The living room decor is always evolving! The new Calais Chandelier I just hung is such a showstopper and I still can't believe I found this on FBMP. I'm thinking of swapping out the mirror above the fireplace for some artwork like what I have tagged here. My fireplace mantel styling ideas are always evolving and it's fun to mix things up! I’m loving how the new curtains compliment the entire room. #livingroom #livingroomdecor #mantelstyling #fireplaceideas #interiordesign #luxurylighting

Living room decor updates. I love mixing old and new, and different styles of decor. This vintage bufffet with a more modern mirror, styled with a simple candle on some design books. And you can’t forget the tassel!

The living room is quickly becoming one of my favorite rooms in the house. While much of my living room decor was sourced secondhand, I have a few new pieces sprinkled in and I’ve managed to find some look a likes for you of the vintage goodies. #livingroomdecor #lovingroomideas #vintage #collected #interiordesign #luxury

I used to hate caulking — it always felt tedious and messy. But the truth is, it’s one of those finishing steps that can completely make or break a project. A clean bead of caulk is what separates a DIY job from a professional one.

Then I tried this little silicone caulking tool… and game over. Perfect lines, zero cleanup, no mountains of paper towels, no baby wipes, no stress.

It’s the kind of tool you use once and immediately wonder how you ever lived without it.

For the office I’m painting last so I’m using regular paintable caulk. My favorite kind is Big Stretch by @sashcoinc (same that I used for the bathroom) #diy #diyprojects #homeimprovement #caulk

Depending on the order of install for your project tintable caulk is such an amazing time saver! For the kitchen last year I painted the cabinets first, but needed to hand paint the backsplash (to get in the grooves) before I could install. Therefore I had to wait to caulk last. This saved me a step and made for a seamless look! #diy #diyprojects #homeimprovement

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKHome

You’ve probably heard of paintable caulk — but have you heard of tintable caulk?

I’m all about working smarter, not harder, especially with a large-scale renovation like a kitchen. eXact Color takes the guesswork out by letting you color match your caulk to your paint — and it couldn’t be easier.

Here’s how it works:
• Snip the caulk tube open
• Add 20 ml of your paint (measuring tool included)
• Screw the lid on and shake for 60 seconds
• Add the provided thickener
• Shake again for 60 seconds
• Wait 30 minutes
• Caulk as usual

I’ll never buy “paintable” caulk again — once you try this, you won’t either. Total game-changer. Comment SHOP to see for yourself!

Crown molding can make a room — but it can also make you want to pull your hair out if you don’t know a few key basics.

Turns out, explaining it in a quick video isn’t much easier! I tried to break down the essentials here, but if you’d rather take it step-by-step, there’s a full blog post up on AllisonSkiff.com today. It covers exactly how to measure, cut, and install crown molding like a pro — including my go-to tools, tips for perfect corners, and how to fill and finish for that seamless look.

I used classic dentil molding for my home office makeover, and I’m already obsessed with how much character it adds.

All the supplies are linked here and a full tutorial is live on AllisonSkiff.com

Have you ever installed crown molding before? Let me know what questions you still have — I’m happy to help!

Everyone loves this vintage pendant chandelier so much and I do too. Unfortunately it’s vintage so I don’t have an exact link for you but there are some close look-a-likes out there. I’ve picked a handful I’d recommend for bathroom lighting ideas.

#LTKStyleTip #LTKHome

Answering your most frequently asked questions about the primary bathroom renovation!

Paint color: Walls and trim are Jitney and the ceiling is Stirabout—both in Flat Eggshell by @farrowandball

Vanity flip: My favorite trick in the book that requires no stripping and just a light scuff! I used @retiqueitliquidwood (4 coats total) and topped it with 2 coats of Dark Walnut gel stain by @varathane The finish is to die for.

Countertop: Calacatta Fiorto marble—and the best part? I found it in the remnant section and saved a ton!

Chandelier: A special antique store find, but I’ve rounded up plenty of similar options at all price points. Comment SHOP and I’ll send them straight to your inbox.

Favorite part: Taking this space from a plain white box I used to rush through to a warm, inviting retreat full of character—all by myself.

Binge my feed to see the entire transformation!

When I spotted this odd copper piece at an estate sale, I had no clue what it was. But it felt too interesting to leave behind.

Turns out…it’s a vintage wine chiller and my new favorite party trick.

Ice in the middle, bottles around the edge, and suddenly this “weird copper thing” becomes the star of the table.

Would you have snagged it or left it behind?

This is the part of every room makeover I live for — finalizing the design!

For the home office makeover, I’ll be painting the trim before the wallpaper goes up, which means it’s decision time. Here are the five wallpaper ideas I’ve been considering:

1. Pimpernel by Morris & Co. in Brick / Olive (paired with a dusty blue)
2. Brer Rabbit by Morris & Co. in Peacock / Gold (paired with a rich brown)
3. Vintage Tapestry by Belarte Studio in Beige (paired with a soft cream)
4. Pimpernel by Morris & Co. in Bayleaf / Manilla (paired with a warm taupe)
5. Strawberry Thief by Morris & Co. in Charcoal (paired with a moody gray)

I may not know how to do everything, but I know what things cost.

Last year a handyman quoted me $670 over the phone to replace one drawer in my kitchen (without having the measurements). So naturally I decided to renovate the entire kitchen by myself. One year later and I feel like I should write that guy a thank you note.

If you want to improve your home but don't know where to start, my advice is to just start. Pick up a paint brush, change out some hardware, or buy your first power tool. Trust me - something magical is waiting on the other side of your fear!

This Thanksgiving table is all about drama and depth — layers of rich color and texture that make dinner feel like an experience. The moody blue floral wallpaper sets the backdrop, while a deep burgundy tablecloth brings contrast and warmth. I layered in a Norfolk real-touch garland, dried oranges, pine cone candles, and brass candlesticks with long tapers for a soft, glowing centerpiece. My gold flatware, striking serving spoons, and dark olive linen napkins add just enough polish. It’s proof that a bold color palette can still feel timeless.

Shop my fall table setting favorites — from the table linens to the candlelight touches.

If it’s ugly: paint it.

Last fall while I was renovating my kitchen, I decided to transform my dark speckled granite countertops into a white carrara marble finish simply by painting them! It took me three base coats of white primer, and then I added “veining” by dragging a skinny paint brush dipped in charcoal grey paint and misting it with water for a feathered effect.

But won’t they get damaged? That’s where the epoxy topcoat comes in. The epoxy adds a shine and protects the new “marble” from everyday kitchen use. I’m almost one year into using mine and they’ve been holding up great!

The countertop kits have everything you need from start to finish. Full tutorial is available on AllisonSkiff.com
