In today’s tour, we’re visiting the keeping room, the breakfast nook and mudroom. Let’s get started, shall we?

CHRISTMAS HOME TOUR | PART ONE
Well, friends. I tried but I simply couldn’t wait any longer to share my Christmas home tour. Top to bottom, our home is all decked out for the holidays and it’s been that way for a couple of weeks now. Since we’re still relatively new to this house I find that decorating for any season… Continue reading CHRISTMAS HOME TOUR | PART ONE
HOW TO ADD TEXTURE TO A CASUAL TABLE SETTING
This post is sponsored by Wayfair. I was compensated to share my ideas with you. I think it’s safe to say that we’ve officially entered entertaining season. Whether it’s a fancy holiday meal or a casual dinner party with friends, when people gather, they tend to gather around a table of one sort another. And… Continue reading HOW TO ADD TEXTURE TO A CASUAL TABLE SETTING
FIVE THINGS YOU NEED FOR FALL PORCH DECOR
If you’ve seen my fall house tour, it will come as no surprise to you that I don’t mess around when it comes to autumn decor. What might surprise you is that I don’t stop inside the house; decorating the porch for fall is just as fun — if not more so — as decorating… Continue reading FIVE THINGS YOU NEED FOR FALL PORCH DECOR
Farmhouse inspired great room tour
It has been nearly three months since we closed on this house. These three months have been packed solidly full of hustle and bustle. Not only are trying to get the rooms of our home put together, but we’re trying to do so while simultaneously contending with school schedules, soccer schedules and, oh yeah, the… Continue reading Farmhouse inspired great room tour
The perfect spring porch
What’s your season? Some of us live for summer. Others can’t resist the twinkle of holiday lights and are easily won over by winter. I’m a fall girl myself but if I had to pick a runner-up, it would most assuredly be spring. This year has me especially smitten because after a year of living… Continue reading The perfect spring porch
First peek at the new house
Wow. What a month it has been. There’s nothing quite like a cross-country relocation and the subsequent settling into a new home to remind one of one’s age. Thirty-eight isn’t old but it feels that way when it wakes up after three long days of hauling boxes and furniture up and down three flights of… Continue reading First peek at the new house
DIY | Rustic winter wooden pallet sign
Last week we were in Huntsville to check the new home construction progress. During our stay, much of the Tennessee valley received the most beautiful blanket of snow. It was unfortunate timing for us seeing as how it occurred on our travel day and we were left with no choice but to drive two hours… Continue reading DIY | Rustic winter wooden pallet sign

Here are a few of… Continue reading Farmhouse-style great room inspiration and ideas
Farmhouse kitchen inspiration and ideas
Progress on our house in Alabama has finally started to gain some momentum. It’s so fun to get texted photos from our real estate agent. Each new round of pictures show a ton of changes! Our cabinetry went in last week. With its addition, I really feel like it’s starting to look like an actual… Continue reading Farmhouse kitchen inspiration and ideas
Farmhouse style dining room ideas and inspiration
Remember how–last year–I said that we were moving to Alabama? Well, here it is 2016 and we haven’t gone anywhere yet. It’s not that we are dragging our feet on the move; we most certainly are not! The problem is that the builder is not making as much headway on our new construction home as… Continue reading Farmhouse style dining room ideas and inspiration
Let’s talk lighting
There is exciting news on the home building front, my friends. That is: our lighting choices have been officially recorded! Admittedly that news isn’t as exciting as, say, the house has been framed (it hasn’t) or the sheetrock is up (it’s not), but exciting nonetheless. Exciting because I kid you not when I tell you… Continue reading Let’s talk lighting
