It’s been ages since you have seen a post from me….almost a whole year! Life has certainly changed and hasn’t been easy, but I am finding my way on my own and learning to enjoy life again (as best I can as a single mom of four kiddos). I have been trying my best to make life as “normal” and good for the kids as possible and recently went all out decorating for Halloween for them. It is always a thrill to see the smiles…

Getting Back to Etsy & Creating
Wow, the month of November seems to be slipping right through my hands. I think this month always seems to go this way, which is a bit sad since this is my favorite time of year. It’s that cozy time before it gets too too cold, the leaves still have some color and are covering everything, and the holiday spirit is sprinkling in before the big “rush” to shop for Christmas. But, this season, I decided to change things up for myself and started spending time getting back to creating and listing items in my Etsy shop. And I have some exciting news about a new Etsy shop that I…

Vintage Style Halloween Decorating
This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission for any sales made through them. The cost to you remains the same. Halloween is upon us! To tell you the truth, it’s not my favorite holiday, but I have gotten into decorating for it since having children. They love Halloween. I try to find a balance of just enough cute and just enough spooky (and just enough vintage) to make us all happy. Today, I am sharing with you the spooky-ish, vintage style Halloween vignette, I decorated in our living room. We don’t have a mantel above our fireplace in this room, but we do have a bookshelf that works…

Simple Spring Entryway
I’m back again already! Can you believe it? Once I got back into the swing of taking photographs (with my actual camera and not my phone), I have had a lot of motivation to share more. It made me realize how much I have missed this creative outlet and the community I have come to know here. Today, I am sharing a few more photos I took of some simple spring decorating I have done around the house. Our entryway leads to the dining room on one side and living room on the other. It hasn’t gotten a lot of attention since we moved in a few years ago, but…

Spring in the Dining Room
Well, hello there! It has been quite awhile since I have been here! I am happy to pop in today to share with you a little spring/summer vignette in our dining room. Life has been all sorts of crazy over the past year and I have not really focused on the house or decorating or doing much of anything other than chasing kids around and making sure everyone else has what they need. But as my youngest two gain more independence (and one takes lengthy afternoon naps), and my older two are back to full time school, I am finding time to get back to some of the things I…

Vintage Valentine’s Day Mantel {blog rewind}
Happy February! With Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, I wanted to share an oldie but a goody (at least in my humble opinion!). We are going back to 2014 when I decorated our vintage mantel for the holiday of love. I didn’t buy anything new for this vintage inspired mantel vignette. I simply shopped my home and thought outside of the box. Back to Blogging Illness has been rampant in our home for the past few months. We’ve had the flu, stomach viruses and lots of colds pass through. Even poor little Fletcher caught RSV just before he turned three months. It has been a rough winter. I hope the groundhog…
