ironstone, linen tea towels, quilts & more
Last week, I set out to find a desk for Calvin’s room in a local antique store and, while I was out, I picked up a few things to list in the online shop. I found a bunch of ironstone – some very pretty tureens were the highlight, but I also got sugar jars, small […]
farmhouse holiday series | fall family room
In this second installment of the farmhouse holiday series, we’re all sharing our fall family rooms… I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, but I don’t do much in the way of fall decorating. I’ll put out a couple of pumpkins, a bowl of apples, etc. and just leave it at that. In […]
progress in Calvin’s room…

fall porch photoshoot
Thursday morning, I hit the snooze button a few times and then lazily scrolled through Instagram with one eye open until I felt like I could function enough to coax myself out of bed. My throat had been sore for a couple of days and now I could feel that I didn’t just have a […]
30-day watercolor challenge
Hang in there with me while I experience my own personal renaissance! I am just having such a wonderful time allowing my creativity to spill into other mediums. This seems to be what happens to me and I’m going to embrace it fully with a 30-day watercolor challenge. Music and theatre were always my […]
