Cottagecore Home Guide
In reality, we don’t all live in a perfect little cottage, deep in the woods. But we can easily transform the inside of our own abodes, making home feel more like a cottage (without any renovations).
Kitchen Ideas - Floating Shelves
Floating shelves in the kitchen are commonplace nowadays, but making a decision to add them to the kitchen isn’t always straightforward. The main questions are always “what size”, “what location”, “what purpose”, and “what finish”.
5 Ways to Love Your Home - Simple Renovation Ideas
Anything you do to improve your home should also improve or add to your life. Life is too short to be improving things simply for the monetary reward, especially if it's the place you actually call home.
Before You Build Your Dream Home
Most people that buy land, and build on their own, will tell you that it was a long and crazy process. Is this something that you're willing to endure and put your family through? It just depends right?
Inspiring Homes - August 2018
Here are a few of the most inspiring spaces that I have been looking at lately:
The Benefits of Rest
Perhaps the extra trips to the gym aren't benefiting us if we're not sleeping enough.
Rustic Hygge
Imagine for a minute, you're on the open road, sharing life with the people you love, listening to Bon Iver, and watching the sun rest behind the the pines. It's beautiful, it's glorious, and you feel a warmth that you can't describe.
Create A Beautiful Desertscape
If you're in a climate that allows for a desert landscape, it's worth considering. Desertscapes are low maintenance and beautifully simple.
Eclectic Homes
Homes resonate who we are as human beings; our unique freckles, our unique piles of books, the freckles accumulate over the years, as do the books.
Your Five Senses At Home
Our homes, regardless of how they are, will infiltrate our senses. The taste, the smell, the sound, the feel, and the sight.
Creative Home Decor Ideas
There are no rules when it comes to home decor, and the more your home is a true representation of your own style and comfort, the more of a "home" it truly is.
On A Budget : Road Trips
This summer, instead of enrolling your children in endless extracurricular activity (like camps, lessons, etc.), why not take a few road trips? They are likely more memorable, and will be a time to create memories together as a family.
Outdoor Creative Play For Toddlers
A little shade, some water, and natural materials is all they really need.
Creative Backyard Ideas
Transforming a backyard into an oasis can have its challenges, especially when the budget is limited. When a budget is limited you are often propelled into creativity, and with determination, a backyard can become a beautiful space, one that offers time for self-care and rest.
Make the Most Out of Your Kitchen
Before calling local contractors or a home remodeling service practice loving your kitchen for a while, and then assess whether or not a remodel is necessary.
Giving Our Children An Active Childhood
An active childhood isn't something that we can tangibly hand to our children through a gym membership or a spot on the soccer team, it's something we do with them. An active childhood is created by making carefree memories together, through exploration, play, and adventure.
Self Care & Personal Healing
It's not until we offer up our own lives as a sacrifice that we find ourselves in a position for healing.
Kitchen Hygge
How in the world do we maintain hygge in a space that stays endlessly busy, (without eating out all the time)?
Five Ways to Sleep Better
Our daily rest begins with our evening rest, and if we're not able to sleep well, we're certainly going to struggle to find rest throughout the day.
Styling A Beautiful Home
I'm hopeful that without the media over-consumption we're better connected with the beauty that is within, and something both arbitrary and crucial, like the styling of our homes, would be rather effortless.
