A Cozy Corner for the Thoughtfully Made Life

Welcome to Homemade Betty—a place where warm bread, handmade gifts, and slow Sundays are always in season. Here, we celebrate the joy of doing things the homemade way, whether that’s kneading dough, sewing something beautiful, or simplifying the chaos of daily life with a good old-fashioned routine.

This isn’t about perfection or Pinterest-worthy homes. It’s about the heart. It’s about creating a space that feels like you—a little messy, always meaningful, and full of love.

The Heart Behind the Name

How I Became a “Homemade Betty”

Years ago, I didn’t know the first thing about baking from scratch or what a sewing machine could do. My go-to dinner? Something frozen or picked up on the way home. But over time, especially as I became a mom, I felt a quiet pull to slow down, be more intentional, and make our home a place of comfort, not just function.

My daughter loves cooking with me. She will always ask me to make something with her. I started small: a loaf of bread, some homemade popsicles, plant a vegetable… And little by little, this homemade life began to unfold. Not because I had it all together, but because I found joy in learning, trying, and failing forward with my little ones.

That’s what Homemade Betty is about: the beauty of becoming, and the journey of learning and exploring.

Real-Life Homemaking, Without the Pressure

This space is here to support and inspire your journey, no matter where you are.

And maybe most importantly, encouragement. Because you don’t need to do everything, you just need to start somewhere.
