these are the ways we infuse our day-to-day lives with a little style to bring the cozy aesthetic that makes a space feel warm + welcoming
finding ways to make the mundane moments a little more inspired, seems to make all of life better. take it from these mailbox pretties. Back in the days of nap times + sleepless nights, i learned to find joy in the small moments of each day– like waiting on the mail to arrive. while staying […]
finally, a unique piece of art that reflects who you are + what you love at little to no cost to you. no one else will have the exact same piece as you + it can …
I have this thing…an appreciation for aesthetically pleasing combinations, with color, light, the way things are arranged + how they play off each other. So, when I try to explain how much I enjoy the endless combinations of wrapping paper + ribbon, well, forgive me if I write a book. For much of my youth, […]
my days in these first three months of 2019 have been hit + miss for early (sane) mornings, so as long as I stick to getting at least one devotional read with/preferably before breakfast, I am set for a great day with spiritual priorities in order.
The most passion-filled moments were in the arrival + departure, as they always are. The journey of coming + going deeply stirs my soul.
saturday was the day we have been waiting for! perfect weather + time to do many of the things we love together.

Happy Friday! I’m sharing a few thoughts on self-care today. When we get caught up in life’s responsibilities, be it work or family, friends or those in need, the importance of caring for ourselves can be easily lost in the shuffle—this is no secret! My own personal care checklist has been ever evolving since I […]
The addition of this joggling board to our porch has been a momentous one! I have a handful of vivid memories from growing up in Charleston, joggling with cousins + friends, so having one now on our porch to share with our family is a treasure + a treat! The gift arrived a few days […]
One of the things I love most about being in my thirties is knowing exactly what I like. Now, don’t let me fool you, there are a great many things I still do not know, in particular I still have trouble deciding what to cook/pickup tonight for dinner + which chore I should do first […]
We just celebrated our first Christmas in Georgia; it was enjoyable, relaxed + full of the magical wonder that children bring, along with a few surprises too. We wanted to keep things minimalist as possible simply because we are too blessed to want anything + are trying to teach the girls early + often about […]
Since moving in this past summer, our “rocking chair” (shallow) porch has been at the front of my mind, although at the bottom of the need to-do list. Slowly + patiently I have added elements to the porch while spending twice as much time dreaming up the look + feel of our cozy “rocking chair” […]
When I lived with my parents, there was a neighbor of ours who loved to start the BOO’s going in the neighborhood, except these were always welcome and festive boos. A simple poem / ghost would turn up on our front door or somewhere on the porch with a spooky fun Halloween treat. The […]
