My neighbor and I were chatting about decor (of course). She moved here from the city about a year ago, and we got on the topic of throw blankets. She said, “It’s just me and my husband.

It's finally time to share the final installment of the New Year, New Room Challenge hosted by my friend Stephanie of Casa Watkins Home. Rather than a full room makeover, I took on a smaller project and decided to organize the kitchen pantry because it was a hot mess. Is it Pinterest perfect where everything is in a matching canister?

I'm not quite ready for fall, but I am here for 73° temperatures. Let's get into a[...]

To keep the process organized, I’ve created a handy dandy, free declutter your home checklist that will be sent to your i[...]
