I used to do this thing where I asked 5 Random Questions. I answered them first in the post, and you answered them in the comment section below. It was a great way to get to know other readers and for me to get to know you. The last time we played this little game was waaaaay back in February. This, of course, isn’t mandatory particip[...]
Phew! Man, the past week has flown by. Radio silence has ensued (sorry about that...it's not you, it's me), but I swear I'm not sitting on the sofa eating bon-bons watching Days Of Our Lives. (Is that show even on anymore? In college was addicted to it.) Anyhoo, I've been moving around furniture, styling vignettes, giving the UPS man hug[...]
Late last Spring I gave both my primary bedroom and guest room a major makeover. I was on design project overload, and oddly, it seemed like every other blogger on the planet was doing the same. What a strange coincidence. Everyone I knew was suddenly tearing their homes apart and documenting the process. Why are you guys stealing my thu[...]
A new series coming at cha called Beautiful Distractions. What on earth does that mean you ask? Well, simply put, interesting and rad links, articles and home decor that has recently caught my attention. I'm an online shopping whore (Ya, I said it. Sad but true, and please pardon my french), so I'm constantly browsing the interwebs[...]

I know, I know, it's been such a long time since I shared a fun cocktail recipe, but I'm going to make it up to you by hitting you with a doozy - the best cocktail with sake - well, sparkling sake, that is. I thought the champagne smash cocktail would be the cocktail of choice the oth[...]
Today I'm participating in the Cozy Little House's Fall Home Tour. Brenda asked me to join in a while back, but somehow I missed her email. I found it last week while cleaning out my inbox, responded immediately in hopes to be included, and was lucky enough to have her squeeze me in. Thank you Brenda! But after she accepted, I panicked[...]
A good portion of the decor in my home is vintage. Guests that visit often ask me where I got this vase, that painting, or fancy rattan lounger. Much to their surprise, I know where each piece was purchased, who I purchased it from, and more often than not, I have a story to go along with that particular piece. But there are a few things[...]
If you've been watching my Instagram, you've probably seen a couple of sneak peeks of the guest bedroom makeover. I moved towards a look that was out of my comfort zone. Right before teaming up with Decorist, I noticed I was obsessing over white and neutral spaces. Pinning them like I was on fire. Decorist hooked me up with As[...]
Dear Emily Henderson, You'll be happy to know I've finally received some pillow help from the gals at Unison Home. I stopped into the store for a visit and pillow lesson last week, and just to make sure I had mastered the art of mixing and matching, they were kind enough to stop over to the house. I also might have bribed them with[...]
