Simple DIY Photo Ornament
Sometimes the simplest projects are the best. I have truly done a 180 with our Christmas decorating...I used to have little figurines, and stuff in every room. And while I still love to add that special touch to most of our home, it's much simpler. It's amazing what...
antibes green & aubusson blue davis cabinet
It's a wonderful life. We're busy, and yet, I find that we are fighting for simplicity. We are choosing to say no to some activities this year, and honestly, we've gotten too sick for some. As bittersweet as it is to miss some of these things, we have had time to...

dreamfield farms & pumpkin patch
I know we're all neck-deep in Christmas decorating, but I had to share some of the moments we captured at the pumpkin patch this year. It's one of my favorite traditions we share as a family, and while Matt didn't get to make it this year, it was still so special. I...
cottage chest makeover
Well, it seems like forever since I've shown you a furniture makeover around these parts. I've painted plenty, but rarely gotten around staging and shooting. So I've decided to be a little less worried about such things, and snap a picture literally as the pieces are...

on having
We move too fast. We need for too little, and move way. too. fast. Sometimes God places these gentle desires in my wretched heart, and eventually they grow & blossom into my desires. Other times he's as subtle as a mack truck. He'll ram me with piercing...

Christmas Decorating Inspiration
We love the holidays around here. Christmas is my absolute favorite time of year, and each year brings a magic and beauty that only come from Him. In light of my love for all things holiday decorating, I wanted to compile a collection of past posts to inspire the...
our ribbon cutting & holiday styling
It's a beautiful Sunday afternoon, and I'm up at the shop for Holiday Open House. Quiet moments have been hard to come by this first week of opening, so I thought I'd tuck this one away for you. I've missed you guys fiercely, and this week things should hopefully...
dear ava, my little fashionista
Dear Ava, your boots knock my socks off. And so do your sash-sporting, big bow styling, skirt & leggings-combo getups. And your shoes. Mercy, girl. The hair bows are pretty much to die for. And so are you, my dear. I hope you know how beautiful you are, with or...
the grand opening day
We made it. In a little over 30 days, we took this place from this... to this. The weeks leading up to the shop opening literally took the wind out of me. We were eating fast food at every turn, sleeping little, drinking lots of caffeine and no water, and if I'm...
happy veteran’s day!
Yesterday was a whirlwind of laughs, conversations, beeping registers, and drawings. We were blessed beyond measure and honestly could not have expected what happened. We'll share more about our Grand Opening with you this week. We are mindful, though, this weekend...
The Grand Opening Details!!!!
Boy, have I missed y'all. I've never quite found a level of busy like this. We have literally worked around the clock, and now, finally, we are breathing again. All the time, energy, and work is already paying off, and I could honestly not wait any longer to share...
day 29: the last day
Well I'm out of days. I will say I'm quite pleased I even managed 29 out of 31 days in the busiest month of my life. Yesterday, I literally felt as if my head would spin and spin and spin until it popped completely off. Really. We ran in and out of the shop all day,...
day 28: the community & the shop at night
I grew up here. 20 miles down the highway, but here. I never minded being a small-town girl. I knew that had nothing to do with where I was going or what I was going to do. I will say after some of my life, I was ready to be out of dodge. That's "away from here" for...
day 27: the styling & the grand opening date
To say that I'm a leeetle aggravated that I've lost my 7D's USB is a bit of an understatement. Here we are. It's the end of the 31 days we've spent together on this journey to open our shop, and I can't even show you progress day by day. I'd love to catch up on the...
