Finding extraordinary joy in our ordinary home. Come join us.
We’ve only been completely finished with the kitchen for a few months and we already made a change. That was a trick photo, as the update isn’t visible in the photo. Also, to be fair, it was a change we knew we might want to make–adding a garbage disposal back underneath the sink. We had one in the old kitchen, but we didn’t replace it when we upgraded to our farmhouse sink because there wasn’t a
I meant to post this little update on Monday, but it’s now Thursday and the week is almost over again. I suppose I should be pleased the weekend is almost back around, but the week has flown by so much I still feel like I’m playing catch up with work projects. Anyway, I figured I’d go ahead and share a little recap of our Easter weekend. First of all, I have tulips on Easter! Three
A few weeks ago, Kirkland’s reached out to us to see if we wanted to do some style “window shopping.” Because I like to shop, and because I’ve been feeling totally stuck on finishing off our master bedroom, I was excited to spend a few minutes browsing their website for ideas. I wanted something that felt fresh and clean, and that would pair with our existing wall color, because Wyatt really doesn’t want to have
Over the weekend, I took a few minutes to add some Easter decor around the house. And when I say a few minutes, I mean it. We have so much going on right now that decorating for Easter wasn’t a big priority. Still, it’s nice to add a bit of festiveness, especially because we’re going to be hosting my family for Easter this year. I printed a few new free printables for the clipboard wall.
It’s not #FreebieFriYAY, but I wanted to go ahead and share a sweet little print I made for my spring clipboard collection. And yes, technically, I missed the first day of spring, but I think the fact that it snowed here on Sunday morning (the first day of spring) and today it’s 65 degrees and sunny makes it appropriate to share this today, anyway, right? I like to design all my own prints for this
I always get the urge to freshen up our decor for springtime. Anyone else? So, in honor of the first day of spring coming up next week, I spent a little bit of time over the weekend making a new “wreath” for the front door. To be honest, it’s not a wreath at all. And it’s not made from fresh flowers (fake lasts forever and real ones don’t, sadly) but it still fells fresh and
Happy Friday, friends! I’m back with another #FreebieFriYAY print to share with you. If you look a few posts back at my potted plant update, you might see a little glimpse of a fun print I made around Valentine’s Day. Even though that holiday of lovey-dovey mushy-gushy stuff is over, I have left the print up because it’s honestly one of my favorite quotes. I mean, there’s just so much emotion there, right? Oh Ms.
First, let me say that I realize with this project we’ve officially placed ourselves firmly in the “NOT vegetarian” category. But, to be honest, we were pretty far in that category to begin with. I think I’ve served Wyatt a total of 2 recipes ever that he has said he doesn’t mind the fact that there is no meat involved. (Breakfast cereal not included, of course.) Yep, we’re a beef-eating family, for sure. Although considering we’re
If you’re a very, very observant reader, you would have noticed a slight update in my last post about our new potted plants. I’ll show you again: Catch it? How about now? Good eye! I updated the plate wall a little bit. (Of course, the title of this post should have given you a pretty big clue.) For the how-to on our original plate wall post, click here. I talk about how I made DIY
Time for a little mid-week quiz…who here knows what I majored in in college? Did you say Communications? That would be correct! But if you said English, that would also be correct! It’s no secret I’m a reader, and when it comes to the classics, I’m a fangirl for Twain, Jane Austen, and Shakespeare for sure. And, of course, I’m excited to share those literary giants with Will. It doesn’t get much cooler than a baby in a
