About a year ago, we got rid of our large, heavy, black dining room table and chairs. They were beautiful but took up so much space and were hard to move around. At the time, with the baby coming, we felt we could better use the space as a play area and eventually purchase aContinue reading “A new dining room”
A Tale of Two Cabinets
These two pieces of furniture came to me via the online garage sale site and from a sweet friend who needed the two pieces furniture gone.

These two beautifulContinue reading “Furniture Finds”

Summer House Updates
The summer is flying by! Holy cow, there are school supplies out at Target and Walmart. Makes me a little sad but at the same time, that is part of the seasons changing and life working itself back into a normal routine. With COVID last year, it seemed like summer lasted forever.
