Hi there!
I’m tanya
I’m a registered nurse with a lifelong passion for creating beautiful, functional spaces. For over 37 years, my husband Rob and I have transformed homes we love—the last 20+ years here in Northwest Arkansas—blending vintage finds with sustainable design to craft spaces filled with charm and personality.
I homeschooled our three children while nurturing my love for home, garden, and entrepreneurship. Now, I’m blessed to share this journey with my YouTube community of over 4 million views, inspiring others who share my passion for cottage living.
I’m so glad you’re here. Email me anytime at [email protected]
