I'm an entrepreneur and creative who believes that all things start at home.

hey, I'm EMILY

we bought our very first house! It was very much the typical cookie-cutter, builder-grade home, but are slowly making it our own! Like you, we are ballin' on a budget so our best friends are a bucket of paint and youtube videos. We are focused on small projects that have big impact and I love sharing the process on instagram and, soon, the blog!

in 2021,

Most days you'll find Jonah and I cuddling up with our two chihuahuas, hanging out in our backyard or working on a home project that I most definitely dragged him into against his will. Oops! While most girls love Target, my most visited stores are Lowes and the local thrifts. I'm a sucker for gummy candy and a sparkling herbal water. Oh and if you ever come over, I will most definitely make you a yummy homemade collagen latte and ask if you want to lay on my acupressure massage mat ;) 

I'm a mountain girl living in coastal North Carolina (hello military life).

I started sharing bits and pieces of my life on instagram in 2018. It was a creative outlet for me - sharing about my wellness journey, mountain trips, etc - but it slowly evolved into something bigger than I could ever imagine. 

Becoming an influencer was never on my radar, but it's something I take very seriously. I absolutely love working with responsible companies and I promise to be one of the good ones.

this was not on my life bingo card
