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

12/15/2023 By Bre

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

12/08/2023 By Bre

One of my favorite parts of decorating for Christmas is giving myself permission to let things be imperfect. Not every strand of garland needs to be even, and not every detail needs to match. Hanging our Christmas garland asymmetrically was a small shift, but it made such a big difference—adding movement, softness, and a sense of ease that feels just right for our home during the holidays.

Fall Mantel | 2023

11/05/2023 By Bre

Today I’m sharing how I decorated our fireplace mantel for fall! Truth be told, from the moment we finished our fireplace makeover, I have been dying to pull out my garlands from their storage bins, and decorate it for Christmas. But I’m practicing some self control, and am embracing the fall season by choosing to decorate my mantel for fall and not skip straight ahead to Christmas. I took a note from the colors I used in my Thanksgiving table this year to create this natural look using foraged branches with berries, a few faux stems, and of course mini white pumpkins! I love how this look came together, and am so glad I decided not to skip over decorating our mantel for fall this year.

Primary Bedroom Before + Design Plan

11/02/2023 By Bre

Today I am sharing the official “before” of our primary bedroom. Even though you have seen glimpse’s of our primary bedroom on the blog before, I’m designating an entire blog post to show you the before, and share a bit of the design plan that I have for this space. I’ve been slowly working in our primary bedroom over this past year (eh’em I said sloooooowly right), as it was one of that spaces I wanted to tackle when I shared my Goals post back in the beginning of the year. It’s so exciting to see some progress, which also means we are finally getting some curtains hung! Can you believe it, after 2 1/2 years we are finally going to hang curtains in our bedroom!

Fall Home Tour | 2023

10/22/2023 By Bre

Fall is in the air friend, and with that I begin to turn my focus from being outside in the garden to back in doors. Fall inside our home means preparing for winter. Extra blankets get put back on beds that were tucked away from summers warmer months, and chunky knit throw blankets get tucked in baskets so they are at arms reach. I swap out my throw pillow covers in the living room with hues that feel more like fall, and candles get swapped out too from scents island margarita to harvest apple spice. I like to focus on all the cozy senses of fall, since for me it is all about nesting, and making our home feel comfortable as we prepare for the colder months ahead spent indoors.
