Sometimes people ask me, “Hey, how would you define your decorating style?” and I usually just ramble or stumble upon my words. It’s hard to describe what my style is. It’s an eclectic, vintage, classic, mid-century modern, industrial, with a dash of mantiques…but really, it is hard to explain. I’d recognize it if I saw it at[...]

There's no denying it; I'm a sucker for a gallery wall. I love EVERYTHING about them! When we moved, I thought the boy might move out with how many collages of wall decor he had to hang. One would think after 3 years I might run out of wall space, but no...I keep finding new, unique wall art or photography that must go in the house. In t[...]
Today I'd like to share a fun styling project that I've been working on with Laura over at Avery Street Designs. you know, one of those proper design posts with lots of before and afters, resources, and such. It's a pretty exciting one that I can't wait to share with you! Don't worry, I know you want to know where you can buy some of the[...]
OK, so you are really going to see my photo booth nerdery come out in this post…I apologize in advance. This past weekend, I got to geek out at the International Photo Booth Convention hosted by Photobooth.net and A&A Studios in Chicago, IL. The convention was open to the public to celebrate the wonderment that is the photo b[...]
If you have been reading this blog, then you will remember a while back I posted some images of our living room … you know that room that has no TV and adults sip coffee and chat room? We have one of those rooms, but one will usually find me sipping coffee, sitting quietly in a chair only early Sunday mornings. The dude wakes me up whi[...]
After a bit of prodding, begging, pleading, and a little googling, The Boy built me a pipe shelf for my home office, and I have to say, it’s AWESOME! it took me quite a while to style it, but it is finally coming together. I love decorating the little spaces in our home almost as much as the large spaces, but sometimes find it difficul[...]
I've been searching for 3 years for window treatments for the TV room and I think I might have finally found the perfect curtains. The front room's linen striped panels came from Serena & Lily. I love them but thought they might be too lightweight for the back room and I also wasn't so sure I wanted everything in the house to be so m[...]
I don't know about you, but when I see a vintage dip and dunk chemical photobooth I get giddy with excitement. I've always adored them but growing up in small-town USA, they were not plentiful. I vividly remember finding one on a class trip to Six Flags Great America and blowing every penny I had. Dragging classmate after classmate into[...]
A new house and blank slates can be exciting and overwhelming to a person who is not a professional interior designer such as me. When we first moved into our home three years ago, the entire house was every shade of pink: rose, salmon, fuchsia...it was ugly folks! In fact, we almost didn't look at it based on the way it showed online. T[...]
