Inspired By | Baskets as Wall Art
One of the design trends I’ve really liked lately are baskets as wall art. I’ve lucked out – they are abundant at my local thrift store (so much so I’ve been buying extra in hopes I can list some for sale in the near future!) I’m using them in my new laundry room and these…

My New Favorite Breakfast
In the past month or so I’ve been adding more vegan meals to my daily eating habits. I’m not 100% there and I don’t plan on going all the way but it feels good to get so many plants into my kitchen! My favorite thing to eat these days is a banana and chia seed…

Notes from the Field | 003
Here I am, sitting in the corner of my bedroom, wine on the night stand, finally getting 30 minutes to myself. I haven’t been able to nurture my little blog like I would want to lately, but since I have the time – here I am. Today was really hard. The kind of day when you…

Jessica Makes | Butterfly Embroidery
Ta da! I finished up a quick embroidery project yesterday and I’m so happy with this little blue butterfly! I’ve always liked the look of butterflies for home decor, but never loved the idea of catching and killing one for the sake of decoration. This lil gal is the perfect compromise – a relaxing lap project…
