About Me

Hello there, I'm Kendra, and I'd love to share a bit about my journey with you. 

I grew up in the fresh green, (and often rainy) Puget Sound area, (Washington State), where our homestead was nestled on a mountainside. It was a place where running water and electricity were rare commodities, and power outages were a regular part of life.  Bring in the love for candles and lanterns.

As a child, I had the unique experience of raising and milking goats, riding ponies to explore our (what seemed) expansive 5-acre homestead, and learning the true meaning of self-sufficiency. We didn't have much, but we embraced a hygge lifestyle, creating warmth and coziness from scratch. It was through those challenging times that I developed a deep appreciation for simplicity, the beauty of nature, and the power of creativity. Now, as a full-time mom with kids in middle school and college, I draw upon those formative years to inspire my family and others through my blog, sharing tales of farm life, DIY tips, and the magic of crafting a hygge lifestyle from the heart.

As I share my journey and experiences, my goal is to not only inspire but also provide practical guidance. Each week, I'll be offering suggestions and links to products that can help you tap into your own heart and find what stirs comfort and coziness in your life. Whether it's in the kitchen, where we'll explore culinary quests and delightful recipes, the dining room, where we'll discuss decor and creating inviting spaces, the bedroom, where we'll delve into relaxation and restful retreats, or the family room, where we'll celebrate togetherness and bonding, I'm here to be your guide. Together, we'll uncover the little treasures that bring warmth and joy to your everyday life.
