My Kitchen Makeover Featuring Live-Edge Floating Shelves
Update! If you’re looking for a tutorial on how to install live-edge floating shelves, I put together a detailed one using the wood left over from these shelves: How to Hang Floating Solid Wood Shelves. I also made a live-edge bench with another piece of the same wood! A few days ago we finished a major […]
Outfits and Interiors: Plaid
As the season has changed from summer to fall, I’ve been adjusting my clothing with the temperatures, pulling out my jackets, scarves, and jeans.

Free Printable Vintage Botanical Art
A couple of weeks ago I posted about resources for free printable botanical/nature art. But not being content to use what was already available, I made up my own batch.
