How to Keep Dogs Cool in the Summer

How to keep dogs cool and safe during the summer.

Summer has so many positives: The food! The camping! The gardening! The sun not setting until 9PM! Unfortunately, we also have to deal with the stifling heat. I’m originally from the East Coast and it was a big adjustment moving to the Pacific Northwest where most houses, like our cabin, don’t have central AC. I’ve learned a lot of ways to stay cool without central AC for myself, but keeping the dogs cool in summer is just as important.

If your pet is experiencing an emergency, please notify your vet! It’s important to note that I am not a veterinarian. I’m just a pet owner and lover who has a lot of experience keeping my pets cool in the summer heat.

Easy Indoor Plants for Low Light

These indoor houseplants thrive in low light spaces.

One of the reasons we chose our cabin is because of the beautiful, bright light. But there are still dark corners of our home that aren’t suitable for most plants. I consider plants essential for most spaces: they purify the air, add color and can even keep bugs away. A space may not have much light, but that just means you need easy indoor plants for low light. These plants are perfect for shady shelves or windowless bathrooms. I’m also recommending buying plants that are easy to find at most garden centers, but you can easily buy these plants online too.

When you have a smaller home or a home with low ceilings, lighting can be a challenge. You don’t want to bonk your head on the lighting and you don’t want fixtures that overwhelm a space either. The solution? Modern, semi flush mount lighting.

Over the last 15 years, semi flush mount lighting has come a long way in terms of design. Gone are the days when everyone had the same old “boob” light hanging in their entryway or hallway. Now semi flush mount lighting choices are more modern, sleek and dare I say, sexy?

My Cozy Cabin Home Office & Content Creation Studio Refresh Reveal

Before & After Makeover Reveal: My Cozy Cabin Home Office & Content Creation Studio Refresh including a wood-topped standing desk, ergonomic office chair, stylish storage for my photography gear and the perfect cozy shearling lounge chair from Article.

I work from home literally every day, but that hasn’t exactly meant my office was great. For many years, my office was a bit of a dumping ground for renovation project materials, content creation props for my freelance clients and so many stacks of random bits of paper. It got really overwhelming and just was not an inspiring space. So I decided to get serious about making the home office of my dreams. I was lucky enough to partner with both Select Blinds and Article on Instagram content for it, so today I wanted to share the details of the entire room and talk through my design choices.

Where to Buy Seeds: My Favorite Small Businesses to Support

Several packets of vegetable seeds from my favorite seed small businesses. Learn my favorite places to buy seeds here!

I’m a big advocate for shopping at small businesses as often as possible—afterall, I’m a small business owner myself! I especially like shopping at small businesses for garden seeds because these small businesses usually specialize in seeds grown in their local area. This means that seeds these businesses sell are more likely to produce and flourish in their particular climate. It’s so disappointing when you plan your garden and start your seeds indoors and nothing survives! Knowing where to buy seeds is essential to getting producing high quality and high yield plants.

Gardening small businesses also often carry heirloom seeds or specialty plants that you can’t find at big box stores. These gardening small businesses are essential to keeping heritage and rare seed varieties alive. The following are a few of my personal favorite small businesses to purchase seeds. If you’ve got other faves, leave a comment telling me!

How to Start Seeds Indoors (My Best Tips!)

Flower seedlings growing in soil blocks. Soil blocking is a seed starting technique that relies on planting seeds in cubes of soil rather than plastic cell trays or pots.

By March I’m itching to get out in the garden. Unfortunately in my 8B zone, it’s still too cold to put plants into the ground. Luckily, I manage to get my fix by learning how to start seeds indoors. By starting seeds indoors, I get a jump on growing healthy plants, I can have an earlier harvest for my vegetables and I can even do some succession planting to get the most out of a shorter growing season, among other benefits.

Starting seeds indoors doesn’t require a greenhouse either! All you need is a sunny window. Read along for a full guide and the best tips and tricks on how to start seeds indoors.

Our 2025 Cabin Renovation Goals + 2024 Recap

All the PNW cabin renovation goals we've set for 2025 + a recap of everything we accomplished last year (it was a lot!)

Don’t even get me started on asking where the hell 2024 went. Last year felt like the blink of an eye! But now it’s 2025 and I really need to get my butt in gear thinking about and planning my next batch of cabin renovations and projects. I share renovation goals annually—sometimes they pan out and sometimes I prefer to be outside or reading or generally not living in a construction site. So let’s dive into what I had hoped to accomplish last year, what actually got done and what I want to (try to) focus on in 2025!
