Beautiful Distractions Design Mood Boards

Jake Arnold’s New Furniture Collection Plus, More Beautiful Distractions

February 25, 2023

Last Updated on September 27, 2023

It’s almost spring which means new spring decor is dropping, and let me tell you, there are some gems right now! Here’s what caught my eye this week. The Jake Arnold Collection just dropped at Crate & Barrel, and it is lit! But then again, I would expect nothing less. from Jake. His style runs deep through every detail. The lighting is especially beautiful. Here are a few living room designs using what is on my wishlist.

Have you watched Poker Face? It’s on Peacock, which I never knew that channel existed until The Boy showed me how to find the app on the TV.

I’ve professed my love for Natasha Lyonne in Russian Doll (please drop a third season), but Poker Face takes binge-watching to another level. I will never get sick of her acting or her amazing hair. She is at the pinnacle of girls who are cool AF and knocks it out of the park, and it helps that the cast is fire too. Natasha is the perfect modern-day Columbo. This is a must-watch if you have Peacock.

While waiting for another episode to drop, I also got sucked into The Resort on Peacock. Good show. Entertaining. Made me laugh. The ending was a bit strange and far-fetched, but overall, I liked it. I’d totally watch another season.

What’s For Dinner?

This may sound like a weird mention on a home decor blog, but that’s what Beautiful Distractions are all about. I found a new place to shop for meat—specifically beef. I grew up in a rural town in Wisconsin, and two of my high school classmates, Tim and Shana, got married and now own Cedar View Farms. They recently started working with BetterFed Beef to help shake up the industry and bring a sustainable option directly to US consumers.

The beef is processed by BetterFed in Minnesota, and the cattle are US-bred, born and raised by families and farmers across the Midwest. I was curious, so I bought a box of ground beef and a chuck roast. After cooking the ground beef for tacos, I can officially say, yes, there’s a huge difference in the taste, color, tenderness, and quality of BetterFed beef versus grocery store beef. Even the kids noticed the difference. Best part—I placed my order on a Monday afternoon, and the box was delivered to my door two days later.

If you’re looking to support Midwest farmers and you happen to eat red meat, definitely check these guys out. The price point is slightly higher than the grocery store, but the taste and quality make up for it. (No, I wasn’t paid to write this. I just really like this company’s values.)

Book Of The Month

I just finished reading the book Lessons In Chemistry, and it might be my new all-time favorite. It’s a heartwarming and, at times, heartbreaking story about Elizabeth Zott, a woman living in the 50s and 60s who doesn’t fit the housewife mold. There’s a reason why this book has a 4.5-star rating on Amazon with over 104,000 reviews.

This is Bonnie Garmus’s debut book, and I can’t wait until she writes something new—although I’m unsure how she could top Lessons In Chemistry.

Sneakers That Caught My Eye

My love for sneakers runs deep, and I have 2 pairs sitting in my cart. Both are giving me all the vintage feels, especially the LA Gear sneakers. Yes, you read that right — The same LA Gear you remember from the 80s and 90s, and yes, they are hot pink and neon yellow. A totally different vibe are these New Balance sneakers in white with terra cotta accent.

Home Scents

Have you heard of a candle warmer? It’s my newfound obsession and trending on TikTok. It’s basically a heat lamp that warms your candle enough to melt the wax and doubles the life of your candle’s scent. Not only is it safer (yes, I have forgotten to blow out a candle more than once), but it also eliminates smoke and soot. I’ve been warming my Maison Souquet candle that I bought in Paris. It’s ALMOST gone, but the candle warmer has prolonged its life.

Affordable Modern Lighting

IKEA seems to be making the new Sabine Marcelis collection, VARMBLIXT, available slowly but surely. It launched on the website in late January, but purchasing has proven difficult. I’m pining away for the donut-shaped light, but alas, it’s still unavailable. They’re estimating late February – early March. I”ve got myself on the notification list. However, the round bronze mirror wall light is finally available for delivery!

That’s all for now. Hope you’re having a great weekend!
