The Best 2025 Fall Festivals in Georgia
Anyone who knows me knows that Fall is my absolute favorite season and one of my favorite things to do in the Fall is go to Arts & Crafts Festivals.

The Best Fall 2025 Interior Design & Fashion Trends – According to Me
You know that feeling when summer is winding down and you realize you’re this close to trading rosé for red wine, linen for leather, and poolside lounging for pumpkin-spice everything?

The Book is the Look – Decorating with Books in Staging, Styling & Design
Let’s be honest: books aren’t just for reading anymore. In today’s design world, books are pulling double duty—stacked, turned, color-coded, or even hidden in plain sight—and they’re doing it fabulously. Whether you’re staging a home for sale, styling a room for everyday living, or just looking for ways to show off your extensive collection of half-read novels (no judgment), books are one of the easiest, most accessible tools in your decorating arsenal.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
