Simply Grit & Grace Home

Creating cozy spaces filled with light, warmth, and grace

I am so glad you’re here. My name is Vanessa Gordon-Grundy, please follow along as I share my passion for home decor and interior design. My goal is to inspire others to design spaces that allow their story to be told, and one simple belief: your home doesn’t have to be big, fancy, or perfect to be beautiful.

Through this blog, I’ll share tips, ideas, and inspiration to help you transform your home into a space that truly reflects who you are. Let’s embrace the beauty of simple, cozy design and make every corner of your home a place you love.

This isn’t just about how your home looks, it’s about how it feels.

For me, home has always been so much more than a place to live, it’s where light, warmth, and comfort come together and create something truly special. My love for interior design and home decor began long before I even realized it. As a little girl, I love spending time with my grandmothers, taking in all the ways their homes felt cozy, welcoming, and full of love.

My Yia Yia had a gift for creating beauty in the simplest of ways. Every item in her home had a purpose, a story, and a place. She cared deeply for the things she owned, and worked so hard for them all. She arranged her home with intention, love, and care to make others feel included and at ease. Her home was more than beautifully decorated, it was safe. It was a space that radiated grace, warmth, and belonging.

As I grew older, I found myself living in many different kinds of spaces, from a small one bedroom apartments to my own home. No matter where I was, I discovered that I could create beauty with what I had. Through many life circumstances, challenges, transitions, and new beginnings, I learned that home is not about perfection, it’s about heart. It is about the grit to keep going, persevere, and the grace to find the simple moments and joy along the way.

That’s how Simply Grit and Grace Home was born, from a love of creating spaces that bring, joy, light, peace, and love to others. My hope is inspire you to see the beauty all around you, exactly right where you are. Trusting yourself to create a home you love and that truly feels like you! Because no matter the size of your space, or the stage of your life, you can make it beautiful with grit and grace.
