The Upstairs Bathroom Mood Board
I've been calling this Greta's bathroom, but it's not solely her bathroom really.

Therefore, I wanted it to feel feminine, but also classic and clean […]

This whole corner is definitely a whole moment within the kitchen and can't you see why? I love having a designated place to display our serving platters and copper […]

Ranking the Top 7 Duvet Inserts on Amazon
After testing pillow inserts, we had so many requests to try duvet inserts next and I know exactly why! It can be so disappointing to spend so much money on an insert, only to have it literally fall flat. I personally think the fuller and fluffier, the better, but I also like a little bit […]

Hanging Fine Art in the Kitchen
I'm so grateful that things found in a kitchen can be so function and beautiful--whether you're using objects like copper pots and pans, wooden boards, bowls of fruit, or plates on display. A crock of wood spatulas. Mortar and pestles. Even every day dishes on display warm a kitchen. I even love the idea of […]
