❤️ I Can't Believe This Either


2 minute read

Hi Reader!

Last June, our family moved into our 11th home on Camp Pendleton, California.

And then just a few months ago, we moved again.

I know. I kinda can’t believe it either.

This move, however, was unlike any other we’ve tackled in the 20+ years of my husband’s military service.

In this month’s Coffee Break, I’m breaking down where we moved to this time, why it was so sudden, and why it means even more good news for you and the blog!

My monthly Coffee Breaks are always over on the blog instead of here in your email, since these posts tend to be longer and generate good discussion! Grab a cup of coffee and catch up with me here…

Month In Review: May

This month, I shared the last few projects from our previous home, right before we started taking everything apart to move again. Check out any you missed by clicking below!

One of the questions I get the MOST about moving is how I (quickly) figure out where everthing goes in the new house. Next week, I'm sharing some tried-and-true tools I rely on, as well as the embarrassing story of how I got one area VERY wrong!

Monthly Ask!

See you next week!

5 minute read Hi Reader! Over on the blog, I'm diving deep into HDX boxes. You know…those black and yellow bins (well, now in other colors too!) that have seemingly taken over every home improvement store, garage, and campsite. We went ALL IN on these bins for our garage storage and learned a ton in the process. If you’ve been wondering if these bins are worth the hype, here’s everything you’ll want (and need!) to know before you make the switch! See It: Everything You Want (& Need!) to Know...

5 minute read Hi Reader! I am so excited to share today’s project with you. Because while it may seem like I crank out project after project with ease, very few come together flawlessly and exactly as I imagined. In our new home, I had a huge wall and only one frame to put on it. So it was time to get creative. This wall project was quick. It was easy. It was affordable. And it was wholly transformative in all the best ways! Read It: Filling a Big Wall with a Single Frame More Like This...

2 minute read Hi Reader! As I’ve been recounting the details of all our recent moves (4 in the last 5 years), there is one question I’ve been getting a lot lately: “Surely, the landlord (or next tenants!) must appreciate your changes! Why do you always take everything apart?” Unfortunately, over our 20+ years of being renters, we’ve been able to leave behind only a very few of our projects.
