Ya’ll, around here we love Halloween décor. Well, any holiday décor really! I have to show you the most precious Halloween idea…bootiful chair covers. Remember when I told you I wasn’t feeling the love for all the wood in my dining room? I made some sweet, neutral chair covers to change up the look a bit….
We have a winner…our new neutral rug came in and we love it! You guys have been so sweet to share your thoughts and ideas on which rug would fit our space best! We chose the Vizier Area Jute Rug to replace the shedding, matted trampled on rug we had before. I am so grateful to…
I am about to say four words that are hard to let loose…I made a mistake. It’s true. When I picked the rug in our living room about four years ago I made a bad choice. I was all in love with it’s bog loopy texture and slightly modern feel. But this rug was all…
Today I’m sprucing up a wooden serving tray I got for a dollar at a local flea market. I’ve been eyeing all the gorgeous furniture I’ve been seeing gussied up with napkin print. Have you seen some? It looks as if some amazingly talented artist hand painted a beautiful pattern that has aged and worn…
***This post contains affiliate links I don’t have words for how much I love this fabric. Seriously. I am a sucker for black and white, anything houndstooth or damask, but then I found this… Faux Bois fabric. I love the scale of the pattern and the neutral colors. It makes my heart happy. This month I…
Earlier this week I introduced you to Miranda Lambert’s Ladysmith hotel. Today I’m back with a deeper peek into the space and the design that makes it tick. I suspect part of the reason I am draw to this place is the fact it’s a few steps removed from what you see in a regular…
Is your coffee table overrun by fifty thousand remote controls? Seriously…all this technology comes with a price. The price of cluttering up my coffee tables and wasting countless hours searching for the right remote that always seems to go AWOL at the most inopportune times. #firstworldproblems I know it’s a minor detail, but digging a…
Tips for choosing fabric online I have these two wing back chairs. I love them. I bought them at a garage sale over ten years ago. The have traveled across the country and spent time in a variety of rooms in our house. They are well loved and overly worn. My sweet dog called them…
Garage Turned Guest Cottage Makeover I’m not sure what made us decide to turn the garage into a guest house, but it was one of the best decisions we’ve made. With both sets of parents living out of town it was really meant to be a place for them to stay when they visit. It…
When we moved into this house my husband said, “I bet we never use this room.” He didn’t think the room would ever feel comfortable because it was big and seems kind of removed from the rest of our living spaces. He should know better. We’ve been married a while. I took that as a…
After a few comments from the peanut gallery I decided it was time to spruce up the mantel. I had been told it was “boring” compared to some other areas in the house. This was a true statement. I have hung the same thing over my mantel for years now. I absolutely love this genealogy…
Today I am bringing you through the den. We have moved a lot over the years. Like 9 times (if you count the two temporary stints in an apartment in between houses) in our almost 15 years of marriage! One thing I have always had on my radar since having children is two living areas….
You’ve heard me talk about my friend and fellow partner in crime decorating maven Stacie. (Check out our other makeover here and here) Well we partnered up again to do a home makeover for our long time friend Shellie. Shellie is a busy boy mom who wanted an overhaul of her main living space. She had…
Making our home comfortable for every one in my family is a major goal of mine. I strongly believe everyone should have a space that invites them, makes them feel connected and is totally their own. A safe haven at the end of the day. The kids seem to get their own space with ease….
Now that you have run out and searched the wild for treasures ( see the where we hunt post ) let’s look at a few ways to put those prizes, specifically horns, to use. It is important to know that deer horns don’t need to be banished to a man cave or some mountain hideaway. They are…
