Here I am with Lady Grantham. She is the perfect mix of sweet and sassy!

Welcome to Our Manor On Main!

My name is Bri, a small-town girl from the Midwest USA with big dreams and a passion for all things creative!

 When I’m not whipping up something delicious in the kitchen, you’ll find me diving into DIY projects and transforming spaces with my love for design and décor. My heart beats for antiques and thrifted treasures, which add a unique charm to my home.

 Right now, I’m on an exciting journey, rehabbing a 118-year-old commercial building to create our dream home right above my store. It’s a labor of love, and I can’t wait to share every step with you!

 My mission is to inspire you to chase your home dreams, no matter the size of your space. You don’t need a mansion or a large piece of farmland to create a cozy, self-sustaining life.

3 FUN FACTS ABOUT ME:

  • I am a space nerd
  • I absolutely LOVE Christmas
  • I am a dumpster diver (I find the BEST stuff in the trash!)
  • I have started grinding my own flour and absolutely love how it’s elevated my from-scratch baking. If you’re interested in baking with freshly milled grains, you can check out the exact one I use here.

 Join me as I share tips, tricks, and a whole lot of inspiration. Let’s embark on this adventure together and make our homes a reflection of our dreams!
