Aside from the nursery, Chris and I didn’t touch any of the rooms in our house before we moved in. The whole house (except the laundry room and living room) were my least favorite color… beige. Unfortunately, we don’t have a ton of free time to paint or make the changes I want, so I […]

Hygge Favorites
If I got to choose the word of the year for 2016, it would be hygge. I think I paid closer attention to the rise of the idea of hygge since Chris and I are planning a trip to Denmark this spring/summer. Don’t know what I’m talking about? Get caught up here. The idea of […]
Home Office Inspiration // His & Hers
Chris and I are just about to approach our first home anniversary. It has been so awesome to move into a proper three-bedroom home vs our small rentals. We quickly ran out of stuff to fill our space, which was a nice change. For the most part, we have completely settled in to our home […]
Buying a House // Part 2
See Part 1 here. When I last left off our our story of buying a house, we had gone through 4 houses on a Saturday in January and first saw the Grandma Party House. At this point, Chris and I had seen about a half dozen or so homes. I was trying really hard to […]
Living Room Tour
When I first stepped into my house, I immediately fell in love with the hardwood floors and the spacious living room. The walls were a green-grey and showcased the beautiful built-ins and fireplace, but the finish was glossy and poorly done. I get teased a lot but whenever I am thinking about painting a room, […]
Buying a House // part 1
As I mentioned in this post, I started looking at houses online last summer. I worked in Bexley at the time and had fallen in love, so in my attempt to see if I could afford it, I started browsing houses online. During my lunch break, I would walk up and down the streets, and […]
Instagram Home Decor Inspiration
I feel like I’ve been waiting forever to buy a house. After renting for over three years, I’m over it. Last summer I started looking at houses online in an attempt to prepare myself for what I should expect to be able to afford. It wasn’t until late this fall that I actually started to […]
Makeup Storage: Updated
It’s taken me way longer than I had anticipated but I finally have started putting together my dressing/makeup room (which I will show off in a future post). It still has a long way to go but it’s the perfect room for me to do my makeup in the morning. I swapped out my previous […]
Living Room Inspiration: Updated
I’m surprised how much my home decor tastes have changed. I would say I started off being into a more traditional look with a touch of country. I’ve always liked bright and happy and eclectic rooms have always caught my eye. At our current house, the style of the room set the tone for how […]
Coffee Tables
Since Chris and I have gotten married, I’ve been putting a lot of time and effort into making our house an adult space. We’ve bought a new couch, buffet/hutch, bar cart, and guest bed. We’ve been lucky to inherit a few pieces from family but there are still some things I’m not 100% happy with. […]
