Welcome to the lifestyle section. All the things that help me live a life recovered from anxiety, depression and being captive to negativity. Let’s carve out some space for your mind to breathe.
Bedroom Reveal
Can you believe this is my room? I can't either. I also can't believe it's finished. {Minus one vent cover}. So take a look. Next week I'll break down exactly how I did it. Where the bed now sits where that cramped office used to be. Upgrade. I walled off the old...
How to Score Free Pallets
This is a wooden shipping pallet. And this is what creative people are doing with them. A quick search on Pinterest for the word "pallet" will pull up all kinds of awesome project you...yes, YOU can make from a shipping pallet. There are whole boards committed to...
Window Boxes Tips, Tricks and Tutorials
The bedroom is pretty much done. I know, can you believe it? I can't. I did it. And I will even have a few days to spare before my family arrives from out of town. I pinky swear I'll show you the {nearly} finished project on Friday. I just want to get a few...
Isobel {Brand New & Beautiful}
Isobel's Newborn Session Isn't this precious? Remember the sneak peek from this adorable Mother's Day session? Well here's a full look. In case you missed it...this is Isobel. She was less than a week old at the time of our newborn session together. Isobel is so...
Sweet Seaside
There are few places that I'd visited are sweeter than Seaside, FL. It's so quaint it's nearly surreal. Have you seen that Jim Carey movie, The Truman Show? You know that precious too-cute-to-be-real town Truman grows up in? Well, that's Seaside, FL. Seaside is...
Dreaming of Done
Things are coming along quite well in the project department. As you can see, I'm not sleeping on the couch any more. As you may also be able to see...there are cords coming from my blanket. That's because at night it's only been around 40 degrees and it's an...

Mr. Gorbachev, Tear Down This Wall.
Dear Mr. Gorbachev, I tore down the wall. So it's almost 9pm on Monday night and I haven't had dinner. {Strike one.} And I haven't seen yesterday's episode of Mad Men. {Strike two.} I'll show you progress on the second floor renovation...before I strike out all...
Wanna Play?
I think we all have an Achilles Heel. Mine is board games. I may have alluded to it a few weeks back when I told you about Mall Madness. Really, though, you have no idea how much I love games. I love them. All of them. Not like, "Oh, I love to have game night." ...
My New Nemisis
Have you ever dealt with carpet glue? Me either until just a few days ago. Now it's my new arch enemy. I'm vowing here and now never, ever, ever to allow anyone ever, anywhere to use carpet glue in my house. It's just the worst. By now you probably know that I'm in...
Go Bananas {Twins Baby Shower}
I'm so excited to be showing you some highlights for a baby shower I threw yesterday. Not only was it fun, it was super special because it was a shower for...not one...but two babies! Yes, that's right, twins! The best part of any shower {for me at least} is picking...
Tawanda!
Please, oh please tell me you've seen the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes." It's a 90's classic. And you know how I feel about the 90's. {FIY I love the 90's.} For those of you poor suckers who haven't seen it, I'll give you a brief...very brief overview. And a tip: ...
