You may have seen these gorgeous blooms on my Instagram this week. They were my Valentine flowers from Jesse (awww.. but where’s the chocolate?) Well the lilies only lasted a week but those pink carnations have been going strong. I trimmed them down and added them to (what else?) a mason jar for that rustic flare. I […]
Agate Geode Stones for the Home
Want to know my current obsession? Agate geodes used in interior design. Apparently I’m not the only one because it seems like every store has a new collection coming out that features some kind of geode stone, print, or motif. Love it! Want to know what’s even cooler? Real agate geodes are made from bubbles […]
DIY Blue and Lime Ikat Side Table
As you probably know by now, I am a DIY nut and I can’t pass up a good $5 side table, and this ugg-o was no exception. When I was scouring the isles of my favorite flea market (sorry that’s top secret info) I came across this beat up (and when I say beat up, […]
Threshold’s Fall Collection: Home Finds Under $50
I’m always impressed with Target’s “Threshold” brand and how their home items look like designer items but are at a reasonable price point. Threshold’s Fall Collection certainly did not disappoint with its accents of golds mixed with neutral tones and natural textures. Here are a few of my favorite finds from this Fall’s Threshold collection that […]
Current Obsession: the Chesterfield Sofa
I have been needing a new sofa in my life for years now. I’m still using the miniature sectional I fit in my little 1-bedroom apartment from my college days.. it was $400 and became a lumpy turd its first month of ownership. As an interior designer I know the sofa is one of the most […]
Urban Outfitters Goodies + Free Shipping
I used to work at Anthropologie which is owned by the same company as Urban Outfitters. I used to overlook Urban Outfitters because I thought it was only for cool hipsters living in their studio apartments in Brooklyn. Which yes, their target audience may be that demographic but you can actually find some really fun […]
DIY Gray and White French Dresser
As I’ve stated in the past, I’m crazy about all things French. From French Fashion to French Decor, those Frenchies just get it right. I’ve been trying to bring a little essence of France to each area of my home and my latest adventure has been to create a shabby chic inspired dresser for our […]
10 min. Floating Shelves Wall Art
This is one of my easiest DIY tutorials yet it’s one of the pieces in my house that everyone always stops to admire and make comments on. The whole project should only take about 10 minutes to complete and will cost around $40 for both shelves and 10 pictures. I bought the floating shelves at IKEA […]
Kelly Green Side Table Redo
Awhile back I was at one of my favorite thrift stores and found a gem of a piece. An old beat up side table that needed some serious TLC. I didn’t want to become committed yet, seeing as it was the first piece I saw but when I saw the price tag of $10 I […]
Friday Favorites: June 6th
I haven’t done a “Friday Favorites” post in awhile (actually I haven’t blogged in awhile.. big life changes.. updates to come) but these are some of my favorite posts because every week I see so much great stuff that it’s nice for me to narrow down what has been the best of the best for […]
