Happy New Year, Erin! Your blog is always a bright spot in my morning.
Endless thanks to you for writing in this space. I think yours if my very favorite of the blogs I read and also the most transformative. I’ve changed many things in my life based on the perspectives you’ve shared, right down the metal straw in my purse, so please, keep doing what you do because you do it so very well. All the best and Happy New year!
So happy I found your blog this fall – you continue to bring light to my day, even (especially) in the darkest of months (Nov).
Thank you – karen
One year ago, in December of 2015, I found myself abroad, on vacation with my family, and feeling disconcerted and dissatisfied with life. During their nap, I grabbed my ipad and started googling minimalism, simple living, and minimalist wardrobes, etc…, and your blog came up. Over the next few naps, i read as many articles as possible, and I have been reading since. Thank you for the lovely content, information, and inspiration. This year, with your inspiration, our family has gone zero waste. We have made so many life changes for the better. I have been particularly loving the political posts, as I also have pre-school-aged/toddler children and I am looking for ways to educate and empower them. Your beautiful blog provides me a second to breathe each day. A calm moment in our hectic days. Happy New Year!
A lovely year indeed! A joyful, renewing, refreshing and successful new year to you guys and the blog. <3
I love this list in part as it made me click through all your old posts, re-read some and catch up on the couple I’ve missed, and I have immediately felt more relaxed. Your blog is such a beautiful, calming and inspiring space! Good luck with your new arrival in January, and I look forward to following you through 2017! Happy New Year.
I’m grateful to have been a reader of your blog for another year 🙂 Thanks for the light you shine in your little corner of the internet!
Thank you so much for sharing this space with us, Erin! xoxoxoxo

Best wishes to you and your family in 2017! Your blog is my favorite, and I have shared your book with many friends and even my teenage daughters. Thank you for sharing your inspiration, simple aesthetic, and intelligence:)
