Iām officially back on the YouTubes today at 4pst! Meet the newest member of our little family and flip some smalls with me.
Iāve just been soaking up ALLLLL the baby snuggles I can since this stage is so fleeting. And honestly I havenāt wanted to share him, I still donāt š. But itās time for me to get back to work. So hereās our sweet Nicholas. Just assume he will be helping me just like Lucas did when he was teeny tiny.
Thanks for being patient while I took some time off. And a big thank you to those of you who reached out to make sure we were doing ok- weāve been GREAT š„°

You all have been cracking me up over this guy. I didnāt see it until Cathy pointed it out, but now I canāt unsee an owl with a mustache š¤£ In case you were wondering, weāve named him Frank.

Anyone else love candle snuffers as much as I do? I found this little gem last week when the search was going great. Of course, this week when my mom is here visiting, we go on the prowl and thereās next to nothing š I think I picked up MAYBE 6 things yesterday at two different stores.

Well, it was an interesting week to say the least! We knew there was a storm coming so I packed up some smalls from the shop to work on at home. Itās a good thing, too! We were snowed/iced in for almost a week. Lucas was out of school for the whole week. My poor husbandās car was the landing pad for a huge tree š£. We did manage to get some sledding done before the driveway was fully shoveled. And I got my stuff painted, photographed and put on the website AND got my video up. We are just so incredibly blessed that we only lost power for a few hours, my husband and I could work from home, no one was hurt (car excluded) and we got to have some cozy family time together. Also- I want to throw out a HUGE thank you to you all- itās been my largest sales week on the website. I cannot express enough how grateful I am to all of you who support me and my tiny business in ALL the ways you do. THANK YOU!

Well, I can honestly say Iāve never picked up a piece with more layers of paint on it than this oneā¦. It may be what is actually holding it together. So far I have brown, brown again, blue, cream, pink, white and more brown. And Iām only using Citristrip currently because of the baby so you can imagine how long this is taking. Quick, send in the reinforcements.

Hi, my name is Taryn and I'm a wife to an amazing man, a mother of one adorable little toddler, two wonderful step kids (or as I like to say, my additionals), and a fine art photographer. I suppose this will be my journey. I started this whole thing because I wanted to be able to stay home with my baby while doing something creative and bring home some additional funds for our family. Four years later and heās āhelpedā me with almost every piece.
My husband and I are just doing this thing called life trying to figure out what works best for our family. We would love for you to join us while we try and make some extra money to buy a home!
