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 ...

Where to Buy Spindle Chairs
A spindle chair is a classic design that can fit in with many home styles and aesthetics! They also vary greatly in terms of price point, so I'm putting together a post with various options! We purchased ours over five years ago and had them reupholstered recently (see that post here). Here are spindle and spool chair options at all price ...
Aerin Jacqueline Beaded Chandelier Lookalikes
I've long admired Aerin's Jacqueline beaded chandelier (it also comes in this medium size). I wanted to get it for our bedroom, but couldn't bring myself to splurge. I still have some regret about that as I ended up purchasing two other chandeliers - the first was too rustic (see images below) and the second was too large for the space. I ended up ...
Reupholstering Our Spindle Chairs
Thank you Serena & Lily for gifting us the fabric for these chairs! When we moved into our third house, I purchased a pair of spindle chairs for our living room (FYI Serena & Lily carries beautiful spindle chairs!) I absolutely adore this classic style and they're actually incredibly comfortable! We've had these chairs for over five ...
Easter & Spring Tablescape Ideas
Now that we've ordered our new dining table (read about the table sizing saga, here), I'm ready to think about setting a beautiful table for Easter. Our RH table should be delivered sometime in late March and I can't wait to dress it up for Spring (see some of my favorite serving, flatware and glassware here!) Our temporary plastic table ...
Serena & Lily Spring Sale
Serena & Lily is a longtime favorite of mine for furniture and home decor. Their fresh coastal-inspired pieces work with so many home styles - perhaps that's what I most appreciate about their offerings. Their pieces look beautiful mixed into a modern farmhouse, traditional home or one that skews more modern. I'm going to share the S&L ...
Monday Musings
BACK TO MOVEMENT I FINALLY (I feel this deserves all caps because it's been over 6 months) started exercising again and it feels really good. I started with Melissa Wood's beginner flows, which are a little more gentle. I ordered this ruffled sports bra in lilac last week to "celebrate" my resumption of movement and I absolutely love it. I wear ...
Coastal Furniture Finds
I love bamboo, cane, Chippendale, rattan and wicker furniture. It adds a little coastal and/or grandmillennial vibe to any space. I thought I'd share some of my favorite finds today, inspired by pieces in our own home. I love Chippendale chairs - ours are from Ballard but I found some dupes here and here. A bamboo etagere can add elegance ...
Favorite Mirrors for Bathrooms & Power Rooms
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 ...
Friday Five
ONEI finally ordered this carpet and upholstery cleaning machine. I'm going to use it on our outdoor furniture and our main sofa! I'll be sure to share the results on IG stories. Our main sofa is in amazing condition, but after over 5 years, I bet it could use a cleaning! We do use waffle blankets on the bench seats of both of our sofas, which ...
