TRAVEL GUIDE | CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA
This past weekend we were in Virginia visiting one of my boyfriends best friends and his family. This was my third time in Charlottesville and I love it a little more every time. As we boarded our plane we recognized a few faces from our last flight to Virginia. There is something that always feels familiar about this trip, like coming home. Virginia has a way of welcoming even the newest face with open arms.
Usually before I go on a trip I spend hours researching restaurants, things to do & see (often based on the best interior design). Not for this trip though, luckily for us we have amazing hosts to show us around their city. Our friends never fail to have an itinerary for the weekend, highlighting all their favorite spots. Given their track record of amazing stays, we trust them to do so! I love this city and the people so I wanted to share some of the many reasons I love going back. If you ever find yourself in Charlottesville, VA or are looking for an out-of-the-box vacation destination, here is my city guide of all the best things to do, eat and see!

HIS CLOSET MAKEOVER
I would have to say organizing closets is my favorite of all the spaces I do. For many of us, getting dressed in the morning is one of the first steps in our day (after coffee, of course). Having a clean orderly closet sets the mood for the day. If you think of it that way, an often forgotten space becomes actually very important. However the benefits don’t stop in the AM. Having an organized closet with systems means everything has its place. When a client is putting away laundry there is a clear place for every item, making the process easier. Labels, baskets and a little coaching to change habits set our clients up for success. Which means being able to maintain a neat space long after we are gone.

END OF SUMMER | GAME NIGHT
Board games, good friends, deep belly laughs, food & drink – that’s what Game Night is all about! There’s nothing quite like the feeling of getting friends and family together for a night of fun. It’s a bit of work but it’s a labor of love and an awarding one at that! I get a thrill from the process of hosting, which leads me to this blog post! I wanted to share a few of my hosting how-to’s, tips, and game night ideas. It can be as simple or as over the top as you want it. I promise you no matter how big or small your get together the memories will last. So grab a board game and call your friends over!
My older sister was coming in town for the weekend so I decided this was the perfect time to host another game night. It just so happened two of my dear friends from Vegas would also be in town, so I began planning. I always start with fresh flowers and candles as the first layer to the set up.
