If you’ve been around here a while, you already know what I mean when I say something is “giving me life.” It’s not just a casual like, or a passing interest. No, when something gives me life, it’s that deep, soul-stirring spark of joy that makes me feel like I could write poetry about grout lines or get misty-eyed over a perfectly styled bookshelf. I’ve written about planters, frames, books, even the color yellow—but now that the temperatures are finally dipping, my heart (and my Pinterest boards) are fully consumed by fireplaces.
