Hi, I’m Danielle, and I’m so glad you’re here! This blog grew out of my Instagram, @the.house.of.archetypes, where I share snapshots of seasonal cooking, zone 5 gardening, simple DIY projects, and my adventures in decorating our Victorian farmhouse.

Here, I’ll be going a little deeper: sharing full recipes, project tutorials, and reflections on syncing everyday life with the seasons. Think cozy meals, modern folk–meets–Victorian decor, and small changes that make a home feel more magical.

If you’ve come over from Instagram, welcome! And if you’ve landed here first, feel free to join me there for the daily little moments!

Here’s to finding beauty in the everyday.
