The quiet before the love... GiGi, Nonna & PawPaw

The quiet before the love... GiGi, Nonna & PawPaw will all be here together soon, and oh the memories we’re going to make here in this kitchen 🥰🥰🥰 It will be first time they’re going to see the house since we moved in and I can’t wait to make those memories that we’ll talk about for years to come. “The first Christmas in our house” ❤️

I need to apologize! I’ve been promising certain

I need to apologize! I’ve been promising certain content and resources for the last few months and realize I have fallen short on delivering it to you. I’ve been a one woman show for so long now, and even though it was never easy, at one point I was actually able to deliver you all the things I’ve promised while still running my every day business behind the scenes. Well, I’ve hit my limit and have completely maxed myself out. I will always prioritize my clients, and in realizing that’s something about me that will never change, I’ve finally made the decision to hire help in several other areas of my business. One being, helping me get all my ideas, thoughts, home design, styling tips, recipes, and more on “paper” to share with all of you! 2021 is bringing a lot of change and growth and I’m so excited to have you along the ride with me! Over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing more about the ways Maria Murphy Creative is expanding and how you could possibly be apart of that growth as well! #cheersto2021 #bigthingscoming

Instagram vs reality.... or more accurately... diapers vs potty training 🙃 We finally decided to start potty training Mason since Josh and I were both home and taking a little time off of work this next week. Let the festivities begin 😂😅😩 Praying he learns QUICK!!! #sendhelp #sendwine #pottytrainingproblems

I’ve been working away every weekend to get unpacked and settled in, and even though we’re still not done, there was no way I wasn’t going to decorate for Christmas this year! We needed this joy, BAD!!! I smile every time I walk out and see our tree! I spent this past weekend taking lots of pictures and videos so I can finally share a little more of our home with you all!! I know so many of you have been asking and I can’t wait to share! Love you all so so much!

There she is 😭 In all her glory! We’ve been h

There she is 😭 In all her glory! We’ve been here a little over a month now, but I still cant believe she’s ours. Designing this home has been a process, starting with long nights sketching out ideas, working with my mom @albdesigninc to have it come to life on paper, and then working with the amazing top notch @dwelldesigned team to build it and the lovely @bekahcochranteam @lcmitchell1 for helping us through the home buying process. Through what has been one of the hardest and most challenging years of my life, building this home has been a blessing from God that we will forever be grateful for. We’ll honor his blessing by making it a home filled with special memories, lots of laughs, good food, forgiveness, patience, gatherings with friends and family, and LOVE.. lots and lots of love! Praise be to God 🙏🏼❤️🙌🏼

Swipe to see the whole process, from my original rendering to the gorgeous hand drawn sketch from my mom!

Open shelves vs closed cabinets? Just like anythin

Open shelves vs closed cabinets? Just like anything, there’s positives and negatives to both. Open shelves gives a more lived in open vibe. But cabinets offer more storage. My favorite? You guessed it.. a combination of BOTH! The biggest negative (and only negative in my opinion) of doing open shelves is the dust! So adding glass door cabinetry still gives you the open look while also protecting your dishes from dust!

What do you think?? Do you have a favorite? Curious if you have a preference?! Also taking a poll in stories!!

Adding a touch of something old to bring history and character into a new home is key. This larger oil painting has a lot of sentimental value to me.. check out my stories today (or in “our home” highlight) to see why, and where I decided to hang it 🥰
