Hi Friends!

How are you? I hope you all enjoyed Thanksgiving with family or friends! We debated on whether we should decorate for Christmas this year since we close on the new house next week. A good friend spoke truth into my life. Encouraging me to give up some plans and to simplify life so we would still have time to enjoy Christmas as a family. There will always be something to renovate, work to be done, more people wanting help, but one thing that won’t come back is a Christmas with my kids still enjoying the wonder of it all. I’m so thankful for her wisdom and her challenging me to have enough courage to say no to some things that I love so I could say yes to those I love most.

This week, I wanted to share some after pictures of an interior design job that has been slowly happening since the spring. This house had so much character and just needed a little sprucing up with paint colors, rugs, couch covers, furniture placement and decor items. We had a wonderful time working together and I absolutely love how everything came out. Sorry I don’t have any after pictures for you! 1795 home living room before the design
