I know spring cleaning is a thing but what about f

I know spring cleaning is a thing but what about fall get rid of everything? Yes or no? I’m currently leaning into simplicity. Aka: gonna fill my car with stuff to donate ASAP because tripping over toys in the hallway and never being able to find my keys is annoying. Less clutter in the house, less overcommitting for my brain. More enjoyment of the stuff I already have and the people in my life.

Taking life lessons from wedding signs. Simple + effective (and pretty).

Karlie and Travis are getting married this weekend

Karlie and Travis are getting married this weekend. It’s not their original date, but it’s going to be magical anyway. Because obviously what matters most is not the date, the venue, or the perfectly selected stamps, (though these are perfect, Karlie!) it’s that two people are saying yes to forever together + celebrating that commitment. Now I’m going to browse Etsy for some stamps like these. 😍

This is definitely the largest seating chart I have ever done. Board by @ae_creative and darling cutout by @leemodesigns
I love working with my creative friends! I’m coming up on some of my last weddings of the year and looking back at what a strange + beautiful summer it has been. Sending a lot of love to all the 2020 couples. 🧡

Finally said goodbye to my pretty summer outdoor w

Finally said goodbye to my pretty summer outdoor wine chiller. I used lavender, creeping bell flower, and sweet pea flowers that were all growing in our yard.
Wanna make your own?
1. Select flowers or leaves
2. Place in ice trays and fill with water
3. Put frozen cubes in bowl
4. Put your bottles in!
*if you want to get multiple uses, try this: when the ice has melted a bit, use empty wine bottles as molds and put in the freezer. They next time@you’re ready to use it, your bottles will slip right in. I used this exact mold all summer.
5. Wash those ice trays!

Keep looking for the magic in other people.

Also, isn’t this board so cool!? @ae_creative made the board + @leemodesigns made cutouts of my lettering!

My first harvest. My grandmother is a master gard

My first harvest.

My grandmother is a master gardener. Still into her 90s she keeps more plants than anyone I know. When we were little she would award the cousins a “green thumb” on the fridge for the one who had done the best work in the garden that week. I never won.

For years I thought I didn’t have the skills it took and that I would kill anything I tried. But something happened this year. I started paying attention. I checked the soil, I consistently watered, and I observed what was happening. I did still kill a lot of things: dill, fennel, basil, mint, and some flowers and the deer ate a few things when the gate was open, but I didn’t kill everything. 🙃 I found out that water, sunlight, and specific care for specific plants makes a big difference. So I’m starting to dream. I’ve been drawing up plans for next year’s garden beds and I can’t wait to see what sprouts to life next year.

Maybe my grandma did pass something along after all. Maybe what she passed was love and care and paying attention to those little guys. 🌱

For the last several years, my summers have been f

For the last several years, my summers have been filled with weddings. Working with amazing vendors, the excitement of the day, amazing couples, late nights working, wedding day deliveries, many trips to Home Depot for more supplies, delicious cakes 😉 ... this summer has NOT been that. The wedding side of my business has slowed to a CRAWL. While I grieved for each couple and the changes they had to unexpectedly navigate and the vendors whose livelihood depends on these events, I also found myself grateful for this unexpected gift. I would never have given myself the space to take on fewer weddings. Because of the space, I have been able to spend more time with my family and invest time in the things that really excite me. It’s given be a breath and a vision for the years to come. I’ll still do wedding invites + signage but I’m going to take on less. I’m going to work on the garden that has given me LIFE this summer. I’m going to resume thrifting + flipping, making wildflower bouquets, and enjoying all the aspects of my home and family. Maybe some other things too. 😘

Milo and I have been reading this book and I want to share it with you! I ordered 10 extra copies and would love for you and your littles to read with us. It’s a hard cover with regular paper pages inside.

Rules: like and comment! You can keep it for yourself or gift it to a friend or tag a friend who you think should have it. I’ll announce the winner Friday and send them out next week.

It’s been a minute. For all of us, I know there

It’s been a minute. For all of us, I know there is a lot of life happening outside these little squares.

I have decided that August should be GRATITUDE month. Wanna join me?! It means that once a day, sit down and write or say one thing you’re grateful for. Maybe you can come up with ten things.

I know there is a lot to mourn. I know there is a lot of work to do. But in the midst of it all, I think being grateful will help us all keep going.

On a side note, I’m so excited about these new cards. They’re letter pressed on the softest, most amazing blush paper by my new friend @cloverandlamb here in Oregon. 🌲

Start today by telling me one thing you’re grateful for! 👇🏼 I’ll start: I’m so grateful to have a backyard with shady trees so I can hang out socially distanced with friends and family.
