If you're tired of your boring, colorless kitchen but don't know where to start – come on in. I used to have all grey, black, white and beige. When I started my show Cookin' with Congress, I uncovered a whole world of beautiful vintage kitchenware and now my kitchen is colorful without being kitschy; vibrant without being cheap.

As an architectural designer, I am very selective with my curation. My style is a mix between wabi sabi & scandinave. Check out my items below!

I have a fluffy, shedding dog, so in my house we use a lot of washable Ruggable rugs. Here are the spooky Halloween ones they created for this year. There are doormats, runners, area rugs and round rugs, all with creepy themes.

In the middle of last year, my daughter started asking for her room to transition to something a little more grown-up, while keeping some of her favorite items. She wanted it to be mermaid theme. I knew I was going to be able to repurpose a few items by myself, while others would need to be purchased. The focal point (and main cost) of the room was going to be the most amazing mermaid wall paper. I spent months planning the various DIY projects and watching the wallpaper for a sale to pop-up. In this list, you will find everything used to create the room of a mermaid lover's dreams.

These are some of the fun things in my daughters’ rooms that bring them simple joy and adds comfort.

Very rarely do I WANT to step foot in a Walmart, but I sure find myself on their website often. Whoever the buyer is from their home section is killing it.

I've been using this scent free, allergen friendly mix for years with hard or softened water, and our clothes come out fresh, clean, and no greasy film! (Psst, from testing recipes, I think it's the soap flake additions that generally cause film buildup). This recipe works great for regular loads AND for a 2 wash cycle diaper laundry as well (similar to Esembly's but half the cost to mix in bulk yourself). For a double wash cycle, first wash on cold or warm with regular setting. 2nd wash on hot with heavy duty setting. INGREDIENTS: Washing Soda 2 parts Sodium percarbonate 1 part Baking soda 1 part Ceteraryl alcohol (OPTIONAL 1 tsp) 1 part is equal to 1 cup. I like to get 1 5lb bag of sodium percarbonate, 1 10 lb bag baking soda, and 3 boxes of washing soda to mix at a time.

I'll be your personal shopper! At the core of sustainability is a movement away from buying new, cheap items. Purchasing vintage and secondhand items helps keep them out of the landfill, extends their life, and is often better quality than items made today. Estate sales, flea markets, consignment shops, and antique stores are wonderful resources. In case you live in an area without easy access to those resources…or just want as many options as possible, here are some cool finds on Etsy that are vintage, secondhand, or both! (Disclosure: Some links below are affiliate links. This means that, at zero cost to you, I will earn an affiliate commission if you click through the link and finalize a purchase.)
