Rearranging the Family Room and Bringing on Fall!

It’s officially Fall, my friends! We felt it for about 24 hours here in Maryland this week, and now it’s like 90 again. But since the calendar told me Fall is here, I went ahead and got out the bins the other day. I feel pretty boring as a blogger, because every Fall is pretty […]

What a Difference a Little Shelf Can Make
