Happy Weekend

Happy Friday!  I'm checking out for the weekend since I'll be here...



Go on... feel a little jealous...

I'll be in Tahoe for one of my best friend's bachelorette parties - going boating on the lake, soaking up lots of sun (and margaritas) and celebrating the impending end of her "single" life...

Happy Weekend!

DIY Art: Inverted Arrows

Resim
Hey guys!  Hope you're having an awesome week, and for those in the Bay Area, are you all loving this cold weather that came in as much as I am??  Cozy sweaters at last! Last week, I'd posted about a DIY art project , and I wanted to continue talking about this topic today.  As I'd mentioned, buying art can be expensive, but making your own art can be really cost effective, fun, and dare I say it... easy.    No more blank boring walls people - here's another simple DIY art project to try out... Source I saw this vignette, and almost died.  That chair (from West Elm)... love it.  The mid-century dresser... so pretty.  And that painting??  The inverted arrows???  A blown up, modern take on my favorite chevron print?????  I'm all over it! This DIY painting hardly needs explanation, because all you need is some painters tape and the ability to measure the halfway points on the canvas... if you don't have a single "artistic" bone in your...

Inspiration to Reality: Classic, White Living Space

Resim
I haven't done a design board in a while and it's time to get those creative juices flowing again! This living room (from Houzz) is pretty much the stuff my dreams are made of... Traditional Living Room by Barrie Interior Designers & Decorators Staples Design Group Open concept.  Neutral Furniture. Classic details. Contemporary lighting and accessories. Worn natural woods.  It's love. I put together an inspiration board to get the look (for likely A LOT less than this room cost)... take a peek: That sofa is actually one of the ones we'd been considering from Pottery Barn - the Carlisle Couch with it's deep feather stuffed  seat cushions and pretty turned legs.  It's not cheap, but it's the core of the room! To balance out the cost of the sofa, everything else is a bargain find - that rug from RugsUSA is just $1000 right now (with the 60% off discount) for an 8x10' - great price. I love the look of the grain sack throw pillows, and the carved wood c...

Bedroom Design Board - an Emily Henderson Knock-off

Resim
Emily Henderson is a design goddess.   She just posted this bedroom yesterday morning, and of the people I follow on Pinterest, I saw this room pinned, and re-pinned by about 10 different friends (and when I say friends, I mean for the most part random Pinterest "friends"). Anyway, this room is SO SIMPLE, but so lovely, so I just had to come up with an affordable version for the rest of us to mercilessly copy. Source I love that everything in the room is light and bright, letting the headboard take center stage.  SO GOOD. The chandelier MAKES this room, and so I kept the original chandelier in my inspiration.  It's actually quite affordable from Shades of Light - if you're ever in the market for a chandelier you'll see that they can run up the cost quickly. With the bedding, the headboard, the lamps, the nightstands, and decorative pillow, we're talking about an entire room makeover for well under $1000. Here's my own version... Where to Buy:    1.  Navy ...
