I get the “re-arranging gene” from my mother who every few months feels the need to lacquer a chair or move around art. I’ve inherited this trait along with her nervous energy, creative spirit and arm bumpies-it’s genetics. It’s easiest for me to re-arrange the kid’s rooms since they are constantly growing with the house. Along with adding major moments (such as this Thursday’s bunk bed arrival,) I find it fulfilling to add a detail here and there…and then move them around when I get bored. I found Twiggy and Lou’s sparkly, gold garland on Etsy and have been playing around with where to hang it. Currently it’s decked around a window where I stash the girl’s jewelry boxes, barrettes and piggy banks. But by tomorrow I’m sure it will be somewhere else.


Thank you, I’m flattered! And you can look forward to the arm bumpies finally going away when you get to be “a certain age”.
