Latest & Greatest: My Favorite Things From This Week

April 8, 2025

designing with kids

Loloi launched a new collab with Rifle Paper Co. this week and the girls had the chance to pick a rug for their room from the new collection. One glance at my house and you know this is quite the shock of color – but I love it so much for them! They immediately were pointing out the butterflies and flowers that they liked. It got me thinking about kids’ rooms and how we design them: who remembers their childhood room growing up? Were you confined to decorating it a certain way, or did you have free reign? I remember when I got the chance to choose my own wallpaper for my room and I loved it. Even if our kids’ choices are a bit cringe (to us), isn’t that always a step in the creative process and finding your personal style? My kids are always noticing what I am working on and, in turn, wanting to make more creative decisions on their own. I’m excited to let them take the lead a little more when choosing pieces for their rooms and seeing where it takes them.

The sconces in the dining room are up! Ty finished them up yesterday and I am so happy with how they turned out. I’m very into the modern shape paired with everything else in this room. The corner vignette with the pedestal is my favorite!

While searching for new hand towels for our bathrooms, I came across these cutie scalloped trim towels at TJ Maxx. Of course that wasn’t the only thing I ordered. I’m really into cotton and poplin for summer (cannot wait to try on that long sleeve romper) and love the classic quilted pattern of this shoulder bag. I also linked the H&M blue light glasses I shared in stories.


That’s all for this week!

Our days are numbered in this little house of ours Our days are numbered in this little house of ours 🥺 all of the house showings, packing and move prep has me donating items + bringing in a few new things that needed a refresh. I added a new set of bedding to our room from @onequince it feels so luxurious but is also very affordable. I’ve shopped @onequince for a few years now and I’ve never been disappointed! We have their bamboo sheets and European linen duvet on our bed in the color Sand - the color feels so rich and beautiful in person. The duvet also comes in a micro stripe that I have my eye on…maybe for the new house! #QuincePartner

I have a few iron obelisks but I wanted to make some that felt a little more wild and organic; this was a super cheap project and I love how they turned out! You could even use branches from around your yard. Just hot glue and cover any joints with twine. Instant charm 🫶

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)
