Maybe you noticed I didn’t post yesterday. (Maybe you didn’t! Ha!) Some things have come up and I just need to take a deep breath and a break. So can we just make a date for Monday? Same time, same place? I hope so.
See you in a few days, friends.

Semihandmade
Our wood grain Shaker cabinet fronts were designed for busy, high-traffic homes like ours. Clad with durable textured thermofoils, this line is compatible with Sektion, Akurum, Godmorgon, and Besta cabinets from IKEA. It's the perfect, practical way to add the warmth of wood to all the rooms of your home.

Loloi
We have teamed up with Loloi to create a line of rugs that are as affordable as they are beautiful. This collection houses a great mix of traditional and modern rugs, in cottage-y colorways, as well as vintage-inspired beauties that you’ll want to roll out in every room.

STUGA
We partnered with Stuga on a line of hardwood floors — The Ingrid is really livable, and the color is very neutral. It doesn’t lean warm or cool, it’s that just right in-between. We have really loved putting it everywhere in our house. It’s the best jumping-off point for design, no matter your interior style. In addition to being beautiful, Ingrid is really durable — we have three kids, and we always have a home construction project going on. Ingrid stands up to it all.

looking for inspiration?
A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]

Breathe away! Hoping you and yours are ok.
I didn’t notice, but I did get the print we ordered in the mail from your etsy shop, and it’s awesome. Can’t have a pantry without a chalkboard butcher chart.
I noticed you were gone yesterday. In fact, the first thing I did this morning was to check to see if I had just missed your post. Hope everything is OK. Have a great weekend!! Mine is full of painting and cleaning.
I noticed your absence yesterday. Wishing you a relaxing long weekend free of stress and full of happiness.
Oh girl, I sure hope you are okay. You need a break. You work SO hard! Let me know if I can help you out with anything or if you just want to vent! :)
I hope everything is alright! you are one of my favorite new (to me) blogs and your family is precious :)
I hope all is well with your darling family.
Well, whatever is going on, at least you have a clean kitchen!
