Five on Friday {Insta-Faves Edition}

Hi there, friends...

I know -- shocking, right??  But in the meantime, I wanted to share five of my faves from Instagram this week.  A couple of these are giving me some … [Read more...]

The Booth for Spring!

Hi there, friends!  I hope you enjoyed a great weekend - we had wonderful weather here, so I was on a spring cleaning binge.   I was hoping to tackle my front porch but we're still getting lots of pollen here so it's not quite time.  However, it's never too soon to plan so I'll be sharing some inspiration for my spring porch makeover later this week along with some upcoming furniture projects. But today I wanted to share my booth refresh that I … [Read more...]

In Case You Missed It (November)

Happy December!  I have to confess I was tempted to skip my November recap today and jump straight into Christmas decorating and DIY --  this is one of my favorite times of year and I have a few cool projects in the works and loads of ideas for more.  But, it didn't seem right to short-change the month of November.  It was  a good one!  And I hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving holiday and were able to linger among your loved ones for a … [Read more...]

In Case You Missed it: October

Oh my goodness.  November, y'all.   Over the weekend, I had to turn my heat on and we enjoyed our first fire of the season... well, the boys and I did anyway.  The hubs was off to enjoy his first weekend of hunting season.  So I got my craft on in a huge way and got my booth all squared away for our Holiday Open House later this week!  I'll share pics on Wednesday, but for today I'm recapping a very busy October.  Just in case you missed it.

#Wordsmatter: HOPE

Ah finally -- a weekend that, in spite of being somewhat busy, was refreshing. And I needed refreshment.  And some time to reflect on the week and this journey that I'm on -- getting healthy and re-evaluating. As I've raised my children and taught many others, one of the things I have said over and over is that words matter.  Words can lift up and encourage and validate another.  And words can also tear down, poison, and crush another.  In … [Read more...]

Director’s Office Makeover {a Labor of Love}

I can't believe it's September, can you?  It feels like we've already been in school forever, but I'm never quite ready to give up summer.  Plus we inevitably have a heat wave in September that has you bemoaning the fact that the neighborhood pool is closed.  It's one of those weird weather months around here so I'm leery to welcome fall just yet. Thank you so much for your words of encouragement and love for us and my stepson.  It was … [Read more...]
