My Favorite Table Lamps
Lighting is one of those things that is so important in a space, but often over-looked. Most newer homes have over-head lighting, including tons of can lights, so the majority of homeowners think…’there’s plenty of light, I don’t need lamps.’ The thing is, though, is that there are really 3 kinds of

Transitional Living Room Mood Board
I work with so many clients who are just not sure of what their personal style is. The first thing I do is ask them to add me to any Pinterest boards they’ve started for their home. There are usually some stray items on the boards, but I am almost always able to identify the elements they enjoy. Som

My Favorite Table Runners
I am not a big table setter. Like...when we host holidays, I'm usually pulling everything off of the table. I do like to have it looking nice for every day, though, without looking too overdone or stuffy. The one thing I always have to have on my table is a table runner. I have a few that I rotate o

Family-Friendly Basement Furniture Makeover
Basements are one of those spaces that can either be really amazing or a big fat letdown. It’s easy for us to put our cast-off furniture down there and whatever left-over décor we have…and call it a day. When I started working with my clients almost 9 months ago now, her basement was somewhere in

My Favorite Picks from JC Penney
So, when was the last time you thought about the store JC Penney?? Has it been a while? Yeah...me too.

Cauliflower Pasta Bake
I’ve been super lazy about cooking lately and it shows… I need to get back on the recipe train and start planning out our meals a little better. I thought I’d share this recipe I made earlier in the summer—Cauliflower “Pasta” Bake—with you, in case you’ve been a little lazy in the kitchen too. I kno

My Favorite Throw Pillows from TJ Maxx (all under $20!)
One of things I hear most often from people is that they don't know which throw pillows to choose. A lot of times, they admit to just keeping the pillows that came with their furniture, because it seems like the easier solution. Also, throw pillows can be a little on the pricier side. That's why, I'

Basement Remodel: Before and After
Well, friends, I’m coming off Labor Day Weekend and then another long weekend away with friends. It may or may not be a rough re-entry to real-life. I can do it, though…or, at least, that’s what I’m telling myself. I’ve been wanting to share a client project with you for so long…like, I started th
My Favorite Fall Decor Pieces
There has been a slight hint of Fall in the air and now I want all of the cozy things! I'm one of those people who doesn't go crazy decking the house out for every holiday. I do make a few switches here and there, depending on the season. Decorating for different holidays and seasons doesn't have to
Big Boy Bedroom Mood Board
I was polling my Instagram family the other day for what kind of mood boards they'd like to see, because I needed some inspiration, and want to make sure I'm sharing the things that people need in my posts! (You can find me on Instagram HERE .) I got some great responses and was excited to get star
