Creating a lovely home, one budget-conscious project at a time.
I can’t believe I’m having a niece (my first one)! She will be here soon and we’re anxiously anticipating her arrival! Last weekend we had a lovely Jack & Jill baby shower in honor of her. I had so much fun planning out all the details and hosting the event. My sister didn’t want the …
Hey, hey, it’s DIY Friday! I want to share with you a project I made for a friend for her birthday that just passed. I think with all the craziness that has been my life for the past few years, I’ve sort of lost touch with giving meaningful gifts to my dear friends. I don’t …
The holidays are just my favorite time of year. The hustle and bustle, the excitement of gift giving, seeing the generosity of humans doing what they do best, showing kindness to each other. I know there can be a lot of ugliness out in the world, but I choose to see the positive and DO …
I can’t believe it’s been over a year since I’ve last posted. Just thinking back to when I had to put this blog on hold due to my stepson’s diagnosis of leukemia feels like it was just yesterday, and yet it feels like it was a lifetime ago, because so much has happened. We spent …
Good evening! Today’s post is going to be short, easy and sweet! As you saw on my post on Tuesday, I went with some text for my front door instead of a wreath. It’s my way of telling the world what we’re praying for this holiday season. And it’s super easy to do, too! Here …
Good afternoon! I hope you had a fantastic Thanksgiving! It was a bit of a whirlwind, I can’t believe how fast this weekend went. Did you do any Black Friday shopping? I went out twice, I was such a nut! The early 7am one I almost didn’t make because I only had 3 hours of …
Howdy, everyone! Thank you for stopping by! It’s been so cold this week, I’m freezing my tush off whenever I go outside! Winter is finally here…womp womp. I’m supposed to do outdoor decorations this week and I have no idea how I’m going to do it with this weather. I hope it warms up a …
Thank goodness it’s Friday! We have a busy week and a half ahead of us with Evey’s 4th birthday, Thanksgiving, and my little’s sister’s 30th birthday so definitely had to be extra productive this week! I’ve been scrambling around with my to-do lists and making sure we’ll have all that we need. For Evey’s party, …
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…! Anyone else got holiday music on already? I love this time of year, can you tell?! One year I started listening to Christmas music in September, hahaha! But, it was Michael Buble’s Xmas album, I can listen to that guy any time. *sigh* He has the voice …
Happy Friday the 13th! So ecstatic that it’s Friday and we’re getting ready for the weekend! I was at Michael’s on Wednesday picking up some things for the holiday decor that’s going up this weekend and can I just say how adorable some of their stuff is?!? I am loving all the glitzy and glam ornaments …
