Day to Day

I created my dream backyard… and then I had to w I created my dream backyard… and then I had to walk away from it.
And honestly? That was so damn hard.
It was my most viral moment — the backyard everyone fell in love with.
And I did too. It felt like I needed it.
But I’ve come to realise… I don’t.
I’m okay.
And one day, I’ll create something even more magical.
But for now, I just want to honour this little piece of my past — the one that made it to Pinterest boards, sparked conversations,
and even inspired some of your backyards too.
Maybe you found me through that space,
and stayed through the post-divorce chapter.
Either way, I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m learning that we really do have to let go —
to let something else in.
We get so focused on what we’re afraid to lose,
that we forget what we could gain.
And how good it could really get.

So just for a moment, picture your dream life.
Not just what it looks like…
but what it feels like.
What if the greatest loss…
is actually never finding out how good it could’ve been?
DIY buried treasure box ✨ I wanted to create so DIY buried treasure box ✨ 
I wanted to create something really special for Cruz’s 7th birthday. He loves collecting crystals, gemstones and shells — so I picked up a cute pine treasure box, painted it white, added some colour and filled it with crystals, seashells, chocolate coins, and a message in a bottle — all hidden beneath sand for him to dig up like a real-life pirate. Cruz loved it so much! Would your little one love this idea too?
