Happy New Year!! It’s hard to believe that today starts YEAR 15 of my ARTFOODHOME.COM blog! Crazy how quickly the years fly by (and to think I wrote it daily for over 10 years!) – these days I try to write 4 posts/week, sometimes it ends up only being 3. What I hope to share with you this year…

2026 Goals

🖼️ ART: I really want to get back to featuring more artists! It’s an enormously time consuming endeavor to get the OK from an artist for a feature (even though I don’t need a thing but the OK to use an image and bio). Many are wary because, well… who does this for free right? That would be me. If you’re an artist who would like to be featured (or re-featured!) please contact me!

🥗 FOOD: I hope to try even more recipes this year. I love experimenting with different twists on recipes + good ole classics that we all enjoy!

🏡 HOME+: I love sharing things I love, items I run across that make life easier, travel – favorite places, things, books, photos, Charleston photos especially! But also house plans, which are a favorite of yours. If you’re an architect or house designer with stock plans – contact me if you would like to be featured!

Let me know anything else you would like to see in the upcoming year!

Happy New Year – may it be healthy and happy!

🎉 Until next time… ✨ Take a moment to be grateful for at least one thing today – TODAY will be a good day, you’ve got this!
