Are You Ready For The Season?
I was thinking a lot about change recently. Things are changing all of the time. As I was thinking and reflecting on change, I noticed how sensitive I’ve been in the past to change and how I really don’t like it. Do you? Change and transition can be difficult for me because I’ve always been someone who likes to feel at home. I like the feelings of security, comfort, and knowing what to expect. But who am I kidding right because usually life is not at all like this and somethings I can expect, but no matter how much I can expect it, it still brings some discomfort.

Tucked In, Cozy and Inspired
Just because it’s technically winter outside, doesn’t mean that you can’t feel inspired. Here in Massachusetts, it’s cold and we have snow piling up. Yesterday, we got our first snowfall of 5″. It was beautiful to watch falling, but not so beautiful cleaning it all up. I felt inspired yesterday to begin creating a new refresh for one of my rooms. I love going on to Pinterest and looking for new inspiration. I am a hands-on creator. I like to cut, glue, and tape (with pretty tape of course,) my ideas into a notebook, or onto a piece of paper. Who am I inspired by? A lot of people, shops,…

How to Make Your Homestead Winter Warm
It’s cold. Well, where I am in Massachusetts it is. I love to decorate with the seasons. As I awaken into the world, you can usually find me walking around my home in bare feet and flannels on a cold, winter morning. I fill up my mug and begin my day.

The Moon- It’s Not Just A Phase
Full moons are not just a phase. The energy and power of the moon draws my curiosity. What is it about about full moons? Are there certain things in nature that you’re just drawn too? It might be the ocean. The heat of the sun and soft sand, the misty woods or the smell of fresh pines. But, there is a reason why I’m on a moon kick lately. Why? Well, I’ve started to pay attention to the moon a bit more because for awhile, I just ignored it.
