I love being able to connect with my blog readers, and sometimes it leads to meeting in person. Robin and I were messaging back and forth on Instagram, she was looking for ways to support her sons wellness, who was getting sick all the time. Found out she lived around the corner from me so I dropped her off some oils and a diffuser. She gave me a tour around her home. I snuck a picture of her master bedroom, and told myself I would be back to makeover her bedroom. This time of year I especially love being able to give the gift of comfort and safety. Plus it is a gift that will last all ... Read More

Christmas Front Porch with Fresh Greens and Pink Front Door
We brought Christmas to our front porch! Just wanted to show you. Nothing fancy. Just cleaned the steps. Hung the lights. Strung the garland. Bought a Charlie Brown Tree. Done. And had a handsome, helpful husband by my side. Just wish there was a skiff of snow! Just a pretty blanket of snow. This year I used all fresh garlands and tree from Home Depot. I had the baskets I had found at Home Goods and since our porch is covered, I thought they might do just fine. Especially since we have had that hanging door basket on our door for well over a year and no weather ... Read More

We added a little Christmas to our upstairs family room before out guests came this weekend. I LOVE having a Christmas Tree in this room, even if it is small tree.
