Why the Joy Edit?
Hi friends!
Welcome to my blog — a cozy corner of the internet where I share the heart, hustle, and happy mess behind my home and garden projects, creative DIYs, and life as a millennial mom.
I started my Instagram page @being_injeanuity in 2023 during a season of transition. As a new mom navigating the beautiful but often overwhelming journey of motherhood, I found myself craving a sense of identity and creative space just for me. That’s when I came across the book Find Your Unicorn Space by Eve Rodsky, and it truly shifted something inside me. I realized that taking time to do things that bring me joy isn’t selfish—it’s life-giving. It makes me more grounded, more present, and a better parent.
What started as a creative outlet has grown into a community, and now this blog is an extension of that space—a place where I can share a bit more deeply and more thoroughly than I can in an Instagram caption or TikTok video.
Here’s what you can expect to find on the blog:
Home & Garden Projects
Detailed posts about what I’m doing around the house and in the garden—think organization hacks, seasonal decor refreshes, plant care routines, and simple but impactful garden upgrades. Whether you have a big backyard or just a few pots on a balcony, I hope to inspire you to make the most of your space.
Tips & Tricks for Cleaning and Organizing
I’ll be sharing real-life, mom-tested strategies to keep your space feeling calm, clean, and livable. These aren’t Pinterest-perfect solutions; they’re practical and sustainable routines that work in a busy home with kids.
Crafts & DIY How-Tos
If you’ve seen a quick reel or TikTok of a craft project on my page, you’ll find the full breakdown here—step-by-step instructions, supplies lists, and helpful tips. These projects are designed to be fun, budget-friendly, and fulfilling (and sometimes, kid-friendly too!).
Home & Garden Styling Tips
From how to style a shelf or set a seasonal table, to finding beauty in the everyday with fresh flowers or thrifted finds—I’ll walk you through the small touches that can bring warmth and personality to your home.
Everyday Life & Mom Moments
I’ll also be sharing a bit more personally here: lessons I’m learning, routines that are saving my sanity, and reflections on life, motherhood, and growth in this 4th decade of my life.
So whether you're here to pick up a new organizing trick, try a weekend DIY, get inspired to style your space, or just to feel a little more seen in your day-to-day life—I’m so glad you're here.
