About

Hi there! I’m Kristin, and Grace, Coffee, & Mascara is a meeting place for women to share about building a home that is Christ-centered, loving, and beautiful. We'll talk about cooking, cleaning, organizing, homeschooling, decorating, DIY projects, and lots more. As wives and mothers, our to-do lists can have a tendency to become crippling, carrying the potential to crush us before we’ve even finished brushing our teeth in the morning. I’ve found that I can’t do it on my own. Fueled first and foremost by grace and (much more secondarily) coffee and mascara, I strive daily to glorify God through my role as a wife and mother. Am I perfect in these roles? No way, not even close! That’s why my desire for this blog it to not only serve as an encouragement to other women who share my goal to glorify God through homemaking, but to be fortified by you as well.

Who am I? First and foremost, I am a child of God. Second, I am the very blessed wife to Dan, a wonderful husband and devoted daddy, who works hard as a Structural Engineer to provide for our family, allows himself to be a human jungle-gym for our boys, makes me laugh every day, and makes the fluffiest pancakes. Third, I am a homeschooling mother to three (soon to be four!) little boys, the oldest of which is eight.
