There is nothing like being at home. While traveling is exciting, there's nothing like returning to your sanctuary. How cool is it to be able to walk into your own backyard to get your lunch. And then sit on a beautiful porch to enjoy it. Awhh, the little things that bring us joy. To top that, you will have your sister with you to enjoy and love on. That sounds like a "well lived" life!
You are so right! I loooove to travel, but I also looooove to be at home. I'm looking forward to things slowing down a bit so that I can spend some much needed time on that porch and working on some new home projects. But first things first.....Beyonce!!!! lol!!!
GORGEOUS!!!! I love it!!! You are such an awesome and talented young woman!!! You interior decorating skills are phenomenal!!! God bless you during your upcoming travels!!! Enjoy!!! See you next time!!!❤
Awwww thank youuuu......that is so sweet of you to say. I really appreciate your compliment. Decorating my home and having a beautiful space is something that I absolutely love doing. Refreshing the porch this week was (greatly needed) and so much fun! I can't wait to get back home and spend some time out there with my sister and Mark!
Jessica, this back porch refresh is amazing!! It's so warm and cozy. Perfect for relaxation and sipping on a cup of coffee or hot apple cider on those cool mornings. A blessed space, enjoy to the fullest.
Oooooo warm apple cider - my favorite!!! You just got me excited about the fall. The absolute best time to really enjoy the porch is when the weather gets a lot cooler, and I sit out there drinking something warm under a little blanket. We also love sitting out there and watching movies (and football) - I can't wait to get back home to be able to enjoy it!
It's Sunday afternoon and I am getting my Sunday juice. ☺️ I love this channel so much and look forward to your antics. 😊 I can't wait to see what you do next.
And I love that you love this channel so much!!!!! You know me, I'm always up to something, lol!! Mark and I were just planning out all of the projects coming as the travel schedule starts to calm down - so stayed tuned to so much more!!!
This was a nice and relaxing video to watch. You always find the best things at the thrift store. The garden looks great. I will have to try the salad. It looks delicious. So true regarding relationships and letting go of things that no longer serve us. You should definitely do another Q&A. You give great advice.
Thank you friend!!!! I will for sure do another Q+A - I really enjoyed doing it. And yes the thrifting gods were with me for sure. You just never know what you're going to find - and luckily I stumbled on some great pieces!!!
Hi Jessica, loved the video! Every home need a screened in porch. I love what you did to it, beautiful! You picked up some very nice things from the thrift store. Love the table, I can see a piece of glass as the top. Hope you have fun traveling, visiting your parents and friends and family. I'm going to be just like you when I grow up!❤
Thank you!!! 😆 You are so right - a screened in porch is so necessary. Mosquitos absolutely love me, so it’s nice to be able to sit outside without having to worry about them. I arrived in Ohio yesterday evening and it feels so good to be home for a bit to visit family. I’ll be sure to take some video of my parents back yard as it’s the place where I always plant myself most of the time - it’s so cozy! Thanks as always for watching - see ya in 2 weeks!
Your porch looks amazing! I especially love the tall basket with the plant. It is so welcoming and I'm sure your sister will be happy to relax there for a break from NYC. I hope you have a great time with your parents and at the Beyonce concert. Can't wait to see which outfit you chose. We have a screened porch but with the Candadian wildfire smoke and the unusually hot and humid weather here in central NY, we haven't used it much this summer. See you in two! (can't believe it will be August!!)
The tall basket is my favorite as well. When I arrived to my parents house yesterday evening, they just finished watching the video and my Dad said how much he loved it as well. I'll keep my eye out for something similar as I'm treasure hunting and if I find more, I will pick one up for you....and my Dad! My sister and I leave for Detroit tomorrow and I cannot wait. So far the graphic tee and sequin skirt is winning the poll, but we'll what happens on Wednesday evening. See you in August!!! And you're right....how are we already almost in August?
I'm so glad that you enjoyed the video - and thank you again for asking such great questions. I arrived in Ohio last evening and already I'm having a great time hanging out with the family. Next stop - Beyonce!!!
St Croix is a beautiful Island the boat trip was lovely but I don't know.about that hike and those ants I probably would be running for the hills lol I hope at the end of the trail it was worth the trip.
Enjoyed the video, love your thrifted finds! Have you had a chance to work on your pottery? When will you do another drop on your website? I bought a bowl from your last sale that is my absolute favorite you have a great eye!
Thank you!!!!! The thrifting gods were definitely with me. I couldn't believe I was able to find so many good things. I took a break from pottery this summer just because I knew I was going to be out of town so much and wouldn't have the time to commit to being in the studio - but I'll be starting back in September with the goal of doing a holiday drop in Nov/Dec. Stay tuned!!
Thank you so much - they really do add in a little something to the space. Thank you so much for being here and taking the time to comment - I appreciate it more than you know! 😆
I love your You-Tube content. Keep making the videos and sharing your lifestyle, travel, and inspiration. I live in Fayetteville,NC. I love your glasses. Where did you get the frame?
Thank you!!! 🥰 I really do enjoy making these videos each week and I’m so happy that you’re enjoying them! I plan to do a meet up this fall - so knowing that you’re so close, I hope that you’ll be able to come. More details soon! Oh and the glasses are from Amazon! There’s a link in the video description to my store front and they are in the “TikTok made me buy it” folder. 😆
11:11 Come on Jessica time to get out those tools and make a sofa table , Wish I lived close to that thrift store they had some really awesome tables that's why I don't understand why you choose that table ?? 🤔
