Watercolor note cards! Best weekend project for tweens or teens. I have been working on watercolors each weekend while football is on. It’s so much better for your brain than double screening on the iPad and keeps your hands and mind busy! Also, linking the workbooks, which are great for beginners and the paint set so you can gift them to tweens, teens, best friends and aging parents!

OUTDOOR TV watching is my new favorite hobby! It’s so nice to sit outside and casually watch a show or sports. And since we used a stand, it’s portable. We added casters to it for easy relocation from the covered patio to different places in the yard. Also, the stand uses a bracket system so the TV comes off easily for rainy days or long term storage. Linking ours and other options so you can get the style that is right for you.
(This model does not come with casters. We chose the one with the iron base and added the casters later. Make sure you check the weight requirements before purchasing, as you don’t want your stand to fall over when moving it around)

Quince has a dupe of the Rag & Bone Slade Blazer under $100! I love mine R&B blazer! It’s lightweight and so easy to put on over a silky blouse or a graphic tee.

Perfect advent gift for tweens, teens and aging parents! I love these workbooks! I like to do a page on the weekends while watching football or having my morning coffee. Keeps my hands busy and off my phone! Even had my daughter and friend start their visits with water coloring so they don’t get on the phone right away.

Sur La Table Mixes on sale for Black Friday! Stock up on the regular mixes or grab the holiday ones now so you have them ready for entertaining or for holiday craft time for kids. I love their sugar cookie mix for decorating holiday cookies. Pair with some cooking icing, sprinkles and a cookie cutter if making a gift set.

Also, their speciality flours make great gifts for bread bakers! Pair with a good EVOO and a flour sack to make a nice gift set.

Trying to find cheap dining chairs is not easy! Linking some modern style Amazon and Wayfair finds! Again, make sure you measure the tallest person, knee to foot and middle of back to the seat to know how the measurements of the chairs will suit them.

Dark & Moody vibes are great for low light bedroooms, but I highly recommend for people who are working on getting a deep sleep! I created this mock up of my own bedroom to visualize how dark my room would be if I went with an almost black color, such as Cracked Pepper. Note- cracked pepper is a dark warm grey but tone will vary depending on where you source it. So make sure you Samplize your paint before starting! Linking dark grey options.

And yes! There is a TV over the bed, this design idea is for a Frame TV, which is thinner and lighter and you can change the display to go with your moods. It’s an investment but imagine being able to change from a fall landscape to still art to B+W photography anytime you wish! (Make sure the technology supports - Sony TVs do not!) Plus most oversized art at home retailers cost $500-$1200 anyways! This is really a more economical solution ;)
Note: have a professional install the TV and then secure it to the wall by enclosing it within a custom frame. This will minimize risk and hide any gaps behind the TV or allows for ambient lighting. Also make sure you get a small enough TV that it fits above your head board!

The Autumn workbook is so cute! I highly recommend as a weekend activity with kids or teens for November! Also recommended for a girls night out as a sip n paint with your best friends, everyone gets their own workbook and paint set!

This is the best new hobby! It’s so relaxing for the brain. I like painting on the weekends in order to get off my phone 😵‍💫 Also can be done while watching sports or calling your parents 😉 check out the free class on the Emily Lex Studio website before diving in!

You can pick up inexpensive brushes at Michael’s or order off of Amazon. note: the workbooks on Amazon are not from the actual studio, so buy them directly and support the Emily Lex Studio!

*DECOR IDEAS* this is a mock up of my fireplace if I replaced my current cabinets and went with white built ins! I love it and can not unsee it! So this is now on the future project list. Linking fresh picks in case you need a refresh. I personally love the glass candles at Target because once the candle is burned, you have a beautiful tray or vase.

*PEONIES* This is the best new hobby! It’s so relaxing for the brain. I like painting on the weekends in order to get off my phone 😵‍💫 Also can be done while watching sports or calling your parents 😉 I even roped my teen into doing a painting with me. I recommend ordering 2 books and the paint set to start. Then take the free class on the Emily Lex Studio website before diving in. You can swap between the two books so you don’t get bored. I linked the 4 books I have, and currently planning to order the autumn and woodland for fall. These also make excellent gifts for your friends or parents, order the Christmas or Winter workbook and paint set as a holiday gift!

This sofa is so comfortable that you will want to take a nap on it. It’s lasted all summer without any spills! We use a clean dust pan brush to wipe off any debris each week. Note: it’s under an umbrella and it gets covered during rain. It comes in a sectional as well, but the sectional sells out each year. Check back in the spring if looking for a sectional.

I highly recommend for a covered patio or porch, as the fabric will get mildewed if left in the rain.

I’ve been playing around with new designs for my dining room makeover project. Posting here for anyone who is looking for ideas. Products linked below.
This is what I would call a warm minimalist look.
Hot tip for chairs- measure the shortest and tallest person while they are sitting, at their knee height from the floor and from the floor to the middle of their back to ensure that the chair and table heights will work for all family members.

*this color combo is sold out* Officially 3 years old and still holding up! We use a cover during the rainy days, and we have shade during the summer so it’s not in the sun all day long. But it is used almost everyday! The table top gets cleaned with soap and water - that’s it!

*UPDATE: pop up sold out!* Cutest pop up tent from the Kate Spade New York x Target collab! It’s giving cabana vibes! It’s perfect for backyards that don’t want to commit to a pergola. Folds into normal pop up size for winter storage. Also ordered the polka dot pillows and bar cart! Don’t snooze on this collection!

The Vendanda/Belmont cabinet. It is an icon, now available in double width. We purchased in Nov 2019 via our Havenly designer but sourced from Crate and Barrel. It is not easy to get a picture because of the glass reflection! It’s is the statement jewelry of our living room, and the star of the show!
We utilize as decorative storage for various serving pieces but it can store a full 12 piece porcelain set in the bottom half alone - we’ve tested it out! Only 39 inches wide so it can fill most smaller wall spaces and go for the double wide for wider walls!
Make sure you price shop between Crate & Barrel who has special offers for card members but also a handling fee vs. Scout & Nimble who will run occasionally 20% off Four Hands, and has free shipping.

coffee tables and rugs can pull a room together! You can change the entire look of this room by simply changing the coffee table and/or the rug. This room was our sitting room where we could read, but recently the teens have been using it as a game room so we’ve updated with pops of color. Which is your favorite? Also swipe till end to see how we share the space for our furry friends. And wall decor for playrooms is as easy as framing puzzles. All options linked and for more coffee table or rug ideas check out my collections. Note: my ottoman bench is from Article. Linking cheaper option.

I found plug in sconces that hide your switch plates on your backsplash! I’ve hidden them before with cutting boards and other taller things, but these look nicer and give a soft glow at night without having to turn on the overhead lights or the pendants! And there is a switch if you want to turn them off. And if you need to use the outlet then it’s easy to plug back in. I personally wanted the ribbed ones to coordinate with my oil cruets. Linking a few options below.
Note: these would also work beautifully in bathrooms or offices!

Who knew that one day I would be shopping the mall wearing an outfit I swore I had in the 90’s. Life is so cyclical!
I was against going back to wide legs at first but someone had asked me if I lost weight, so I immediately abandoned my skinny jeans and have leaned in! Currently loving the Target version because the Paige ones are nearly the same! Or at least in this lighter wash :)
