You may have noticed a few changes around Honeysuckle Life recently. Some of the categories have disappeared, while new ones have taken their place. Images are more decor and style focused and a newsletter was launched. There are still recipes and DIY projects,…

I’ll be on hiatus until July 19th. The next two weeks will be spent on an island. With monkeys. And a team of girls. Sadly, most of that will be without my hubby. Miss me!
