Have we moved? Why, yes, we have! Many of you have been asking this question, and yes, we moved back to our home town this summer (Vestavia, AL). We made lifelong friends in Atlanta, but for our family this was absolutely the right choice. As one of my best friends told me, “It was brave to move there, and it’s brave to move back.” Her saying this helped more than she will ever know. Our perspective on the world has widened, and our move there and back has enriched our lives for the better. We are grateful for the experience and lessons it has taught us. The great news though? We have another house to fix up, so keep following along! ☺️ I hope you guys have a great one, and thanks for following me on this wild journey of mine.

One of my favorite things to do when decorating is creating a vignette in unexpected places throughout a home. It’s these surprises and small details that take a home to the next level. This is one I worked on today in our new home (more on that, later!). 🥰
