At Home

The post I was planning for this afternoon just hasn’t been coming together for me (which is just how it goes at times) so I thought I’d hit you up with a quick update from the homefront. I spent about four hours yesterday enacting a cleaning/organizing blitz on my office/craft room, which is also going to serve as a third bedroom. This room was one of the first rooms I organized when we moved in, but then as we needed …

The last few weeks have been full of excitement around here as we’ve been working on getting settled in and organized. While we moved about a month ago now, it was just last weekend that we got the rest of our belongings out of storage and it went from feeling pretty relaxed and peaceful around …

A few weeks ago I shared photos of our new apartment and announced that I’m working with the awesome folks at Keep to make our new place a home. I also made mention of one particular room for which there were big plans. Truthfully, it’s one of the rooms I’m most excited …

Weather pending, over the weekend I am planning to tackle painting the end tables for the living room. I’m pretty excited about it, I have to say! Which, naturally, has me thinking pretty long and hard (ridiculously so if I’m honest) about the other pieces I want to put in the room. A few …

When thinking about our new apartment, having a pretty little bar cart is definitely on my wish list. What better way to show off all my favorite glassware, I say! To keep everything on that wish list organized, I’ve been using Keep for a couple of months now and absolutely love it. Think of it as Pinterest meets shopping, blending inspiration …

You guys have heard me talk an awful lot about moving in the last few weeks, so I thought today I would take a few moments to share a little apartment tour introducing you to the new space I’m calling home these days. Right now I’m tackling the initial phases …

I’m currently working on a little overhaul of the nook I’ve claimed as my home office and thought I would share some of my inspiration and ideas today. I am working with the desk I already own, but otherwise I’m looking to introduce a lot more fun, color and pattern. I’ve been working from the dining room table for the last several weeks and I’m excited to get my little space all set up! A mix of red, white, neutrals …

I’ve mentioned a handful of times over the last few months that this summer was one of great change in my life. One of those changes involves moving this upcoming weekend so I’ve been doing lots of packing and sorting and, of course, digging up inspiration for the new digs. Honestly, as I head into the week, decorating and settling in are about the only things on my mind. The house is a little bungalow with a distinct cottage vibe. …

I’ve mentioned a few times over the past few weeks that I have a lot of new projects in the works these days. One of those was the new site design which debuted this week, of course, but another includes finishing up my home studio. I moved on from my day job about a month ago so I’m now full time blogging, styling and event designing from home (um, little girl dreams come true = yes). All of which means …
