely because of the convenience of being able to search through listings from the comfort of my morning chair with coffee in hand.

Goals for 2025
Hi friends! Every new year, I like to begin by first reflecting on the previous year and then coming up with a goals list for the year ahead. If you caught my 2024 Recap post then you are up to date, and patiently waiting for me to reveal the secret project I finished last year (don't worry that's coming next). There is nothing I love more than the sense of accomplishment you get from crossing things off of that to-do list. Lists help me stay on track and remain focused on what to do next. And while not everything gets crossed off of the list when I think it will (remember, life happens), it fills me with motivation to keep going, keep tackling, even if it is just one small change at a ...
