Don’t toss those wrapping paper scraps! As you finish up any last minute wrapping, try using those leftover pieces to add a little extra dimension by folding them into strips and layering them with ribbon or bows. You can use the same paper or something totally different for a little contrast. It’s such a great use of those random pieces and adds a little something extra 🎁

Our house is really showing off tonight…looking all Christmas-y 😏 I’m trying to really soak in these final days leading up to Christmas and enjoy how festive our home feels - and just how fortunate we are! We haven’t watched a single holiday movie yet - it’s definitely time to change that! I’m thinking Home Alone might be up first. What are some of your favorite holiday movies?? ❄️

I don’t know what it is, but something about incorporating vintage / antique pieces into a space just instantly makes it feel so warm and inviting (and as a bonus, it’s just better for the environment)! I recently purchased this sideboard and mirror off Facebook marketplace, and I’m so happy with this little corner of our dining room. And that ribbon…the paper stars…all of it! That garland is really giving all the holiday feels! 🤗 ❄️

Tree. Is. Up.🎄This is your friendly reminder to seal those ribbon edges to keep them from fraying! 🙌🏽 Don’t actually touch the flame to the ribbon - just get it super close - and you’re good to go. Next year’s you will thank you! 😉

I just love this time of year! So happy to finally be putting up some holiday decor - our entryway looks so festive! I love hanging a wreath over a gallery wall, but want to avoid any visible hooks or putting holes in the wall unnecessarily, so I used the zip tie hack! What do you think? 😊🎄

This audio was just too good - I HAD TO! 😂 These little doggos (and Jason of course ha!) put up with my constant rearranging of furniture, painting and repainting in some cases, and a never ending list of projects, so they definitely needed a spot on the grid 🐶 🥰

Everyone’s decorating for the holidays and I’m

Everyone’s decorating for the holidays and I’m over here just trying to finish up this trim project in our living room 🫠🤪 This project was a great reminder that home takes time. And that’s ok! I’ve wanted to add trim to these walls since we moved in almost three years ago, and while it took us a little longer than planned to cross this one off the to-do list, it was so worth the wait!!! I am so happy with how it turned out. The walls and trim are in my go-to warm white - Whipped by @clarepaint! And this stunning sideboard from @luluandgeorgia! 🤌🏽 Now can someone help me pick out some art for this frame TV?? It’s not currently living up to its full potential sitting there all art-less 😂

Counting down the days to Halloween 🎃 🤗I got a few questions about our witch’s cauldron, so wanted to share a step-by-step tutorial! 🧙🏻‍♀️✨

Supplies:
- Large round planter (mine is 20” in diameter)
- Mister (I purchased a smaller cauldron with mister included)
- Scrap wood (to elevate the smaller cauldron inside the planter)
- Orange lights / outdoor candles (for the 🔥)

You can definitely use the smaller cauldron on its own, but putting it in the larger planter was 🤌🏽

All supplies linked in bio under ‘Shop My Instagram.’ Everything will be linked to on this post in the @shop.ltk app here: https://liketk.it/3SDpY

It took me halfway through October to get our Halloween decorations up, but better later than never 🫠 I’m an OG Hocus Pocus fan, so loving our theme this year. And peep that cauldron 🧙🏻‍♀️

I have lots to catch you up on regarding our trip to Wilmington, Vermont and our quick stop in Saratoga Springs, New York, but glad to be back home in the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia, for those not local)! We spent the day unpacking and picking out pumpkins! How cute is this roadside farm stand? 🍁

Every time I complete a project, I love looking back at ALL the projects I’ve completed in our home so far 😊 Like the entryway refresh! From painting the walls and door, to the trim, and the console table and ottomans I built - I’m so proud of this space! 😍

Still can’t believe the spring 2022 @oneroomchallenge presented by @apartmenttherapy has come to a close! And I cannot get over how much I love how this space turned out 😍 Want to see how I turned these IKEA Rast chests into these custom nightstands? Take a look! And thanks to @mydiyjournal for inspiring this DIY projects - it’s one of my all time favorites to date! 🥰

✨Bedroom Reveal✨ After 8 weeks, the @oneroomchallenge presented by @apartmenttherapy has officially come to a close! There were some bumps along the way - and supply chain issues made things interesting - but I’m so happy with how this space turned out 😍 Here’s a recap of all we accomplished in this space:

✔️Painted walls and ceiling (paint #gifted by @clarepaint)
✔️Added a ceiling medallion
✔️Installed picture molding
✔️Redid IKEA Hemnes dresser
✔️Redid existing headboard
✔️IKEA hack nightstands
✔️Made a frame for the TV
✔️Gallery wall + decor

I think that covers it 😅🤣 I so appreciate you following along these last 8 weeks, and I’m super excited to participate in another #oneroomchallenge 🥰

For Week 6 of the @oneroomchallenge sponsored by @apartmenttherapy I completely redid our existing headboard for under $75 🤯 I was inspired by a bed I’d seen for about $3,000 but I knew I could recreate the look for so much less. The headboard, the paint and trim on the walls, the ceiling color…it’s all coming together! 😍

How is it already week 5 of the @oneroomchallenge sponsored by @apartmenttherapy 😆 I’ve wanted to redo this @ikea Hemnes dresser for a long time, and I was inspired by @lonefoxhome to finally take the plunge! It’s amazing what some paint, trim, raffia cloth, and new hardware can do, amirite?!! Looove everything about how this turned out 😍

Completely missed week 4 of the One Room Challenge 🤪 but I’m back from Ireland and ready to dive back into all things #DIY this week!

Our trip to Ireland 🇮🇪 was AMAZING! From Dublin to Limerick, the Cliffs of Moher, and the Wild Atlantic Way, to Belfast and the Giant’s Causeway up north - what a breathtakingly beautiful part of the world! ☘️

Can you believe it’s already week 3 of the @oneroomchallenge sponsored by @apartmenttherapy?! It’s been a busy week installing the wall trim, but I can’t get over what a huge difference it makes in this space! The trim draws your eye up so the room instantly feels taller! I used semi-gloss trim paint by @clarepaint (#gifted) to paint the trim in the same color as the walls (Whipped) and it just never disappoints 😍 I could not be happier with how this room is coming along! And of course Lily had to join in on the fun 🐶

It’s week 2 of the @oneroomchallenge sponsored by @apartmenttherapy and we’re starting to make some serious progress! 🥳 We cleared out the primary bedroom then hit the ground running with painting! I’m over-the-moon happy with the paint colors (#gifted) from @clarepaint! A dreamy warm white on the walls (Whipped) and the perfect gray / beige (Flatiron) on the ceiling 😍 How have I never painted a ceiling until now??! And the cherry on top - the ceiling medallion painted to match the ceiling to complement our chandelier by @mymitzi. I heart ALL. THE. THINGS. 🥰
