How To Make Over Your Bathroom When You Live In A Rental
Of all the spaces in a house, the bathroom is the one that intimidates me the most.

Why Spring Is The Ultimate Time To Refresh Your Home
What I’ve learned from every biography I’ve ever read and TED Talk I’ve ever watched, is that creating new habits and meeting goals is all about the setbacks. There will always be missteps, but the key is to get back up, not be too self-critical (that one’s hard) and try again. If you’re with the […]
