Ginger Cowles

Ginger has always had a love for lifestyle content, especially home decor. As a tween, she obsessed over how she planned to style her future home, which—regrettably–was (gasp!) a different theme for every room. Thankfully, she’s evolved and fully expects that her taste in decor will continue to do so as well. Her home tends to mirror her wardrobe style—timeless, functional, and beautiful investment pieces layered with a few trendy items. 

Before joining The Spruce in July 2020, Ginger was the senior digital editor at (now-defunct) Family Circle, focused on moms with teenagers. She created the content strategy, managed the editorial calendar, and edited how-to content on organizing, essays written by moms, and much more. Prior to that, Ginger was a homepage editor at MSN.com, one of the largest news portals in the world, where she focused on planning coverage of tentpole events, content creation for every vertical, curating the best content from existing partners, and managing a team of editors and an army of freelance writers.

Ginger is the Senior Editor for The Spruce, The Spruce Pets, and The Spruce Crafts, where she leads news and trending content initiatives, including assigning and publishing stories. She created and oversees many of The Spruce's content franchises, such as "Girls Who Build," and "Big Little Spaces."
