shopping HomeGoods, Marshalls & TJ Maxx

Shopping online through HomeGoods, Marshalls or TJ Maxx is one of my favorite ways to score deals on quality home items or clothing. It’s especially great for holiday decor – when shopping seasonal items, it’s nice to save where you can while still dressing up your house for the holidays. Over the years I’ve collected ornaments, Christmas trees and throw blankets that I love to pull out once the weather turns. I linked a bunch of items below to shop that I think will look for years to come!


lately

We recently refinished our countertops in the kitchen and I shared the process + an honest review of whether I would use them in a kitchen again. If you’ve ever considered installing butcher block this post is worth a read:

an honest review of our butcher block countertops

Trick or treat happened in our small town last week and we took our zookeeper, policewoman and her bandit around our neighborhood. It’s been fun to have a little bit of spook in our house but I’m ready to clear out the cobwebs and look towards Thanksgiving & Christmas!


what I’m loving lately

I found these ceramic lamps on Etsy a few months ago and I’ve been obsessed. They’re made out of vintage vases and pots, fit with brass lamp parts and topped with the perfect conical shade. Here’s a few I’ve had my eye on:


Happy Friday!

Come with me as I work on giving Cohen’s room a Come with me as I work on giving Cohen’s room a little refresh! He was in need of a nice, flat weave rug (because Legos) and I was really excited to get this Henley rug by @loloirugs x @joannagaines @magnolia from their latest collab. I have these rugs all over my house because I seriously love them and they wear so well! More to come on this little room of his.

Uncover the back patio with me! After days of rain Uncover the back patio with me! After days of rain it’s time to let the furniture breathe a bit and open everything up to the sun. With part of our patio being pea gravel, the easiest way to get loose stones back where they belong is with our leaf blower - we recently topped it off with more gravel so it’s looking extra plush lately. You will find me here tonight pretending that it’s already the weekend 🥂

A moment for my latest @facebook marketplace find A moment for my latest @facebook marketplace find 🫶 this wrought iron chaise for $50 + new cushion from @walmart is going to my mvp this summer. I rearranged the back patio a bit and I’m loving how it feels. Just a little reminder that it doesn’t take big bucks or an overhaul for something to feel fresh again!
