Through practical tips on decor inspiration, thrifting, and personal homemaking traditions, Christie shows you how to craft a space that feels wholly yours. With insights drawn from her own experiences, you’ll discover how to build sacred spaces that promote rest, welcome, and healing.
With creativity and care, you can cultivate comfort in the house where you live.
