Chunky Knit Throw Blanket

11/30/2016 By Bre

Hi Friends!! Thank you so so much for all your kind words about our Christmas tour yesterday!!! They truly mean the world to me. I’ve been stuck serving jury duty this week, so I haven’t had a chance to reply to each one, but have truly loved reading each and every one of them! Many of you commented on the lovely blue touches I carried throughout our decor, and I have to say I was a little nervous at first, especially trying to find just the right shade. But I’m so glad I stuck with it, and love the added pop of color it brings. I’ll be sharing details about our christmas decor over the next couple weeks, but I wanted to share with you about this amazing new chunky knit throw blanket you saw in our living room!

DIY Silver Tray Wall

11/28/2016 By Bre

Many of you asked about how I hung the silver trays on my dining room wall from my Christmas Tablescape post, so today I’m going to share with you how I created it! I’ve seen a few variations of this done before, and always loved the look of it. Vintage, yet elegant, and full of character. Creating a gallery wall with plates is much like creating a gallery wall with photos.

Christmas Wish List

11/25/2016 By Bre

Well, it’s that time of year. Where we frantically try to think of something to buy for all of our beloved ones. It truly is a special moment when we know we’ve nailed it in the gifting department, but sometimes we can feel a bit apprehensive, because we just aren’t sure what to buy. Never mind when the question gets turned on us! It’s like all of a sudden that running list of things we have been eye-balling instantly POOF’s from our memory bank, and we have a deer in headlights look …

2016 Christmas Decor Inspiration

11/21/2016 By Bre

Hi Friends! I wanted to share some of my thoughts and ideas for my christmas decor this year. I know you usually see just the after photos, but I wanted to share some of my thought process and inspiration with you. Sometimes just sharing the journey to how we get to the pretty spaces is more meaningful than the finished product itself. I tend to stick to a mostly neutral color palette to begin with. And while I love that, and I loved our Christmas decor last year, at the end of the day it felt like it was missing something. I know sounds weird right?

Seasons of Life

11/18/2016 By Bre

Can we chat for a minute. Just friend to friend?! Life is hard. There I said it. I know in the world of social media, we are filled to the brim with everyone else’s highlight reel, it can make our own lives feel – well uneventful. Like if we aren’t trying the hippest restaurant in town, or the latest beauty regiment, or have picture perfect children at every moment, who never have outbursts, and always look put together, and don’t shout out in the grocery store “SOMEONE FARTED”….

Not too hot, Not too cold, but just Right!

11/17/2016 By Bre

Yep that’s right! That is exactly how I would describe our new curtains in our living room. Not too hot, too cold, but just right! In other words, not too dark, not too light, but just right! You see I love all white, truly I do, but sometimes it feels just a little to blan for me after awhile. And while throw pillows can certainly add their pop of color, I really just wanted something that would cause a bit more of a change.

Mini Bundt Cakes

11/10/2016 By Bre

On my tablescape I used mini bundt cakes to create a unique and individual place setting. So today I’m going to share with you how I created them. These mini bundt cakes are so easy to make, it’s really the pans and the embellishments that make them look so delectable. I have come to the conclusion that mini-cakes are like puppies or kittens, and any other kind of baby animal. Their cuteness factor lies in their small size, and thus makes them simple irresistible!
