About Blackthorn & Willow

Hi, I'm April!

I created this space because I believe that everyday life can be both meaningful and beautiful - even in the little things. Over the years, I've found joy in crafting projects that let my creativity flow, exploring new recipes that bring people together, and discovering ways to make a house feel more like a home. My faith has also been a steady anchor, guiding me through seasons of growth, challenge, and grace.

Here on Blackthorn & Willow, you'll find pieces of my journey woven into everything I share - from Bible study reflections to cozy homemaking tips, from favorite travel memories to hands-on DIY projects. I hope that this space encourages you to slow down, find joy in the everyday, and maybe even discover a few new passions of your own.

When I'm not writing or creating, you'll probably find me exploring thrift shops or planning my next trip with my family.

Thank you for stopping by - I'm so glad we get to share this journey together!
