Spring mantel (plus how to stage your mantel to sell your house)

March 22, 2016

Hello, hello!  Yes I am still alive.  A bit buried in a cloud of yellow pollen, stacks of boxes, and a to-do list that has actually become a to-do notebook at this point.   I hopefully will have a house/moving update post for you very soon but want to make sure things are truly officially […]

Use paint to create a fresh start in your home this year

January 27, 2016

Whew… let’s just say if I had to pick a word for the year it would be “CHANGE.”  I think at this point it may be easier to list the things that won’t change in the coming months or year instead of the things that will.    But change can be good and I am […]
