Image via The Evergirl  When we moved into our new house at the end of February I was most excited about the space, it’s more than double the size of our previous place and it’s really been life changing. It’s also been quite over whelming when it comes to decorating. I’ve never had such large […]

Yay! I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time. I photographed our holiday mantel as part of the Home Depot Style Challenge before we left for our honeymoon back in October! Needless to say Christmas came a little early for us. This year I was sent several mystery boxes from Home Depot full […]

It’s hard to believe that it’s September! Around this time of year I love to make a few seasonal swaps to my decor — I put away my bright blue toss pillows and gravitate to a more neutral palette. I also like to add a new piece of furniture each year to replace some of […]

Our Home Depot Style Challenge patio reveal is up on the Home Depot Apron Blog today!! Hop on over to check out the unsightly photo of our patio before and for more images! Later this week I’ll be sharing a few DIY projects I created for the space. It’s funny to look at these photos […]

Keep reading to see why & my inspiration! I’ve been watching bloggers makeover their patios with Home Depot for some time and have […]

I’ve been “working” from our apartment for over a year now, balancing a full […]

  The past few weeks I have slowly working on my “room”/”office”/”closet”.  It’s definitely still a work in progress, but it is coming together! I painted a white Trompe l’oeil molding after being inspired by Ellie’s apartment on the Lonny Blog.  I’m still trying to re-finish my auction chair, it needs a cushion & seat […]

Happy Monday! We had a productive weekend but I think I over-extended myself and am feeling burnt out this morning! Hoping to take it easy with Flora who is home sick with me today. Answering your ask me anything questions below! See previous Q&As here and here! Where do you see yourself and your business […]

I’m so excited to kick off our new IntsaMOMS We Love series today with one of my favorites — Liz Adams! Liz is one of those moms that keeps things REAL on Instagram, she’s super relatable and I’m pretty sure everyone will agree with me in saying you feel like she’s your best friend next […]

Let me preface this personal essay by saying I know screen time is a controversial topic…and I’m in no way judging any moms for how much or little screen time their kids have. It’s a personal choice that every parent needs to figure out on their own. I’ve read a lot about the screen time […]

By now we all know that self-care for moms is a necessary part of life – but what may be hard to figure out is just how exactly to sneak it in. Whether you’re a stay at home mom, work full-time out of the home mom or a combo of the two (like me) you […]

I recently polled The Mama Notes Inner Circle (read about it and join here) to share their best spring cleaning hacks. To be quite honest our house is a mess 80% of the time. We tried having a cleaning company come every 3 weeks but after Flora was born and we were cutting costs we […]
