Hi! Welcome to the Happy List. How’s everyone managing these days? If you need a listening ear, you can always message me here. I probably won’t have any answers, but I can send you a virtual hug. This week on the blog I shared a staircase makeover and some random things I’m enjoying now. When I’m not hanging out on the blog I usually find time to share a project or idea on Instagram and Facebook stories. I’d love it if you joined me there and please tell your friends too! That really helps this blog keep going! Here’s the Happy List! PEP TALK If you could use a pep talk from a kindergartener,…

Hello, hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List! The world feels HEAVY right now, so I’m going to keep things light. This week on the blog I shared our 2022 House Project Goals. Nothing like a little goal-setting to keep things light on the blog. Ha! I also shared how I’ve been utterly charmed by a woven basket plant stand. I don’t try to explain these things…I just go with the flow at this point in my life. When I’m not hanging out on the blog I usually find time to share a project or idea on Instagram and Facebook stories. I’d love it if you joined me there and please tell your friends…

Hello and welcome to the Happy List, a collection of random things that inspired me this week! Earlier this week on the blog I wrote about the silly couples thing Handy Husband and I do and about the wood trinket box that I’ve been carting around my whole life!

Hello! Welcome to the Happy List! Do you have Valentine’s Day plans for this weekend? If you do, I hope you have the best time. I don’t know how to elegantly transition out of that to tell you I wrote about pests and pest control on the blog this week. I will definitely buzz with excitement if you read all about it. How else did I illuminate your life this week? Well, on Wednesday I wrote about the new light in our son’s room. If you like the farmhouse style, that post will surely shine bright as one of the best things you’ve read this week. When I’m not here…

Welcome to the Happy List and the first Friday of February! Is anyone else glad the slog through the seemingly longest month of the year, January, is over? PHEW! I am. It was a love-themed week on the blog. Aww! I shared a tutorial for the wood and brass hearts that I had fun making. I also shared my reflections on a 23rd wedding anniversary.

You made it through another week! Congrats and welcome to the Happy List! This week on the blog I shared how we are feeling after we removed the woodstove from our kitchen.

Why, hello again! Welcome to the Happy List! This week on the blog I shared pictures of our new living room rug. I’m quite smitten with it at the moment. I also shared the tale of our closet door refinishing process. The good news on that project is that I learn something new and better my skills with every project I attempt.

Hello! Welcome to the Happy List. This week on the blog I shared a bunch of shelf ideas. Getting organized helps me feel like I have a little more control over my world. Notice I said MY world, not THE world. I have no control over that. Ha! I also shared the joy that is miniature table clocks. Have you ever had or do you currently have a miniature table clock?

Hello! Welcome to the first Happy List of 2022! How is the new year treating you so far? For me, it hasn’t been bad. It has been filled with a whole mixed bag of feelings though! This week I shared two things on the blog that gave me all sorts of warm fuzzy feelings. The first is the pool ball rack art I made for my son’s room. I love creating something with my own two hands and repurposing items into home decor, so this project was a win for me. I also shared all the podcasts that keep me company while I go about my daily business. I hope…

Welcome to an early edition of the Happy List! I thought before I signed off for the rest of the year that I’d squeeze in one more Happy List. Why not, right? This week on the blog I also wrote a Merry Christmas post on how I’m feeling this year. If you haven’t read it yet it has to do with hugs and nuts. Makes total sense. While I will be off the blog until after the first of the year or thereabouts, you can always see what we are up to on Instagram or Facebook. I don’t actually know what we will be up to, but there’s usually a project happening…
