About

Hey, Neighbors!

I’m dani ferretti

and this is my guide to beautiful living. I believe that our homes impact our lives deeply, so I’ve created this online space to share tips for turning your house into a home that is healthy, beautiful and thriving.

My husband, Brad, and I secretly married in 2019, packed up our home in Austin and embarked on an extended honeymoon. We didn’t share the news with our families until we returned! We can’t wait to celebrate some day (post-pandemic.) Shortly after, the three of us (including our sweet chocolate lab Soko) moved back home to South Florida where we found our first home! We’ll spend the next few years fixing it up. Join me in our journey to design our best home and our best life.

My core values for beautiful living

I make every effort to purchase the highest quality, longest-lasting pieces I can afford for most items in our homes. I avoid trends and try to purchase things I believe I will love and cherish for years to come. I value sustainability and eco-friendly options over single-use disposables. I continually work to choose low or non-toxic items. I make space for imperfections and for pieces that tell the story of our lives. Nothing is too precious. Everything is meant to be lived in. And the most important thing in our home? The people. Always.

Not sure where to start?

This post [here] takes you through every room of our previous home in Austin. It was a builder-grade rental so hopefully, if you’re in a similar situation, you’ll be inspired to make the most of your home now, even if it isn’t your forever home.

This category [here] is where you’ll find lots of design tips and tricks.

And this post [here] is the first post from our new home!
