The last month has been insanely busy with a zillion things coming due at the same time; guest post project, work on the front door project, new items in the Etsy shop, a design job, and tons of travel for family events, Memorial Day, and vacation. In one month the little guy has had his… Read More
I’m not one to make resolutions at the start of the year, but this year was different. In 2016 my friend Alyssa and I opened an Etsy shop called Green Sea Designs where we sell prints of artwork we make from pressing marine algae found in our local waters. Over the next couple of years,… Read More
We moved into our mid-90s starter home almost nine years ago now and we’ve done a pretty good job of updating all of the spaces, except one. The space that has stayed original and totally dated is also the one that makes the biggest impression…our entryway. As you enter our front courtyard, you’re greeted by… Read More
It’s funny, last month I opened this talking about how it had still been in the 40s here and now it’s in the mid-80s everyday already…summer is here friends, and I am SO not ready. While I can do without hunting for a new bathing suit, I do love summer in terms of home decor. … Read More
It’s no shocker that it can get hot, hot, HOT here in south Texas. It feels like summer lasts almost nine months out of the year, which I’m sure many of you would be envious of right about now given the weather this winter across the country, but let me tell you it gets real… Read More
One space in our home that I haven’t shared much of is our other guest room. Not because I don’t like the room but more so because it was kind of always in a state of change or being shuffled around. It definitely used to be hideous (see the before on the house tour page),… Read More
I normally would start this off with a “happy spring!” sentiment, but I think most everyone, even us way down here in south Texas, are still feeling pretty winter-ish. It got into the 40s here on Saturday night which is crazy for April. I’m not complaining though, I love a good cold front, but it… Read More
Well, we’ve now got ourselves a one year old and have to say “toddler”, which is sad because technically I no longer have a baby, but also sad because “toddler” has sooo many assumed frustrations and connotations and it scares me, ha. Luckily we’re still doing pretty good and Connor is quite the happy little… Read More
So, here we are in March and we now have a toddler!! His party was Saturday and was a huge success…once he finally woke up from a nap an hour into it. We had so much fun with all our friends and family on a beautiful warm and sunny Spring Break day. I’ve got a… Read More
We had to combine our office and guest room last year to make room for Connor’s nursery, so that meant squeezing a queen sized bed into the room with my pipe shelves and little desk. The desk made it just tooooo cramped so out it went (along with a getting a little makeover itself) but… Read More
