(7 tricky window scenarios)
Every house has at least one awkwardly placed window. Whether it’s really close to a corner or sits 4 feet off the ground. I broke down the 7 most common awkward window placements and whether or not curtains or shades would be best for each.
Antique hutches have been so popular this year. With rustic interiors, weathered woods, and antique furniture making a comeback in the design world, I’m not surprised to see hutches making appearances again too. I bought the antique hutch of my dreams this year and promptly put it in our living room. Hutches don’t just go in the kitchen or dining room!
This hack is actually so good! No more apps that make you pay to identify the plant after you downloaded it. Just snap a photo of the plant with your iPhone and get all the information for free. Here’s how!
I’ve tried a lot of leggings ranging from $20 to $120 and these are my absolute favorite. They feel like skin, no sagging or falling at the waste, and come in multiple lengths for every height. 1,000/10 recommend.
Wood planks on walls are all the rage. Slap em on vertically and we all start drooling. But when I revealed our primary bedroom project, the #1 most talked about thing was the wood slat ceiling. It has all the charm with knots, cracks, and seams and of all the things that could catch your eye in this room…the ceiling is first every time.
Never have I ever received more divided and passionate comments than when I shared this reel. It became a mulch vs rock debate and to be honest, the reel was never about that…it was about unsolicited advice which makes the comments even funnier to me. But since it’s a debate now, I’m team mulch all the way! 🙂
If we’re picking sides, I love the look of dried flowers and stems over faux if possible. And these dried star flowers have, and continue to be, one of my favorites! Yours too apparently!
I’ve been offering free art for years now and this year I gathered a new collection filled with sketches, paintings, moody scenes, and still life portraits. May I be so bold to say I like this collection even better than the first?!
Ok, this one….this one’s worth talking about. I think you and I both were shocked by the outcome of this project. We found this exterior door for $20 at Habitat for Humanity and you guys convinced me to get it…so I did knowing full well it might not fit or work in our space. I envisioned it as our back door and with some tweaking, (aka Chris trimmed it to fit and I refinished it from top to bottom) we have a stunning back door and a story to tell.
I’ve tried a many paint rollers and there has been one clear winner when it comes to getting a smooth finish. Better than foam rollers by far!
This was a classic “you live and you learn” experiment. I had no clue bird baths were so high maintenance until the water started turning green days after we bought ours. Of course cleaning it daily will prevent the algae, but I don’t have the time for that! So I tried lots of experiments that are supposed to keep them clean longer and there was one solution that worked best!
If I get the pick favorites, and I do, I vote the cedar room as my favorite exterior spot! It took us so much time and brain power to install the cedar shakes one by one, but the vision we had in our head matches the finished look and I’m so dang proud of us for accomplishing it!
You asked for it, you got it! We love our Maiden Home sofa so much, but it’s a bit of an investment. You asked for a lookalike for less and I rounded up a handful!
Have you gone online curtain shopping lately?! So intimidating and SO expensive. So when I found these budget friendly curtains that look and feel so luxurious, I immediately labeled them my favorite. I used two panels on each end for an extra full look!
The most loved thing of all? This photo right here and the pair of basket planters that steal the show. The number of you I’ve had to let down and tell that I don’t have a link to these planters (they’re from Home Goods) was crushing for all of us! But I did find a lookalike set. My tip: line the insides with plastic so they can hold soil and poke a few holes in the bottom so water can drain.
