Hey there! I’m Kristin, content creator behind Rebuilding Rosy, an intentional home and lifestyle blog.
Once upon a time tho, I was a fashion designer in Chicago, working tirelessly to get my clothing and jewelry line into magazines and boutiques all over the country. And I did it. But then came Violet… and then Gwen… and then Daphne, and eventually all the entrepreneurial things took a back seat. Like a lot of women out there, I lost myself in motherhood. Then, 2023 came with an ugly plot twist that changed everything I thought the future would look like.
I’m not gonna filter it… change and healing has been hard and scary. There’s so many days I struggle trying to keep everyone and everything afloat. But I’m finding that starting over has been refreshing and liberating, too. I’m wiping away the old, and bringing in all the new things. Sure, a new couch and new paint colors, but more importantly a new vision of myself, a new feeling of hope and a new and happier future for the girls and I. And you’ve got a front row seat to it all right here (and lots happens on the ‘Gram). From DIY projects and home decor, to health and wellness posts, mixed in with all things motherhood, travel and adventure and my infamous #KristinCantCook… there’s a lot going on!
All the projects and inspiration are coming together here to show my girls and any woman out there who needs it – when something is hard, you have the grit to keep going. When something goes wrong, you have the strength to make it right for you. When something isn’t right for you, you have the guts to get up and leave. And when life hands you lemons, you have the magic to turn them into chocolate cake and leave them wondering how you did it.
I’m so happy you’re here! Welcome to Rebuilding Rosy.
