  • What is it about a new year that seems to bring with it that urge to organize all the things? Sure, there’s definitely something motivating about the idea of a fresh new start, but I think for us, it’s more a craving for a little less clutter after a very full holiday season. The holidays bring with them so many wonderful things, people and adventures and, though I absolutely love every minute of it all and wouldn’t change a thing, there’s also something really refreshing about the calm and quiet that comes after it. As Christmas (and all the stuff that comes with it) gets packed up for another year, the need to declutter and organize every single thing swoops right in to take its place. This year I kicked things off in the kitchen, clearing our counters of any extra clutter and then cleaning out + reorganizing every single cupboard and drawer (where do all those crumbs inside them ALL even come from?!). Are you spending your January cleaning and organizing all the things? What are you tacking first? #organization #organized #organizedhome #organizedkitchen #kitchenorganization #organize #konmari #konmarimethod #konmarikitchen #organizedkitchen #farmhousekitchen #gettingorganized #organizedhome #declutter #declutteryourhome #declutteryourkitchen #declutteryourlife #mypotterybarn

  • What’s the first space in your home that you decorate with each change in season? I always, always start with our bedrooms - I just can’t resist making things extra cozy with some soft flannel sheets and a few extra layers of blankets to get us through these cold + snowy winter nights. #winterbedroom #cozybedroom #farmhousebedroom #stencilwall #grateful #woodsign #farmhousechristmas #farmhousechristmasdecor #ironbed #whitebedroom #neutralbedroom #tdmloves #bhghome #houseandhome #houseandhomemag #winterwhites
  • Happy Friday friends! Looking for some GORGEOUS CHRISTMAS TREE INSPIRATION?🌲 I am thrilled to be teaming up with a group of incredibly talented ladies to bring you a CHRISTMAS TREE HOP you won’t want to miss! Follow along the hop to get a fun Christmas tree decorating tip from each of us! But first, here’s MY TIP: I used to always add my garland to our tree before hanging our ornaments to fill any gaps, but the last few years I’ve done things the other way around, hanging out ornaments first and then adding the garland and I’m absolutely loving the look! Not only does it help our garland(s) to stand out a bit more, but I love that I can use my garland to fill in any gaps in the branches or decor to help our tree look really lush and full! Next up on the hop is ➡️ [ @the_cityfarmhouse ] You can also follow the entire loop below: @abrickhome @homewithkelly @mylittlekatecod @makingitinthemountains @the_cityfarmhouse @monicabenavidez @thisisourbliss @goldenboysandme @willowbloomhome @ciaofabiana @thefrontporchfarmhouse @blessedmilhouse @sanctuaryhomedecor Happy hopping, and enjoy all the beautiful Christmas tree inspiration from my talented friends! #christmasdecor#bhghome#christmastree#holidaydecor#simplystyleyourspace#christmas#christmastreedecor#countrylivingmag#christmastreedecorating#christmasdecoration#bhgholiday#holidaydecorating#farmhousechristmas #farmhousechristmastree
  • Do you ever feel like the holidays tend to take on a life of their own these days - with countless commitments, endless to-do lists, and more gifts under the tree than ever before? Sometimes it seems like I’ve got more ideas about things I should be doing than time and the holiday season seems to pass before we’ve even gotten a chance to really soak it in and enjoy it. So this year, we’re running with the idea that less is more. Less gifts under the tree leaves us with more to give to others that are in need. Less on the to-do list, leaves us with more time to enjoy the season with our family and friends. Less decor around the house leaves us space to truly enjoy the pieces we love most. Less extravagant expectations leaves us with more room to take pleasure in the simple things. I’ve heard this sentiment echoed again and again this year by so many - are you craving a little more simplicity this time of year? #farmhousechristmas #farmhousechristmasdecor #farmhousechristmaskitchen #simplechristmas #simplechristmasdecor #christmaskitchen #whitechristmaskitchen #christmaskitchendecor #farmhousechristmashome #farmhousechristmashometour #tdmloves #yeg #edmontonchristmas #canadianchristmas #cdnblogsquad #canadianbloggerhometour #cbhometour
  • Happy December friends! Is your home already filled with all things Christmas, or do you wait until December to pull it all out? We dug out our decor weeks ago, and I’ve been rearranging it all ever since. Thanks to all of your great advice on my last post, I think I’ve finally settled on my holiday colours this year and I cannot wait to photograph it all this weekend so I can share all the holiday coziness with y’all next week! A little hint though: it’s all been inspired by the rich green on this lovely #woodsign from the crazy talented @oakandpine_woodsigns! 😍 Scroll through her beautiful feed to see all of her rustic holiday signs and my local friends can pop by the Christmas Market at St. Joseph Parish Hall tomorrow (Sunday) from 10-4 to snag one of your own! See you there! . . . #shoplocal #farmhousechristmas #farmhousechristmasdecor #christmascolours #rusticsign #rusticchristmas #christmasmantel
