As florists, we’re so thankful for Valentine’s Day and also happy when it’s behind us. Will and I own seven flower shops (Williams Flower and Gift) here in the Puget Sound that were originally started up by his parents when he was just a little boy, so his idea of Valentine’s Day (and Mother’s Day,

It may be obvious, but I think it’s worth mentioning that I don’t have any interior design qualifications. That’s what I love about this modern DIY internet age, though! I (you! we!) can learn anything! I’m a fresh student of this art, and I hope that all the love I pour into my home projects

At the end of a productive “Girl Power” project day, my mom and I decided to wrap up time day together by hanging a piece of decorative art that my youngest sister Lissie helped me revive a few weeks ago. With a fresh coat of linen white chalk paint, it was ready for its new
