  • Kid Friendly Homes

    More and more and I enjoy seeing kids incorporated in home decor design. Most of what you see is staged views of how a home “should” look like but what we should see is more of what real life looks like combined with good design!

    When beautiful design and real life functionality come together, it’s a beautiful thing!

    We should all strive to find that balance between beautiful and functional in a sense that fits our lifestyles, not necessarily what’s “in” trend.

    If you need a guest room and a playroom, make a guest room that can be a playroom too! Just because it needs two very different functions, doesn’t mean it can’t come together beautifully.

  • Make Your Home Yours!

    Certain days I like to say goodbye to what’s trending and hello to what my heart desires. 
    When it comes to home decor, most of us follow the trends and that’s fine, but it doesn’t hurt to do some digging around and find something that truly suits you.

    When you pick home decor based on what moves you and brings you joy, you’d be amazed at how a space can come together and create something beautiful out of something so unexpected.

    What I Think Will Stay Trending

    Trends come and go, but some seem like they stick around forever! Here are a few I predict will be sticking around for a while:

    Tile can add a raised facet to a space to help boost visual interest. in this pastel kitchen, the backsplash tile -- a miniature mosaic bordered by a raised tile -- picks up on the cabinet details and offers a focal point behind the range.:

  • Make A Small Bedroom Work

    Make A Small Bedroom Work

    With downsizing comes small rooms. If making it all fit terrifies you, don’t worry! There are some simple tips to make it work that will change the way you look at your small bedroom.

    Think outside the box. Make a larger bed work in a small room with some creativity!
    Remember that it’s just a bedroom and get rid of the extra unnecessary things. All you need is a bed, side tables, and maybe a dresser depending on storage!

    Remember this is a room where you are sleeping, not spending your day!
    For a kids room, storage is key! Kids come with a lot of miscellaneous things and a small room doesn’t leave much floor space. Make sure everything has a place.
    Add a mirror or a pop of color on one wall. Painting the whole room might make the room feel smaller so limiting it to one wall helps define the space but keep it from feeling closed in.
    It won’t be long before you hear yourself saying that a small bedroom isn’t so bad after all!

  • Let’s Gather Around the Table

    Let’s Gather Around the Table

    There has been some discussion lately on what tables are coming next. The farmhouse table has been a huge hit and stayed for quite some time, but it looks like round tables are coming back!
    For a more formal look, you would think a rectangular table would be the choice, but you might be surprised that a round table can be formal too!

    In some rooms it actually helps with the floor plan and flow of the room.
    Some rooms just weren’t made for rectangles or squares! With a round table it’s easier to get closer. You can scoot in a chair and get cozy unlike the other’s where you’d be stuck with a corner.
    They also look great in eat in kitchens!

    Even for those who like a minimal lifestyle, these give the room some character without the look of clutter.
    If you look back on trends, leather and metal are two that seem to stick around. This is a perfect look that will last through any trend. They are also pretty versatile to any space. An office, a bedroom, a living room, are all great spaces for this.
