I have a weakness for bedding, if you didn’t know that already. Sometimes I come across a product that I don’t need, but wish I had a need for. Maybe you do? I wish I had an extra bed for these beautiful and romantic Love Letter sheets (that are on sale!) from anthropologie. How cozy … Continue reading

How To: Paint A Lattice Border
One of my favorite DIY elements in my newly decorated guest room is the lattice border I painted around this basic mirror. It was simple to do, but took a bit of time taping and waiting for layers of paint to dry. I was inspired by a feature in Martha Stewart Living that suggested painting … Continue reading

The Big Reveal: Guest Room Before and After
The guest room is finally together. I have a few things left to touch up, but it is finished and awaiting its first new guest! Remember when I started working on the guest room? I cleared everything out and started with a ‘White Box Challenge,’ just like on Design Star! Well, this season of Design … Continue reading
Choosing Guest Bedroom Colors
I told you last week that I’d share the color scheme for my ongoing guest bedroom project with you. Despite a short delay due to a broken water heater, here it is: turquoise, yellow, and gray, with white accents. The bedroom is not done yet, but I have most major elements in place. I’m … Continue reading
Bedroom Decorating: The White Box Challenge
In honor of HGTV’s premier of Design Star tonight, I have a special new project of my own: the Guest Bedroom White Box Challenge. I started yesterday by emptying out the guest room of everything except the white bed (yep, even that mirror left after I took the photo), so I could paint and redecorate. … Continue reading
Weekend Updates: Swing Arm Lamps and New Crystal Knobs
I didn’t tackle everything on my list, but I did make it to six (I think that’s a record) estate sales and to the Sunset Celebration weekend. As for my checklist, I made huevos rancheros (yum!), found some great succulent containers (post coming soon!), and hung up my Home Depot swing arm lamps and installed … Continue reading
Design Love: Navy and Dark Wood

Pictures that didn’t make the Small/Cool cut
I took a few other pictures last week in preparation for Apartment Therapy’s Small/Cool contest (thank you thank you if you voted! and if not, click here), and thought I’d share them. First off, Daphne being chill (for once) on her new doggie bed. This is part of the bedroom. I need some more art. … Continue reading
Small Bedroom Gallery Wall
I hung up these few pictures above my dresser in the bedroom a few weeks ago, since the wall was gaping bare. I think I made a nice little scene, with a framed poem, original piece of art (that’s the one that’s covered in glare…), and photo of me and my sweetie! The art and … Continue reading
