It's week two of our Design at Home series and this week Aryn Guillory, interior designer and founder of her design firm, Oyster Creek Studios is sharing how to style your coffee table! Whether your table is round square or rectangular - she's got you covered. We didn't have a coffee table in the living room of our home ...
Each week, I start to look forward to the weekend but other than going outdoors for a bit, our weekends are spent at home. I'm trying to focus on gratitude right now - thankful we are both employed and able to work remotely, that we have a comfortable home, a full fridge and pantry, enough devices for our children to do their remote schoolwork, an ...
Brittany and I went to high school together when I switched schools for my second half of 12th grade and I used to chat with her all the time when I worked at a tanning salon through HS and college (I know tanning salons are horrible and truly regret all the tanning I did, which is why I'm so careful now!) We kept in touch via Facebook over the ...
Our shoe closet is probably the most functional thing I dreamed up for our new home and I get a ton of questions about it every time I share it on my stories, so I decided to put this blog post together!In our last home, we had a small "coat closet" at the bottom of the stairs that led to our garage, but for the first few years of living there, we ...
I recently reached out to Aryn Guillory, interior designer and founder of her design firm, Oyster Creek Studios, to partner on some home-décor related content here on my blog. Aryn helped us design our master bedroom in our third home and I’m obsessed with her aesthetic and the spaces she designs (you can check out her beautiful home, here). ...
One of my favorite interior designers is Shea McGee of Studio McGee. I have followed her for a few years now and always admire the spaces she creates. I even had Harper's room painted the same shade of pink Shea used in one of her projects (Benjamin Moore Melted Ice Cream). The McGee's also recently completed the construction of their own custom ...
We've lived in our new home since last November and I hadn't quite gotten a handle on my closet until recently. It's a touch smaller than our last master closet, but we shared that one and my husband has his own closet now which is nice! My closet connects to our master bathroom and Kevin's is connected to the entryway of our bedroom. PLANNING ...
I’ve raved about my Nespresso machine for years (and still love it!) but there’s a new love in our lives and it’s our Breville Bambino Plus Espresso machine (also on amazon, where we purchased ours, here). We purchased it before we moved into our new home last November and it’s our weekend latte go-to. (floating shelf sources ...
I have always painted my nails at home - I find it easy, cost-effective and can usually make my manicures last about a week.I recently added a new step to my at-home manicure routine that has made a big difference in how "polished" (no pun intended) my manicure looks. I finally invested in a few cuticle tools that have made all the difference. I ...
Being at home 24/7 has led me to scour the internet for items to enhance and complete our spaces. I put our entryway wallpaper install as well as some curtain installs on hold, so I'm trying to find small things to add a little cheer to our spaces before we can get to some of our larger projects. I recently purchased new pillows for some of our ...
