My favorite things
My purchasing philosophy is to focus on quality over quantity, shop small when I can, and save for something I truly want more than just accumulate things. My hope in sharing is to encourage you to make mindful purchases as well as give helpful thoughts on the things I truly love!

Our Home Products
We've had this sofa for five years and still love it! The quality is incredible and I love how deep the cushions are.
This cabinet is perfect for holding all of my fabric. Its a great wood tone and I love it in my sewing space!
We love these dining chairs! They are sturdy, clean, and well made.
This rug is a great option for being mainly wool which is hard to find for this price! Being wool, it is easier to clean than synthetic fibers. It sheds a LOT at first but calms down the more it is in your space.
Shop my journal!
Our weekly ritual is to make beeswax candles for Sabbath and other celebrations. These are our favorites!
The perfect airy cotton gauze throw blanket.
Our cookware set has lasted us a few years already and still looks amazing for being a cream set! This set being non-toxic and non-stick makes it a favorite in our home.
I was a little skeptical how cream bakeware would hold up in the oven and so far, so clean!
This is the rug we have in our daughter's room. It is 100% wool and so beautiful in person.
We love this brand for Gelatin, Collagen, and Beef Liver. For the Gelatin, I use this to make homemade marshmallows and gummies!
I never knew I could love a humidifier so much! This has helped us with seasonal allergies, clear skin, and an overall healthy home! Use code COURTNEYWESTON10 for 10% off.
Bread Baking Tools
The Sourdough recipe I follow is from this bread book. I love the photography and stories throughout the book as well as how they help you adapt baking to your every day life!
A simple kitchen scale is necessary when baking...especially baking bread!
A dough whisk + plastic bench scraper are tools I use every time I bake. I like to use my hands but for mixing the dough at first, the dough whisk is super helpful!
The UFO-style bread lames are my favorite because I feel more in control of the blade when I am scoring designs into bread.
I use these baskets to proof my bread overnight which gives the sourdough more time to develop flavor.
Dutch ovens help trap in steam to give sourdough that wonderful crust. I recommend getting two so you can bake two loaves at a time.
Children
The cutest little scooter by Banwood
This is one of my most recommended children's "toys". A screen-free way to listen to stories and music.
These wooden magnetic blocks are a favorite!
If you are in the market for a car seat, get one that swivels. Trust me on this one! We've had this one for a few years and I can't imagine going back.
This kids digital camera is such a creative and fun way to see the world through your child's eyes!
We love all of Ellie Holcomb's books! They are beautifully illustrated and just filled with amazing stories of God's love.
The Stokke Tripp Trapp chair grows with your family and is a staple in our home. We've used it since day one since they also have a newborn attachment!
We love Artifact Uprising -- especially the board books!
This book is such a special way to connect before bedtime. We've loved going through this together and it is honestly so helpful for adults as well!
Wear & Other Favorites
Pregnany Favorites & Maternity Wear
I got this in two colors because it is so easy to throw on! Tip: In the beginning, if it feels too oversized, crisscross the straps in the back. You can uncross them as your bump grows!
This onesie may quite possibly be the most comfortable thing I've ever worn!
These maternity leggings are cost effective and so comfortable! No tight bands here and I really like the straight leg shape.
