Decorating a Fall Farmhouse Entryway with Neutral Faux Pumpkins and Florals
Fall is one of my favorite times of year, and definitely my favorite season to decorate! I pull together a farmhouse cottage look in my entryway with simple fall faux pumpkins and faux greens in a neutral color palette. I stick to a muted palette of greens and white, forgoing the traditional darker colors of autumn such as orange and brown. The lighter, muted color palette keeps my home looking light and fresh, even in the rainy and darker days of fall. Here is a look at how I decorate my entryway for fall with neutral faux pumpkins and florals to create a super cozy neutral fall home. My entryway…

Timepieces you will Treasure {Unique wooden watches}
Timepieces have been treasured gifts for decades, bearing special meanings unique to both the giver and the receiver. Watches can be worn everyday and offer a happy reminder of the loved one who gave it to you. It really is the perfect, endearing gift for both men and women. For some, giving a watch can be a declaration of love, telling the recipient we belong together now, and every moment forever. Or it can simply state that you are by my side always. Perhaps the watch signifies that when you are missing your partner, every minute apart they are missing you too, and time shall pass and you will be…

A Pastel & Whimsical Girls Bedroom
Unicorns and magical, pretty things fill Ashlyn’s big girl bedroom. She loves pastels, rainbows, ruffles, and everything adorable! At first, my youngest two children shared a bedroom but we knew that we wanted to give them their own space as they got older. So at age 6, Ashlyn’s bedroom became completely her own. This room is created with pastel colors of blues and pinks and uses lots of super cute Kawaii pieces of decor. Here is an updated look at Ashlyn’s pastel and whimsical girls bedroom with all the Kawaii and pastel goodies! Everything in her room is soft pastel shades of pink and blue and grey, with pops of…

Cottage Style Deck Refresh
Refreshing an outdoor space, whether it be a patio or deck, can be very costly- so when it came time to change our outdoor furniture I had to get to work finding budget friendly pieces to bring this space together. We recently posted a tutorial sharing the our DIY deck update, staining and painting it top to bottom to breathe new life into our worn out old deck. I loved the finished deck, but not our furniture- it wasn’t quite right for my family. Outdoor living is both fun and beautiful and important to my family, so I wanted to update the space to better meet our needs. I started…

House beds are trending right now for toddlers and kids because they work with Montessori style bedrooms, and are so easy to DIY! Arlo is a super active little boy who is always playing, climbing, and exploring, and we love Montessori style toys and play spaces for him that encourage his imagination.
