Hi! I’m Julie and I am humbled that you are perusing my little corner of this sometimes noisy and chaotic world wide web! I’m single with two awesome dogs, Dixie, a sweet faced chocolate Labradoodle and Etta a sometimes grumpy blonde Spanish Water Dog.
We like pretty things!
I am NOT a minimalist. Ha! Although, I don’t believe more is more. But I do like to be prepared!
I’ve been an Estate Manager and Personal Assistant/Lifestyle Manager for almost 20 years. My experience working within multi-million dollar estates and for uber high-net worth clients I often have to entertain guests with very little notice. Caring for these homes has given me an opportunity to filter out and get to what truly makes a house a home and how to welcome in an overnight guest with ease and comfort.
My hope for this space is to bring some tips on how to entertain well without the stress but with all the comfort. I may throw in some modern manners tips too. 😉
I love Instagram and Pinterest….come on over!

Let me know what questions and/or feedback you have for me. I’ll get back to you as quickly as I can.
Thanks! I look forward to hearing from you.
