Wheat & Gold Thanksgiving Tablescape

By Bre

Welcome back to Day 4 !! I'm so glad you guys are enjoying this just as much as I am, and we are one day closer to the Grand Finale tomorrow, with 13 of my friends!! If you are just joining in, you can catch up here with Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3. Just like before, I start with a cleared off table. A clean slate. Todays Tablescape theme is all about wheat! I paired it with mixed metals, and warm metallic hues to compliment the wheats natural color.I started first by completely covering my table with a cream table cloth. Then started with my center first. I placed a tarnished silver serving platter in the middle, with my largest white pitcher in the middle of that and filled it with wheat ...

Cinderella Pumpkin Thanksgiving Table

By Bre

I'm back with Day 3 of my week long of Thanksgiving Tablescapes. If you are just stopping by for the first time today, or catching up, click the days to see Day 1 and Day 2. I love creating tablescpaes, it's one of my favorite things to do, and what inspired me to do a full week of them, so enjoy Day 3.I start by completely clearing off my table, to have a fresh look, and perspective to design.Once my table is cleared I start by layering fabric on top. I still like to see my wooden table top, so I fold a simple white tablecloth in half and center it on my table so that the wood is still exposed on both ends. Then to add texture and depth I add a 2nd layer. This year it's burlap, last ... Read More about Cinderella Pumpkin Thanksgiving Table

Birch Tree Thanksgiving Tablescape

By Bre

Happy Tuesday!! I'm back with Day 2 of my week long of Thanksgiving Tablescapes. If you missed yesterdays simple, elegant table you can check that out here. Todays table is a bit more rustic, with birch tree stumps and nature inspired pieces.Above you will see my empty table, a blank canvas. First thing I did was bunch up some burlap in the middle of the table to create a nest.Then I staggered birch tree stumps throughout the burlap to create lots of layers and different heights.Next I added all my white pumpkins and candles. I stacked them on different stumps to emphasize the different heights of the stumps.I brought in the white elements first because that's what I had the most of, ...

Bold Accent Wall

By Bre

A little while back I shared my craving for bold dark accent wall. In the middle of my chaos, sometimes you just have to do something different, walk away from all the current business you are swamped in and do something fresh. I showed a sneak peak of my updated home office space yesterday on Instagram, and I'm here to give you all the details today!The last time you saw my home office space it looked like this. I think though in order to have a work space that is inspiring to you, it has to reflect what is currently inspiring you. Just because it's an office is no reason it should lack in design, and not be pleasing to the eye. In fact,it may inspire you to want to come in, be productive, ... Read More about Bold Accent Wall

What’s Underfoot (New Rug Pads)

By Bre

*I have partnered with Rug Pad Corner for this post, however all opinions are my own.* Hi Friends! I'm stopping in today to share with you some fabulous new products we have in our home. And after seeing the quality, and feeling the effects for a few weeks now, I'm honestly kicking myself for not doing something about it sooner. You may already know this, but we live in an old Farmhouse, an 1846 Farmhouse. We have original hardwood floors, that were professionally refinished just before we moved in, and I always get compliments on how shiny and beautiful they are, sadly since we didn't do them or hire it out, I have no idea what they used. But they are gorgeous. ... Read More about What’s Underfoot (New Rug Pads)

Coordinating Outfits for Family Photos

By Bre

It's that time of year again. You know getting that fabulous family picture for those darn holiday cards! Is it me or is fall like national take your family picture time. Whether you hire someone to take your photos, or tackle that task yourself, I've been there and I've done both, and regardless of who is behind the camera, you want the ones in front of the camera looking their best. Gone are the days of jeans with a white button down shirt, or kakis with a black shirt. Todays family photos strive for a more relaxed casual feel. More candid instead of planned. And while we all long for a magazine ad outcome (totally laughing out loud) accomplishing that relaxed look can be more difficult ... Read More about Coordinating Outfits for Family Photos

Between You & Me Sign, and a Discount Code

By Bre

As you all saw yesterday in my Fall Home Tour, we have a lovely new sign from  Between You & Me. I am just smitten with it! Truly I am, it fits our space so well, and my personal style, and is such a great way to reflect a personal mission statement. Proverbs 24:3 isn't my life verse per say, but it was one I hold near and dear to my heart given the passion that I have.The detail in Tara's signs is just perfect. It's not too roughed up, but distressed just right, and even with neutral colors, it blends beautifully with our neutral color scheme. I mentioned yesterday that I had a hard time deciding, and I wasn't kidding. So today I wanted to share with you a few of her other ... Read More about Between You & Me Sign, and a Discount Code

Fall Home Tour {2014}

By Bre

I am so excited to be joining up with a fabulous group of ladies this week to share our Fall Home Tours with you! Ashley over at Cherished Bliss put together this lovely Tour, so be sure to stop by and say hello.Fall has officially hit! The temps are starting to drop, the ground is covered with leaves, and autumns beautiful colors surround us. Inside I put away all my summer-y things and replace them with soft fuzzy textures and deeper colors. With cooler temps, and cold rainy days, I love to curl up inside with a cozy blanket and a warm beverage in my mug. So I layer our house to be well equipped for fall nesting. I always like to swap things out when the seasons change, and pictures ... Read More about Fall Home Tour {2014}
