get the look

layered bedside lighting


lately

The thing I was most excited about this week was finding this vintage patterned sectional on Facebook Marketplace for $200. I just couldn’t pass it up! I immediately started dreaming of designing a room around it one day – can’t you just imagine it in a room with rich walls and layered patterns? Someday…


After living with open shelving in the kitchen for over a year, I’ve decided I will probably always have some kind of shelving – whether it be for dishes, cookbooks or special serving dishes – in my kitchen. I love easily reaching for plates or mugs when we need them and it definitely adds more personality and warmth than upper cabinets would.

I get asked often where we bought these shelves, and Ty actually made them; we needed a custom size and wanted to tie the brackets into the studs do that we knew could hold a good amount of weight. If you’re in the market for floating shelves, but don’t want to go fully custom, Shelfology is a great place to start:

I shared these little nightstands I ordered for our bedroom this week and you all loved them! They’re a pretty shape, come in a few different colors and are super affordable. Click the link to shop!

3-Drawer Nightstand

We’re slowing chipping away at our bathroom renovationvfor the One Room Challenge, and this week I worked on choosing paint colors for the vanity and trim. I’m still not 100% sure which color I want to go with, but I’m leaning toward the far left – Benjamin Moore Gray Husky. You can read about this week’s progress and get info on our vanity sconces from yesterdays post!

ORC Week 4 Update

Madewell is having their 30% off $200 sale right now. I like to buy my denim and statement jackets & shoes from there, so this sale is always a great one to shop for investment pieces. I’m wanting to try their perfect vintage jeans along with my go-to black skinnies, and always have my eye on their winter coats:


Happy Friday, friends!

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!

There is a beauty and ease that comes with life by There is a beauty and ease that comes with life by the sea, whether it be on northern or southern shores. Seashells are a quintessential beauty that are worn by living creatures, eventually discarded for us to enjoy or broken down to become one with the earth. They’re a reminder of the beauty of life and how powerful nature can be. And because of that, I think they’re a perfect addition to any room – no matter where you live!

We started planning and renovating this space abou We started planning and renovating this space about two years ago and I have a few takeaways now that we’ve lived with it:
- so glad we fit as much shelving into this space as possible
- storing our microwave in here is 👌
- I toyed with the idea of adding an ice maker in here…kinda wish I would have
- the wallpaper was the best splurge
- removing walls isn’t always the answer (we split a hallway in two to create this space)

You can read all about this project on the blog! Link in bio 🫶
