Arlyn’s Love Letter to Latin American Designers & Creatives (Well…Sort Of)
Since January 20, 2025—though really, since the morning of November 6, 2024—I’ve felt a heavy weight on my heart as someone of Latino heritage. I’ve always felt like an American. I was born in Florida and with the exception of about a year and a half where my family lived in Puerto Rico when I…

100 Classic Girl Names | Young House Love
It’s safe to say that we love traditional baby names (aka classic names or old-fashioned names). We named both of our kids after our grandparents – one on J’s side and one on mine. I recently heard names like that for baby girls being called “old lady names.” Not sure how I feel about that…
