Last September we bought our 1960’s rambler from the original owners’ son, who also happens to be our next-door neighbor. It’s been so fun to live next to people who love and know our house! As we’ve been working on projects we’ve texted them with questions about why things are a certain way or how […]

//via The warm weather is in full swing, and with it, so is spending time outside! Whether you’re grilling out, serving appetizers, or reading a book, an outdoor living space is crucial to a summer spent outside! And you don’t necessarily need a huge deck or sprawling patio to create an inviting space. Here are […]

It’s finally time for our new living room re-design reveal!!! I’ve been looking forward to this for quite some time (the re-design, more than the reveal… but I guess both are exciting!). Now, you may be thinking, “Heather, didn’t you guys just move into that house last Fall? Why in the world would you need […]

Today I’m excited to share with you our upstairs living room design plan. When we moved into our house last September, the basement had a large finished room, complete with sparkly popcorn ceilings, wood paneling, and bare bulbs. Not exactly the most welcoming (or cute!) place to hang out. The past couple months we’ve been working […]

I recently wrote about three goals I have for my home, which were more heart-oriented. Today I want to share with you ten practical goals that we have for our home (and life) for Spring! These are mostly home projects that we hope to get done in the next month and a half, as well as […]

//via Spring is here, and since taking down our Christmas wreath, our front door has felt a little bare and lonely. And I figured that some of you might be having that same problem, so I decided to go on the hunt for a pretty Spring wreath! There are some great ones out there! I think […]

Having goals is important so you know what direction you’re going in. And having goals for your home is no different. I’ve come up with 3 goals for my home to help guide my husband and I as we steward this gift God has given us. Welcome Without Reservations I want our home to be […]

Today we’re talking arm chairs! During a recent Craigslist pickup, I kind of fell in love with the arm chair situation in a stranger’s home, and ever since I can’t get them out of my head! So I’m on the hunt for an arm chair (or two) for our home. I think one of the reasons […]
