I love adding books to my ever-growing collection and thought I'd share the latest and greatest! One of my favorites is Jewels that Made History - it's such an interesting read!

The Best Ginger Jars Online
Ginger jars are classic, but they've grown in popularity over the last few years. I've long collected this blue and white pottery, but my collection has evolved over the years to include higher-quality and more beautiful (IMO) pieces. Previously, 100% of my ginger jar collection was from Home Goods and there is absolutely nothing wrong with ...
Favorite Sconces for Any Space in Your Home
Beautiful sconces are not only a fantastic extra light source, but they can transform a plain wall in a bathroom when flanking or installed above a mirror. As a matter of fact, I love sconces in almost any space - flanking a TV or art, flanking a bed, flanking a dining room credenza, in a mudroom above cubbies, in a kitchen over the sink area - ...
How to Find Items You Love on Facebook Marketplace
Ever since I shared our Stanley bamboo nightstands and bamboo China cabinet, I’ve gotten a ton of requests to share how to source/find these items online. There are sites like Chairish, Etsy and even One Kings Lane that have beautiful antiques, but they’re often extremely expensive (especially now with lead times in the furniture industry being so ...
Round Top Texas Antique Fair
Last weekend, I attended the Round Top Antique Fair in Round Top, Texas for the first time. I had always wanted to go and have friends who went each year, but they typically went on weekdays and I always thought weekends might be too busy. I’m a little bit sad I missed so many years of attending – it was a really fun experience and the perfect ...

I absolutely adore this classic style and they're actually incredibly comfortable! We've had these chairs for over five ...

The title of this post is misleading because these mirrors can truly be used anywhere. Bathrooms, bedrooms, above dressers, console tables - anything goes! I have these beautiful wavy mirrors in Harper's room and they make such a statement! I also have this floral gold mirror in our power bathroom - it's small but packs a design punch with ...
Beautiful Coffee Table Books: Interiors, Travel, Entertaining, Fashion & Garden
I think I may be addicted to coffee table books (you say that like it's a bad thing ;) ) I love flipping through them as I sip coffee on weekends (they're kind of an escape!) and I also love that they're stunning home decor accents - whether it's for a coffee table, console, etagere or dresser. Here are some of my favorites in design, ...

Painting Our Interior Doors
We're on our fourth house in 12 years and I've never painted our interior doors. I've seen it become more popular in recent years and was intrigued - especially when homes with mostly white walls had doors in shades of blue and gray. We recently had our entryway wallpapered in this Serena & Lily Priano wallpaper and the moment it was ...
