I fulfilled a dream a while ago, and I bought a house. Not only a house, but a 100 year old house with so much charm (and so much that I need to fix up). Here is my never ending and always added to list of Stuff I Bought For My 100 Year Old House. Lots of things are “this is the temp solution while I figure out what I want / can afford the real thing”. Because sometimes, home building is building steps along the way! …Sometimes literally!
When our cat died we wanted to make something to remember him by, so we decided to make a mosaic garden paver as a grave marker.

My kids want to design their own and make more now too. Hope you find what you need and feel free to ask questions about my process!
Find yourself some AMAZING room decor! Fully set the vibe with some nature, good lighting of your choice from our list, posters to unclear those BORING walls, and way more! All the products listed are some of the best rated items I have/found.
