Best of Fall – Decorating Ideas and Inspiration

I know what you’re thinking. “Kelly, you need to sit back and enjoy the flip flop wearing, margarita sipping season and stop thinking about fall in August.” It’s been a sweltering 100 degrees here in NJ and I’m hot, sweaty and tired and just want to jump in a pile of crunchy leaves while sipping spiked…

An Apple a Day – Graphic (and Cheap) Art

Last year (yes, I tend to buy things and let them collect dust while I debate what I should do with them), I did some calming breathing exercises and a few downward dogs to get myself in the right mental state to enter the behemoth Ikea.

Furniture Reshuffling – Looking at Things in a New Light

I’ve had the January doldrums. Every since I removed that last speck of glitter from the overabundance of Christmas, I’ve been in a decorating rut. My house has never been more bare. It was actually refreshing to live like a minimalist for awhile. I’m rethinking how I want to live. Do I want tons of clutter weighing me down…
