How to Press Flowers and Make Pressed Flower Art
June 29, 2025
I've always been in love with pressed flowers. So much so that I grew nasturtiums in the garden just so I could make pressed flower art creations with them.
While I sowed that one flower in particular for pressing, I learned that other flowers in my summer flower garden also work well as pressed flowers. And once they bloomed I got to work.

5 Things to Buy at Thrift Stores: A Thrifting Starter Guide
June 14, 2025
Thrift stores* are great places to buy so many things! There's really no downside in my opinion -- you save money, help save the planet, get something unique and possibly one-of-a-kind AND you get to have the thrill of the hunt (perhaps my favorite upside)!

I've wanted swan planters like these for a long time, so I've basically been in heaven and having fun styling them for the first time.
