Airbnb bedroom refresh ideas for a warmer, cozier guest room 🤍 After staying in a cute but very sparse Airbnb bedroom in the Texas Hill Country, I realized how much small details can change the guest experience. This lake house bedroom didn’t need a full makeover, but a few thoughtful updates would make it feel so much more comfortable and inviting: layered bedding, better pillows, more substantial bedside lamps, a properly scaled rug for a king bed, a dresser for storage, lake-inspired wall art, and nightstands with charging ports. Linking the pieces I used for this cozy Airbnb bedroom redesign, plus similar guest bedroom decor finds that add warmth, texture, storage, and that more elevated lake house feel. LTKHome LTKTravel

Champagne bronze cabinet hardware was one of those kitchen renovation details I thought would be easy to choose… until I started looking. 😂

The perfect champagne bronze finish can add so much warmth to a kitchen, but then come all the other decisions: cabinet knobs or pulls, drawer pull sizes, placement, finish and budget.

I rounded up some of my favorite champagne bronze kitchen hardware, including cabinet pulls and knobs at different price points, so you don’t have to scroll through hundreds of options like I did.

Brass Nutribullet Ultra + warm organic modern kitchen sources 🤍

My husband found this brass Nutribullet Ultra and asked if getting the pretty blender meant it could live on the kitchen counter.

Honestly… fair compromise.

We use a Nutribullet constantly for smoothies, protein shakes, and blending greens without weird chunks, so if it’s going to stay out every day, I want it to feel intentional with the rest of the kitchen design.

This warm brass color works so well with our organic modern kitchen renovation, white oak island, warm backsplash tile, quartz countertops, champagne bronze cabinet hardware, and soft neutral cabinet color.

Linking the Nutribullet Ultra, plus the kitchen decor pieces and sources I’m always asked about.

Kitchen details:
Backsplash tile: affordable zellige-look tile from Lowe’s
Countertops: Daltile Mokara quartz
Perimeter cabinet color: Benjamin Moore White Dove

Also linking similar kitchen styling pieces, countertop decor, cutting boards, vases, stems, and warm organic modern kitchen finds to get the look.

Affordable zellige-look backsplash tile for our warm organic modern kitchen renovation 🤍

This Lowe’s backsplash tile has been one of my most asked-for kitchen links, and it was actually the very first finish we chose for the space.

I knew I wanted a tile that would bring warmth, texture, and that imperfect handmade zellige look to the kitchen without spending designer tile prices. Similar zellige-style backsplash tiles we looked at were significantly more expensive, but this one gave us the soft, organic, high-end look for much less.

It has that pretty handcrafted feel, subtle variation, and warm neutral tone that works so well with white oak cabinets, quartz countertops, champagne bronze hardware, warm kitchen lighting, and an organic modern kitchen design.

I’m linking the exact affordable backsplash tile we used, the higher-end tile options we considered, and the other kitchen renovation finds we’re using in our remodel.

A few non-linkable kitchen details people ask about:
Countertops: Daltile Mokara quartz
Perimeter cabinet color: Benjamin Moore White Dove
Island: white oak with a white-wash stain

If your kitchen feels a little too sterile, it’s not always the cabinets, paint, or hardware… it’s the lack of warmth. Adding wood, layered lighting, warm or aged metals, woven texture, and natural materials can completely change how the room feels. It’s the difference between a kitchen that looks finished and one that actually feels like home 🤍

Linking everything we’re using in our kitchen remodel to create a warmer and more cozy kitchen ✨

Amazon kitchen renovation find: champagne bronze pot filler for less 🤍

I’m linking the pot filler I chose for our kitchen renovation, but the best savings came from checking Amazon’s “used - like new” option.

On the Amazon product page, look next to the regular “new” price and click the “like new” option if it’s available. That’s where I found mine for $300 less than retail!

Inventory and pricing will fluctuate depending on Amazon returns, open-box availability, and current stock, so the same markdown may not always be there, but it’s definitely worth checking if you’re shopping for kitchen fixtures, bathroom fixtures, lighting, or other home renovation finds!

This champagne bronze pot filler works beautifully with an organic modern kitchen, white oak cabinets, quartz countertops, and warm kitchen finishes.

Hallway decor sources for our home renovation 🤍

Linking the matted picture frames we’re planning to hang at the end of the hallway, plus the gallery light, ceiling light fixture, and paint colors we’re using to make this space feel warmer and more finished.

The frames are currently BOGO 50% off, which makes this a great time to grab a pair for a hallway, entryway, stair landing, bedroom, or gallery wall.

Our hallway plan includes two large matted frames, a picture light above, warm neutral walls, white trim, and updated ceiling lighting to create a more intentional, custom-looking hallway design.

Paint colors:
Walls: Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige
Trim: Benjamin Moore White Dove

Girls’ bathroom renovation in progress! 🤍

We’re giving these bathrooms a fresh update without starting from scratch. Instead of replacing everything, we’re keeping the classic white subway tile shower and gray vanity, then completely changing the feel with:

✨ Sherwin-Williams Alabaster walls
🌸 Soft pink accents
🌿 Floral decor
🤍 Warm textures
🪞 Timeless finishes

It’s amazing how a few thoughtful updates can transform a kids’ bathroom into a space that feels softer, more elevated, and ready to grow with them.

I’ve linked the decor, accessories, and design inspiration we’re using for this bathroom remodel!

#LTKHome #LTKSaleAlert

Pull-down bathroom faucet for easier sink cleaning 🤍

We originally bought regular bathroom faucets for our bathroom vanity, but right before installation I found this pull-down version for only about $30 more — and it felt like such a smart bathroom renovation upgrade.

A pull-down vanity faucet makes it so much easier to rinse the sink, clean toothpaste, wash out the basin, and deal with everyday bathroom messes like husband beard trimmings.🤣

Linking the bathroom faucet we chose, plus the other bathroom remodel fixtures and finishes we’re using in our renovation.

#LTKHome

Warm organic modern home renovation finds 🤍

Sharing the pieces and finishes we’re using to make our home feel warmer, more layered, and more inviting: warm wood tones, kitchen lighting, cabinet hardware, bathroom fixtures, organic textures, styling pieces, and designer-inspired home decor.

This is the direction we’re taking throughout our renovation — timeless home design, layered lighting, natural materials, and elevated pieces that still feel comfortable and lived in.

#LTKHome

The renovation is still very much renovating… but today I finally got to see some of the pretty progress. 🤍

The shower glass is installed, the kitchen pendant lights are going up, the dining chandelier is hung, and the floors are finally dry enough that replacement wood should be going in next week.

After so many delays, corrections, decisions, and mystery problems, it feels really good to see the home renovation details starting to come together.

The kitchen renovation is finally getting its lighting, the bathroom remodel is starting to look finished, the dining room feels more like the vision, and we’re one step closer to getting the floors repaired, sanded, and stained.

There are still plenty of things happening behind the scenes, but I’m choosing to focus on the progress today.

Because honestly… I really needed a pretty update. 🤍

#LTKHome

Kitchen pendant lighting for our organic modern kitchen renovation 🤍

These are the white kitchen pendant lights we chose for over our 10-foot kitchen island, and they are finally installed after sitting in boxes for months during our remodel.

Our old kitchen didn’t have island pendants, so adding layered lighting was one of the updates I was most excited about. I wanted something simple, warm, timeless, and not too trendy — a pendant light that would work with the white oak island, champagne bronze kitchen hardware, quartz countertops, and warm neutral kitchen design.

Linking the kitchen pendants here, plus the other kitchen renovation finishes we’re using in our home.🤍

Home office seating dilemma: two affordable boucle swivel chairs or one oversized cozy chair splurge?

We’re finishing our custom office built-ins and now I’m deciding what to do in the window corner. The two-chair conversation area looks pretty and balanced, but the oversized Arhaus chair feels like the spot I’d actually use for reading, coffee, and morning sunlight.

Linking both home office seating options, plus pieces we’re considering for the rest of the office design.

#LTKHome

If your kitchen feels colder than you want it to, look at what materials are repeating. Too many cool tones in one space can make even a nice kitchen feel harsh or dated. I’d start by layering in warmer wood tones, softer bulbs, textured accessories, and metals that don’t feel icy. Small changes can make the whole space feel more custom and lived-in 🤍

#LTKHome

Champagne bronze kitchen hardware is one of the finishing details that can completely transform a space.

For our kitchen remodel, we’re pairing Benjamin Moore White Dove cabinets with a white oak island, and these are the champagne bronze knobs and pulls I’m considering. They add just the right amount of warmth and contrast while keeping the look timeless and organic modern.

I’ve linked all of my favorite kitchen hardware options below if you’re planning a kitchen renovation or updating your cabinets.

Save this if you wear a women’s size 8 or smaller 👟

I’ve worn On Cloud shoes for years with scrubs at work and for everyday life, but here’s my favorite money-saving tip…

If you wear a women’s size 8 or smaller, check out the kids’ On Cloud shoes! They have the same comfortable look and feel, but they’re priced much lower than the adult version.

And the last season colors get marked down to $75-85! Stacked with On’s 15% off community discount (discounts for physicians, nurses, military, teachers, and students), bringing my total to just $65!

I wear 7.5 in the women’s style, and 6 in kids.

If you’re looking for comfortable shoes for healthcare workers, long shifts, walking, travel, or everyday wear, these are one of my favorite finds. I’ve linked both the adult Cloud 6 and the kids’ version below so you can compare!

This room isn’t done yet… but I finally know where it’s going 🤍

It started as a very functional gym space: treadmill, elliptical, bright blue walls that were supposed to feel calming… but didn’t.

So we reset.

Cleared everything out, painted everything SW Alabaster, and gave it a clean slate.

Now the vision is something completely different:
- a more boutique-style home gym
- simple, elevated, and actually a place I want to spend time in

Think:
- fluted wood detail
- oversized arched mirrors
- soft lighting
- minimal, intentional equipment

What am I missing that I need? What are your home gym must haves?

Help me choose 🤍

Trying to decide on a console for our dining room and I keep going back and forth between these two.

The Arhaus chiseled console is definitely the splurge! My husband loves the texture and detail, and it feels like one of those pieces that adds a lot of character.

But at ~$3,400 (even with 30% off), it’s a commitment… especially since we’ve already splurged on the dining table and chairs.

The Amazon version is around $300 (actually the price dropped to $230!) and I actually love the cleaner lines. Plus the black could tie in really well with the chair details.

So now I’m stuck between:
- something more unique and textured
- something more simple and versatile

This is the vision for the after 🤍

Not the finished room, just the version that’s helping me edit everything more intentionally while we’re still very much in the messy middle.

I used real products we’re actually planning around and pulled them into an AI mockup so I could see the direction more clearly before committing. And honestly… this might be one of the most helpful tools for indecisive home people.

One more piece for our kitchen remodel! These organic modern kitchen counter stools 🤍

After way too much debating, we finally decided on these Nathan James counter stools for our white oak kitchen island. They have the warm wood tones, clean lines, and timeless look I wanted for our kitchen remodel, and they’re one of my favorite designer-inspired finds.

Even better—they’re currently on sale and at their lowest Amazon price in the past year, making this a great time to grab them if they’re already on your wishlist.

I’ve linked the stools we’re using in our kitchen renovation.

#LTKHome #LTKSaleAlert

Just because I’m sharing home finds doesn’t mean I don’t love a good outfit find too 🤍

This breezy summer blouse is one of my favorites, and it’s on clearance for just $15! It’s lightweight, super comfortable, and somehow makes me feel instantly put together. Paired with my go-to bracelets and sandals for an easy summer look.

I’ve linked everything I can below! (The Amazon shorts are coming soon once my storefront access is approved.)

We remodeled this kitchen 11 years ago, and honestly, it held up pretty well.

The countertops weren’t the problem.
The layout wasn’t the problem.
Cabinet space and storage weren’t the problem.

What started bothering me was how cold it felt.

Cooler gray tones, no natural wood, and finishes that didn’t feel like us anymore.

What I know for sure after living with my kitchen for 11 years: a kitchen doesn’t have to be trendy to still feel beautiful 10 years later, it just has to feel warm.

So this renovation isn’t about chasing trends. It’s about creating a home that feels warm enough that we’ll still love it another 10 years from now. 🤍

#kitchendesign #kitchenremodel #kitchenrenovation #homerenovation #organicmodern

#LTKHome

We’re not completely changing the kitchen layout.

We’re changing the feeling.

After living with this kitchen for 11 years, we realized the layout still works, but the cooler gray finishes started feeling colder than we wanted.

So this renovation is less about starting over and more about warming everything up:

• white oak
• softer backsplash
• warmer metals
• quartz
• layered lighting
• more timeless materials

Sometimes the biggest transformation isn’t changing everything.

It’s changing the pieces that affect how the whole room feels. 🤍

#LTKHome

White cabinets have been around for decades, and they’re not going out of style anytime soon.

The difference between a kitchen that feels cold and one that feels warm usually isn’t the cabinet color.

It’s everything you layer in afterward.

Think:
• Warm wood tones
• Handmade-look tile
• Layered lighting
• Warm metal finishes
• Natural materials

Those details are what give a kitchen character.

Which one do you think makes the biggest difference?

#LTKHome

This is one of those outfits I reach for again and again. 🤍

It feels as comfortable as pajamas but looks effortlessly put together. The two-piece set gives the look of a chic romper while being even more comfortable (and practical!).

Perfect for a day of wine tasting, brunch, vacation, or just staying cool in the Texas heat. I get compliments every time I wear it, so of course I had to link it!

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKmomlife #LTKPetite

Our Arhaus dining room pieces are officially ready… even if our renovation is not 😅

We ordered the Mihaela dining table and Andreas chandelier for our dining room, and I keep visiting them in the showroom while they wait for our house to be done.

Linking the pieces we chose for our home from Arhaus.

Arhaus is also running 30% off orders of $2,000+ through 7/6, with exclusions.

#LTKHome #LTKSaleAlert

Trying to be really intentional about where I spend and where I don’t in this house…

Because not everything needs to be a splurge to feel elevated, but some things really do carry a room!

Right now my general approach:
- splurge on statement pieces
- save on things that are easier to swap later

I’d love to know… where do you always save vs. splurge?

#LTKHome

Kitchen renovation find: champagne bronze faucet

I picked this faucet for our kitchen remodel because I wanted something warm, classic, and clean-lined without feeling too yellow or overly gold. It just arrived and the champagne bronze finish is such a pretty soft brass tone.

Perfect if you’re looking for a warm kitchen faucet, organic modern kitchen finishes, or designer-inspired kitchen hardware without the designer price.

#LTKHome

The dining room vision board 🤍

A mix of high and low finds that create a warm, elevated, custom feel. Some favorite pieces from Arhaus paired with budget-friendly alternatives that give a similar look for less.

#LTKHome

The items that earn their spot in my daily routine 🤍

I wear the Forme posture-correcting bras almost every day—under scrubs at work and with leggings for the gym. It's one of those products I repurchase because I genuinely miss it when I'm not wearing it. And it’s on SALE so I’m grabbing more!

Paired with my favorite leggings, workout gloves, AirPods, and Apple Watch, these are the everyday essentials that come with me from long days at the hospital to workouts and everything in between.
