feels like home
Welcome to my little corner of the internet…but it’s less of a corner and more like a whole house. So come on in!
Much like a good DIY or home renovation, life can be a little messy sometimes, and it’s very likely that there’s dust everywhere. But that is what we’re all about over here. Creating the magnificent from the mundane, and enjoying every part of the process along the way!

At the core of who we are —
simple living, repurposed goods, and thoughtful design.
What’s been happening on the ‘gram?
↠ It’s officially the Christmas season, and even though these photos are from weeks ago because our house is in the midst of being packed up right now, I’m still so thankful that we get to experience just a smidge of this season in this home. I’m absolutely distraught thinking about the fact that our sweet boy isn’t going to wake up in his little nursery on his first Christmas morning since we’ll have just moved out, but, we’re all going to be together and I think that’s what’ll make this the best Christmas yet. Not a beautiful home filled with Christmas decor, or a perfectly curated space. If you’re in a season where things aren’t quite the way you imagined, just know that there is still goodness in the between, in the waiting, and the in the “not quite there yet” moments. Happy Christmas season friends!

↠ The secret’s out—— we’re moving! Oh the lessons we have learned this past year. Moving across the country to a fixer upper home while pregnant, and then renovating that home while becoming parents for the first time, all while living in the biggest house I’ve ever lived in on the most land I’ve ever owned…is not a recipe I would recommend! Don’t get me wrong, we love our home and where we live. We’ve poured so much into it. However, a few months back, we finally came to one an another in a place of exhaustion, desperately seeking change. Through much conversation, we realized that our big homestead dreams had shifted since having a baby, and for this season, we needed to make some changes!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
First off, we really wanted to downsize. I need to be able to manage my home well and having a big house was not the solution for this season! Secondly, Zach was spending so much time tending to the land and house projects that we just were not getting any quality time resting as a family. Plus, with me stepping away from social media work, we needed to re-evaluate financially too. So here we are. A few months after having these long, difficult discussions with sunshine at the end of the tunnel, alas! We’re moving!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Selling our home and property has been such a bittersweet process, oh my. But our trade off is going to be so worth it to us. Downsizing means more time spent together, less time I have to scurry about managing a big ole house, and we’re going to be moving closer to our friends and church, which means no more spending countless hours a week driving to and from. It really is such a blessing the way this all worked out. Did we have to learn this lesson the hard way? Absolutely. But we’re grateful that we were both on the same page, and we’re excited for what’s to come!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We found a small, humble abode, a little two bedroom beauty and we move in just a few weeks. I’m just so excited to join the small house club for this season. Who’s with me?

↠ Changing out the sheets, quilts, and pillows for the seasons is up there on my list of favorite pastimes, anyone else? Went a little darker this year with deep browns and olive tones, and I think I’m in love, hehe. Something about the richer colors feels more mature to me, and makes my eyes swoon! #citizenmade

the gal you want to go thrifting with.
Greetings, I’m Alivia —— I’m a photographer and DIY’er with a deep appreciation for simple living, repurposed goods, and thoughtful design.
My love for intentional design and a good thrift find has heavily influenced my work as a photographer. I used to pride myself on traveling to at least eleven countries a year and kept a note of how many flights I had ever been on, but then we bought a house and everything changed. Now I find moments of peace right here at home, when the afternoon light hits the wall just right, when my throw pillows look perfectly imperfect on the couch, and when I stumble upon a hundred year old thrift find. I’m all about turning the mundane into the magnificent, and enjoying all the moments in between, cause that’s the good stuff! Things that inspire me: times of rest, frolicking through a wheat field, the color beige, and feeling the presence of our divine Creator. So whether in a flower covered field, refreshing a space in my own home, or strolling through a small town antique shop, I strive to tell visual stories by embracing natural beauty, the thoughtfully repurposed, and the simplicity that comes along with making a house a home for the modern day homestead.
