Hey there,
I’m Josie.
A homewares stylist and old house renovator obsessed with neutral walls, cozy corners, and big cups of coffee. Welcome to my home decor blog, Here you can find cozy cottage decor, DIY room decor on a budget, and minimalist decorating ideas.
I love to help people discover real and affordable ways to make their home (and life!) as pretty as pinterest. I firmly believe you don’t need to spend an arm and a leg to have a beautiful home or life, all it really takes is a little imagination and grit, and learning to love the space you’re in.

Our Cozy Cottage
We purchased our home in 2013 knowing full well it needed a whole lot of love. Since then we’ve done a ton of structural work to fix what years of termite damage had done, have updated the heating, plumbing, and electrical, and have slowly picked away at repairing cracked plaster and so much more.
Since then we’ve fixed up the bedrooms, doubled the size of our patio, and gutted our kitchen and sunroom addition from the bare bones. We still have more work to do, but we’ve loved the opportunity to save this house from seeing the wrecking ball!
