capturing life through pictures...

Long ago when I began this little blog I documented spaces in our home I was being intentional with. I‘d share my efforts in creating haven or I’d share what we were consuming simply to document some of the things I felt were worth noting and/or remembering. I learned the most treasured outcomes were ones […]

I shared in a recent social media post that I diffuse essential oils to keep the air hydrated and purified around our home. We have a wood burning fireplace so a diffuser/air purifier is a must to keep the air from getting too dry. I discovered some amazing oils from Huckberry a few years back […]

Over the summer I worked on refreshing our work and play spaces… It’s always nice to have designated areas for these things especially when working from home or when having kiddos around. I think it’s a key to productivity and organization to be able to go to a space and have all the things you […]

It’s nesting time! I’ve been in baby mode lately getting all ready for this new bundle!! It’s been so long since the last baby I had some homework to do. I laugh because I’m always the first to tell new parents that you don’t need much when preparing for a new addition, but I’m finding […]

If you’re anything like me you’re always envisioning getting more done. Unfortunately, I’m always falling short of my aspirations. Ha! I tend to think I can accomplish more than I actually can. Not only is this true in projects and goals but also in having access to the tools and resources to get there. Luckily, […]

I try to bring something fresh into our space that inspires me from the season. This year I’m settling on adding a sustainable perspective. Rather than changing decor each season as a refreshment, I’m starting to think in a more timeless way. I’m searching for things that compliment the season but can also live on […]

This past month I worked on refreshing our bath space. We have been running ragged on towels and everyone is always looking for a towel or holloring downstairs that we’re out of clean ones. I updated that situation… I read somewhere that you should have 2-3 towels for each member of the family that way […]

I’m hoping to add some personal pieces to each space in our home this year… I try to focus on one area of our home each month to improve on. This past month I’ve been eyeing some folksy wall art from sugarboo and co for our bedroom that reminds me of the journey of two […]

As the autumn months start to fade away we find ourselves settling indoors and embracing the colder weather… the harvest is on its last leg and we begin the celebration of Thanksgiving. I host a family dinner each year so it always puts me in the mood to refresh the dining space. This year my […]

In all my years of keeping up with a family so far, I’ve learned that it’s never shy of chaos. Every time I chat with other women or families the conversation comes up… All of us are struggling to keep up! I recently listened to a great speaker talk on how there will always be […]
