Happy Friday 11/13/20

Happy Friday! How was your week? We had a photo shoot for a magazine at the Farmhouse this week (our very first). Not going to lie, we cleaned for dayyyssss beforehand and then re-cleaned everything the kids messed up again ;) It was really fun to watch the professionals work and see how they envisioned our home - I tried to soak it all up. In the end, I feel like I got a mini education and bonus, we have a super clean house heading into the weekend. Yay!

A $70K Remodel turns a tiny Oregon cabin into an idyllic home for a family of four. This has long been a favorite remodel of mine and I loved reading more about life inside this 540sf home. (dwell)

The stylist who was at our house for the magazine shoot commented on our hand soap and dish soap no less than 5 times. Public Goods has the prettiest simple packaging and the best mission (psst: use code GRITANDPOLISH for 20% off your first order through Tuesday and be sure to take advantage of their free 2-week membership trial!).
