Patio refresh ideas

Category: Home Decor

We are inching closer to starting the renovation of the outside of our home. The main project is going to be having our patios and walkways removed and redone, as well as some landscaping. I decided to get going on finding new furniture and decor for the space because we want to be able to enjoy it once its done. Our current table and chairs we’ve had for over 10 years and its just time for an update. One thing I have noticed over the years is that this can be quite time consuming as well as a little frustrating since so many pieces sell out very fast during the season. Since I was doing all the research I thought I would share all my fun finds. Even if you aren’t planning a big change it may just provide a little inspo if you want to change a few…

April favorites

Category: Lifestyle

Last months favorites were a mix of home and fashion pieces. Which happen to be two of my favorite things to share! Both of our bathroom vanities were very popular and for good reason. They both have a great look at an affordable price point. All the details for our master bathroom can be found here. We are still putting the finishing touches on the kids bathroom but we are almost there. At one point I considered ordering a custom vanity and then I found this one! It looks amazing and was a fraction of what it would have cost us. Another piece from the kids bathroom was a favorite as well. These gold sconces add such a pretty touch to the space. There’s so many ways you could use these around your home. The most loved fashion pieces include the braided slides which I have been wearing non stop!…

Category: Lifestyle

Lots of fun things have been happening around here lately! Theres been a lot of progress on the bathroom renovation and we are nearing the final details. We still have to get our shower door ordered and installed but otherwise its just all the fun finishing details. We are planning to hang some plants, get some art work and I have already grabbed some fun towels and accessories for the kids. I can’t wait to show you how it all comes together! Birthday night out Last weekend Jesse and I had a night out to go celebrate my birthday. We stayed at a new local hotel The Daxton and had the best time! Before we went to dinner I debated on wearing this dress. Even though I loved it I kept worrying about being over dressed or feeling like it was too much. I took a poll on my…

Christmas Home Tour

Category: Home Decor

Christmas decorating will always be one of my favorite things. There’s just something magical that the lights and greenery bring to a space. I switched up a few things and tried some new this year so lets take a Christmas home tour! Christmas in the kitchen Lets start in my favorite spot, the kitchen. I always love to do the garland above the window with some lights. This year I switched out to a new garland from the past couple years. You can see the other one in my Holiday Decor Tips and Ideas. I also added some whimsical elements like the Christmas Cookie book, gingerbread house and candy canes. The kids love having the candy canes around! Dining Room Since finishing this accent wall in our dining room was still fairly recent I wasn’t prepared to hang anything directly on it yet haha. Adding a pencil tree was…

Winter outings with the family

Category: Lifestyle

This weekend we spent the entire time out and about enjoying some fun holiday festivities together. We’ve been really trying to make the most of the holiday season and enjoy family time as much as possible. *This is a sponsored post in partnership with Chevrolet, all opinions are my own Winter outings We tried to come up with a few winter outings we could do while still being outside and staying safe. It was really nice having the Chevy Tahoe for longer rides and we had plenty of space. There are so many fun and festive activities available right now so here are just a few we did. Drive In movie One big stop we made was heading to a drive in movie at Lakeside Mall. They had 4 different movies to choose from and a couple time slots so it was easy to find one…

Hot Chocolate Bar and a fun printable

Category: Home Decor

We recently added a little bar cart to our dining space to create some fun set ups while staying at home this season. Once it was put together the kids made me promise the first thing we would do is make a hot chocolate bar. Done! Hot Chocolate Bar Setup I tried to keep it fairly simple and whimsical when putting it together. First I filled in the space with some decor like mini trees, lights, and a cake stand to vary the height a little. Next I added all the hot chocolate components including hot chocolate mix in a cute jar, candy canes and some toppings (mini marshmallows, crushed candy canes, and mini chocolate chips). I always just use what I have around the house as far as serving pieces. I usually just use mason jars or small bowls or ramekins like the ones here. Lastly you want…

DIY wood accent wall

Category: Home Decor

DIY Wood Accent Wall We have been in our house for over 3 years now and this large wall in our dining room has been a spot I could never decide what to do with. Everything I came up with or was going to try just never seemed like the right fit. When we decided to overhaul our dining space and thought about doing wood accent wall I knew it was finally going to be something we loved! The design Before we began we had to figure out what kind of design we wanted on the wall. Jesse wanted a very geometric pattern while I just wanted basic vertical pieces. We knew we had to figure out a comprise. We went about doing this by using painters tape and laying out a few different designs. It was about finding a design that fitted best in the space and…

Fall living room accents

Category: Home Decor

As we have stepped into fall I love to try to make a space feel seasonal without having to change everything. Here’s a peek at some fall living room accents that don’t require an over haul. Fall Living Room Accents A good rule of thumb to follow with most areas of the home is texture and layers. Doing those two things will add dimension and make a space feel cozy and welcoming. But the best part about those is that they don’t always have to be seasonal specific. Just a few touches of fall will make a big impact. The mantle I kept somewhat simple this year but still have varying heights. One great item to use anytime is greenery. It can easy be adapted for any season. Here I just used a basic faux garland and eucalyptus and just added a couple pieces with some fall inspired colors….

July Favorites

Category: Lifestyle

I can’t believe how fast summer is flying by and its already time to round up the July favorites. Like most months, the favorites are a combo of fashion and home finds so lets go! Trousers and Aviators The top 2 items were these Stellar Trousers and High Key Aviators. These trousers (and jacket) were a new purchase for me in July and I cannot stop wearing them! They wear like activewear but you can style them so many ways. Plus mostly importantly, they are sooo comfy. My aviator sunnies have been a daily staple for months. I love how they are a bit oversized and look good on everyone! Product details Master Bathroom Mirror and Lights This master bathroom is still one of my favorite renovations in our house. I just love how all the details came together. These mirrors are heavy duty and the rounded corners…

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale – Top Picks

Category: Style

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale preview is now live so I thought I would share some of my favorite pieces and a few shopping tips. After working for Nordstrom for many years this has definitely become one of my favorite sales. The main difference between this sale and many others is that the merchandise is new merchandise arriving for fall that is temporarily discounted for the sale and then goes back to regular price; while most sales are items at the end of the season when inventory is being moved out. The Details The Anniversary sale is open to everyone from August 19th – 30th with prices going back up on the 31st. All cardholders can gain early access on August 13th with some levels being able to access earlier. This year the main difference is the preview is all available online and the best part is you can add items…
