I'm so relaxed and recharged after a random Monday off. Having a whole day to myself let me catch up on my house projects, a couple of crafts and some thrifting felt great. I even came home with some goodies I will share soon! Recently, it seems we've been talking about the houses we put offers on before this one. It took us a really long time to find this place and during our search we put offers on three houses that we ended up losing to bidding wars or stupid bank circumstances. Not that … [Read more...]

And if everything falls into place, when I … [Read more...]
tuesday Crush – peacock teal
Do you get crushes in your life? A crush on a color, accent, texture, material, tool? Anything? I find myself falling for certain things in my life. My current crush is on peacock teal.
