MARCH (p)INSPIRATION
I can’t believe we’re already into March; it seems like just last week we were getting ready for Santa and yet, here we are, covered in pollen and temps hitting the 80’s already! Right about this time of year, I get antsy for everything to green up; it just doesn’t feel right when it’s so…

JANUARY (p)INSPIRATION
Ah, Pinterest……what would I ever do without you for inspiration? Ever since Insta turned into a never-ending feed of advertisements and reels, Pinterest has retained its title as my favorite source for inspiration, not to mention my preferred social media outlet to fall down a rabbit hole on when I have a few minutes.
