Upon seeing my kitchen, many people will exclaim that they love my open shelving, but that they could never have it in their kitchen. They say that they have too much tupperware or that their dishes just aren’t display-worthy. While I totally feel ya’ on the tupperware (that’s what my drawers are for!), I am a firm […]

Today I’m excited to share with you our upstairs living room design plan. When we moved into our house last September, the basement had a large finished room, complete with sparkly popcorn ceilings, wood paneling, and bare bulbs. Not exactly the most welcoming (or cute!) place to hang out. The past couple months we’ve been working […]

Soooo technically this is exterior inspiration, but the other day I caught myself strolling through the patio isles at Target, eyeing up the twinkle lights, caressing the water-proof pillows, and generally obsessing over EVERY SINGLE THING.

Happy Monday!!! Today I want to share with you how we updated our kitchen in just two weekends, using removable wallpaper and open shelving. When we moved in we knew that we’d want to do some work on our kitchen eventually, but it’s not quite in the budget for us to do a whole overhaul right […]

Now that Thanksgiving has passed, our bellies have been filled, and our wallets have been emptied (Black Friday, anyone??), we can officially move on from autumn to winter… and ultimately, to Christmas! And now that it’s officially Christmas season, it’s time to really hunker down and create cozy, inviting homes. I was recently encouraged by Douglas Elliman, […]

Good morning, friends! Today I am so thrilled to get to share our living room with you! If you didn’t get a chance to see the before photos, be sure and go back to look at those, since this space has gotten quite the punch of personality since we moved in. I would describe this room as […]

Hello there! Today I’m excited to share with you the before photos of our living room! Although the living room didn’t undergo as drastic of a change as the dining and kitchen (before here, after here), it certainly is one of my favorite spaces in the house and did receive quite a facelift! Things to […]
