I always say design is in the details! I recently upgraded my GFCI outlet in the powder room and absolutely love these automatic nightlights that come on and adjust with the brightness (or darkness) of the room. You can shop these and everything else in my powder room here!

Spotted this bedroom at a hotel and immediately started sourcing lookalikes for everything in it. The wicker flush mount, the rust bed runner, the scalloped velvet pillow, the Roman shade, the wall sconces with that warm amber glow. I've curated every findable piece so you can recreate this earth tone bedroom moment at home.

These tan leather double strap sandals with gold cutout hardware are a summer sandal worth investing in. The kind of shoe that elevates everything and gets better with wear.

Grandmillennial style living room with layered traditional pieces, a fringe chandelier, floral drapes, and a statement leather chair.
Perfect for anyone styling a collected, neo-traditional space with vintage charm and elevated details.

This kitchen is my favorite room to wake up to. Warm taupe cabinets, a walnut butcher block island, the best brass pendant, and all the little vintage details that make it feel collected over time. Everything I could link is linked above.

There’s something about a bathroom that actually feels considered. This one took a while to get there, but every piece — the marble vanity, the brass sconces, the antique-style fixtures — was chosen intentionally. Nothing was the default. Shop everything linked above.

Did you know you can make caulk that literally matches your paint exactly?

Most people just paint over their caulk lines and call it a day. This is better. You inject your wall paint directly into the tube, add the thickener, shake it twice, and wait 30 minutes. It’s formulated to bond with your paint, so what you end up with is a perfect match every single time.

There’s this weird shame that exists around buying used. Like somehow it means you couldn’t afford the alternative. But the people asking where my things came from aren’t asking because something looks cheap. They’re asking because nothing in my house looks like everything else.

You can’t replicate that by shopping new. You just can’t. A room full of things with a history feels completely different than a room full of things that came in a box. And once you figure that out it kind of ruins you for shopping any other way.

Estate sales, Facebook Marketplace, the occasional antique store. That’s where so many pieces in my rooms are sourced from.

Anyone else used to feel weird about it and now can’t shut up about where everything came from?

Pretty in pink in the laundry room! Paint always goes on lighter and dries darker, so I was nervous at first but trusting the process! Nothing beats a fresh coat of paint. I'm rolling on Templeton Pink by Farrow and Ball, and I already love how this color is transforming the space. Sharing all of my favorite painting supplies that help me get a smooth, professional looking finish from prep to the final coat.

If you're looking for faux hydrangeas that truly look and feel real, these are my favorite. I styled eight of the Limelight hydrangea stems from Alice Lane Home in a ruffle vase, and they make the prettiest statement. The color variation, texture, and fullness are incredibly realistic, making them an easy way to bring fresh looking greenery into your home year round without any maintenance.

Here’s an LTK caption that fits your home decor niche:

One of those pieces that instantly makes a space feel more collected. This Calcutta Viola scalloped marble tray from Alice Lane Home is as functional as it is beautiful. Style it on a coffee table, kitchen island, bathroom vanity, or dresser to elevate everyday essentials. The rich veining and scalloped edge make it feel like a true statement piece.

Just decorating “the office”! Proof that tools can be cute! 💜🎀💅💫

I finally figured out why some homes just feel cool and calm in the summer. Plants. That’s literally it.

Recently I walked into @samsclub , saw the @costafarms summer drop, and could not walk past the prices. I have genuinely paid three times more for the same plants at other stores!

I grabbed a few that caught my eye, brought them home, and started styling them throughout the house. A pair by the fireplace. The monstera in the dining room by the window where you can see the trees outside. A trailing pink and green one on an antique silver tray next to a stack of books. Every spot felt cooler and calmer the second a plant landed there.

If you’ve had bad luck with plants before, this is a low-risk way to try again. They were so lush in person, I was genuinely surprised. This drop sells out fast though, so go check your Sam’s Club now. Ps - you can have them delivered too! 🌿

Did you know there’s such a thing as an at-home dry cleaning machine? Me neither.

When I found out I could skip the dry cleaners and get the same results at home, I essentially designed an entire room around it!

Over the past month I’ve been transforming my storageless laundry room into a room that actually works, complete with floor-to-ceiling custom cabinets I built myself and my LG Styler from @loweshomeimprovement It dry cleans, sets creases in pants, and even has a little shelf that’s perfect for storing estate sale finds like decorative pillows. All you need is a standard outlet.

You can shop the Styler and everything else I’m using for my laundry room renovation right here!

I took brunch to the pool. Then I took it into the pool. No notes. 📝

Brunch at the pool, turned into brunch in the pool, turned into me deciding I live here now. And I’m blown away at this floating tray!

It’s all @wayfair and it’s all coming back in the pool with me this weekend.

A DIY paint job can look just as good as a professional one... the difference is usually just the tools.

I’ve been painting for over 20 years (my college job was painting the exterior of condos!) and in my current house I’ve tackled walls, trim, ceilings, cabinets, you name it. The number one thing I see people get wrong isn’t their technique, it’s that they’re doing every single job with the same basic brush.

Here’s my roster and what I use each tool for:

A paint edger for crisp lines with no tape. I find these best for vertical surfaces...ceilings were a little tough to get the pressure right.

A sprayer for that ultra smooth, professional finish. I used mine for my kitchen cabinets as well as my dentil crown molding which was very detailed.

A lidded paint cup so you can pick up where you left off without cleaning everything out. Usually most projects require 2 coats and a days worth of drying time. These have been so handy!

And paint pens for the touch-ups that would otherwise require breaking out the whole setup again.

These aren’t fancy, they’re just the right tools for the right job.

Whether you’re the person who genuinely enjoys a fresh coat of paint or the one who just wants it finished without the chaos, this tool is for you.

I’ve painted enough rooms in this house to have strong opinions about what works and this is the one thing I wish I’d had from the start. It cut my time in half, gave me an even, smooth finish and the thing i didn’t expect — no splatter. Not on the floor, not on the trim, not on me.

If you have a project coming up, save yourself the mess.

Making a trophy case for my trophies: my vintage Lenox Garden spice set! #DremelPartner

My favorite FBMP find deserved something better than basic, so I teamed up with @dremel to create this custom vintage spice rack.

#BISSELLpartner The renovation tax is real and it will take over your entire home if you let it.
Mid-project I am a human pig pen. In and out all day, tracking every surface I’ve touched directly onto my floors. I don’t have the bandwidth to vacuum and then mop on top of everything else I’m doing, so I stopped doing it two separate ways.

The BISSELL CrossWave Turbo does both at the same time, allowing me to make one pass and switch surfaces with the push of a button. And my favorite part? It cleans itself afterwards! Working smarter, not harder, so I can stay focused on the actual build.

The best little compact tool that packs a punch! The Dremel portable saw station is truly a jack of all trades and it packs up nice and neat when done! #diy #homeimprovement #diyprojects #beginnerfriendly

If you’re removing baseboards grab one of these pry tools instead of an actual pry bar. It will save your drywall and make it a bit easier than it would be otherwise!

This transformation is going to be 🔥

This laundry room has made my skin crawl for 8 years. My peel & stick tiles and popcorn ceiling removal were basically putting lipstick on a pig, and I’ve been living with it half finished for years.

Now it’s finally getting what it deserves.

I’m adding the appliance of my dreams: an at-home dry cleaning machine. But I couldn’t put baby in the corner, so I thought “let’s build floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and really blow this out!” Fun fact: I’ve never built anything 3D in my life before.

The goal is a laundry room that feels warm, elevated, and in sync with the rest of the house. Not just a place to do laundry but a command center designed for how I actually live.

This room has been begging to leave the 90s. Follow along to see if I can pull this off!
