October 1. A new day. A new month and the start of a little something different.  I’m going to write everyday for the entire month. 31 days. That is a really long time. Do you know how many times I’ve started this journey? I don’t either. I’ve dreamed of completing this goal but never actually hit publish.

Our homes are typically our biggest purchase (and/or debt and/or rent payment each month) and one of our biggest blessings- its more than just walls and a roof to keep the cold out, it’s where we do life.  So this month, let’s spend some time loving our homes. To help you start thinking, we’ve put together a list of 10 ways to show your home some love.   Display those pictures: Surround yourself with images...

We've been so busy bringing you the best in home decor and making our online store and our spot in Woodbury look just right, that we've failed to bring you inspiration here.  Well the all changes now!
