Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]

For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]

I have a killer eye when it comes to shopping. Whenever I enter any store and I mean any store I will find the diamond in the rough. Case in point, this past weekend we were shopping at Five Below and I found a something worthy of Anthropologie. I’m not sure if FiveBelow is everywhere, […]

DIY Tribal Tassel Clutch

One of my favorite parts of my English Garden tablescape is my carrot napkins! Aren’t they adorable? When I decided to make the tablescape I didn’t want to pick up a lot of new items. The only items I actually bought were the orange napkins (shockingly I didn’t already own a set) and the blue/white […]

ON THE BLOG

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.

Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.

On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
