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?

I’ve been loving this vintage slip turned tree skirt so much! So of course, when I was out picking this week, I found the perfect little slip crinoline that would make a great tree skirt. So you know what that means? Gonna need to drag out another tree to showcase this one! No worries, being a vintage collector (aka hoarder) I’ve got some cutie little pink bulbs that I could scrounge up. Know what I’ll be doing later! What are y’all up to today? #vintageslips #fromsliptotreeskirt #vintagestyle

I kind of jumped on the Santa mug bandwagon this year, when I ran across a box of them at an estate sale in July.These are the ones I saved to 'start' my collection, and others I took to my booth to sell. Most have already been sold, but there are still a few left.I love how every face is different! Some are cuter than others, and I have even seen a few creepy ones!😂Like no one wants a creepy Santa mug (well, maybe some do). Like what is up with the weird things from our childhood that were meant for kids but were so creepy? Like clowns? 🤡Immediately, no.Who out there is collecting Santa mugs? I'd love to see your collection. Post a pic in the comments if you've got some!#vintagesantamugs #santamugmania #vintagecollectionsforthewin

Thanksgiving is officially over and Christmas is f

Thanksgiving is officially over and Christmas is full steam ahead. The weather here sure is making it seem like the holidays, although we don't always get a white Christmas.But don't you love that whole Norman Rockwell picturesque feeling of a beautiful and happy Christmas for all? If only real life was like that. I know not everyone has happy memories of the season, and the holidays are especially hard if you're missing the ones you love.Whatever your circumstances, I hope you are enjoying a bit of the season. I'm soaking it all up, and especially enjoying the view through eyes of my little loves.Cheers to holiday decorating! Christmas decor for the win!#thanksgivingisover #getoutyourchristmasstuff #decorateforchristmas

Okay now, it's ON like Donkey Kong!Thanksgiving

Okay now, it's ON like Donkey Kong!Thanksgiving is behind us, we're all in our fat pants, and everything should be decorated for the season by now. Are you feeling it? The joy, the blessings of the season?I feel like from now until the end of the year, time is going to just be whizzing by. So remember to stop a bit, smell the...pinecones (?) and keep this feeling in your heart as long as you can.Make time to enjoy the decor, and set limits on what you can reasonably get done. I remember years ago when our boy was a toddler (okay like 35 years ago 🤦‍♀️) we were frantically buying too many presents and assembling a Little Tikes playhouse for him.That did not go well, and we ended up NOT enjoying that particular Christmas scene. So... learned then that 1. we DO NOT do assembly projects together, that is now a one person project and 2. children DO NOT need as many toys at Christmas as we think they do since 9 times out of 10 they end up playing with the cardboard box. 🙄Since my days of assembling large play houses are over, I'm going to grab some hot cocoa, put my feet up, and watch a totally sappy Hallmark movie (or two). Who's with me?#christmastime🎄 #cherishedChristmas #Jesusisthereasonfortheseason

Let's talk about some Thanksgiving trauma from the

Let's talk about some Thanksgiving trauma from the past🤣No, it's not this terrible euchre hand I had. But that's what we do: we play games, tell stories (sometimes the same ones), laugh a lot, eat way too much, and there's always a group that wants to go to the movies.So one year, someone thought it would be a good idea to head to the big box stores that were doing crazy sales that started at midnight. What a stupid concept. Good thing they gave this up, take a day off man!Anyway, I really DO NOT KNOW how I got talked into this, because I am not a fan of Black Friday. Like I do not shop it. Ever.This is the day I choose to stay at home, finish (or start) decorating for Christmas, and I do not leave my house.However, for some reason I agreed to go, most likely peer pressure. Or (adult) kid pressure. So they made me go to Walmart.I cannot begin to express the horror that ensued, as there were 47 million people at said Walmart, and once you entered the store, they had a ROPED OFF, ONE WAY LANE you had to walk, which means you had to walk through the entire store, super slow, with crowds like it was Disney.Frankly, Disney is the only place I like crowds. That and sporting events or concerts. Shopping, nope. Like I seriously was almost hyperventilating and those weirdos that were with me, had to literally drag me through the store until I could get out.I'm traumatized. Still. So if you ask me if I will be shopping Black Friday, the answer is a HARD PASS. I'm very uninterested in that option, and forever will be.#blackfridaynope #youcantmakeme

Get your fat pants on, it's time to eat!Hope you

Get your fat pants on, it's time to eat!Hope you are enjoying this holiday of thanks!Can I just express a bit of thankfulness to you, my friend?Thanks for following along with me, on this fun journey of creating. I hope that you are safe and sound, in your lovely home that you have created to be a haven for you and your loved ones!Happy Thanksgiving!

There is an amazing part and a not so amazing part

There is an amazing part and a not so amazing part about having a professional pastry chef in the family. This would be my fabulous daughter-in-law.Obvi, the best part is everything she makes is freaking delicious. The bad part is everything she makes is freaking delicious🤣Yea, the scale is going to be screaming at me by the weekend, but whatever she makes this year will be amazeballs, as usual.I love this pumpkin roll from a Thanksgiving past. I love me some pumpkin, but I DO NOT eat pumpkin pie. I can't. I haven't since I had my first child 38 years ago, and started changing diapers.🤢 Now it's a NO for me dawg.I should really go look for my sweatpants. I think I'm going to need them on Thursday.

MEMORIES: Throwin' it back to our first Thanksgivi

MEMORIES: Throwin' it back to our first Thanksgiving we held in our first empty nest house!We always have a house full at the holidays and this house made it super cozy, but we worked it out. Even though we were limited on space, we managed to have a sit down with 16 people.Thanksgiving is such a great time for table settings, and no matter the holiday, I am always happy to use my milk glass pieces.These large scalloped plates are the size of chargers, so we use them frequently for get togethers. My table is always a mix of vintage and new dinnerware. My youngest daughter, the baby, is the one who is super creative so we always put her in charge of the name cards.It will be all hands on deck this year for the meal. What's your favorite thing to eat on Thanksgiving?#milkglassattheholidays #thanksgivingtable #vintagedishes

MEMORIES: Throwin' it back to Thanksgiving 2015, w

MEMORIES: Throwin' it back to Thanksgiving 2015, when my middle daughter (the one we call the food Nazi) lived in Charlotte, NC.We road-tripped it down there with the car filled with a pile of vintage stuff that needed to get out of my house and go to hers, and barely enough room for the dog to sit in the back.We made pies and pudding from scratch. Frankly, we made everything from scratch, because this girl came by that nickname rightly! Like you don't just open a can of chicken stock to make your dressing, you first make the chicken stock from scratch!We went on a hayride at our favorite place Lazy 5 Ranch (it's a drive-thru zoo and if you are ever near Mooresville, NC you gotta go!), ate way too much, I built a kitchen table for them, snuggled babies, and some of us napped.Always gotta do a little DIY project when you visit, you know?Here's to making more memories this Thanksgiving week!#thanksgivingwithfamily
