My Story
Hey everyone!
Welcome to My Texas French Farmhouse
-a space where slow living meets real life, and beauty doesn’t require perfection.
I’m Rachel—homeschooling mom, planner-obsessed creator, antique-loving soul, and the kind of woman who believes calm is something you build on purpose (usually with coffee in hand and a to-do list nearby).
This blog was born from a love of old homes, French-inspired simplicity, and the rhythm of a life well lived—right here in Texas. I’m drawn to worn wood, handwritten plans, meaningful routines, and the kind of days that feel full without feeling frantic.
Here you’ll find:
Thoughtful homeschooling rhythms (the calm kind, not the Pinterest circus)
Planners designed to bring order without stealing joy
Home, faith, and family life—honest, evolving, and beautifully imperfect
A touch of farmhouse charm with a French soul and a Texas backbone
I don’t chase hustle culture. I believe in intentional days, slower mornings, and systems that serve you—not the other way around.
If you’re craving a life that feels peaceful, purposeful, and rooted—pull up a chair. You’re in the right place.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What makes a French farmhouse style different from other farmhouse decor?
It’s all about understated elegance, natural textures, and soft, muted colors. Think rustic wood, vintage touches, linen fabrics, and pieces that feel collected over time rather than bought all at once. It’s cozy but not cluttered.
3. Have you created planners or tools to help simplify daily life?
Yes! I design planners, academic bundles, and printable tools specifically to help families organize, prioritize, and simplify their days while keeping life joyful—not just busy.
2. How can I create a calm, organized homeschool day??
Start with intentional routines, realistic expectations, and a planner that works for your family. Break the day into manageable chunks, allow room for creativity, and don’t forget—some days “calm” just means surviving with coffee in hand.
4. Did you renovate your farmhouse yourself or hire help?
A little of both! I love hands-on projects, but I also know when to call in experts. Renovating is a mix of learning, experimenting, and knowing your limits—plus celebrating every small victory along the way.
