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….

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!

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.

Favorite products for a sun kissed look

Category: Style

Over the years I’ve learned to rely on a few different products to get a sun kissed look. I am one who doesn’t naturally get a tan, mostly because I am a big advocate for sunscreen since I am fair and tend to burn easily. You will see me in a big floppy hat majority of the time I am in the sun. I also live in Michigan and our sunshine is limited here haha! So I have found some favorite products to give me the glow I’m looking for. Get that sun kissed look Nars products have been a favorite of mine for years. Their bronzer (I used shade Laguna) has been a staple of mine as long as I can remember. The undertones are neutral and done turn orange on me. I also have been using Nars Multiple for some time now as well. This product…

Amazon Kitchen Decor

When it comes to finding kitchen decor I love pieces that are functional as well as decorative. I have recently found a lot of great amazon kitchen decor that I wanted to share. The style of my kitchen is kind of a modern farmhouse but these pieces will pretty much work into any design style. Two of my current favorite things in my kitchen are my faux greenery and my dutch oven. These faux greens I have used all over my house. They come in a pack of three and they go great everywhere! A dutch oven is another great piece because of its function and design. I use mine all the time and just leave it out on my stove because its so pretty. Linking some other similar affordable dutch over options because they can get pricey and mine is not currently available. Click an image for product…

DIY Closet Makeover

Category: Home Decor

Sometimes the smallest project can make the largest impact on your daily life. This DIY closet makeover is the perfect example of that! When we moved into this house 3 years ago we gained so many wonderful things but the one thing I gave up was closet space. I could deal with the space but the lack of organization made it that much more difficult. It just had old shelving that was not well spaced as well as the rod was in an odd spot. So for some time I just gave up and my stuff was literally thrown all over the closet – literally. I had big plans to rip it all out and try to create a walk in closet out of rearranging our 2 separate closets and moving things around etc. Well after months of trying to work and rework that idea I realized that wasn’t…
