Three ways I style this corset 🥀

Paired with darker fabrics, it always makes me feel like I stepped out of an old castle somewhere 🏰 Which one is your favorite?✨

Desk nook 🌿

A little peek at where I spend most of my days drawing and working. By candlelight, everything feels a bit more magical, like I’m in another world while I create 🤍

Oh, and I love a good mix of function & whimsy ✨

A few corners 🤍

Here are some glimpses of my 100-year-old home, especially the dining room, which feels the most “finished” for now. Though truly, no room ever is. These spaces are always evolving and growing with me. Alongside drawing, styling my home brings me a lot of joy. I feel at peace here in my little storybook cottage ☕️

I take inspiration from many different styles and time periods, but I follow what speaks to my heart and somehow it always comes together 🫶🏻

Most of what’s here was found secondhand, and much of it is sentimental. To me, it’s proof that a home can be beautiful on any budget. It just takes time, patience and a little whimsy. ✨

Let me know if you’d like to see more of my spaces 🦢

Awakened from the shadows 🦇

It’s been a while but I couldn’t resist coming back under candlelight…Mildly undead, entirely inspired and just in time for spooky season 🕯️

Ukulele afternoons 🌷🎼

Grateful for this little gift. I don’t play as often as I’d like (carpal tunnel life), but whenever I do, everything slows down for a moment. It feels like a tiny escape. 🐚
