Last updated on: July 1, 2016 at 8:37 pm By Jennifer Fancher

I love milkglass. I mean, really love milkglass. I mean, really, really love milkglass. I’m like a moth to the flame when I see it. When I go junkin’, my spidey senses tingle all over when my eye catches that creamy white. I thought I had seen it all until I stumbled across these adorable, itty-bitty jars.

A DIY Farmhouse Apron

Last updated on: June 22, 2016 at 1:20 pm By Jennifer Fancher

Let’s travel back in time for a moment – back to the age of April 2016. It was the time when the Country Living Fair came to Nashville. Okay, going back a few months may not be too exciting, but it was an awesome time for me where I was gifted with a new friendship, some blogging encouragement, and a connection.

Do you all love to shop online? I spend so much time looking at cute Farmhouse wares on different sites but when it comes time to bite the bullet and hit the purchase button I squirm a little. First, because I’m cheap and I’m constantly comparing a piece of decor to a meal for my ever growing boys and their ever growing appetites! And second, I hesitate because I’m always thinking of a ways to reproduce what I see online... Read more

Written On Stone – How to Create Memory Rocks

Last updated on: May 26, 2016 at 1:47 pm By Jennifer Fancher

Do y’all collect stuff? People collect a whole lot of things from teacups to tchotchkes, seashells to spoons. I collect rocks. Is that weird? I just love nature. It grounds me. It reminds me of who I am, where I came from. Even one of my favorite songs talks about a tumbling rough rock becoming smooth through the torrents of life’s challenges. Too many times have I been that rough rock in much need of refining, just like this perfect... Read more

Now there’s brass and there’s brass. Yucky, cheap brass like the photo above and beautiful heavy swoon-worthy... Read more
