CHOOSING ART THAT WILL GROW WITH YOUR CHILD
This is a sponsored post from Minted. All views and opinions expressed in the post are my own and no other compensation was provided. A nursery is a child’s first room. It’s the one room in the house that will be filled with emotion. When we moved last month, leaving Olive’s nursery was the […]
Whimsy Neutral Boy Nursery | If I Had a Boy
I definitely think I’ve found my passion, my sweet spot. Nurseries and Kid’s Rooms Designing Olive’s nursery was my favorite room I’ve ever done. I loved that I could add pops of color and quirky elements without it being too weird. (Not that I’m opposed to weird in any room.) I saw it as an […]
How to Shop for Affordable Lamps
The right lighting can add an extra dimension of design in any room. You don’t want to solely rely on your overhead light to create the ambiance of a cozy space. Implementing lamps of all shapes and sizes can do wonders in creating the right mood in any space. I probably have 10-15 lamps in […]
Bathroom Runners | Thinking Outside the Design Box
There are certain rooms or corners in our home that we all neglect. Whether it’s the guest bedroom, that corner in your dining room that collects everything that you will “eventually get to”, or your own bedroom, we all have those areas that could use a little refresh.

Modern Boho Spring Decor
Whether you’re a holiday decorator, seasonal decorator, or both, your decor should remain consistent with the standard style of your home throughout the year. For example, I would describe my home as being mostly modern bohemian with vintage flares. I like to incorporate natural wood elements, lots of plants, mixed textures, passed down pieces, and gold.
