    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier August 22, 2025August 22, 2025

    After today, there’s just one Saturday left in August. I find myself holding tightly to these final weeks of summer—it’s easy to do in the glorious mountain weather. But tomorrow we’ll be heading back to the Phoenix heat for a short while, and I suspect that within 48 hours I’ll be longing for the first…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier August 16, 2025August 16, 2025

    Big Style in a Small Space: Our Cabin Bathroom Wallpaper Makeover

    ByMary Crozier August 12, 2025August 13, 2025

    Remember those wallpaper rolls I shared a peek of a few weeks ago? Well, it’s time to reveal where they ended up! Our tiny cabin bathroom — once drenched in a bold, deep red — has traded drama for calm with a fresh neutral-and-sage pattern. The difference is night and day, and I can’t wait…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier August 9, 2025August 9, 2025

    A bit of a late start with writing and posting today. The past few days have been consumed by research and presentations for three zoning hearings—more facts and formalities than the lovely, fun, and creative pursuits I usually enjoy. But the zoning cases went in our favor and I am now back up at our…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier August 2, 2025August 2, 2025

    Happy August! We are back in Phoenix for 8 days to attend a wedding, doctor’s appointments and a zoning hearing. When I left Pinetop it was a glorious 60 degrees and as I am writing this, it is 101 degrees in the Valley of the Sun. Thank you so much for joining me for my…
