    Pre-Spring Refresh

    This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Hobby Lobby for Hobby Lobby. All opinions are 100% mine. I picked up some beautiful home décor at Hobby Lobby for a pre-spring refresh. I think I saw something for nearly every style of decorating. I used this large wild asparagus greenery pick and interweaved cosmos in it to create a beautiful floral centerpiece. To complete the look I added these white washed wood chains to the coffee table for a simple Pre-Spring look. The next area I wanted to refresh was the guest bath. The wall was blank and I found the perfect metal and wood shelf from…

    Christmas Porch Décor!

    Today I have partnered with Walmart to share fun and festive holiday porch decorating ideas with you! The Holiday Time collection this year from Walmart is absolutely amazing. Walmart has so many colors and styles to choose from, I know you will find something beautiful to decorate your home this holiday season! I used two of the 9 ft garlands that have pretty pinecones attached with different greens. The garlands are a great buy at this price and they are super versatile. They also have a metal loop on one end to help the garland stay put wherever they are hung. I am not only using them on my porch…

    DIY Modern Mudroom Makeover

    Today I am sharing how I created a functional and beautiful modern mudroom for my family. The mudroom is definitely a place that gets used daily. It is also such a catch all space; we set down our personal items there, place items that we need to take with us when we leave the house, take of dirty clothes, etc all in this space. It took me months to figure out the best layout and the best functionality for the mudroom but it was well worth the wait(and the work)! Laundry and Mudroom Space Before Originally the washer and dryer were on this wall but it stuck out into the…

    High End Home Décor Dupes & DIYs

    I love seeing other people’s homes and how they decorate them via things like Pinterest, Instagram, going to a parade of homes event, etc. It’s a great way to brainstorm for new ideas/maybe see how a particular item looks in someone’s home instead of just in a catalog or in a store. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has gotten sticker shock after finding out the prices for some of the items! I remember one time I saw a gorgeous table and when I looked it up it cost as much as all the furniture in my entire house! The good news, however, is that sometimes you can…

    Interior finishes

    I’m so excited to share some of the process we went through in choosing finishes for our home and I will also show you some of the final selections! Choosing finishes sounds so fun and easy but it isn’t always so. I’m definitely part of the group of people who find the whole process quite hard at times. For this house; I had to go into a design meeting, speak with a designer, look around, get rough quotes on product (and some of those quotes took a few days to be returned), and then make some final selections all in half a day! I even had a plan going in…
