Whimsical Decor Tells Your Story

Hobby Lobby is a fun place to find all the seasonal decor, and of course all the things for your walls and floors, but I’m learning that the best look for me is the decor that adds a little whimsy. That has driven me to scouring in thrift stores and antique booths. I want our home to reflect who WE are – not a brand.

A Front Door Wreath for the “In-between” Season

I know lots of you are already decked out for fall, but I’m still in denial! I’m hanging onto the warm days and summer-like temps as long as possible.
