Hospitality is in my DNA. I founded Home with a Twist, a daughter’s twist on her mother’s traditions, in memory of my mother to celebrate her life and the gifts she shared with me. Mother loved to celebrate life’s occasions – big and small.She taught me how to prepare fabulous food, entertain guests with style and design a traditional home with a pop of color and a splash of animal print. Share my fondness of blending Mother’s mid-century style with a modern spin.
Mrs. Twist Takes on Instagram
It’s not about matching pillows or perfectly styled shelves—it’s the little things that whisper “you belong here.”
A linen napkin passed down from my mother. A candy jar that’s always full. A stack of postcards from friends. A Mahjong mat waiting for its first game. A bottle of bubbly chilling in the fridge. A cat, or three, on my lap.
The layers of laughter, comfort, and memories in between.
Sentimental living isn’t curated. It’s collected. 💛🩷💚💙🤍🧡🩵❤️
What’s something in your home that tells your story?
✨ The Closet That Broke the Internet ✨
They came for the Hallelujah Chorus… they stayed for the vintage champagne coupes and heirloom napkins. What started as a peek inside my dish closet has become a cult favorite on Instagram—shared thousands of times and loved by fellow sentimentalists who believe every party starts with a story.
I call it my Party Pantry—a cozy closet filled with my sentimental keepsakes - china, linens, trays, glassware, candles, silver, and keepsakes that have graced decades of dinner parties. It’s not about perfection—it’s about intention. It’s hospitality wrapped in nostalgia and shelved with love.
I couldn`t have done this project without the help from professional organizer @theocdbachelorette. I think it might her most favorite project, too.
💫 If you`re new here, welcome to @homewithatwist, where we celebrate hosting with heart, mixing the vintage with the meaningful, and making every guest feel like family.
Drop a 🥂 if you`re part of the Party Pantry fan club!

Daisies and denim—what a pair. 🌻👖
This vintage tablescape was inspired by the prairie where I grew up. I snipped sunflowers and garden blooms, layered denim with eyelet, and let the colors do the storytelling.
My parents’ farm was filled with wildflowers and sunsets that lingered long after the day’s work was done. This table? It’s my tribute to that time—to the beauty of simplicity, the sweetness of home, and the sentimental threads that tie it all together.
Do you decorate with memories? I’d love to know what inspires your table. 💛

Ever dreamed of spending an entire month wandering through blueberry fields, savoring buttery lobster rolls, and chasing lighthouse sunsets along the coast?
I’m packing my “Maine Girl” bag and heading to my favorite place for The Merry Month of Maine! I managed an inn here for two magical seasons, and this year I’m going back just for fun — and I want you to come along.
From picnics by the sea to small-town strolls and everything in between, I`ll share every charming moment. And guess what? If you comment MAINE, I’ll mail you a postcard straight from Vacationland! 💙✨
So, who’s ready to breathe in the salty air, taste the wild blueberries, and live the slow, sweet Maine life with me? Let’s make August unforgettable together.
