7 Simple Ways to Bring More Hygge Into Your Home

Have you heard about the concept of hygge yet? When I first learned of it, I remember turning to my husband and saying, That's it! THAT'S the word for what I love so much! I felt like I finally had come across the exact way to describe what I strive for in my mentality and my home. It was refreshing and comforting to finally have a term for it!

Shall I start with a disclaimer? (I feel like moms shouldn't need one, since life with littles can have its share of curveballs, haha...but here goes.) This routine I'm sharing today is an ideal, quiet, predictable nightly routine. Some nights do not look like this. Some nights differ only … [Read more...]

12 Things That Make Our House a Cozy Home

I'm excited about today's post, because I'm passionate about turning a house into a cozy, welcoming home! A home isn't just a building where you eat and sleep - it's where family and friends gather, where memories are made, and it's where we should be able to let out a deep breath and relax. Bjorn and I are currently renting a house and I have slowly, steadily (and with help) been able to turn this place into OUR cozy, happy place!

17 Autumn Projects To Do Before The Seasons Change

I know, I know -- maybe it seems early to think about winter! Here in Minnesota, it feels like September has barely arrived and people are already going all out with fall decor while keeping one eye on the impending cold. But that's how we plan ahead in this state! ;) Personally, I've been thinking about winter a lot already this year because I've been trying to plan ahead for our little one! Our daughter is due mid-October and while I'm so excited, I'm also a bit overwhelmed at the idea of … [Read more...]

Kitchen Tidying Checklist (Free Printable!)

Which housekeeping tasks fill you with a sense of satisfaction? I feel the most settled on evenings when I leave a clean, tidy kitchen downstairs. I just love glancing back at the freshly wiped countertops, the dish-less white farmhouse sink, and flipping the little yellowy sink light off before heading upstairs for the night, knowing all is well and all is set for the next day. But – I don’t want to spend all evening after work standing in the kitchen! So it's important to … [Read more...]
