Empty Nesting: Home Style Ideas for Saturday Makeovers

img 120196 1

Hi friends! Saturdays seem to arrive more quickly than ever. Maybe it’s because I’m paying closer attention to time now that I’m sharing these weekend roundups, or perhaps it’s simply the steady rhythm of the weeks. Lately I’m noticing small moments I’ll miss when life changes — like my son making a sandwich — and savoring them a bit more.

Jack’s been sticking to Luke like velcro. I think he knows.

Earlier this year I shared some thoughts about the approaching empty-nest season; if you missed it, you can find that reflection on my blog.

Below are a few inspiring posts and ideas to enjoy this weekend. At the very bottom I’ve included details about the book tour and giveaway — the giveaways remain open through the weekend so you can visit each stop and enter.

Have a lovely weekend, dear friends. Your comments on the blog and on Instagram have been such a blessing. Thank you for your kindness and friendship; I’m truly grateful for all of you.
