Personalized Reclaimed Wood Clocks {new!}
Many of my signs and products are a result of wanting to create something specific for my home. And my new reclaimed wood clocks are no exception! I wanted a large, round sign for my entryway, and my talented husband created one for me. I just love these clocks and am so excited to add […]
Words Matter
Our homes tell the story of who we are and what matters to us. One of the reasons I love to see inside people’s homes is because it gives me a glimpse into who they really are, in their most sacred and safe place. Here are some photos of my signs taken in my customers’ […]
Wrapping up the week
We’ve spent as much time as possible outside working on our property this week, although it’s has been COLD. But there have been some pretty, sunny days that almost make up for it. We are busy cutting down overgrown shrubs, dead trees, and getting things cleaned up. I’m creating flower beds around the house and […]
How to create a hanging shelf
Last Saturday morning I was in the mood for a really quick project, so I decided to create a hanging shelf in front of the large window in the studio for some of my plants. The window doesn’t have any curtains right now, and it looked kinda lonely. It needed some life, and plants were […]

Happy Monday friends! I have a few new signs in the shop this week! An awesome reminder of God’s amazing love for us! You can find the “How deep the Father’s love for us” sign here. I happen to love the new metallic gold lettering color that I’ve been incorporating into a few signs lately! […]
How to paint stained trim without sanding
I’ve gotten a lot of questions recently about how I painted the stained trim in our new house, so I thought I’d share exactly how I did it here. The trim in almost the entire house was a very glossy dark stained wood. Here is a before/after of the family room. It is purely a […]
A peek in the studio
There is always so much goodness going on in the studio each week! It is truly my happy place. Lately, there have been lots of these beautiful ocean scenes that we create using reclaimed wood. Each one is so unique. I absolutely love how each week is different, and I’m constantly working on something new […]

One year ago we met our precious little boy all the way across the world in China! This year has been full of so many changes for all of us. We’ve gone through difficult seasons and times of unbelievable joy. Here are two photos from the first few minutes that we met him one year ago. […]
Together is my favorite place to be
This is the newest sign in the shop! It is shown in dark gray wood with our new metallic gold lettering, but it can be done in any color! You can find it here.

For when it’s all just too much
I had a rough couple of days last week. Being a business owner is hard. Don’t get me wrong, I love that I get to create pretty things in my studio, and I still pinch myself that this is my JOB. It’s what I’ve dreamed of doing since I was a little girl drawing pictures […]
Feather painting on reclaimed wood
I have some new paintings available for order in the shop! I’ve been working on creating these feather paintings for several weeks and am really pleased with how they turned out. They are made using our gorgeous reclaimed wood, and each one is painted-to-order. So colors can be changed, as well as the word on […]
