I’m Shannon, a full-time working mom living in Washington, DC with my husband and three young kids. I started this blog as a creative outlet to share stories, design ideas, and the small ways I’m trying to make life slightly cooler, one corner at a time.

 

This blog was born out of a conversation with my husband in the car where we were discussing how I could do this project, at around 85% instead of my usual 110%, to avoid burn out and keep it fun. Hence, the name, slighly cooler. 

 

What this blog isn’t: It’s not a DIY tutorial hub, a life advice column, or a roadmap to perfection. It’s just a place where I share tiny wins (and some not-so-wins) that make everyday life feel a little better—or at least a little less uncool. 

 

If you’re into small changes, maybe the occasional big one, and the idea of finding beauty and calm in the chaos, you’re in the right place. I’ll link products when I can and I’d love to chat over on Instagram; link’s on the page. Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet.
