It can be a challenge to love your home 24/7. We all have projects we want to do, rooms that need organizing and furniture we’d love to buy. But reality is that most of us can’t do those things right away! At this time in our lives when most of us are spending time at home more than ever and aren’t shopping for non-essential items, this post may really resonate with you and hopefully be helpful! I have been getting a lot better about loving my home in every state it’s in and enjoying the process. So, today I’m going to share some of my tips that help me love my home and may help you!

We gave Anchor’s bed a little refresh! It’s no secret that I love linen bedding. It’s natural, breathable, soft, works year-round. Most of all, I love the lived-in, organic look of linen— it always makes me just want to jump right in! So naturally I had to choose this wonderful fabric for his updated bedding! Garnet Hill is definitely my go-to for linen bedding— I can trust that they’re free of harmful substances and I love that they’re garment-washed for extra softness! They also have beautiful color choices.

You can take a look at our library design plans here and I’ll put together a progress blog post soon! In today’s post we’re sharing our playroom plans :)
Read MoreWe made some updates to our master bedroom recently, the biggest being upgrading to a king bed! It was a long time coming as Anchor sleeps between us every night and it was getting way too crowded in a queen size bed haha We also got some new bedding and did a couple fun DIYs!
Read MoreAs many of you may know, we are currently working on our next room renovation which we are calling the library! Some of you may know I’m obsessed with books and reading so this is a dream come true. It will be a place to relax, read, play games and chat with friends. It will be attached to the playroom which will be nice since Anchor and friends can play while adults are in the adjoining room.
