My story
A little about me.
Home ideas, favorite finds, and everyday life in Sonoma County.

Welcome to my home
Hello, I’m Catherine.
I live in Sonoma County, in California’s Wine Country. I like a home that feels comfortable and personal, with things collected over time.
Collected Comfort Living is where I share what I’m doing in my own home, things I’ve found and liked, and little ideas that you might want to try, too.
I’m often moving things around. A bowl goes somewhere new, a lamp moves to another table, or flowers get a second turn after they’ve dried. I call it “Free Decorating,” and I do it all the time.
I also love finding useful things that look good and making guests feel comfortable when they visit. Those are the kinds of things you’ll find here. Just ideas from my home that I hope you’ll enjoy in yours.
What guides me
Intentional
Nothing added just to fill space.
Authentic
Real homes. Real life.
Timeless
Pieces that outlive trends.
Warm
Every room should feel like home.
Layered
Texture and character over ornament.
