Just merged two homes into one after eight years, Just merged two homes into one after eight years, and for the first time, everything’s under one roof. So why do I have eleven spatulas? 😂 Which means decluttering and downsizing. (And yes, four trips to Goodwill in one day.) I’m in my “if I don’t love it, I don’t need it” era—and honestly? It feels kind of like peace. More on the blog—link’s in my bio. #declutteringjourney #homeedit #downsizinglife #goodwillrun #makinghome #twohomestoone #heartofgrandma #theheartofgrandma
Sometimes the kindest thing you can do is show up Sometimes the kindest thing you can do is show up with cookies. 🍪 No reason. No holiday.
