A simple winter DIY + something big coming next

Hi Reader,

I wanted to pop into your inbox and share a few recent things with you—along with a little peek at what’s coming next.

First, I just published a new blog post for a gentle, nourishing DIY that’s perfect this time of year: a calendula and chamomile sugar scrub.

It’s one of those simple recipes that feels like a small act of care—for your hands, your skin, and even your spirit during this slower season.
If you enjoy making things from scratch and keeping your home remedies simple, I think you’ll really love this one.

I also shared a new YouTube video where I walk through the process and talk a bit more about why these kinds of small, homemade rituals matter so much in our home—especially during the winter months.

And finally… I wanted to let you know that a new video is coming this weekend.

In it, I’m sharing what I’m focusing on for our family as we head into the new year, and how that’s shaping the direction of my content moving forward—what I’m leaning into, what I’m simplifying, and what I’m excited to share more of with you. It feels very aligned, very intentional, and very “us.”

Thank you, as always, for being here—for reading, watching, and choosing a slower, more natural way alongside me. I’m so grateful for this community.

With love,

Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas Reader, I just wanted to take a moment to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas. This season always feels like a gentle pause—a reminder to slow down, gather close, and soak in the simple things. Warm meals, candlelight, quiet mornings, children’s laughter, and the comfort of being home. At the heart of Christmas, I’m reminded of the greatest gift of all—God’s love made known to us.
