I’ve been so busy in the last few months, between a full time job, moving out of my home & settling somewhere new, and getting kiddos moved away all over the country, that I had to take some time off yesterday & do some treasure hunting.
My brain and to-list just needed a break. Anyone else ever feel like that?

Anyway, I almost didn’t grab this colorful little guy, but I’m glad I did 💕

I painted this little cabinet for my own house about a year ago. Today, I’m saying goodbye to it & selling it on Facebook Marketplace. Not because I don’t want it anymore, but because I’ve decided it’s not coming with me to my next chapter.

The last few years have been life changing in ways I never expected. Now, I’m in a season of selling my home, downsizing, and letting go of a lot of things that have been part of my life for a long time. I’ve realized some things are easy to let go of, and some surprise me by being a lot harder.

Over the last couple of years, well, really since I closed the store, I’ve been made (sometimes painfully) aware that starting over means deciding what I want to carry with me into whatever comes next. And maybe that’s been one of the hardest parts, the decision making. What makes the cut, and what doesn’t.

I have a feeling I’m probably not the only one in this season of life.

Maybe it’s time to share a little more of what starting over looks like. The letting go, the downsizing, figuring out what stays and what goes…and eventually, making somewhere new feel like home. 🤍

We did a Goodwill tour!

📍Cincinnati, OH

Did you know there are Goodwill boutiques? And apparently they don’t have increased prices?

Serious question for our Georgia friends: are there not fitting rooms in any of your Goodwills?

Yesterday we spent hours flipping our booth space and getting it ready for the holidays. Huge thank you to for the help getting new displays there!

We know you’ll find unique Christmas decor here, and keep an eye out for even more giftables to arrive throughout the season.

Shop our space, and many cute others 😍, Monday-Saturday from 11am-5pm (except on Thursday’s where there’s extended hours and a pizza truck!)

Merry Christmas friends!

This one actually sold before I could get it to the booth, but I wanted to share it anyway.

I’ve got a few more pretty pieces waiting in the wings, let me know if you’re looking for something specific!

I can’t believe I forgot to mention that I recently dropped this sweet, primitive kitchen hutch off at the booth at and it’s available now.

It’s actually a charming petite size, not too big not too small. And I’m almost positive it’s a handmade piece. It would look cute with those top doors off too if they’re not totally your style.

For the month of May the shop will be open limited hours due to maternity leave 💕
So stop in Thursday-Saturday 11-5 or DM me for specific details on the hutch if you’re interested!

💕 This paint by number beauty! And she’s a big one. Just dropped her off in the booth  if you’re interested
