Jewelry is a beautiful and often fun/playful expression of personality. Little works of art (or sometime chunky works of art)! So why hide it away in a box? Last week I shared five tips for styling your home for/from real life HERE. And I think the jewelry display in my bedroom is a perfect example of that in action!

Monday Musings: Motherhood, from a Non-Mom
Yesterday was Mother’s Day in the US, so this post is a celebration to all of the mothers out there. And also is a reflection on motherhood, from a non-mom.

We’ve all seen those rooms, styled to perfection, filling up our Pinterest and IG feeds. But c’mon, that’s not real life.

Today is 11 years since I signed on the dotted line. Has it been a walk in the park? Nope. Would I do it again? Definitely.

Oh boy, this makeover has been a long time coming! And truth be told, it still is to come… first, some background info, then what happened to derail my plans. And some progress photos in between.
