Behr Paint and Primer in Ashes, PB bedding, Homegoods striped pillows, and Skyline headboard As you may know, I painted my room a couple weeks ago and while doing so, learned a few things about myself in the process. First, I need to work out. I made a few rolls with the extended roller and […]
I’ve made the decision that I’ll be painting my bedroom this summer. I’ve decided on a gray–neutral enough to go with most but bold enough to make a statement. I’m hoping to do this at the end of the month (we’ll see…you know how these things go). Please let me know if you have any […]
I received a KitchenAid mixer for my bridal shower and had been anxious to put it to work. Suffice to say, it didn’t disappoint; it makes mixing so easy! I’ve never been a huge baking fan, but perhaps the tides will turn now that I have this helpful contraption on hand. All of the sudden […]

yellow ranunculus on my coffee table I’m planning on laying low this weekend. Perhaps I’ll be spontaneous and go out one night but as of now, my plans include some wedding crafts and other planning activities. Who knows, though–I heard it was supposed to be warm on Saturday, so I can’t promise that I’ll stay […]
