Dear Gardener,

Are You Ready to Embrace the Wild World of Bedhead Gardening and Life’s Beautiful Mess? Me, too! Let’s embark on this enchanting path together.

I’m Ashley, mom, wife, dog mom, RN, and lover of all things creative, adventurous, and messy. Welcome to Petals & Prints, a space where I alongside my husband will share our passions for bedhead gardening, DIY projects, outdoor fun, and discovering the best products for you, your home, your furry friends, and more. I hope you will follow along with us in this adventure.

Whether we’re at home working on a latest project, exploring the great outdoors, or finding ways to make sustainable choices, this blog is where we bring our shared passions together – and were so excited to have you here with us.

About Us

My husband joins me in envisioning, creating, and curating this space. When we’re not busy with work or family, you’ll find us gardening, hiking, kayaking, camping, biking, hanging out our favorite brewery or winery, or discovering unique finds at thrift and antique shops. We share a love for home improvement and DIY projects, and our dog Bandit is always at our side for it all.

We believe in savoring life’s simply joys, whether it’s tackling a new project, spending time outdoors, or finding the perfect product to us test and share with you.
