a home decor blog, making it pretty one space at a time
Thanks to Overstock for teaming up with me on this post!
Every year I am super interested to hear what Pantone chooses as the color of the year. Pantone’s pick definitely influences trends and can be a good forecaster of what is to come. This year they choose Ultra Violet as the 2018 color of the year and I’ll be honest, it seems a little out of left field. Violet is such a bold and overbearing color that I wasn’t so sure.

A few weeks ago I shared with you my bathroom reveal. After 6 long weeks of working on it, that beautiful room was done and perfect! Well, not so much. I’m going to share a few mistakes I made on the room in the hopes that you can avoid them while you renovate. [Read more…]
One question I got a TON from my bathroom renovation was “where did you get that bath tray?” And guess what? I made it! It was so easy too- anyone can make one and I’ll show you how to below. I am convinced that every bath lover needs one. This tray elevates bath time- you have a place for a drink, a show, a book. It is heaven! [Read more…]
Well, hello! Last week I shared the reveal of my sister’s guest room. I am thrilled with how it came together and your response has meant the world to me!
There were a few things that I still wanted to share from the guest room, so let’s get started! [Read more…]
Hello! A few of my blogging friends got together to share our holiday decor with you! Welcome if you are visiting from Summer’s blog!
A few weeks ago, I put up my Christmas decorations in my living room. It took all day and I was tiiiiired after it was done. So I packed everything up and decided having one room decorated was good enough.
I think sometimes creativity takes time to build up. I’ve been itching for a fun project, and decided to use the leftover decor I have for the entry.

A few weeks ago I shared with you for my sister’s guest room. As a quick recap, Kate is my big sister and she lives nearby me with her adorable family. She has a new home with one empty room- I decided to give her a super fun gift for Christmas, a furnished room that is the perfect place for her lucky guests to relax!
Just so you guys can see how far we came, this was right after she moved in and this was the “extra box” room. [Read more…]
I’m the nosiest person and I love, LOVE when people break down how much a big project cost them to complete. Our bathroom (see the full reveal here) was pretty much a gut job (besides the tub). I thought it would be interesting to add up what everything cost. And let’s be honest, as I’m adding up these numbers for you, it’ll be the first time I see them too. [Read more…]
I love my living room, but there are definitely some problem areas. Take, for example, this area-

Over the past few months I have been slowly redoing my living room- buying items when I fell in love with them and slowly layering in pieces when it made sense. I thought I would be done at the beginning of November and that I’d share with you reveal photos then. But life happens.
I am finally done with the living room and wanted to share with you where we are at today with the Christmas decorations all up! P.s. keep reading to the bottom for a fun giveaway!
First off, I ordered a brass and marble end table and this is what arrived:
Its gorgeous! But I really wanted the grey marble that was shown in the photo on the website (the green looked terrible with the rest of my decor). The company didn’t want me to return it and refunded me fully, so I figured I’d make it work. [Read more…]
Hello! I have been busy over here refreshing our front porch and entry. These are areas that weren’t so bad, but with a few tweaks, I’m loving them more than ever. Outside, on our front porch, we have the cutest little stoop. We live in a condo and the back corner is all ours. It desperately needed one small update.
One of the glass panels broke on the exterior light. It wasn’t a big deal until a bird lived there all last spring. That sweet bird made a nest in there, pooped in there, and would fly out and scare you to death every time we came or left the house. The bird has long since left, but her mess remained:
