Fall Decor Ideas in our Living Room
I took a couple hours to refresh our front room for fall! I really just moved things around from one room to the next. Honestly seasonl changes should just feel like changes, they don't have to be bought at a certain isle at the store. I do like adding texture for fall and richer colors. Let's see how I did... Living Room Quick Before Photo- Living Room After Photo with Fall- The only new thing I bought were these velvet pillow covers. Everything else I just moved around. And yes, when I move things it ends up being a domino effect! Which isn't a bad things, breaths new life ... Read More
Why you should paint your storm door and 4 ways to create a fall porch
Imagine you are all ready for a fancy date night. Perfect dress, shoes, accessories, etc. Everything is cohesive in complimentary shades of color. Then you realize it is raining so you throw on an old white rain coat.. You may be dry, but it sort of ruined the look, right? Your home's exterior is a lot like that! If your storm door doesn't match the color of your front door, you may be drawing attention to the wrong thing! Storm doors serve a purpose and they sure are nice to have, but you don't want it screaming to the street or to stick out like a sore thumb! Thank you The Home Depot ... Read More
Fall Front Porch with New Paint on Front Door
We painted our door a different version of the pink…a little richer, more of a salmon pink. I felt ready for a change, but we still love a pink door, it is fun to be "the house with the pink door". Painting your front door is an easy update, it can be a fun seasonal change and decorating our front porch seasonally is probably one of my favorite things. Why is decorating my porch my favorite thing? Thanks for asking! I got thinking about it after I spotted a 12' skeleton at The Home Depot. At first I walked by it and thought, that is ridiculously large and crazy. Why would you put a huge ... Read More

Trader Joe’s Favorite PALEO Foods
A blog reader recently asked me to share my favorite paleo foods I buy from Trader Joe's! I thought that was a great idea. In the past I have shared a Trader Joe's Top 40 Favorites, but a lot of it I don't actually buy myself. It was a "Most Popular Trader Joe's Items" kind of list that everyone loved. But when I personally shop at Trader Joe's I stand there and read all the labels, some I know without even picking up that the item it isn't paleo. A pizza sauce for instance might have some sneaky sugar in it, even sausages and other foods you wouldn't think have sugar do! So if it is packaged ... Read More
Fall Front Porch and Tile Front Steps
If you follow me on instagram then you saw we made a little change to our front porch! We added tile on each of the front of the steps! I actually was thinking of painting some sort of pattern with the black stripes we had, maybe a buffalo check pattern- kind of like a rug up the steps. But on second thought, I felt it would look too "crafty" ha! So I typed "painted steps" into Pinterest hoping for some inspiration. And in the painted steps search, I saw some stenciled, tile looking front steps- just on the front of each riser. Loved the look. But hate to stencil. So we came up with another ... Read More
Diffuser Round-Up and Why I ditched Candles
Hi, my name is Brooke, and I am a recovering candle addict. I loved the feeling of HYGGE they'd lend to my home. I always sort of knew that they were toxic, but I would allow myself the indulgence. Imagine my excitement when I discovered that I can get the EXACT same cozy, warm atmosphere with a diffuser! I started Essential Oils as a hope that they would help my daughter with her nervousness at night. We were desperate for a change, Kevin and I were out of ideas. She really was struggling to relax enough and being able to calm herself to go to bed. It was hard on her and our ... Read More
