Meet the Instagram and blog personality
behind Sarah Joy Blog.
- Personality Profile •
W
ith so many kind-hearted and talented people in the farmhouse
style community, we want to highlight some of the personalities
that turned this interior design group into a supportive family.
Meet Sarah Vandiver, a wife, mother of three kids and the face
behind the blog and Instagram account Sarah Joy Blog.American Farmhouse Style: How did you get involved in the farmhouse community?
Sarah: It kind of happened by accident a few years ago when I fi rst started sharing our
home on Instagram. I was sharing photos of our renovation projects and my design
ideas when I realized there are a whole lot of people who love the same thing I do. So I
kept sharing and it’s been so much fun!
AFS: How would you describe your home style?
Sarah: My style is always changing little by little, but lately I would say my style is cozy
boho farmhouse. I’m a huge fan of things like neutral décor, shiplap and white walls. But
I also love adding in more pops of color, patterns and textures into our home, and this
past year I’ve found myself reaching for those things more. I also love vintage décor, and
one of my favorite things to do is mix old and new pieces together.
AFS: What’s your favorite room in your house and why?
Sarah: Oh goodness, that’s a hard question! I would say our living room because it’s so
cozy, and it’s where we spend so much time as a family. Plus the reading nook, which is
in the living room, is also one of my favorite projects we’ve ever done. It also gets a lot of
sunshine, so it’s just a bright and happy space!
AFS: What are you doing when you’re not working on home décor?
Sarah: Chasing my three kiddos around and drinking copious amounts of coff ee.
AFS: What are you working on now?
Sarah: We are preparing to start on a little kitchen makeover! Specifi cally we are
replacing our old fl oor tile, which is very outdated. I’m also dreaming about painting
our cabinets. Hopefully we can get both of those projects done this summer. I’m also
working on something super exciting that will be launching in the fall!Sa ra h Joy
