I love DIY. Around this time each year, you can find me crafting Christmas ornaments, festive garlands, or cute gift toppers to embellish my gift wrap. But by now I know my limits when it comes to crafting. There are some things I just don't have the skill (or patience to acquire the skill) for. And I learned long ago that working with felt was one of them, despite my love of it. So these cute handmade felt ornaments, all by different artists mostly on Etsy, are on the top of my list should I ... Read More

Eco Friendly Cabin Decor for Fall with Zuahaza
Fall is my favorite, so you can imagine my frustration when cooler temps and transitioning trees didn't come to Seattle until about mid-October this year. But it's here now and bringing me a much needed mood-booster on my neighborhood walks as the sun goes down each afternoon. In anticipation, last month Jennifer and I retreated to the mountains in Oregon for a fall shoot and some much needed time to work on our latest project. While there, we cozied up with Zuahaza's eco friendly cabin decor, ... Read More
Neutral bedroom ideas with Zuahaza
I can't believe it's been almost two years since we last collaborated with Zuahaza, makers of artisan Colombian textiles and home decor. We met them early on in both of our social media journeys and become fast Insta friends. I'd been blogging about sustainable living and ethical shopping for a few years; Tatiana and Veelie had been cooking up a brand that honored traditional Colombian craftsmanship while offering modern home goods worldwide. I loved that they always told the stories of not ... Read More
Bringing Nature Indoors: The Best Books for Plant Lovers
Anyone who tells you houseplants are easy has a natural knack for it, I swear. I do not, but after about five years of trial and error, I've managed to get a few varieties to survive (and sometimes thrive!) in my home. I love nature, so bringing greenery indoors is a big mood booster for me, though I try to be mindful about how many I buy because most houseplants you see aren't exactly sustainable. That means being more intentional about tending to my plant babies, to ensure they live long, ... Read More
