Happy Friday, Friends! I say that the decision to renovate our 1800s farmhouse and the land it is on has been a marathon and not a sprint. That testament has proven valid this past week when I shared some of the landscaping that we have been doing to our pool patio area. We started this redesign when we purchased and installed our pool back in the summer of 2020, and it is far from being over. It sometimes feels like there is no end in sight. Last summer, our pool area was a mud pit for the entire summer as we worked on installing the concrete pavers. It can be frustrating and I like sharing these frustrations because I know so many of you are in the same position as you renovation your own cozy spaces. I want to tell you that it does get better! I was so excited this week to share some updates on the space that we can actually enjoy this summer with family and friends. While the space is far from over…if feels good right now, in this moment. I’ll be sharing more updates as the summer progresses but for now, let’s check out some of my favorite things from this past week!

When I think of Anthropologie, I think of cozy home decor offerings that mesh with several different home styles. They offer timeless unique pieces that are of great quality. Whether you are looking for yourself or as a gift, there are great options at every price point. Recently I was perusing Anthropologie and noticed all the great new arrivals they had. I thought this would be the perfect time to round up some of my favorite Anthro fresh summer finds from both indoors and out. Check out all of my finds here [HERE].

We are going to make a lot of updates out here this season, but for now, here is a space we have been working on this week. Check out the patio here [HERE].

Summer is the season that warms my skin and nurtures my soul. I am so excited for the warm weather season to start and create memories in our pool and patio area. Recently I’ve had so many of you reach out inquiring about affordable pool and patio furniture and accessories. I thought I would round up some of my favorites and share them with you now before Summer officially starts. The accessories in this blog post here [HERE] for both pool owners and just those looking for patio furniture.

I’m back with another splurge or save blog post! This time it’s all about dining alfresco finds [HERE]. One goal of mine in 2022 is to continue offering and sharing cozy items at all price points. That is why I love writing these splurge or save posts because it gives me a chance to search around the internet for the best prices for you!

We’re spending our day today at the Springfield Antique Show in Springfield, Ohio! This is our second year attending the show and I’m so excited that we are back again this year! If you want a recap of our time last year, check out this blog post here [HERE]. Last year when we attended, it was kind of a last-minute idea to go, and we weren’t really prepared. This year, we have a game plan and are feeling good about attending. It’s so important to take into account what you will need before attending a show like Springfield, so I wanted to offer some cozy tips here [HERE].
