MY BACKYARD / PORCH 🏡🍋

After a year of hard work & love, my little backyard oasis is finally complete! ✨🌿 A perfect blend of southern charm, boho vibes, & country comfort. It’s the cozy, peaceful retreat I’ve always dreamed of. Feels just like home. 💫

When my boyfriend & I first moved here.. YA’LL. The backyard was total trash…lol seriously awful!

We have put A LOT of hours into hauling off junk, ripping down old chicken coops, raking the yard endless amounts of times, we’ve really put so much hard work into our little house & let me tell you, every bit of it was worth it, looking back now, because I couldn’t be more happy. Seriously. It’s OURS & it feels like us & I just love it.

Don’t keep putting whatever indoor/outdoor home project off any longer, just get started even if it’s 20 mins at a time.. trust me, you won’t regret it once you start to see some results.

Also, it can be fun (sometimes a lil argumentative lol) to do projects like this with your bf/gf/spouse, & bring you closer together all at the same time

... Read moreCreating a backyard oasis is more than just landscaping; it’s about transforming a space into a sanctuary that reflects your personal style. Many homeowners find inspiration in combining various design aesthetics, such as bohemian style with rustic elements. To begin your own backyard transformation, assess the space and determine what features are essential for relaxation and enjoyment. This might include adding comfortable seating areas, incorporating plants that thrive in your climate, and choosing decorative elements that resonate with your personality. It's also important to prioritize functionality; think about how you want to use the space—whether for entertaining guests, family gatherings, or peaceful solitude. One approach to spark creativity is to browse through social media platforms like Instagram and Pinterest, where numerous backyard makeover ideas are shared. Engaging with community forums or local gardening clubs may provide additional insights and inspiration. For couples embarking on this project together, it can be a bonding experience—turning work into play as you collaborate on your vision. Embrace the process, take small steps, and remember that every bit of effort pays off, yielding a rewarding sanctuary you’ll cherish for years to come.

The white pumpkin I’ll always keep on my porch
I didn’t know what white pumpkins meant until after my miscarriage in 2018… now, every time I see one, I stop. It’s such a gentle reminder that love doesn’t end where life does. If you’ve experienced a loss like this, I hope you know your grief is valid, your love is real, and your story matters.

My happy place 🌿🌿🌿
I’ve been gardening for about 9 years now. If you want to start gardening the biggest tip I can give is to just jump in. Don’t overwhelm yourself with feeling like you have to know everything before starting. It’s okay to buy starter plants from your local home improvement store or nursery.

This simple planter combo not only looks cute but actually helps keep bugs away while you relax outside. Think basil, lavender, lemon balm, and marigolds all working together 💚 ✨ Pro tip: Gently brush the leaves when you’re sitting outside to release more scent — that’s when it works best Sa

Give me twinkle lights, cozy ferns, glowing pumpkins, and a doormat that says hey there, pumpkin—and I’m set for fall evenings. 🍂🎃 This is your reminder that your porch deserves a seasonal glow-up too—because nothing says welcome home like fairy-lit pumpkins and a cozy corner. 🪴✨ #CozyVibes
