January Around The Web
Hello, friends! Normally I can’t believe a month has already gone by when I write these posts but this January felt like two months in one. This month we finished up our mini kitchen renovation, rang in the new year with new KC friends, survived a blizzard and freezing temps, celebrated my friend Alyissa’s birthday and hosted a family birthday part for my grandpa. Work wise was where most of the craziness came in, I started lots of exciting new projects and my friend Meredith and I saw our mural at Ability KC come to life (thanks to lots of Hallmark volunteers)! This month wasn’t a big shopping month as we finished the kitchen, but there was definitely lots of kitchen inspiration on the brain and we made some new recipes, too. Enjoy!
I absolutely love this Parisian kitchen! We have lots of hits of blue in our house, but this has me inspired to add in more lighter shades with the navy.
My friend Alyissa created Think.Make.Share.’s downloadable wallpapers, perfect for February!
Very tempted to also get an acrylic box to display my wedding shoes.
I finally found house numbers I’m obsessed with! Hoping to get these ordered and hung up soon.
A new twist on avocado toast (for me) that I loved this month.
I’m really hoping to take a stained glass workshop sometime this year and I’m saving this for inspiration.
A cute Valentine’s Day gift roundup!
Have you been entering to win the HGTV dream home?
I’ve been thinking about ways to reduce my plastic usage, and it’s exciting to see the end of single-use plastics in the EU!
Welcome, 2019!

November Around The Web
Hi, friends! I took last week off from the blog to enjoy Thanksgiving with my family. I love all the traditions during this season, and we were lucky that Dale had the day off on Thursday so he could join in all our festivities too! This month I hosted a baby shower for one of my best friends from college, celebrated Friendsgiving twice, and started decorating out house for Christmas for the first time. At work I’ve been busy working on Christmas product for next year, so my holiday spirit is in full swing! This was a also a big shopping month for me as I started buying presents, and a few things for myself as well. This Blue Clay face mask from Herbivore has by far been my favorite beauty find the month:
Next year I would love to make a wreath or swag for my door during November. I love this swag for inspiration!
Grace’s Cat Lady Gift Guide has been one of my favorites so far

I never would have paired disco balls and died palm leaves, but it’s a new favorite
Cocktail tray inspiration perfect for December parties
Last, but definitely not least, we have started a few updates on our kitchen! I just ordered this sink and faucet, so a full recap after we finish is coming (hopefully) soon!
