Morning, lovelies! I’m in Dallas at a conference and doing work meetings this weekend, and while it’s been so good catching up with some of my best blogger friends from around the country, I’ve really missed my usual weekend cuddle time with Phoebe today!

Happy Thursday! Claire here with the perfect summer kick-off DIY. I don’t know about you all, but I am a plant lover.
