My Cozy and Festive Guest Room + Gifts (from Walmart!)
This room is my new office. I adore it! I come in here every day for peace and quiet, I love that I have a place not only to be organized for work but to able to quietly think and create (I’m a big introvert!). I will share this space with family and my kids, though, whenever they want to visit. Ha! So with that in mind, I have set up a cozy and festive winter spot where I can daydream, create, read and write, but also as a guest spot for others to relax or stay the night!

It was a shelter through difficult and good times, offering unexpected blessings along the way, even as we turned the page to the next chapter of our lives.
