(Or: How I finally stopped losing my measuring tape every two days.) Our garage workshop used to be… let’s call it “functionally tragic.” Picture this: a sad folding table as my workbench, power tools tangled in a plastic bin, and screws scattered like confetti from a party I didn’t remember attending. Every time I started…

(Or how I accidentally bought a cowhide rug and became a western decor person) Okay so… confession time. I didn’t plan to turn my bedroom into a western-style hideaway. It started with one leather pillow and a trip to a ranch-themed Airbnb, and next thing I knew I was Googling “rustic barn doors” at 1am….
