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.

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[...]
Some of you already know, but I have 99 problems, and pillows might be #1. Just call me Aunt Fossi with the coordination of a T-Rex, dancing drunk on the table with hot pink lipstick...read pillow problems, and I swear it'll make sense. All photos by John Sturdy Anyhoo, back to pillows...mixing all the patterns, colors, s[...]
With both bedroom makeovers wrapping up, I have decided to keep being crazy with the old ball rolling on the home makeovers. This time I'm looking at you my home office.

It had nothing to do with not liking plants, I guess I just tend to kill them faster than most humans on the planet. and should really stick to faux plants. In general, I think I'm a bit intimidated.

If I didn't have children, I know this slow reader could probably plow through it in one day. For those of you who haven't read it yet, Sophia Amoruso is the founder and CEO of NastyGal.com. In eight years, she went from a small[...]
Everyone has 5 minutes a day to take a break. Even the busiest of people. A little time to find some stillness. Quiet the mind. A little time to relax. To calm your mind and body. And to help you with that, Plumb and House Of Hipsters think everyone should take five minutes a day for an #artbreak. Just 5 minutes, you, a pencil and some p[...]
I have to admit, 100% of the time, if you were to place two identical items in front of me, one having spectacular packaging and the other with horrible type and all the crazy colors of a fruit bowl, I'd pick the pretty packaging hands down. Even if it cost more money, I'd buy the pretty packaging. Materialistic, maybe? Vain, maybe?[...]
