a home decor blog, making it pretty one space at a time
I’ve always loved the look of using a vanity as a night stand. In this house, I fully embraced it because there is no other place for it in the room. The corner was tight so I needed something tiny. I searched online, but when I came up empty handed, I headed to the thrift store. [Read more…]

The tropical theme for our rental has given me the perfect excuse to decorate with lots of greenery. It’s definitely making it feel like our own little island paradise! I like keeping a watering container in each room to help me remember to water my little plant friends. Because, heaven forbid I kill anymore of them!
Side note, I heard two things about plants lately that I love. Number one- if you add a little Miracle Grow to your watering can every week it’ll help keep your plants happy. Number two- plants are good for you because they clean out your air. Plus, having living things around is always a good idea.

I am so excited to show you this “marble” party I threw for my friends. Here’s the thing, sometime you just need a night with your girlfriends after your kids go to sleep. I figured we could make some marble canvas art after dinner and have a fun night of painting and eating and chatting. If every party I went to could include a craft, I’d honestly be in heaven 😉 .

Somehow my little guy is now three! Time is so bittersweet as a mom. One one hand, time flies- wasn’t he just born?! On the other, every day feels similar and that he’ll always be home with me- playing at the park, racing cars, and being my little buddy. Sometimes I forget that he’ll actually grow up and I’m sure trying to cherish all of the time we get to play together. [Read more…]
