A soft blue cottage-inspired sitting room design using Target finds — but styled with a designer eye.

I pulled together striped chairs, semi-sheer curtains, woven textures, a soft patterned rug, a skirted ottoman, and warm neutral accents to create a collected bay window moment that feels custom without the custom price tag.

Target has a great selection for designers to create beautiful spaces at an affordable budget.

So many requests for this bed! It’s worked wonderfully-had it for 2 years with no issues. It’s been a great way to have an office and guest room in one!

The things I’ve loved.

#LTKHome

My favorite bedroom details so far.

#LTKHome

The blue plaid continues! I told yall I love pumpkins. I also love our dining chairs. 10/10 would buy again!

#LTKHome

It’s been maybe 5 months since I installed these and I’ve only recharged them once. I do recommend screwing them in. The peel n stick failed eventually for both the sconces. Still love them!

#LTKHome

I’ve had it for years now and it’s still
So plush underfoot. And it’s by my garage door so it’s seeing lots of traffic. Highly recommend.
Can’t go wrong with a loloi rug!

#LTKHome

I can’t believe I haven’t thought of bringing blue into my fall decor yet! But I love the way it’s working.
Balancing light blue plaid pillows and throws with rust and taupe browns still says fall to me.
My affinity for French flair in my decor carries true in my dining chairs and plaid light blue….as well as the rustic light wood tones.

#LTKHome

These blue hydrangeas tie in my blue pillow covers and my faux leather touches reference the brown leaves a fall.

#LTKHome

I love these black print pillow covers for fall! They have the perfect subtle touches of brown and blue.

#LTKHome

I fell in love with these beige maple leaves a while ago. To me if the fall branches in my home don’t remind me of the golden leaves of Lothlorien then I’m doing something wrong. 😆

I think the fall garland on the mantle is beautiful, but I’m not willing to garland my mantle for four months of the year. For fall I’m much prefer a contained display of festivity. One that doesn’t threaten collapse or being pulled down by a child. That’s why this bowl is such an amazing find. It’s rustic, so it immediately speaks to fall, and elevate my inexpensive and simplistic fall decor and it stretches a good distance on my mantle, giving it a focal piece without overwhelming the space.. I love it!

I was only “browsing”… and then Labor Day sales + restocks started getting dangerous. 😂

These are the home finds that made me stop—some are major markdowns, some are finally back in stock, and some I already own and would absolutely buy again.

Save this before the good stuff disappears, because I have a feeling a few of these won’t stick around.

These are the furniture fines. I keep returning back to for their beautiful style, colors and popularity. Several of these have been out of stock for months and they’re just now coming back.

In break from tradition, I’m editing my fall console table this year. Maximizing simplicity over enthusiasm for all things fall.
And I’ve enhanced my table some as well-painted the corbels, added wood covers with wood decals to the boxes and added some ottomans. I’m considering adding a piano hinged door to the opening to hide my boxes but that might be a later project.
I also finally finished my deer artwork featured here on my table. If you love this look for fall, don’t worry, I found some similar for you. Happy Fall y’all!

#LTKHome

Honestly, I’m a little mad that I didn’t try this sooner! I think it turned out so well! And the hardest part was really taping, but next time I think I will do the glass protecting jelly that I used on the bottom row of pains as that seem to be a little bit faster. But as far as process went, I did the yellow base let that dry and it dried super fast then I went over it with a brown color and use the wood rocking tool immediately after and worked my way around the mirror doing that. Then I went back over with some white touches with my fan brush to give it a weathered look.

Never underestimate the power of a little paint!

I did the scrolling so you don’t have to. 😉 I pulled the fall home finds people are actually buying right now—and filtered them through my designer lens for the ones that look more expensive than they are.

There are some REALLY good affordable finds in here, and a few of the bestsellers surprised me. If you’ve been wanting to make your home feel a little more like fall without changing your home’s personality to orange, start here.

Prices + inventory can change quickly, so grab your favorites while they’re still available.

If you’re looking for a beautiful medium patterned, subtle coastal wallpaper, you can’t go wrong with this one! It’s peel and stick, which means no extra prep! I love the difference it made in my first floor bathroom!

Sometimes the best window hardware is one that disappears completely. I love how this window turned out! And it only took some drilling and screws to attach the track, which came with its own connectors and rollers. You do have to cut the track to size-I had to involve my husband for that part. But it was well worth it!

My fall entryway 2026.
Trying out a new decor setting on my entry table. You can’t ever go wrong with maple stems, a ruffle bowl and some art. I actually drew the deer art myself but I’ve found some similar if you like deer as much as me.

I got tired of walking into my boy’s bedroom and finding the comforter halfway on the floor every morning. 😅

So instead of fighting the same battle, I sized WAY up, wrapped the oversized comforter under the mattress, and basically made the bed indestructible.

Now he can just pull the covers back up instead of remaking the entire thing from scratch. Bed-making = so much easier.

I got completely catfished by a pair of “cream” double gourd lamps that showed up looking straight-up butter yellow. 😅

I’m refreshing our bedroom on a budget, so instead of settling, I found a much better option with the proportions, crackle finish, and actual creamy color I wanted.

These are the ones I’d buy (and did buy) instead.

I knew exactly how I wanted this bed to look… apparently finding all the pieces to make it happen was the problem. 😂

11 orders, 8 returns, 7 tablecloths, 2 broken sewing-machine needles and one very helpful mom later, I FINALLY got the soft, layered, expensive-looking bed I had in my head—without buying anything designer…

If you’re shopping for ivory bedding, linen-look headboards, bedroom lamps or affordable designer-looking bedroom decor, learn from my return-line research. 😂

If no one can see the stain anymore… is it really even there? 😂

I gave my upholstered headboard a whole new look with a $30 linen-look tablecloth instead of replacing the bed. Such an easy, budget-friendly way to refresh a bedroom when you want the look of a new upholstered bed without the price tag.

Linked the tablecloth + bedroom finds I’m using for this refresh. 🤍

Apparently getting the back-to-school list was all it took for me to look around and realize summer has been LIVING in this house. 😂

Now I’m in full reset mode—cleaning, organizing, putting the outdoor chaos back together + getting our home ready for fall. These are a few of the home finds making the post-summer cleanup feel a whole lot easier.

I don’t often fall in love with art-but I did this time. ❤️

I don’t buy a lot of name brands, but Kate Spade stole my heart years ago. And I learned that when you see a bag on sale, it’s always wise to get it. Unless you don’t and you’re haunted by the fact you wished you had.
I love the deep rich brown and saddle color on this bag. So perfect for fall. ❤️

Searching for chairs can be so hard! Here’s some I found that are affordable and run the gamut from less than $100-close to $500 (still, pretty affordable!)

I’m pretty sure my husband despises my “while we’re at it…” brain game. 😂

What started as one small wallpaper project turned into a new light, a new rug, DIY lanterns, hidden hookups, a new laundry top… and about ten other side quests.

And if you’ve been here for a while… yes, the washer and dryer are FINALLY level with each other. 😂

Please tell me I’m not the only one whose brain works like this. 😅
