I love to dabble in photography and play around with lighting and composition. I am slowly using manual settings on my little camera and hope to become more proficient in this area!

It's been a bit since I last posted! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm still here, just taking a step back from consistently posting on social. 😊 Who else finds coming up with content really time consuming?! I'm normally on the other side of the fence, scheduling posts for clients. I have a new appreciation for all the work involved in coming up with "REAL - relevant, engaging, authentic, likable" posts! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyways, I'm always still here if you need any graphic design creations; logos, business cards, posters, brochures, social media scheduling/images, ads, and so much more! Click the link in my bio. 🥰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The first peonies are blooming! 🌼 #nofilter⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These deep fuchsia beauties don't normally start opening up until the first week of June but with the abnormal summer temps we've been having, they're making an early appearance. I don't mind at all! These and irises (which are also blooming already!) are my absolute favorite flowers and both were already planted in our back garden when we bought our house over 13 years ago.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We've put in a lot of work to make our gardens our own. Buying some things but mostly splitting plants that are getting too large in order to move them to other locations. We've also been given a lot of plants from friends or our local Buy Nothing group!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just like inside the house, the gardens are never quite finished. There's always something else that can be changed or rearranged. I've found that I actually really like being out in the garden doing this type of diy work!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What's your favorite garden plant or flower? 🌱 And do you enjoy being outside gardening??

Are you Team DIY 🔨 or Team "Throw Money at it"

Are you Team DIY 🔨 or Team "Throw Money at it" 💰 when it comes to your home?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am TOTALLY TEAM DIY... with a couple caveats! Almost every renovation we have done in our home we've done ourselves. The only real exceptions were areas where we didn't feel comfortable tackling it ourselves or it was just a really big job and it was totally worth while to "throw money at it" to have someone else do it!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Most of the time this dedication to DIY is to save money but there's also just that satisfaction when you're able to figure out an inexpensive solution to a problem and the pride that comes in completing it yourself. Anyone with me on that? 😊

It's been an absolutely gorgeous week weather wise

It's been an absolutely gorgeous week weather wise ☀️ and we've been spending so much time outside!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I caught a shot of the boys playing a friendly game of croquet earlier this week. What you don't see in this bright and sunny picture is the chaos that ensued not long after. Someone dropped a croquet ball accidentally on someone else's head 🤦 and it did not go over very well! Suffice it to say that it's not only toddlers who have meltdowns...!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyone else's kids have a love hate relationship? Some days they get along so well and on others even the slightest things set them off...

Throwback to when I did furniture painting! 🎨🖌️
.
Rewind back to three years ago and that was totally my jam. Coupled with my freelance graphic design, this was a refreshing change from being on the computer All. Of. The. Time. There is really something satisfying about taking a well-worn mid-century object and giving it a new life. 😊
.
I'm sure I would still be doing this today if I wasn't relegated to the garage in warm months and to my husband's office/son's now remote learning room in the winter. Maybe I should re-evaluate our living spaces to accommodate these big beauties again?? 🤷‍♀️
