storage solution with a twist

got a few wobbly, oddball chairs and an empty wall? i wish i did. this one proves that storage & space solutions don't always require a trip to target.

everyday objects

objects. ornaments. accessories. the little things that make it yours. everyone has a sofa and a kitchen table. a few hundred, or a few thousand people might even have the exact same sofa or kitchen table, but something makes it all yours.

in some ways the bits and pieces one collects along the way are just as important as basic furnishings. what little pieces make your home feel like home to you? which trinkets and tid bits remind you of who you are, where you have been, & who you love?

i have a few that have been with me for some time. ones that somehow survive each and every move. here's a peek at a few of my old friends...

evolution

in order to evolve, you must stand still long enough for your heart to have a conversation with your brain.

true homes evolve, they don't just happen. this is something i have to constantly remind myself of in regards to my own home. every time i move i somehow think it is just a matter of unpacking boxes. i think i am catching on though. 

my little porch project is coming along. slow but sure. instead of rushing the process, anxiously awaiting the end result i see in my mind, i am doing my best to accept that it just takes time. today anyways.
