I'm looking for gardening tips for beginners. How do you know what to grow?
Does anyone here pride themselves on having a green thumb? Can you share some beginner tips with someone (read: me 😅) who doesn't know where to start with gardening? I'm wondering how you know what to grow in different conditions. There's so much information online. Any tips are appreciated!

Bottle Brush Tree Embellishments
I just snagged these bottle brush trees at Anthropologie a few weeks back for $4 each (they're definitely left over from last year but match my holiday decor perfectly). I was thinking about embellishing them… taking votes. Would you do little bows like this, pearls or gold mini balls, something else entirely?

Dried fruit garland tips?
A couple years ago, I DIYed a dried fruit garland, and it took FOREVER. (Like, 4 or 5 hours.) Does anyone have any tips for speeding up the process or simplifying? Or any tips for how to mix it up/make it look better this year? I used lemon, grapefruit, and orange the first time around.

Is their a faux holiday garland brand you swear by?
I'm looking to add more faux garland to our holiday decor scheme this year. Sometimes the ones I see recommended online can arrive looking pretty thin. I know the trick is to sometimes buy two and wrap them together, but has anyone been pleasantly surprised with faux holiday garland they've purchased online recently?…

Are you decorating for Halloween?

Spiderwebs, pumpkin painting, something else? I have a few…

Hiding an air conditioner in plain sight
Does anyone have any ideas of how to hide a window unit AC in plain sight when not in the window? We take our AC out of the window at the end of the season every year. We used to hide it behind our couch but that’s no longer an option. I was thinking of having box made so that would mask the unit and it could double as a…

If you could wave a magic wand & have one home project completed for you, what would it be? 🪄
For me, I would have to choose our upstairs bathroom renovation. It's a pretty major project that my husband and I have been putting off, mainly because of costs and we already have a bathroom downstairs so it doesn't feel totally essential. I think we'll finally get started in the spring, but it would be so nice to have…
