Welcome, fellow kids!

Hi, I'm Em!
Let's hang out together while I procrastinate and DIY my way though home dec, gardening, and home improvement projects, OR..share a few thoughts on the topic du jour.

Mr. D & D and two-and-a-half spoiled dogs in a house filled with visiting kiddos, lots of love, occasional bickering, and a little bit of...dust and dog hair.
