Making a house your home is always fun and exciting. Being able to add your style and incorporate meaningful pieces that make your home look inviting and appealing makes an ordinary space extraordinary. I was able to design each room just the way I wanted it since I had a blank canvas to start with. I […]
This year I decided to change up my tree decor. The Christmas tree is usually quite mismatched with homemade ornaments and doesn’t have a real “theme”. I was ready to try something new, and when I saw Holly Mathis’ beautiful tree last year with silhouette ornaments, it inspired me to pull the trigger! The colors […]
Join me in a mini tour of our Farmhouse Christmas cottage. Let’s start in the kitchen, since that’s where the snacks are! The main colors in this room are gray and white, so I added red. I love how fun and bright it is. This room feels very cheery, and is accented with my VERY favorite– […]

We knew we had our work cut out for us, and are thrilled with the final result! We combined the old kitchen and dining room […]
This space was empty when we started, and now it is inspired by the homeowner’s love of horses, her hometown of Charleston, SC, and beautiful patterns! Our next step is to put something on that coffee table! What would you put? What defines Southern Traditional decor? Southern Traditional decor is typically characterized by warm colors, […]
Adrienne wanted to take her new construction, cookie-cutter house and give it character and interest. We painted the wall, added an interesting piece of furniture with a splash of color, added a fantastic rug and throw pillows. The best way to decorate around a large tv is to do something interesting around it. In this […]
