  • As a renter, Amanda is always looking for budget-savvy and rental-friendly methods to make the space her own, whether it's a well-placed boho rug to cover up questionable stains from renters' past or battery-operated wall sconces as a workaround to rental restrictions.
  • She has a cherished container garden where she enjoys testing new container vegetables, herbs, and flower varieties.
  • She prioritizes natural and simplistic cleaning methods, which is why you'll find her pantry stocked with vinegar. When she's not using it as an ingredient in a homemade salad dressing, she's using it to establish the ideal vinegar/baking soda ratio to unclog a drain.
