What’s been occupying my time lately? Working on creating my dream backyard. We have come a long way, but still so much to do. Here’s some snaps from today of the progress so far. I’m loving the oakleaf hydrangeas!

Local friends…when are we sending our “kids“ 🪴 to summer camp? I am so ready to get a bunch of my plants out of my house and leave them outside for the summer. I love how they make my outdoor spaces, like the deck and the front porch, feel cozy and they grow so much! I also appreciate a more minimalist interior over the summer. Is it too soon?!

Sidenote: I almost forgot how to post. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It has been well over a month since I last posted, and I just decided to commit to showing up more here moving forward. Do you think I can do it? 🤞🏻

Hello Westerville! 👋🏼

Goodwill Columbus is opening a brand new location in Westerville beginning
March 26th! I had a chance to get a sneak peek at their newest location, and it is the largest in Columbus at over 13,000 square feet. They had SO many great items, and I left some awesome things behind. Come out for the grand opening celebration and get yourself some new home decor, clothes, shoes and more!

Goodwill Columbus is the perfect place to shop for one-of-a-kind finds that are budget-friendly and sustainable. I can’t wait to show you what I got in stories. 😀

𝕊𝕥𝕪𝕝𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕍𝕚𝕟𝕥𝕒𝕘𝕖 𝕋𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕦𝕣𝕖𝕤

I’ve had a few people ask me what I’m going to do with all of the items I brought home from my parent’s house. In case you’re just catching up, my parents are moving to a retirement community and my sister and I went up there last weekend to sort through their belongings and start packing. As they downsize, hard decisions had to be made about what they can take and what they can’t.

The three girls were all allowed to take home some things that had sentimental value for us. I was a little worried about how that process would go, but we worked everything out amicably. 🤣 I, for one, feel very strongly that those 𝓈𝓅𝑒𝒸𝒾𝒶𝓁 things should not be sitting in a cupboard somewhere. 𝕌𝕤𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕤𝕡𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕒𝕝 𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕤!

So here are some ways that I am starting to style the items that I brought home with me. If you want to see more of what I scored, check the two most recent videos on my profile. (Bonus: I was able to replace TWO Target items, and the sooner all that kind of stuff is out of my home the better.) Eventually I hope my entire house will be stuffed with secondhand treasures. And the treasures with family history? Even better.

My parents are moving to a retirement community, and had to downsize their belongings. Last weekend we carefully sorted what they should pack, discard or pass on to family. Here is another round of what got passed on to me.

Little plastic candle holders that held every childhood birthday candle (my sisters and I each got five of these 🤣). My grandfather’s dog tags. A wooden chess set made by my dad. A “Real Scottish Plume” pin of my grandma’s (it’s giving Traitors). A sailboat my dad and I made together for a middle school project. Every item is a memory. I couldn’t possibly pick a favorite (but that chess set…. 😍).

My mom‘s handwriting on a Pyrex container. My grandfather‘s name engraved on a silver bowl. The 1951 Santa mug that my dad used as a child. A teapot my grandmother bought me when I was little. A tray I can’t remember not being in my parent’s kitchen.

These are a few of the things that I was able to take into my home as part of the process of packing and moving my parents to a retirement community. My sisters and I sorted through the things that they can’t take with them, and while I didn’t get all of the things that I wanted, they all found homes with one of us. These are some things that make me happy.

What a difference paint makes! Have you been afraid to tackle a furniture or cabinet paint project due to all of the daunting prep work? If so, I cannot recommend enough! No sanding, priming or sealing required which makes for an easy update. Great for any furniture or cabinet project to do a quick refresh or a total transformation.
