Arabesque dresser | take two
I shared the first styling of the Arabesque dresser a few days ago. I brought in an heirloom wedding ring quilt from home and we played up the sweetness of the dusty pink color with some fun knobs and cheerful flowers. I think this is a pretty typical way to view pink. But, I wanted to show […]
made to crave & whole 30
This is the raw post I was talking about writing. This doesn’t have anything to do with home decor or painted furniture. It has to do with me and a constant struggle I’ve had since middle school. This post is about food, body image, addiction and cravings. It’s going to be real and honest. I’m […]
