Hi, I’m Danielle. This little corner of the internet grew out of my Instagram, @the.house.of.archetypes, where I share bits of seasonal cooking, gardening in zone 5, simple DIYs, and my adventures making a Victorian farmhouse feel like home.

I’m not an expert, just someone who loves to learn new skills and find small ways to make things feel a little more magical. If you’re also drawn to cozy meals, resourceful projects, or the glow of late-afternoon light on a good day, then you’re in the right place.

Think of this blog as an invitation to learn, experiment, and notice beauty right alongside me.
