It’s taken me awhile to get my act together in decorating the master bedroom. I think my rationale is that no one sees it but Eric and me so it’s down low on the house priority list. But I also love having a sanctuary to every evening so I’m trying to move it along. Most […]
We’ve been in an unprecedented quarantine for what, six weeks now? I’ve been craving new ways to keep things normal and even special, all while social distancing. Back in February, when this pandemic was a mere twinkle in our eye, I went to an all-day event hosted by MacKenzie-Childs, where we learned about the brand, […]
These are trying times. So trying that I’m sharing a review of the Bissell steam mop here on the blog (but honestly, I received so many messages about it, I feel like it’s my civic duty now!). We’re all home SO MUCH. And I think some would think, “my house will be so clean because […]

It’s here! Behold: our long-awaited master bathroom renovation reveal. Join me for a good before and after along with what we learned during the process. We have never done home renovations so this has been quite the journey for us…and I have to say–I can see how people say it’s addicting. What did we do? […]
Today is a bit of a catch-all post for me–maybe it’s more of an instagram round up of what I’ve been posting lately? Yeah…that’s it. That’s what I’ll call it. Web Happenings (who says “web” anymore?)
