Oh Hey! I’m Jill!

I’m so happy you’re here!

Creating a home is a process and it’s something best done over time. Home should be a haven where we can craft the life we want. I love homes with lots of books, comfy spots to snuggle, organized spaces to work and entertain, beautiful treasures picked up along the way, and mementos from a life well lived. But the thing I love most? Home is where your life happens. Let’s make it fabulous, shall we?

Major booth re-do today!The antique mall where I Major booth re-do today!The antique mall where I sell vintage had their yearly sale last weekend, and my booth looked like a bomb went off in it after the 3-day sale.So I headed there today to add more goodies and make everything pretty again.Who loves shopping for vintage?🙋‍♀️We are getting close to flea market season (YAY!) so I thought I would share my #1 tip for shopping vintage. Here it is:I know many of you hesitate when you see something fabulous while shopping. You hmmmmm and ummmmm and wonder where you would put it, even though you love it. My advice, PUT IT IN THE CAR! Meaning, buy it!If you only shop for that thing that you truly love, you WILL find a place for it. Even if you need to get rid of something else, and isn't that what Facebook Marketplace is for?Live with what you love. Buy what you love. And your home will always be authentically YOU!Now here's the hard part for some....DO NOT LOOK AT WHAT ANYONE ELSE IS BUYING. Don't let a hater talk you out of something you truly adore, and don't just copy someone else because that's what you think you should have.I'm going to say it louder for those in the back...BUY WHAT YOU LOVE! Even if it's weird. Especially if it's weird! No one else is you, so go ahead and create a space that is truly unique.💙💙💙p.s.  If you see someone buying or sharing something that is not your taste, no need to hate on it. That is the other person's taste, and they probably love it. Let's share more love and kindness, and enjoy the fact that we are all different! (That's my fave part!)#myvintagestyle #buyvintageyoulove #buywhatspeakstoyou
Look up! Don’t forget about that ceiling! I’m Look up! Don’t forget about that ceiling! I’m talking about beadboard on the blog today. There are so many great types of paneling and I love to mix and match. What is your favorite?

Home can be a magical place. Doesn't it feel good Home can be a magical place. Doesn't it feel good to get out and go somewhere fun? But I am always so grateful to come back and let the familiarity of home embrace me. Coming in with fresh eyes can give you a new perspective to see something you may not have realized before.When we live with items everyday, we may not really SEE what can be improved. Do you ever get inspired when you are out in the world, and it sparks something in you that you want to make your own? Coming home with fresh eyes can help you create that meaningful space that is full of YOUR personal style.Happy Sunday, friends! Live well. 😘

So, do you think it's okay to lick the insides of So, do you think it's okay to lick the insides of the yogurt container? Um, asking for a friend.It seems like the only proper thing to do, especially if you are recycling the container in question. I mean, you're not supposed to put it in the recycling bin with stuff still on it, right? It's sounding like a public service, really.And it's yogurt, hopefully in a yummy flavor. It's not like it's sour cream. You shouldn't lick that one, right? That just seems weird.Kitchen etiquette is important, I think. So I'm just trying to get up to date on what the cool kids are doing. So if you can help me out, let me know in the comments. Otherwise, Happy Wednesday! 😜#vintagekitchendecor #crocksandrollingpins #myvintagelife
Winter is still raging but the faux flowers inside Winter is still raging but the faux flowers inside make it feel like spring. #fauxhydrangeas #vintageflowerart #myhomestyle
⚠️Pillow chopping controversy ahead⚠️do yo ⚠️Pillow chopping controversy ahead⚠️do you do the karate chop, a soft chop, or just a plump? I wonder how that whole pillow chop even started 🤔I do love a soft chop because I love down pillows and how soft they will conform to a good smush. Cause you need a good down pillow smush if you’re ever going to nap 😴 on the couch!What say you? Chop or no? Vote in the comments 😂#pillowchop #myhomestyle #downpillow #accentpillow #karatechopapillow
What if you weren’t scared? What if you knew you What if you weren’t scared?
What if you knew you could?
What if it would make a difference for someone else?
What if it would make you happy?
What if...?You never know until you try, until you say YES, until you make it a goal.Happy Sunday my friends!It’s not impossible. It’s worth it. It’s not pointless. You just will never know. I don’t know about you, but I don’t wanna do regrets. I’d rather do failure. I’d rather say I tried, and I’d rather crawl back bloodied and crying (metaphorically please) and feeling alive then never having attempted.No excuses. Let’s do this. Whatever THIS is. Let’s go! I’m here for you.
Hi, I'm Jill and I'm a magazine hoarder. You're su Hi, I'm Jill and I'm a magazine hoarder. You're supposed to admit things like that right? Sorry, not sorry.I know we all love digital, but there is something fabulous about curling up on the couch with a throw in your lap and a fire going (yes, it's still winter here. I still have my winter decor up, noted alpaca fur rug on the floor). I love touching paper, studying those beautiful images.Although seriously, once in a while I will catch myself touching a photo and trying to zoom it in with my fingers🤦yea, that doesn't work in print. Duh! Anyone else do that? Just me? So you're saying I'm the only crazy one? Great.🙄What's your favorite magazine? If I told you mine, it would be like 10. Choosing one is like picking my favorite child, I swear I don't have one! They all are my favorites (my kids, and well yes, the magazines too!)My daughter is always trying to just get me to "say out loud" that she's my favorite😂but I'm holding strong. I have my favorite son in the whole world, my favorite brown eyed daughter (whose birthday is actually today) and my favorite blue eyed daughter! As luck would have it, I even got to add my favorite green eyed daughter to that list (10+ years and counting💙)So here's to favorites today! Tell me yours in the comments below. Magazines, not kids😂#magazinesarebest #myhomemystyle #magazinehoarder #favoritemagazines
I know what you’re thinking!And no I don’t m I know what you’re thinking!And no I don’t mind a bit of sunshine in my closet ☀️ even if something might fade.I do have UV protection on the window, and if something is staying in one place too long to get faded, then I’m not wearing it enough 😂Plus the sun lasts a very short time on that side of the house. Too much sun is better than none at all!I’m ready for spring! I need all the ☀️ feels!Are you a sun seeker or do you not mind the gray? #sunseeker #suninmycloset #willmyclothesfade #needsundontcare
I love how even crappy pieces of old furniture can I love how even crappy pieces of old furniture can be brought back to life!This dresser seemed like it was almost ready for the burn pile. But with a few repairs, and some Bungalow 47 Furniture Paint (color: Farmhouse Sink), it got a new life.I sure am looking forward to warmer weather, so I can get outside and do some projects. Painting outside is not needed, as the paint is No VOC and has no fumes. But there is still something wonderful about dragging projects outdoors and getting stuff done on a sunny day.So grab your To-Do lists and add that project you've been putting off for years. If you've been waiting for a sign to do it, this is it!#paintfixeseverything #bungalow47chalkandclaypaint #bungalow47furniturepaint #whitedressers #makeitnewmakeityou #paintedfurniture #paintingfurniture
Yesterday was my mother's 89th birthday. My sister Yesterday was my mother's 89th birthday. My sister planned a big family party, via Zoom, that was attended by all of us across the country. Too bad cheesecake can't squeeze through Internet wires.😞I love this picture of the two of us, she was so incredibly beautiful. I was about 2 years old in this photo.I wasn't sure if she would make it to 89. She was diagnosed with colon cancer and had been given about 3 months. Her birthday was that 3 month mark, and she's still here.My mother is a fighter. Always has been, but at this time in her life, she has Alzheimer's and isn't aware of her cancer. She faces each day unaware, only focused on her love of Jesus. I love that even with her Alzheimer's, she remembers her deep loves: my dad, her children and grandchildren, and her Savior.I look around my house and see sooooo many things that were hers. Everywhere I look, I will always be reminded of her. Of things she loved.My mother loves shoes, and I inherited that sentiment. A week and a half ago, I flew to California  to see her. I try to go once a month, as I know her time is closing in. As we sat side by side on the edge of her bed, holding hands, she looked down and said to me "oh what cute shoes!" (I was wearing my leopard print Rothy's)I burst out laughing! This woman can't remember much from moment to moment, but by golly, she knows that she loves shoes and she still notices them.💙Yes, material things are just THINGS. But those things have meaning to some, and they matter. And when I see these things in my home, I think of her. Happy birthday Mom, I love you.#thingsdomatter #fillyourhomewithpersonalthings #blueandwhitehome
