Mustard Seed Faith and Frio River Dreams

We moved to Concan, Texas in 2018, with a lot of hope, a little run-down property, and big Frio River dream. Leaving the chaos of city life back in San Jose, California, we loaded up our moving van, strapped in our furbabies, and set sail for the Frio River. Jake and...

I feel like his expression is saying “hey queen, I see you. I see your power, your strength, and I’m not afraid of it.”

Big changes coming to The Louise Cottage. Giving her a little desert grunge facelift.

Story time. This was the first group to stay in The Greenhouse with the new mural painted by @freesouthjersey. I’m so excited to see people taking pictures with her super fun mural! But let me explain why these pictures are extra special.

A million years ago when I was in college, I taught an after school photography class to high school kids. It was such a fun group, and they were all soooo talented. @bobbiebarbie was one of those amazing kids (she’s now a grown up because I’m a thousand years old). I just realized that the Barbie who stayed with us this week while I was gone for my birthday was THE BARBIE! One of my former students from the photography class. She and @stephersdee came to stay with us for a little rest and relaxation in the hill country.

So my new favorite thing is having a property full of artists! Walking outside and seeing @willow_waters_illustration pop up painting en plein air is an absolute joy.
.

.

I wish we could have artists running around 24/7, especially ones as talented as she is.
.

Who else thinks she should come back and host a watercolor painting workshop!?!? I know I’d be the first to sign up!

@freesouthjersey is currently painting The Greenhouse and I cannot wait to see how it turns out. I love seeing artists do their thing. There’s something seeing the creative process in action.

This is @justgoogleitdoodles our first artist in residence of 2021. She’s a dancer turned illustrator, and a bundle of creativity.

She was one of the first people to respond to my call to collaborate, and I immediately said yes. I love the playfulness and whimsy of her designs. It totally matched the playfulness and whimsy here at The Inn Between.

Who else is bursting at the seams to see what magic she conjured up?!

“I want The Inn Between to be welcoming, accessi

“I want The Inn Between to be welcoming, accessible, funky, eclectic, relatable, magical, and inspiring. I don’t want it to be pretentious, perfectly designed, soullessly cool, and soullessly instagrammable.”
.

I just found these notes from 2019, right after we finished up our 2nd summer in Concan. I’m constantly redefining, and reimagining who we are, but these wants/don’t wants still ring true.
.
.
.
.
I need spaces that welcome me in like a giant hug. I can’t stand spaces that are cold, distant, and pretentiously cool. I want warmth. Love. Hand touched spaces. Perfectly imperfect and full of heart.
.
.
.
.
The energy of a space is beyond important to me. And my biggest goal is that you can feel the love we’ve poured into our little property.
.
.
.
Your vacation is important, it’s a chance to create magical memories with the people you love. So it’s important to us to create the space for you to be able to do that.
.
.
.
.
We don’t believe in perfect vacations, we will never be able to give you that. Perfection doesn’t exist (at least not in my scatterbrained artist world). But we can give you countless hours of thought, love, and heart, accumulated into a funky little inn. An inn-between space where you can disconnect from life, and reconnect with the people you love.
.
.
.
.
We hope to see you this year! I’d really love to know if any of this rings true to you? Are you sensitive to the energy of the spaces you enter, or am i just crazy?!

The Louise cottage is about to be unrecognizable!

The Louise cottage is about to be unrecognizable! We start the remodel next week. Can’t wait to give this little cottage some new life! Say goodbye to those osb walls (finally!!!).
.
.
.
.
We’re starting off 2021 with a bang. A remodel, and so so so so many other projects! We already have 8 artists lined up for our artist residency program, and are quickly adding more.
.
.
.
.
I’m calling 2021 our year of reaping (aka I’m doing all the fun collabs!!!). 2018 was our year of sowing, we bought our property and started the work. 2019 was growing. 2020 was refining. And 2021 we’re finally going to do some reaping!
.
.
.

Who is ready to reap with us?! What fun things do you have planned for this year?
