I found these @target recently and knew I could use them!

I much prefer LED tapers over the real thing in some cases because well… kids throw toys and things can catch fire. 😑 I’ll take the look of tapers on for a cozy atmosphere over none at all.

New shower curtain FTW. 🙌🏼

Sundayyyyy.

Summer for my boys is coming very fast. I’m already planning on how to fill our days to make it both fun and full of growth. One thing I’m going to implement into our days is the 20 minute candle.

It’s basically a candle that is lit for— you guessed it— 20 minutes before it dies out. We’ll have Bible/prayer time during this time together. 🙏🏼 I’m so excited about it because my boys just loooove doing things together and I just know they’ll be excited to take turns lighting it.

Have you started planning?

Found these pillow covers online and knew they’d fit perfectly with my green chairs. 🥹

When I placed them over my pillows, I was pleased with the overall aesthetic. Another win!

Did you all take spring break off? When is your spring break?

Because I tend to be on my feet a lot for consultations and product sourcing and even as a mom, my shoes need to be comfortable!

I’m so happy I found some sneakers that are both comfortable and stylish. Crazy how being a designer tends to flow into other areas like my wardrobe. 👗

Seriously though… these are like walking with slippers on. 😍

I don’t ever go to Walmart, and the reason is…

I don’t like their lighting. It drives me nuts. 🤣🫣 Ok there. Needless to say, I found these online and the price tag was so crazy I added them to cart before it changed. 😅

They added the height I needed for these little bushes by my giant front doors. 🙌🏼 They’re currently out of stock, but save them and get alerted for when they’re back because they’re soooo worth it!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

When I saw these, I knew they were the ones. 🫶🏼

I needed lighting that was unique and inexpensive because… growing boys that constantly outgrew stuff! The price of these was shocking and the look was just what I was hoping for! Installation was a breeze, and I am happy they use rechargeable bulbs. 💡

Sneakers that feel like slippers!

#LTKActive #LTKBeauty

The vision is everything to a space that needs to be redone. ✨

I knew we needed blue and something a little more mature. My kids had outgrown their space already. (Can time slow down!?)

It all came together with the right shades and rug like a cherry and whipped cream over cake. (Not ice cream, which I don’t like. 😂)

Swipe to see before!

#LTKmomlife #LTKstorytime #LTKKids

Easy peasy. 🙌🏼

Idk where I saw this, but it is genius. With these bulbs, you can literally use anything to make a lamp. Think about it! 😍

I finally found a place for my thrifted mini shades. 🥹

Little changes make a big difference! 😍

I KNOW you’ve heard this before, but I repeat it because it’s TRUE! You don’t need to go all out. You just need to swap out some details and voila. Big difference. This room feels more grown up and calmer for the boys to relax and play in. We’re loving it again!

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKHome

My skincare routine!

I use these morning and night. ❤️

Oliveda isn’t part of LTK nor is my facial soap— Charcoal Soap from Lush, but I highly recommend them as well!

Happy shopping!

Velvet has my heart. ♥️

#LTKmomlife #LTKootd #LTKselfcare

I love velvet, by my cats’ fur doesn’t!

Honestly, it doesn’t change a thing for me because I love velvet anyway and my cats are with me until the Lord calls them home. Thankfully this little tool has made cleaning a total breeze. 🥹 I even used it to clean some lampshades recently because Sugar’s fur is so dang long that it lands everywhere. 😂

I can’t stand recharging things, so the fact that I can use it without swapping batteries or charging it was a major plus. If you’ve got pets or just lint, I highly recommend this little tool!

It’s sooooo important to trim your wicks!

Almost 100% of the houses I’ve been to have candles burning with untrimmed wicks. I make it a point to tell whoever’s house I’m at why trims needs to be trimmed. Here is why you need to do this:
• clean burn (notice the black around your candles? That’s NOT clean burning. This can also end up in your lungs.)
• longer lasting (big flames = more heat = candle running out quickly)
• controlled flame (less risk of a fire)
• better scent (less of a burning smell)

You can buy a wick trimmer anywhere, but here are my faves.

I took a chance on these plates from Target, and I’m so happy I did!

They had low reviews because of the shipping. Nothing new. lol People received theirs broken, so I was anticipating they’d arrive in pieces. They came whole. 🥹

I had wanted plates for my birthday, but couldn’t find some I truly liked. When I finally did, they arrived discolored and Aidric was like, “A designer shouldn’t own these.” 😂 He was right.

I’m glad I waited, because these released a little while after and now were my Christmas gift. 🎁

#LTKmomlife #LTKGiftGuide #LTKHome

I love this view. 😍

#LTKHome #LTKHoliday

These shades, guys!! 🥹

They made a HUGE difference in the way the room looks! The window treatments look more intentional and high-end while they looked flat before.

I’m so happy I decided to try a new color!

#LTKHoliday #LTKHome

When your windows start reflecting your creativity. ♥️

These Birkin Velvet Roman Shades in Burgundy from @twopagescurtains leveled up this room! They paired seamlessly with the Sara Le Bronze Curtains. The added rich, velvet texture made it feel so much cozier, welcoming, and even festive for this season. I love the blackout option for guests who want to sleep in. 🛌

Don’t you think they made this room shine!?

The tree takes the cake!

This @kingofchristmas tree is so lovely and fit perfectly in this corner! As much as I’ve decorated around it, it still steals the entire show. That’s how it’s supposed to be right? 😅

#LTKHoliday #LTKHome #LTKStyleTip

Easy switcheroo? Swap out your artwork.

I found ALREADY PRINTED ARTWORK as a bundle and it was one of the easiest buys and updates ever. It also makes a big difference in the mood you set for the holidays with the details. 🎄

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKHoliday #LTKHome

Some Sunday Stills…

Decorating and design for me is so much fun, but I make sure to never eclipse the purpose behind it all. Our faith carries us through every season and it’s what sustains us through them all. ❤️

Behold, the most realistic cedar stems!!

I like to invest in something different every year. Otherwise, it would be wayyyy too much for us what with my full head of ideas. 😂 This year, I decided to get some pretty stems for my island.

When I’m able to, @afloral is where I turn. They have the best selection of realistic looking stems. And noooo this isn’t sponsored in any way. 😆

Today’s shoes!

Love how chic, girly, and youthful these are. 🥹

#LTKGiftGuide #LTKBeauty #LTKShoeCrush

Our favorite little novelty ever.

#LTKHoliday #LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKSeasonal

Finally a tree that has BOTH white and colorful lights!! 🙌🏼 #gifted

@kingofchristmas solved a problem we had in our household. I loooooove white lights but the boys love colors. We can be alternating between both now!

And yes! The boys were super excited to see all the colors which makes this mom beyond proud.

For reference, this is a 9 foot tree! And I love that it’s slim but not sooo thin like a pencil tree. It fit perfectly in its yearly spot.

With the cooling weather, we’ve been enjoying our outdoor space a lot more! ❤️

I love the sound of our boys playing on the swings, bouncing a basketball, and just laughing and goofing around. Our family is so important to us.

Have you been enjoying your outdoor space more?

In my velvet era. ✨

Seriously, this material has my heart right now. Can I dress my husband in velvet!? 😂

These have been so amazing for cuddling with a blanket and reading. 🥹 Turn on a candle and grab a warm cup of coffee and voila. Instant relaxation.

#LTKHome #LTKStyleTip

Today’s Birdies. ❤️

#LTKShoeCrush #LTKStyleTip

It was time. 🥹

Or wasn’t it? These gorgeous lamps have now made their home in my bedroom. I love how they tie in all the warm colors to create a cozy atmosphere. At night, they provide a warm light as well with the shape of their shades. It’s perfect for that ambient lighting and cuddling, which is my absolute favorite part of every day with my bestest of friends. ❤️
