My love of Anthropologie runs deep! Shopping in the store is a favorite activity of mine. So bright and colorful and why does it always smell so good there?! I gathered up my favorite Anthro Inspired diffuser blends that make my home smell just as good as the store. I even have a free printable! Sharing those and some of my favorite Anthropologie Christmas Decor finds! I ditched candles over 5 years ago after I learned scented candles and air fresheners contain harmful chemicals that can pollute our homes. I still wanted my home to smell good but wanted to do it in a natural way, so I ... Read More

Lights Under Pergola- Grouping of Outdoor Pendant Lights
I have wanted to do a big grouping of lights under our pergola for awhile, but I wasn't sure if they could all be hardwired under the pergola. I finally asked Chad, our friend who is an electrician and he said yes he could do it! He added conduit for the wires, which I was fine with and knew we could paint the conduit black to match the pergola if it was really noticeable and it isn't. With my sisters wedding in our backyard, that gave me the push to get pendant lights ordered and it was so worth it, they looked beautiful at the wedding!!!! This is what it looks like now, a collection of ... Read More
