At Home with the Hortons

Picture
A big hello 👋🏼 to you friend! I’m Heidi, wife to that good looking fella Matt and a dog mum. I’m a business woman, a creative dreamer and a keen gardener. We live in an 'almost tiny house' (more on that below) which we built as a result of doing a huge audit of our lifestyle. After spending most of our twenties chasing the conventional ideals of bigger/more/faster is better - one day we woke up sick of trying to keep up with the joneses and decided to make a change. Since then we haven’t looked back. We’re now chasing fun things like financial freedom, shorter work weeks, getting back to basics, self sufficiency and slower intentional living.

to SLOW DOWN
Busy is not a badge of honour. We seem to spend much of our lives rushing around, constantly in a state of doing & ticking things off lists. Let's celebrate balance, glorify rest & make time to just be present.

to DITCH THE EXCESS
Material things do not make us more successful, happier, popular or important.
It is the people and experiences in our lives that we treasure the most, not the material things.
Picture
to GAIN FINANCIAL FREEDOM
We are bombarded daily with marketing that tells us to buy the next new, bigger, better thing. And to pay for it with money we don't actually have yet! We’ve decided we’d rather the freedom of less, so we can do more.

to LEAVE A LIGHTER FOOTPRINT
This beautiful world we live in should be cherished & honoured, not depleted and used as a dumping ground.
In less than the space of 100 years it seems we’ve lost touch with living sustainably.

to LIVE HEALTHIER LIVES
​We’re bringing many of our lifestyle choices back to basics. From the products we use in our home, to changing our dietary habits. We've realised so much of what sits on the supermarket shelves isn't real food.
