We’ve been in Florida a few weeks and are finally getting out to explore! Last week, we drove to Wynwood which is well known for it’s street murals. For a girl who loves a pretty backdrop, this is such a fun spot! We brought my new bike and strolled the streets.ย

Master Bedroom Plans and New Bed

In December, I started planning the decor for our Florida home and I have been really looking forward to sharing it with you!!! Above is the moodboard I came up with. The brass bed is definitely the star of the show! I was planning tropical wallpaper, but since we switched rooms with Don, that has been nixed until I can find a better place for it. [Read more…]
Don’s Bookcase and DIY Bookends

Hello there! I am on a quest to decorate our new house- room by room. When we first arrived, I set Don’s books neatly in his room and then continued to unpack the house. Within minutes (I’m not exaggerating at all) every book was spread across the room. It was a mess! So I went on the hunt for a bookcase- because who can live that?! Lol!ย [Read more…]
Office Reveal
Moving to our house in Florida, one of my first priorities was getting my desk set-up (since I work from home and all). The weeks heading up to our move were a little hectic because we were packing everything up and I was finding new furniture for our beach house. [Read more…]

Tips for Surviving a Road Trip with a Toddler
When we were planning our move from Utah to Florida we were a little nervous about the car ride. After all, it was 40 hours of driving! With a toddler, two dogs, and limited space (as our car was jam packed with everything we owned) we wondered how we’d survive the whole thing!
We came up with a game plan, and for the most part it worked nicely! I dare say that we enjoyed the trip- gasp! Here are my 5 tips for surviving a road trip with a toddler. [Read more…]
Home Ideas from Magnolia Market
Last week, on our way from Utah to Florida, we stopped by Magnolia Market in Waco, Texas. You know, Joanna and Chip Gaines’ (from Fixer Upper) shop. Before going, I had a friend on Facebook tell me that its super busy at all times and not too enjoyable because there are people and lines for everything everywhere.
silos

I was prepared to make it as fun as possible, but my expectations were low. Spoiler alert, I loved it! We went right when it opened on a weekday and it wasn’t crowded at all. I almost cried seeing the silos. For me, that little spot symbolized people dreaming big and making their wishes happen. That really resonates with me!

How to Let Go of your Stuff
After my last post where I talked about donating at least half of my stuff in preparation for our move, I got so many questions and emails about how I did it. I guess that January is a good time to talk about decluttering since everyone is in the organizing mood.
To be honest though, I definitely didn’t organize my stuff. It was already organized- everything was in nice bins and labeled, but I had so many things that I just didn’t need or use anymore. What I needed was to downsize my stuff and moving was the perfect excuse to do it!
mind shift
See, we only could keep what would fit in the back of our car to bring to Florida. The rest of the stuff needed to be stored. And to store something for 5 months meant that I had to love it. I couldn’t hold on to stuff that didn’t suit me for my life right now. So decluttering was all about having a mind shift from “do I have room for this?” to “do I love this and need this?”

How to Update your Decor with Dye

In August, we got a new sofa (which we LOVE), but it didn’t look great with our existing black end table. The table is high quality with excellent storage so I wasn’t ready to get rid of it. I thought maybe I could cover it and do a little DIY (killing two birds with one stone- such a gross saying, but you know what I mean).
