OBSESSED WITH DOCUMENTING MY FAMILY'S LITTLE MOMENTS ON PRETTY PAGES. IF YOU'RE READY TO FINALLY CLEAN UP YOUR CAMERA ROLL + PRINT YOUR FAVORITE FAMILY MEMORIES THAT HAVE BEEN SITTING ON YOUR PHONE FOR YEARS, YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

Here I share scrapbooking layouts, cozy rituals, and journaling prompts to help you find calm, clarity, and connection in the chaos of motherhood. Grab a notebook, pour yourself a glass of your favorite comfort drink and let’s dream, plan, and create together. If you’re new here, just know there’s no pressure. No need for perfection. Just space to breathe, reflect, and create a little less overwhelm one page at a time.

MANIFESTO

At the heart of it all, I’m just a girl who fell madly in love with stories; the ones tucked inside books the & ones unfolding in real life.

I’m a scrapbooker, designer, reader, and a busy mama who believes in the magic of the ordinary. I love taking photos of my kids, of everyday moments through the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it seasons. But for the longest time, those memories only lived on my phone; saved… and loved, but inevitably forgotten until I scrolled by them again.

I craved something tangible; more permanent. Something… slower. Something that felt like the comfort of your favorite books. You know, the ones with the well-worn pages.

Ink & Reverie exists to help you find the magic and beauty in your every day life, and to fill pages with stories only you can tell. You don’t need a perfect system, a free weekend, or a spotless craft room. You just need a starting point: a prompt, a project, a page begging to be filled.

I hope this place finds you when you’re ready to slow down, put pen to paper, and finally tell the stories you don’t want to lose. And I hope this is the place you return to when life gets loud and chaotic.

Because here, we believe in creating through the chaos. In messy handwriting and dog-eared pages. In inked-stained fingers, coffee on desks, and stories told while life hums in the background.

I encourage you to find the space this year to gently step away from the scroll, and go back to your stories. Back to the kind of life that feels grounding, comforting… like coming home to yourself. Let go of the loud, fast-paced hustle, and tune in to the quiet whisper that pulls at your heart when you finally sit still enough to hear it.

Because one day, these quiet stories you tell are the moments that will matter most. They’ll tell the story of a life well lived, and of the people you loved deeply. They’ll remind you that the ordinary days were anything but boring, and that magic doesn’t come from a conjured-up source in another realm. It lives right here, created within you. Just waiting to be noticed. Reveled in. And remembered long after those moments have passed.

So, while you’re here, I invite you to grab your favorite cozy drink and stay awhile. Welcome to Ink & Reverie. Your story matters here, so please… pick up the pen to write it all down.
