Furniture Feature Friday | no. 1
Welcome to our first Furniture Feature Friday 2.0, number 1! Yay! I can’t tell you how glad I am that I brought this back in a new format.

Finishing Touches & $500 Arhaus Giveaway
We’ve only been in our home for a few weeks, so we’ve mostly focused on the big picture – painting the walls, giving the kitchen a makeover, and finishing the porch-turned-studio. But, as we’re getting settled, I’m also looking for those finishing touches that can be added to bring a room closer to completion. I […]
decorating above the kitchen cabinets
Decorating above the kitchen cabinets is something I haven’t given dedicated thought to for years! I do remember the time, though, when above the cabinets was prime decorating real estate. I had my kitchen looking like a Cracker Barrel with varying heights, carefully crafted vignettes, and lots of unique collectibles. We’re talking a vintage Coke […]

A few months ago, I was browsing around on Etsy and found a simple linen dress that looked comfy, but stylish. I ordered two. They are now a wardrobe staple for me and I’ve added more linen dresses to the mix. I also started working with that Etsy shop, as a blog sponsor. The shop […]
kitchen shelves & the butler’s pantry
Now that the cabinets are painted, I’m hoping to finish some other parts of the kitchen over the next few weeks. The freshly painted cabinets and walls are a great backdrop, but the kitchen needs some more texture and warmth. I am on the hunt for fabric to make curtains for the eating area, family […]
