Yup, I said what I said and it's not just because my kitchen is white. White kitchens will never go out of style, they're just not trending hard like the beige and green cabinets of 2022. So if you're about to jump into a kitchen remodel and you're wondering if you should really purchase those white kitchen cabinets, I got ya! Here are 7[...]
It's been a hot minute since I've written a fireplace renovation update. Yes, I could blame it on being busy and the holidays, but really, my lack of enthusiasm was due to my choice of paint. That deep saturated blue-gray Farrow & Ball DeNimes paint paired with the honed limestone fireplace reminded me of prison walls or better yet, a[...]
If you're looking to buy the best faux plants that look real - you've hit the jackpot. Time and time again I'm asked, "Is that plant real? How did you care for it?" Each and every time I can't help but chuckle. As soon as I reveal they're fake, I get a, "SHUT UP!" which I love because it wasn't too long ago that designers would crinkle[...]

I mean, we spill...a lot...especially now that my kiddos are learning to cook. Zoe dropped a pot of spaghetti sauce the other day. My son spilled melted butter all over the floor (and the dog). But I ge[...]
The latest upholstery project really pushed me out of my comfort zone, especially the bold rust fabric on the vintage Alky chair. Although all that color and pattern was nerve-racking, I was so happy with how the chairs transformed the room. Keeping that same frame of mind for the modern fireplace makeover, I've decided that since this is[...]
As we push towards the end of the year, you might be wondering, what the new interior design trends are for 2022. Well, my friend, I have that answer for you. After attending High Point Furniture Market the other week with my friend Carrie (you may remember her '80s modern home tour or maybe you follow her Instagram Neon Fringey - ya that[...]
After purchasing the gold velvet curtains for the bedroom and living room, I've found more resources on where to buy cheap curtains and drapes online. Side note, just because they run on the affordable side, doesn't mean they can't look drop-dead gorgeous. I'm a lover of all things color, but when it comes to adding color to my room decor[...]
