There is one thing about my house that I don’t particularly love… and it’s that I don’t have a formal entryway. My front door is next to my fireplace, right in my living room. You just walk right in. If I could extend the area and add on an entryway area, I would. And maybe …
I’ve FINALLY gotten a few leafy plants to survive in this corner of my living room!!! The only thing that really works decor-wise in this corner is a plant… a LARGE plant… or a hanging chair, but a plant is easier. However… very few plants enjoy this corner long enough to survive the winter due …
Growing up and living in Los Angeles with hundreds of restaurants and food options just minutes away, eating out or delivery dinners were the norm, but since moving up to the mountains, where our choices have diminished, we actually use our kitchen and eat in nearly every day of the week now, which I love. …
Our house is never done. I have ideas and thoughts about how it “should” look and how to make it better and they are never-ending and forever swirling… you’re probably the same 🙂 But for now, this is what our living room looks like. And I am content… for now. It’s a good thing though, …
Follow me on Instagram to see these in real time. Come back here every Sunday for all the details. My mom drove up for a quick visit last weekend and brought approximately 10 pairs of perfectly distressed and ripped up Levi’s 501 jeans for me. Some belonged to my brother, and fit a little loose, …
I randomly happened upon these agate knobs and handles at West Elm the other day and instantly fell in love! I generally won’t drop $14 on a single knob, because WHAT!??!, however, these were just the perfect addition to give our upstairs hallway cabinets a little more style and I couldn’t pass them up. I …
Follow me on Instagram to see these in real time. Come back here every Sunday for all the details. After a year of using two shelves pushed together as a mock coffee table, I finally found this Beaumont Coffee Table at Joss & Main that fit the space perfectly and was well within the budget …
Follow me on Instagram to see these in real time. Come back here every Sunday for all the details. My favorite corner of the living room at the moment is right here… usually this chair is on the other side, next to the fireplace, but the Christmas tree is in its spot right now. I’ve …
My living room/great room {I never know just how to refer to it really} is an ongoing project of decorating and redecorating, as many of the rooms in your homes probably are as well. It’s just never complete and never quite right and now that it’s Summer, my winter-warm accents seem too heavy. The Summer …
I recently {and finally} moved a few items around in our living room/great room and have an open corner that is just screaming for a bright green, large leafed and substantial indoor tree. Back in LA, I’d always opt for large palms or Banana Leaf trees for indoors, but I’m not exactly sure a palm …
Our house is situated on two lanes… with exterior doors on both… and therefore it isn’t quite sure which to call the front door and which to call the back. It doesn’t really matter because we don’t have a postal delivery service here, but go and pick up our mail and packages in the Village …
Our new sectional sofa finally arrived over the weekend {YAY!} and we are so excited to finally have a new and comfortable couch after living with one lacking that most important element, for the last 8 years. However, the squared angle of it has given me new challenges to work with in this very long …
I’ve been dying to share photos of our new house with you but as you can imagine, we’re still unpacking and not even close to finished decorating. However, the living room is the closest space to looking livable at the moment, so I thought I’d start there. It’s a sort-of great room actually, where the …
It occurred to me that I never posted photos of our complete living room in our last house… mostly because I felt like it was never complete. But since I’ll be referencing some of the furniture in upcoming posts and using it in our new house in Lake Arrowhead, I thought I’d finally gather up …
Just a few new things around the house that I’m loving. My Suck UK 1 Gun Ceramic Wall Vase has become a current obsession …mainly trying to keep a fresh flower in. Though I don’t really mind the wilted garden rose that you see in it now. It’s almost like the gun killed it, lol, …
