I'm sorry that I've been MIA since Christmas, but I enjoyed a lot of wonderful family time and I hope you all did as well. {Take a look at my Instagram feed if you'd like to see a little of how we celebrated.} But even while I was away from the blog, I was busy, busy, busy.

Easy Ways to Organize Jewelry
My love for inexpensive jewelry knows no bounds! If it's colorful, or sparkly, or chunky, I can't pass it up. And jewelry is always my favorite souvenir from my travels. I love that every time I wear the necklace Scott bought on our honeymoon in Greece, the ring I bought at a Christmas market in Madrid, or the elephant bracelet I got on our safari in South Africa, they are tangible reminders that keep the memories of those adventures alive. But I've learned that jewelry, like many other ... View the Post
Easy St. Patrick’s Day Decor: A Pot of Gold at the End of the Rainbow

Well, today I have a super easy idea to get those photos off your phone and decorate for St. Patrick's Day at the same time!

Happy Memorial Day! I hope that you are enjoying the day with family and friends, and taking time to remember and reflect on those who have served our country.

How to Paint a Chalkboard Globe
I have a bad case of wanderlust and, anytime a map is near, you'll hear me muttering "I want to go to there!" in my best Liz Lemon voice. I love to travel, and this carries over to a love of maps and globes {you can read more about my map obsession here}. I hope to instill in my boys a similar curiosity about the world and desire to explore, and that's why I will be incorporating several globes into Beckett's new room. I purchased a lighted globe that will double as a nightlight, and I am ... View the Post
How to Store Luggage and Organize Travel Gear At Home
I love to travel! Near... far... I'll go anywhere! And prepping for a trip is half the fun. I enjoy the process of researching and learning about new places as I plan our adventures. The list maker in me even loves to make a great trip prep to do list. When it came time to actually pack, though... that was the one part of the process I dreaded because my suitcases and travel accessories were a disorganized mess and finding what I needed was a headache. But no longer! I spent an ... View the Post
Rings Around the World: Our Wedding Ring Selfie Photo Tradition
You know that list of "must have" wedding photos that most couples give to the photographer in advance of the big day? Things like the bride's mom helping her zip up her dress, the groom's expression as the bride walks down the aisle, the cutting of the cake, and a close up of the wedding bands. Yeah...we forgot to make a list like that. We planned every detail of the wedding to a T, but giving the photographer a list of photos didn't even cross our minds. Our photographer did a wonderful ... View the Post
{decorating with style} What is the One Room Challenge?
Welcome October! I love fall, though I am always sad to see the summer end. This year the summer was particularly busy - between attending my first ever Haven Conference in July, two family weddings in August, and a trip to South Africa in September. I was looking forward to life slowing down a bit this fall, but then I decided that slow is overrated... That's why I am once again joining the One Room Challenge, which means that in just six weeks time I'll be making over one room of our house, ... View the Post

If you purchase something I recommend, you'll pay the same price, but I may receive a small commission. A few years ago, when asked to describe my home style in three words, I came up with MODERN.
