Hello Friends!! Today I’m sharing all the details for our first floor guest room makeover. For our guest room, I’m going for a dark, moody feel, with a slight hint of preppy english countryside. I’m sharing my mood board design for this room today along with all the sources, and my thought process for coming up with the design! Come and see ~
I know choosing window treatments can be hard. Trust me I get it, there are so many options to consider. What style fabric to choose, and at what length. And how high and how wide do I hang my curtain rods. Do I use curtain rings with eyelets or clips? Do you hang curtains with a valance or no valance? And what about shades? Do you see what I mean? The options are endless, but there are a few things that I like to ask myself first to help me narrow down my selection. Come and see how I hang curtains, and our new oatmeal linen drapes in the living room.
ally the day! I have been hinting that I was working on finishing our fall decor for the last few weeks, and I’ll be honest, there were times I wasn’t really sure if it was going to be done or not, lol! I was so excited to decorate our new home for fall, because this is our first fall in this home. But I think a lot of that excitement was coming from a place of wanting to nest. The air is cooler, the sunlight streaming a little more amber and gold, and I wanted to do was make a giant pot of soup, and bring out all my chunky knit throw blankets, anyone else? Speaking of which, have you tried this soup HERE? It’s delicious, I’m making it tonight, but that’s besides the point. I really just wanted our home to feel warm and cozy. I will be honest, I found it a little difficult to photograph this fall home tour, because this was the first time I was officially photographing this house, I’m still getting to know her. And what lighting works right, and what angels make her shine. I almost scratched this whole post because I wasn’t totally fond of the photos I took, but I reminded myself that done is better than perfect. And since the last time I showed you this house was when we moved in, I wanted to share some of the progress we’ve made. Consider this home tour like a “first date” if you will, of me getting to know our new home through my camera lens.
so much fun. If you were able to join me live than you know, or catch the replay, I loved being able to connect with you and share a fun tutorial in this way, and have the chance to answer your questions in real time! In case you missed the last one, I shared how I make a pumpkin centerpiece using my favorite blue pumpkins, and fresh flowers. Are you ready to know what I will be sharing in this weeks Live Workshop Event?!
about the most when I start to share how I decorated our home for Christmas, but I think they are great for all winter long.
I think it’s no secret that I love setting the table. Oh if my grandma could hear me know, because I used to roll my eyes every time she would ask me to when I was a kid – sorry gram! Perhaps if only she worded in such a way that had me believing I was creating a tablescape I would have been more interested back then. But you know what, I think tablescape can feel like a fancy word sometimes, when in reality I’m just over here setting the table, trying to remember which side of the plates the forks go on – it’s the left by the way 🙂 This tablescape I created around my cinderella pumpkin in yesterdays blog post just stemmed from a place of setting the table, but with a little more attention to detail. So today I’m breaking down the details, and the sources, for my cinderella pumpkin tablescape.
Hello Friends! eautiful fall foliage. Fall seemed to arrive a little late for us this year, which I’m told was from our very wet summer, and even though the leaves started changing a little bit later than normal, they are in peak show off mode now! Our temps are still mildly warm, as if summer is teasing us, not wanting to leave just yet, but I know it will be too cold to sit outside soon enough. So to celebrate fall in all its’ glory, I wanted to share a fall tablescape I created around my beautiful cinderella pumpkin centerpiece I recently made. Let’s Gather ~
Hello Friends!! Well I’d like to say I’ve finished decorating for fall already. I’m close, almost done, I just have a few small areas to wrap up. But it’s got me thinking, unlike decorating for the holidays, fall for me is really about celebrating the season changing. It’s not that I need more, or to go all out in my decor, but rather just a few simple changes. So in case you need some encouragement and just a little inspiration, I’ve rounded up a few simple fall decorating ideas to share today.
Friends, I’m so excited!! I have an upcoming Book Signing Event!! I’m so excited for the chance to get to hug and meet some of you in real life! There is nothing like getting together in person, especially to celebrate, and this is going to be such a fun event! I so hope that you can make it!
