Favorite Fall Stems

10/10/2024 By Bre

Let’s talk fall stems. You know those beautiful faux branches you see in some of your favorite homes on the internet. They add an instant fall feeling to any room you add them too, but sometimes finding the right ones can be difficult. You are not wrong in feeling this way. I too have a hard time finding ones that I love, but when I do, they make it into my cart faster than you can say “fall”. Today I’m sharing some tips in what I look for when shopping for fall stems, and of course some of my favorites, so that you can use them again year after year.

Summer for us means spending most of our time outdoors, but that doesn’t stop me from making a few simple seasonal changes to the decor around our home. Summer brings to mind the feeling of keeping things light and breezy. Laid back days, windows open (when there is no humidity), and that warm summer breeze blowing through. I put together this simple summer vignette showcasing some of my favorite things about summer.

Primary Bedroom Refresh

05/20/2024 By Bre

Last fall I shared a design plan post for I wanted to finish our primary bedroom refresh. I had started working on our bedroom last year, slowly making changes, but also being intentional with my choices as I carefully made decisions as to how I wanted our primary bedroom to feel. I’m calling this portion of the refresh “Phase 1”, as I still have much I would like to do to add character and details to our bedroom. And while I haven’t crossed everything off my list just yet, I wanted to share the progress with you so far. So here is phase one completed in our primary bedroom refresh.

Spring Styled Hutch

04/30/2024 By Bre

The hutch in our dining room is one of my favorite places to add a few seasonal touches marking the beginning of a new season. Every Christmas it’s the first spot I decorate adding miniature houses and tiny bottle brush trees. After the holidays are over, I remove anything that feels too “christmas-y”, I wipe everything down and display my favorite serving pieces I’ve collected over the years. Then once spring arrives I’m ready to add some pops of greenery back into my hutch. It always adds a breath of fresh air back into our dining room, so today I’m sharing how I styled our hutch for spring.

Christmas Village Styled Hutch

Our hutch in our dining room is one of the first spots I like to decorate for Christmas. Similar to the open shelves that were in the kitchen of our previous home, I love decorating our hutch with tiny bottle brush trees, filling bowls with ornaments, and tucking in winter greenery throughout for the holiday season. This year I decided to add in my tiny white ceramic houses to create a Christmas village look. I love this look for the holidays, and can’t wait for you to see it!

Living Room Christmas Tree

12/12/2023 By Bre

Christmas is almost here! I love to decorate our home for the holidays, and one of my favorite sites is the soft glow of white lights from our Christmas tree. When we moved into our home a few years ago, I had been searching and searching for a realistic faux Christmas tree that felt nice and full, since our new living room has a bit more floor space then our previous living room had. This will be our third year with this faux Christmas tree in our living room, and it’s still just as beautiful as the day we got it. So today I’m sharing all the details.

Asymmetrical Christmas Garland

I am so excited to share this years Christmas Mantel with you, because this is the first year I get to decorate our newly renovated fireplace for the holidays. If you are new here, earlier this year we gave our brick fireplace a makeover. It was quite the extensive process, and we thought through every aspect of what this makeover would look like. You can read all about it HERE, but today is the day I have been waiting for ever since we finished our fireplace makeover. I brought my favorite garland out of storage, and I couldn’t wait to hang it back up.
