If you follow my Snaps, you may remember back in May when I was in LA for a day and a night with a film crew and may even recognize some of the photos below… I worked with Sabrina Soto and S Squared Productions and MODE Media on a “webisode/ad” for Ace Hardware / Paint …

DIY Golden Nugget Knobs // Gold Pulls to Upgrade your Ikea Expedit
Soooo, if you’ve been following along the last few weeks, you already know that I’ve been giving my Home Office {slash dressing room – slash studio – slash everything space} a little makeover refresh. It’s a combination of needing my space in a new way, decluttering, freeing up space and letting energy flow, adding a …
DIY Gift Idea // Minimalist Framed Floating Leaves & Flowers
I can’t imagine this is the first time I’ve seen something like this, but it feels new somehow with the bright green leaves and florals floating between glass suspended in beautiful frames. I love the blank space in between that will allow your wall to show through and would look gorgeous alone, in a group …

DIY // How to Make Tassels & Upgrade Your Boho Bamboo Shades
The Beachy Blues Guest Room is one of my favorite rooms in our house. It’s so relaxing that I use it frequently for meditating and may or may not sneak under the covers for some shut eye on nights I can’t seem to sleep anywhere else in the house like when the puppies are snoring …

Brass sea urchins, sometimes referred to as starbursts, are standard in many Mid-Century Modern design & sculptural art pieces.

DIY Fancy Sequined Hangers for Kids or Adults
According to my mom, my niece Delilah {who’s 4-1/2 years old now} is obsessed with putting on mini fashion shows after school, with her friend Bella… and while they alternate princess dresses “backstage” to walk down the “runway” and pose in, they sip apple juice just like the “real models” {which I can only assume …
DIY Faux Crystals with Rocks, Nail Polish, & Gold Spray Paint
With an influx of styles reminiscent of the ’70s, ’90s, as well as a return of the bohemian flair in all things decor, rocks, crystals, and gemstones are rather trendy at the moment. But they’re also really expensive. If you want the look for decor purposes and not so much for the healing quality of …
DIY Inspo | Floaty Sea Glass + Driftwood Mobile
I stumbled across these gorgeous sea glass and driftwood mobiles on Pinterest the other day and have not stopped thinking about them since. They are just so pretty and so clever and if you have access to sea glass, driftwood, & transparent nylon thread, a rather easy DIY as well. I’m not into taking money …
DIY Eames Inspired Boho Pendant Lamp -Cover- No Rewiring
Every one of the rooms upstairs as well as the long slanted hallway in our home was fitted with ugly brass “boob” ceiling lights, typical of apartments and rentals. And in a rental, I don’t mind them so much, but in my home, I can’t stand them. I’ve replaced most of them with new pendants …
DIY Gold Snake Belt & Home Decor Accent From a Toy

DIY Heart Etched Wine Glasses with Ecco Domani
I was astounded when I first learned how easy it was to etch glass a few years ago and quickly bought a small bottle of etching cream to monogram everything I owned. And then it sat there amongst my DIY craft supplies for years unused. It wasn’t until I recently partnered with Ecco Domani and …
Home // Stairwell to Garage Whimsical Makeover // Before & After
I love decorating small spaces. More specifically, I love decorating small spaces that don’t actually “need” to be decorated, like the stairwell to the garage, for instance! This is more of a utility space {for getting things down to the garage from the house and/or up from the garage into the house, you get it} …
DIY Home State Art Print – Framed
Today’s DIY is by Michele Redmon ~ And I love it! Can’t wait to try it! It’s ironic that I should be the one to do this project, since I was always so eager to leave my home state. But as Dorothy said, “There’s no place like home.” You can hate it, leave it, but …
