I turn 40 today.

Not concerning that fact, but previously this year a friend forwarded along a video clip footage of Dolly Parton that I keep thinking about.  In the clip, she says:

“I really think if there is something that you need to do, want to do, can afford to do, and got the nerve to do, I think you should do it if it’s going to make you feel better about yourself.”

Gosh we love her.
She might have been talking about getting her nails done (or something more permanent— and we love that!) but the thing I needed to do, wanted to do, and had the nerve to do was to build something of my own, to share. Maybe you’ve heard that I’m opening a shop this year. I wanted to offer a place to give comfort to any who want to show up, and use it to help spread the word that you can create a beautiful life and home, no matter the circumstances.

If you’re around here because you’re invested in our journey please go follow our new venture . We offer consciously made comforting goods and all are welcome.

Anyway, I’m 40 today and that’s what I’ve been thinking about. Thanks for being here.  I hope that you too go forth and do whatever it is you need/want/and have the nerve to. I recommend it.

I’m going to eat some pie now… Big love to you, wherever you are, and whatever you’re doing today!

xx Mindy

Big dream come true: ANNOUNCING

Whether you know me personally or have just been around here awhile, you probably know there are a few things I love: beautiful and functional home goods, a timeless well-made sweater, comforting spaces.

With my background in retail and home styling, opening a store selling consciously made clothing and goods has been in the stars for a while. ✨

If you want to know more including why we are doing this, and to receive all the updates on how and when you can shop, follow us !

Also please visit the link in bio to join our email list and preview our blog! So much more to come…

Thank you for being along! We love you. 🤍

Last night some friends and I were talking about which errands were the *worst* to be dragged to with your mom as a kid. Which was the worst for you? My answer rhymes with shmobby lobby. Shopping for fabric with my mom sent me into a catatonic hypnosis. 😵‍💫 😵

Which is ironic because now talking fabrics is something I do daily and loving decorative pillows is a main feature of my personality. These beautiful ones were gifted to us from and they’re tops! 👏🏼 You can never have enough dec pillows and I’ve ALWAYS said that. Have a cozy Saturday!

Also a reminder that everything takes time. When I run into friends we haven’t seen in a while they will sometimes ask if our house is done now. I never know what to say. Is anyone’s house ever done?

But I can sit here on this porch, drink my iced coffee, and wave away mosquitoes. Happy Texas summer!

The cool thing about having a peloton is that you might hear the song Peaches from The Presidents of The United States of America playing loudly from beyond this doorway in the middle of your busy Friday.

Sorry if that statement sent you into hypnosis and confusion. But some of y’all know...

Christopher has a giant stack of framed photos waiting to be hung in the guest room. He is working on a pretty incredible gallery wall which, I one day hope to show you. Anyway, I went shopping from that stack and added the one you see here for a little yellow moment with these flowers and pillow. ...and was he basically fine with me taking his art?

No. He wasn’t.
See it here while you can.

My husband has a much newer iPhone than I do and I’ve been on a kick lately where I keep saying his phone camera nearly takes as good of photos as my actual camera in terms of clarity and color. It’s annoying.

And then today I was carefully reviewing images from this recent shoot to send to someone and I’m happy to report that’s probably not true. I realized I was being dramatic.
..but I might still get a new phone. The new ones take damn good photos, and I like photos. (And I HATE having an extra $1000 laying around 🤣🤣)

PS- I watched the Biggie doc on Netflix last night on the anniversary of his death. That was 24 years ago! 😔
What have you been watching? I’d love to start a really engaging series, send recommendations! 💛
