Hi, I’m Fern.

Welcome to Minimalist Momma; or as I almost named this blog, ‘Just a small town girl, learning to simplify life and get rid of most of my crap…’ Minimalist Momma seemed more appropriate of a name.

With four children (three girls + one boy), two businesses, a busy husband, a couple side jobs, and the additional complexities that come with being an ADHD Mom, life can be tiring and finding ways to simplify gets more important every day.

We live in a small town on the West Coast that we are so in love with. We are DIYers, home renovations doers and interior design has always been an interest of mine. We are also mid-way through building our dream home (Guide soon to come!).

Because we have so *much* happening in our lives, I’m becoming ever more conscious of the need to find quiet moments and peaceful spaces. Easier said than done in a busy home with 4 kids but none the less… I am an eternal optimist and just a genuine lover of life so each day I try my best to tackle some kind of self or home improvement on my journey to minimalism.

Thanks for joining.
