Meet the Blogger
I’m Claire, a 29-year-old wife and stay-at-home mom. Since 2015 (when I was a sophomore in college!) I’ve been sharing bits and pieces of my life online. Just to Claireify is my current little corner of the Internet.
I’m an introvert who loves a tidy home, a night in with a good book, and all things pink. I live in suburban Minnesota–the land of six-month winters–but I daydream about moving to a temperate place near the ocean. I’ve read every French chic lifestyle book that exists and would love to self-publish my own one day. Welcome to my world!
Why Do I Blog?
I originally created Just to Claireify to share my personal life with faraway friends and family. After graduating from college in 2017, we moved to California (and then back to Minnesota a year later). Whilst lonely in a new and temporary place, I shared my travel adventures around the US and details of our wedding planning and big day.
The blog took a different turn after we bought our first house in 2019 and I was pregnant. I picked up photography and started sharing recipes, photos, and related healthy living tips. You can find my repository of original gluten-free recipes here (that often cater to other food intolerances or preferences as well).
At the moment, I’m a a mom of four and a full-time stay-at-home mom. I write about homemaking, household management, healthy living and feminine inspiration. Why do I keep blogging when I have almost no free time? Because I love to write. It’s the pre-kids part of myself that I hold onto in the chaos, and I hope to turn it into my career once my kids are older and more independent.
Let’s Keep in Touch
I always love getting to know my readers, so please don’t hesitate to contact me. And you can find me on Instagram as @justtoclaireifyblog for more fun! I follow back–unless you’re a spam account who wants me to sell cheap jewelry (why are there so many of those lately?).
