Haven Conference A few years ago, Corey and I attended our first-ever Haven Conference. Read about our second date with Haven a few years ago. And we keep coming back. Here's why: Swag bag full of DIY goodies. Spending time with other like-minded DIYers, makers and bloggers (especially my friends from The Striped House, Domestic Charm, Design Asylum Blog and Red Door Furniture Co.).

Vintage America Party Decor
The mister and I have been hunting vintage finds since before we met. Our hearts are naturally nostalgic for old things - especially things that characterize what American life was like several decades ago. Is there anything more nostalgic than American vintage finds? I love how that phrase rolls off the tongue. American... Vintage... Finds. I think that should be the next HGTV show, don't you? It probably would be the name of this blog if I could start all over again. Ha! We are … [Read more...] about Vintage America Party Decor
What’s on Tap No.4
Summer has always been my favorite season, probably due in part to having a June birthday. In fact, I'm celebrating kind of a big number next week.

What’s on Tap No.2
Hey there. It's not only Friday around here, but also the LAST DAY OF SCHOOL. And no one is more excited for summer than this mama. Something I haven't done before. I can no longer be proud of my perfect record as a carpool mom. On Monday, I picked up my oldest from school and headed out to his doctor appointment. My youngest had swim practice, so it was just the two of us. After his appointment, we had time to spare so we stopped at a drive-in for a snack. I felt relaxed because the … [Read more...] about What’s on Tap No.2
