Happy Friday 8/13/21
Happy Friday! How are you? Goodness there was sure a fresh chill to the air in the mornings this week. But we brushed that away with 100-degree temps and reminded ourselves that there’s still plenty of summer left in summer. A whole month of it, in fact! Thank goodness!

I put together a little indoor herb garden last week in preparation for the months ahead! I’m trying out rosemary, oregano, thyme, parsley, and chives in these pretty whitewashed pots. Fingers crossed I get enough light in here!
Here are some fun links from the week…

I sent this image to our cabinet maker this week who’s working up a bid for fir board and batten for our primary bathroom remodel! We’re thinking only two squares/rectangles vertically so it’d be a little different but wouldn’t it be pretty?! (@sabbeinteriordesign)
