Hi! I’m Beth, and I’m a staff writer at Real Homes. I specialize in writing about small spaces (think teeny tiny apartments and dorm rooms), cleaning hacks (I'm low-key #CleanTok obsessed), and organizing. I also have an eye for pretty things (think: quirky wall prints, scalloped edge furniture, and decadent-looking tableware) and love nothing more than a bargain buy. I’m forever searching for items that will add style to my rather sterile rental property. I'm always on the lookout for eye-catching and on-trend pieces of decor that will add personality without damaging the paintwork, or old pieces of furniture that I can breathe new life into by restoring. When I’m not writing, you’ll usually find me baking brownies, camped out at my favorite coffee house with my Kindle, testing out new beauty products to write about, or exploring with my fiancé and our dog.
