While working on the bedroom makeover, I thought of a new description for beautiful rugs, floor flair. I declared it was the coolest new adjective ever. What is it you ask? Simply put, glamorous floor accessories that are so rad they might make you cry. Rugs, tile, paint, wood...if it makes you so incredibly happy that you ball like a ba[...]

Today is not just Tuesday; it's one of those super exciting, special days for me. Today I'm being interviewed on Chairish. They asked me questions about the items I purchased on one of their Chairish Instagram Sales and how I styled the pieces in my home. Woah! Slow down. How did this happen, you ask? Well, here's the back story, but[...]
Oh Emily. I'm so sorry. I do realize you are completely distraught with some people's irreverent taste in ghastly sofas, but I know you're really only masking your sadness because you peeked at my front room. Charlie Hendo has been gently wiping the tears streaming down your face and cooing oh so sweetly, "Don't cry momma." But that[...]
Hey, hey, hey you guys! (I’m suddenly feeling like Fat Albert here.) I’m back again to guest host another Thrift Score Thursday on Instagram. I really hope you brought your A-game and hashtagged all your thrifted treasures with #thriftscorethursday. Unlike last time, I was perfectly prepared, well prepared until my lovely ladies adde[...]
So a long, long, LONG time ago, I photographed my front room and posted it to the blog. This is when I had about 5 visitors a day and you guys probably hadn't any idea of its existence.

This past weekend for me was really weird. The boy goes on a duck hunting adventure in Wisconsin every year. Normally that means he drives the kiddos up a day early, drops them at grandpa and grandma's house, and I follow Friday night after work. Well, this year was different. He kept saying to me, "Wow momma! You get 4 days off to yourse[...]
Happy Wednesday you guys! I have to tell ya, I didn't think much could top my getaway weekend at Camp Wandawega, but let me tell you, I think I died and went to junkyard heaven when walked through the pearly gates of the Elkhorn Flea last Sunday morning. Now, I've been to many a flea, but I'd have to say this is one of THE best I've ever[...]
Let's take a mini-vacation to Camp Wandawega in Elkhorn, WI. I've been dying to share our yummy weekend getaway, but after arriving home, I immediately unpacked and got to work processing the photos. Magical, Camp Wandawega is just magical! I just can't stop gushing about it. It was quiet, cozy, quaint, and everything we wanted it to be![...]
Sometimes people walk through my home and say, "OMG, where on earth do you find all this stuff?", and I never really seem to have a good answer. My response is usually, "All over I guess, you just have to have patience to find unique items." Recently a friend of mine was explaining to me her way of designing a room. She goes to one sto[...]
