I am constantly in awe of the beauty that is all around me if I have my eyes open to it. Sometimes I find it as I am going to sleep knowing all of my kids are home, watching our children become their own beautiful people, getting my studio ready for my creative...
I believe spaces should be used well, beauty should not be saved just for company and home should reflect the hearts that live there and not just the trends we see around us. I am not a designer but putting home together has been my heart for as long as I can...
I am constantly in awe of the beauty that is there if you have your eyes open to it. Sometimes it will be the little things like digging for vintage treasures with dear friends, foraging in the woods, building the first fire of the season in the studio, and the beauty...
Simple tools and supplies that turn into something extraordinary is really the sweetest gift of being a maker. Seeing what can be instead of what is! As we have built this network it has always been my dream to bring in artists of all kinds. This year I am so excited...

Once the house is clear of Christmas and spring in Colorado is still months away…there is this in-between of seasons. This is the time when I like to organize, still honor winter with textures and layers throughout the home, candles, pine branches from...
In this episode, I am talking with Myquillyn Smith. She is a lover of all things home, her mantra is “it doesn’t have to be perfect to be beautiful” and she loves to help others live well in their homes too. I can’t forget that she is also a Wall Street...

I love that I have had the opportunity to be a part of many home tours over the years because our real holidays do not get documented. When you have company over, you are rotating what goes in the oven and you are talking with your favorite people and there is...
We have been wanting to take our gallery wrapped prints and make them even more special (and instantly ready to hang) by having them custom framed with poplar wood. We wanted to make art not only more affordable with the prints but to have the attention to detail with...
Welcome to the last blog post before Christmas for the Seasons of Home Holiday Series. It is always so much fun to share our home and to see all of the inspiration from everyone else in the tour. This tour was created by Kristen Whitby or Ella Claire and the whole...
When we first saw our home and land it was covered in snow but out of my future studio windows I saw this opening in the trees and I immediately imagined lights, a long farm table and a gathering place for family and friends. Over the past year and a half, we...

It has been 2 1/2 months since we have been in our new home and land. In some ways it feels like we have been here forever and then we are reminded we don’t even know this land or home yet. Before we moved in we had the whole interior painted white and all of...

I am not a design or DIY blog so I am always humbled and honored when bloggers that I adore and admire ask me to be a part of their home tours. This means so much to me because family, faith and friends mean everything to me and HOME is so much at the center of it...

One of my very favorite things in the whole world is having people in our home and feeding them well. One of the ways I try to make the meal special is the simple details I put into the tablescape. I rarely need to buy much and try to use what I have but make it...
