Announcing the Bless’er House Budget Decorating Community

I’ve been sitting on a little secret—and it’s finally time to share it. You may have already noticed a fresh look around here: the blog has a new design that makes everything easier to navigate and more enjoyable to read. I hope you love the updated layout as much as I do. Our house tours, complete with sources and paint colors, are updated as well, so you can find the details you need in one place.

Even more exciting than the new site design is the launch of the Bless’er House Budget Decorating Community. Today marks the official start of a dedicated space where readers who subscribe to the Bless’er House email list can connect, share, and get practical decorating help—without a luxury budget required. If you’re already a subscriber, check your email for the invitation sent today.

For a long time, I’ve shared projects and ideas from our own home and answered decorating questions via Instagram, Facebook, and email. While I love hearing from you, I wanted to create a space where I can more actively help you with decorating projects in your own homes—where real conversation, feedback, and encouragement can happen every day.

To make that possible, I created a private Facebook group just for Bless’er House email subscribers. The group is a place to post photos of your rooms, ask specific decorating questions, and receive suggestions that are achievable on a reasonable budget. This community is designed for practical, budget-friendly decorating—no need to demo walls or splurge on custom pieces to make progress.

• Tips for painting and refreshing thrifted furniture
• Guidance on selecting paint colors that work with your light and furniture
• Practical advice for furniture arrangement and flow
• Ideas to increase function while keeping rooms attractive
• Where to find the best decor deals and coupons
• DIY-friendly projects and tutorials for all skill levels

We’ll share inspiration, troubleshooting help, and affordable solutions so you can complete projects you actually enjoy. Each month I’ll choose one room shared by a group member and create a free room design plan for that space—another way the community delivers hands-on help and guidance.

Whether you’re working on a single corner, tackling a whole room, or just looking for ideas to refresh your home on a budget, this community is meant to support you. It’s a friendly, encouraging place where members exchange practical decorating tips, share sources for affordable decor, and celebrate progress at every stage.

If you’re already subscribed to the Bless’er House emails, look for the group invitation in your inbox and follow the link to join. If you’re not yet on the list and would like to be part of the community, you can sign up here: Subscribe to join the Bless’er House community.

If you have friends who love decorating on a budget, please invite them to subscribe so they can join the group too. The community will be more useful and fun as more people share their projects, questions, and creative solutions.

Thanks for being part of this journey—your encouragement has meant so much. I can’t wait to see the rooms you’re working on and to cheer you on as you make them more beautiful and functional, one affordable update at a time. See you in the group!
