Holiday Decor Favorites!

November 8, 2021

Village houses are old from Pottery barn (similar here or here), gold lanterns, similar fire log holder, vintage candlesticks

We usually don’t bring out the Christmas decor till after Thanksgiving, but I did want to share my favorites a little early to allow time for shipping! My kids look forward to getting out the familiar items each year, and it makes me remember how exciting it was as a child when my mom got out the Christmas boxes.

Thanksgiving Table Decor Ideas

November 2, 2021

I know it’s easy to want to skip to Christmas everything, but I do love Thanksgiving. It will be down to the wire if our kitchen will be in use by then. (Crossing my fingers.) I enjoy styling the table every year – especially the challenge of working with what you already have. Sharing a few past Thanksgiving table spreads today, as well as a round up of Thanksgiving table decor ideas and pieces.

Build Your Own Fall Capsule Wardrobe

October 22, 2021

Remember when I used to blog about style? That was a great creative outlet for a while, but truth be told…being in front of the camera makes me really uncomfortable so I don’t miss it! I also started to move towards more simple capsule wardrobes to avoid excess. My sister Gianna and I scoured the internet to find options you can mix and match to build your own fall capsule.

October 20, 2021

We are on week 3 in our kitchen renovation timeline, and so far we are on schedule thanks to our cabinet company. They have done an incredible job working efficiently and communicating well. Today I wanted to share a look at the progress of the unpainted cabinetry as well as a first look at all of the hardware and lighting elements we are incorporating. I admit I got a little decision fatigue toward the end of this design process, and it took me a while to decide on the final details!

Simple Home Updates: Candles & Cozy Throws Round Up

October 5, 2021

It’s easy to think about updating your home in large scale ways, but I think there. are some simple things that can really make you feel excited about a space. It doesn’t take much to make a room feel warm and welcoming. Maybe it’s a stack of your old favorite magazine or books on the table, cozy pillows, or a good blanket to curl up in. I personally love cracking a window after deep cleaning my room, and lighting a few candles. As temps are finally cooling here in TN, I was in the mood to hunt down some good seasonal scented candles and chunky cozy throws. We rounded up some really good ones below!

Kitchen Renovation Timeline + Layout

October 5, 2021

Well, after a year of planning, scheming, and dreaming….the kitchen renovation officially commences today. In many ways I am so glad we didn’t rush this process, and took the time to think through every detail. Since the kitchen is a place we spend so much time in, we wanted to make sure we really get it right. I admit when we started the design, I was naive to the amount of time and decisions involved in a gut renovation. Today I wanted to share a break down of what the timeline looks like because it all has to flow like a row of dominoes.
