During the Christmas season, I like to keep decorating around our house simple. Aside from our tree and a few tchotchkes, most of our decor is winter-themed rather than Christmas per se. I began this a few years ago when it didn’t feel quite right to start pulling Christmas decor out in early November. However, […]
Woodland Wreath & One Item Project Challenge (Twigs)
I’m thrilled to be kicking off the One Item Project Challenge today. If you recall, I started this series two years ago as motivation to get a few projects done before the busy Christmas season, as well as the opportunity to collaborate with some of my blogger friends. Working by myself from a home studio […]
Changing of Seasons: Fall Front Porch
Thank you to The Home Depot for collaborating on today’s post and helping me create our fall front porch. As always, opinions are 100% my own. Perhaps you’re still getting summer temperatures where you live, but we’re in to full fledged fall around here! Leaves are starting to descend from tree tops and sunsets are […]

Spring Front Porch: Adding Cottage Charm
Thank you to Balsam Hill for collaborating on today’s spring front porch post in the spirit of Mother’s Day. As always, opinions are 100% my own. Until last week, I wasn’t sure if I was ever going to pull out my flip flops again. Winter had been hanging on ever so tightly, and the opportunity […]
Nature Inspired Easter Tablescape
Easter is just around the corner, and I thought it would be fun to create a new tablescape for our family gathering. After this long harsh winter, nothing makes me happier than seeing the freshness and vibrancy of green mixed with natural elements of Spring. This year’s table is all about embracing simplicity. Putting a […]
Decorating the Christmas Tree {Our House}
Wow, Christmas is one week from today. My son returns home from college tomorrow, and I’m thrilled to spend some much-needed quality time as a whole family! As promised, today I’m sharing a look at our decorated Christmas tree and how I wrapped up all of the gifts. It’s definitely a departure from the light, […]
My Version of the Book Page Wreath
If you’re on Pinterest, a book page wreath isn’t anything new to you. I’ve been wanting to make one of these after admiring them for more than two years. When Tara from Suburble invited me to participate in a Canadian wreath blog hop (we’ll get to that), I knew it was the perfect opportunity to […]
