    Electric Fireplace before and after!

    … *Sponsored by Modern Blaze, the opinions are my own. Ever since buying our home almost 5 years ago, we wanted to add an electric fireplace in our living room.  Adding a fireplace whether electric, gas, or wood burning adds coziness to any space.  We chose the Touchstone Onyx 50″wall mounted electric fireplace from Modern Blaze linked here.  Modern Blaze shared a coupon code for 10% off of this unit.  Use code: SWAG10 . We are not diy people so I wanted a unit that is easy to install as well as a simple aesthetic.  Modern Blaze has several size options as well as all in one units that include the…

    Let’s talk rug sizes!

    … Today, I am going to be chatting a little about how to chose the right rug size for each area of your home.  Now, let me just say, there’s no right or wrong here.  I am an interior designer and learned all the things in design school, but you ultimately have to pick rugs that are right for you and your family.  Sometimes you just have to reuse what you have as well.  I totally get it.  I switch and swap our rugs all of the time!  Having rugs in your home is important and here’s why: Did you know that rugs act as an air filter in each…

    … Hey y’all!  I thought I would share a solution to a dilemma we had with our laundry space.  Some of you may have the same issue, no storage or cabinets above.  So I thought I would share this easy budget diy with you!  Here’s the before of the space: The first thing I did was clear the clutter.  The easiest and budget friendly way to add storage is by installing open shelving.  I knew I wanted a rod as well to hang clothes on directly from the dryer.  Hey, anything to cut down on ironing right?!? We found an amazing deal on pre painted shelves, brackets, and the rod…

    All about Bedrooms

    … Bedrooms should be an important space in your home.  After all, it is where you sleep, relax, and find rest.  I’m sharing some bedroom design ideas to give you some inspiration so that you can create your own serene living space.  Let’s start with my own master bedroom: Before: First things first, pick your bed wall/feature wall.  A good rule is to use the uninterrupted wall. Don’t be afraid to put your bed against a window, or if you don’t have a window frame your bed with curtains to make a statement.  The goal here, your bed wall is the focal point of the space.  You can see the…

    .. Thank you Vintage Tub and Bath for sponsoring this post!  The opinions expressed in this post are my own. I grew up in the house my Mother grew up in.  We all shared one bathroom.  I always dreamed of having my own space with a vintage claw foot tub like you see on the princess movies.  That was my inspiration for our girls’ bathroom!  Let’s start with a good before of the space! We gutted the space down to the studs.  Since the existing space had a walk in shower, I knew to stay on budget, I needed to order a stand alone tub.  I found an amazing set…

    Thanksgiving Tablescape “on a budget”

    Hi beautiful friends!  I am so excited to share with you my Thanksgiving tablescape, AND its budget friendly!  I’ve teamed up with some of my favorite bloggers and they too have shared their tablescapes as well.  I’ve listed a direct link to each at the bottom of this post. My inspiration for this look was from my woodland spode china.  I wanted to bring the outside in by using different textures. Y’all, I didn’t buy a thing for this setting.  I used some faux fall pumpkins and pulled decor from other spaces to style our table.  Let’s talk about the wine glasses.  Guys, these are acrylic, and from Walmart!  I love…
