Well, hey there! It’s nice to meet you. My name is Kelly and I’m known as the Tidy Brown Wren.
Thanks for stopping by. I love to share what I’ve learned about having an organized home, a healthy body, and a joyful heart.
An organized home:
I’m an Organizing Coach and former Home Stager. I love to help people make the most of their homes without spending a lot of money. I’m always finding new ways to organize and tidy up.
My hubby and I live on 4 acres in south eastern Virginia. We affectionately call our home Wren Acres. We share the space with 2 old goats (Gus-gus and Bubba) and a bunch of laying hens. Nothing makes us happier than having a house and yard full of family and friends to hang out with.
I love spending time in the greenhouse Hubs built for me with upcycled windows and other random supplies. It is my goal, every summer, to grow as much of our produce as I can.
A healthy body:
Our kitchen is a gathering place for everyone who visits. If you stand still long enough, you’ll probably get handed a spoon to help with food prep. One of my favorite hobbies is feeding people.
The past several years have been a rough road, physically, for me. I’ve had a kidney transplant and more recently, a run-in with a nasty cancer. I’m cancer free right now and try my best to keep my body as healthy as possible.
A joyful heart:
In my studio, I sew and create items for my shop. I enjoy remaking thrifted finds into something new and beautiful. I have an Open House a few times a year where local folks can come and shop for treasures that I’ve found and refashioned.
The trials and adventures of my life have brought me closer to God and He has brought a joy into my life that words can barely explain. I’m waiting to see what He has planned for me next!
I hope you’ll follow along as I share my latest projects here on the blog.
