April 10, 2026
If you’ve ever spotted a cheeky brass monkey lamp or wallpaper filled with little monkeys swinging through vines and thought, why is this a thing? -- you’re not alone.
Monkeys in home décor might feel like a quirky, slightly unexpected choice, but they actually have a long (and surprisingly sophisticated) history in interiors.

And once you know the story, it makes their charm feel even more intentional.

Understated Easter Carrot Wreath
March 27, 2026
There's nothing wrong with going all out for Easter decorating, if that's your thing. It's easy to get caught up with bunnies and eggs and baskets. I did it for many years while our kids were growing up. (I have the bins in the basement to prove it.)
However, these days I'm more into a laid back vibe for most holidays. Yes, you can have laid back, understated, even (dare I say) elegant Easter decor.
