The Gift {to} Gather

10/07/2019 By Bre

Hello friends!! Thank you SO much for all of your sweet comments over the weekend, as I shared who my grandmother was to me, and the impact she had on my life! I dedicated my book to her, and after sharing it with everyone on Instagram, I knew I just had to share more of who this amazing woman was! You can read all about my grandmothers house HERE, in case you missed it, but after reflecting on the type of woman she was, it got me thinking – “How did she do it all?” If you have ever struggled with getting together with others, or even inviting someone over, you are in good company my friend, because so have I! Today I’m sharing the struggles I’ve felt, and the gift it is when we gather.

My Grandmother’s House

10/05/2019 By Bre

What a week it has been!! A whirlwind, but it has been so much fun celebrating the release of my book with you all week long!! I shared in my Instagram stories on Monday about who I dedicated my book to. My grandmother. I was so blessed to group up with a grandmother who only lived 8 minutes across town. My sisters and I would always ask my mom if we could go over for a visit, and I’m so thankful her door was always open. I learned so much in those visits at my grandmothers house, and today I’m sharing my book dedication to her.

Currently Loving {vol.3}

05/17/2019 By Bre

Happy Friday friends!!! I had a post all lined up for today, but decided it’s been way too long since I’ve shared a “favorites” post with you. You know the ones that have no rhyme or reason, where I share just what I’m loving right now, or things that have caught my eye! It’s kind of like a mash-up of all the little things that have been making my heart go pitter-pat, so today I’m sharing a little round-up of what I’m currently loving for you!

Allowing our Homes to Refresh Others

05/13/2019 By Bre

Happy Monday friends! Last week was a blur! I had a few more posts planned for last week, and you know what – life happened! And it got me thinking, how often do we allow our homes to refresh others? So today I’m sharing a bit about home, and some heart ramblings from my past week.

Writing Your Dreams Down

05/02/2019 By Bre

Friends, I can’t even begin to tell you how valuable and important this step is! Write your dreams down! If my list of 35 things I wanted to have done by the time I turned 35 was any indication, I’m about to give you some more proof as to why you should take the time to write those dreams down.

It’s ok if you don’t have your Dream House

04/29/2019 By Bre

Holy smokes long title, but there really is just no shorter way of saying it! It is ok if you don’t have your dream house and yes I believe that it makes you a better decorator! I think we all start off with a dream house in mind, at some point in our lives. Heck I still get visions what my dream house would look like. But I bet for most of us we aren’t living in those dream houses we imagined we’d have. And if you are, I am SO happy for you, and I bet there is still a little something you can get out of this post too! So why is it that not living in our dream homes makes us a better decorator?

I felt like a bad Mom

03/17/2019 By Bre

I remember feeling like a bad mom. Not like I made a mistake and feeling remorse, but I remember feeling like I was completely failing as a mom, and that made me a terrible mother. 7 years ago I was in the throws of toddler hood with an 18 – month old and a 3 year old. I stayed at home full time with my babies (still do – only now they are in school), which had always been a dream of mine, ever since I was a little girl.

How I came up with Naming my blog “Rooms For Rent”

03/11/2019 By Bre

This idea stemmed from the last 2 interviews I’ve done, they’ve both asked me this very question. And while I shared a short abbreviated answer there, sometimes it’s nice to have a little more details, or insight perhaps, as to how I came up with the name, and why I chose to stick with it. I guess I should start off first by telling you that I hate naming things! Or having to come up with a name. Seriously, I’d rather do the dishes after Thanksgiving dinner than to come up with a catchy, yet descriptive and very permanent name for something! Talk about pressure.

Happy Valentines Day!

02/14/2019 By Bre

While I don’t have any gift ideas or Valentine’s day crafts to share with you, I did want to take a moment and leave you this note. A thank you note of sorts if you will.
