Hi, I'm Jennifer! That's me, standing in front of a wall filled with bars of soap. And this is my blog dedicated to carefully-considered & beginner-friendly home decor tips for creating warm and welcoming spaces. "Carefully-considered" because I'm someone who has to conduct about 8374075 hours of research before making a simple design decision. And "beginner-friendly", because that's me, a beginner. I am a scientist by training, with absolutely zero interior design experience. When I became a homeowner and Airbnb host, I scoured the internet, desperate for easy-to-follow tips and design ideas to furnish my spaces. I had absolutely no idea what I was looking for, how to style cozy rooms, when to splurge vs. get the dupe, or where to find deals. It felt completely overwhelming. So, I figured I might as well take my countless hours of home decor research and put it all in one place. I'll share what I've learned when it comes to creating warm, inviting spaces, and we can continue to learn together!
