Vintage-Inspired Swan Decor

ByKim Pepper August 23, 2023September 19, 2023

Something about vintage-inspired swan decor makes my heart SO happy. Maybe because it feels whimsical, or because it really is just simply beautiful, but I can’t get enough of it– wallpapers, planters, figurines, wall art, all of it! Of course there is likely a point where you can have too much swan decor, but I…

Creating a Vintage Mood Board

ByKim Pepper August 21, 2023August 17, 2023

Marble Top Entryway Tables for a Vintage Vibe

ByKim Pepper August 17, 2023September 19, 2023

I have a marble top entryway table passed down from my Grandmother and it’s one of my most treasured pieces. Obviously, I love it simply because it came from her… but truly it’s just a stunning piece! I love that it’s unique and it fits right in with my love for all things vintage. Of…

Best Moving Tips: From a Moving Company

ByKim Pepper August 8, 2023August 7, 2023

Moving is hard work! Having recently moved, it’s fresh on the brain just HOW hard it really is. I have since shared my own personal moving tips and tricks with you (which you can find HERE) and while I think I’ve got some good insight in there, it got me thinking… what do MOVERS think…

All About Summer Inspiration

ByKim Pepper August 1, 2023September 13, 2023

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again– decorating is easy once you get started. It’s the getting started that can be hard. Of course, for holidays like July 4th and Memorial Day, it’s easy to know just what decor to pull out of the closet. But, and I’ve heard this from SO many…

DIY Interior Cat Door

ByKim Pepper July 30, 2023July 28, 2023

If you have cats, and especially if you have cats AND dogs, you probably relate to the need of an interior cat door. Personally, I have 3 cats and 3 dogs, so it’s basically a zoo around here… dogs chasing cats 24/7. Spoiler alert, the old stereotype is true. And because I do love my…

DIY Cardboard Life Preserver

ByKim Pepper July 20, 2023July 24, 2023

Nothing screams summer like a good old life preserver. It makes me think of hot summer days, water, and fun in the sun. Quite ironic considering the actual life preserver itself would generally represent something a bit darker, as you wouldn’t use or see one unless you’re possibly in some trouble. But nonetheless, today, it…
