I’m Megan ‘May’ Jeyifo, a twenty-something married with dog that loves black coffee, leaves, picking up new crafts and putting them down after 25% mastery has occurred, repurposing castoffs, the back porch, the Midwest and letters on real pages.

I just found your blog off ReadyMade and am loving it. I was born and raised in Milwaukee also. Your style and honesty is awesome (I can totally relate to your comment about putting things down after 25% mastery) I’ll be checking out the archives to see what I’ve missed so far!
only and ONLY because it looks so wonderful and beautiful and lively out there in those many pictures, I leave warm greetings and a BLACK COFFEE, especially made for you.
cheers
I found your blog through Apartment Therapy and spent the next hour reading old entries. I love your thrifty-ness, your dog’s name, and how you call your hubby “The Mister.” So cute. Great blog! You’ve inspired me to spray paint SOMETHING soon, lol.
Found your website by accident (check out the name), but I gotta say I love it and have subscribed…keep up the great work!

Hi Megan! Not sure how I found you, but I’m dying to find out where you got that cute little red filing cabinet in your home next to your desk. Is it vintage? Do you know the brand? Thanks so much!
Such a beautiful and inspiring blog. Will be sure to follow you here and on Ready Made

Congrats on freshly pressed!
What a beautiful blog! Beautiful photos and great posts of vintage stuff..
Perhaps this is the year our paths will cross in person? Hope so.
