Forgive me. Relying on bad Easter puns in a blog headline is not only cheep humor, it’s a hare irresponsible. Now let’s move very quickly to this week’s post. Just in time for the season, I’m happy to share some fun tips for decorating Easter eggs. Ready? Let’s hop to it!

In this last post of 2023 I wish you, and your home, the happiest of holidays! If you’ve read my blogs, you know I think of a home as having a heart and soul and personality, so the sentiment seems appropriate. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support. You’ve helped make this a pivotal year for The Redesign Habit and that is an amazing gift I will always treasure. No matter where our business journey takes us, I’m grateful to have your support during these first, most scary and challenging steps.

Happy holidays to you! Many of us are starting to feel the “holiday crunch,” and no I don’t mean a tasty treat – although treats are on my mind, and in my tummy, lately. I mean the feeling that there’s too much to do and little time and money to get it all done. The three recipes that I am going to share with you today will make at least part of your holiday planning a little easier and certainly more delicious!

Summer is officially here! Results may vary, depending on your location. Here in Southern California it finally feels like summer has arrived. We are lovin’ those epic rays!

No rocket science here, just a few simple ideas you may not have considered lately to make your outdoors become the “great” outdoors.

Today’s blog continues my holiday tradition of trying to make the holidays easier and sweeter for you. Everyone is very busy at this time of year and budgets are stretched, so my gift to you are these super simple recipes that are fairly inexpensive to make. Placed in colored cellophane, tied up with pretty ribbon or placed in a cute little basket lined with festive fabric or tissue paper, and you’ll have wonderful homemade holiday gifts for everyone from teachers to neighbors.

With the holidays fast approaching, our thoughts often turn to our home and whether or not things are as good as they can be to welcome our friends and family in. Maybe you have a couple of smaller projects that you have on your to-do list to make that happen. Maybe you feel you don’t have the time or energy to tackle these things before the holidays. Things can get so crazy at this time of year, and if you’re anything like me, your mind might be spinning on how and what to try and accomplish to have you and your home feel “holiday-ready”. Well, my advice is to take a step back, clear your head, and think about what “home” is really all about.
