About Jane at Home: A Home Decor and Interior Design Blog

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.  Jane at Home is a home decor blog dedicated to sharing creative decorating ideas, interior design inspiration, the latest home trends, and much more.

This blog began over ten years ago as a creative outlet — a way to share my current design projects, favorite decor finds, and our home updates. 

Today, this website has grown into a home blog sharing decorating ideas and inspiration, current design styles and trends, home decor and furniture finds, and everything in between. 

As a wife, mom, blogger, and designer with over 30 years’ experience, I love sharing inspiration from the world of interior design and decor to help you create a home you love, and I hope you’ll find all sorts of helpful ideas and information in my posts. 

While time has passed, my intention remains the same:  to bring beauty to home and life.  Thank you so much for being here! xo Jane
