We all reach our breaking point sooner or later, and with today’s hustle culture, I think we’re all closer than we think. I for one didn’t see it coming when the tiredness came on at a level I had never experienced. The adult acne consumed my face. And everything that I used to love slowly di[...]
Space is precious. The space that you leave in your day to go for a walk or meditate. The space you take up when speaking your mind and honoring yourself. And the space that you live in and the objects that occupy it. All avenues of space are precious because they’re limited and therefore what fi[...]
I thought it was just me craving more simplicity, more slow, more quality and less quantity. When I started my journey of slow living, I knew that I was on a level of burnout I hadn’t been before and thought, this will help me heal. Maybe it will even help my find happiness again. It did. But[...]
I saw it come to life as I listened to the Highwomen’s self-titled song for the 100th time. The stories of these women, unnamed and unknown, highlighting what they sacrificed for the world. How their lives made the lives of women to come better. It’s a story as old as time. What the marginalize[...]

Wallpaper is now just one more way to add story to your home along with color, pattern, texture, and just pl[...]
The only mid-west fall I’ve seen was when I was 6-years old in Michigan and it was the tale end of it. We were spending Thanksgiving with my Aunt and uncle and their backyard felt like a magical land. Having come from the rocky mountains I was only used to aspen leaves but finding chestnuts and o[...]
I’ve never been one for Halloween. As a child I liked the costumed and the trick or treating but as I got older the holiday felt forced. It was a lot of skimpy costumes and drinking for no real reason. For some of you, this could be the breaking point of our relationship because I know how bel[...]
Limitations often create the greatest art. Through college and my early 20’s, I didn’t have much disposable income so buying new pillows, wreaths, or any form of holiday home decor wasn’t really an option. If I wanted to design a space that felt like home, I was going to have to get creati[...]
In the last year I’ve gotten really into following the cycles of the moon. Not because I think that moon magic will all of a sudden make my deepest wishes come true, but because it’s creates this natural rhythm within my life that allows me to check in and feel really grounded. The same kind of[...]
