My Collections

I get asked all the time...how do you mix patterns and while I don’t have a “formula” for it.

These are a few foundational tips that I come back to every time:

• Start classic. A medium-scale floral paired with a medium-scale stripe is always a safe, beautiful foundation. The colors on this don’t even have to match!

• Play with scale. Mix a small gingham print, with a bold block print, and a medium floral print to create balance and visual interest. Color cohesion is important here; you want them to feel like they are “related” but NOT closely related!

• Repeat a pattern in different colors. Using the same motif (in my case...gingham) in different colors keeps things cohesive without feeling too matchy.

• Add a pause. A solid fabric gives the eye a place to rest and lets your patterns shine.

If pattern mixing has ever felt intimidating, SAVE this and come back to it the next time you’re styling a room 🤍

Over the years, I’m always asked about our trim…

Is it original?
What paint did you use?
What stain matches it best?

The trim in our home is original to our 1920s Craftsman, but if you’re trying to recreate that same timeless, traditional look, the closest match we’ve found is Early American by Minwax.

It’s warm, classic, and has that old-home depth that never feels trendy.

Save this for future reference if you love rich, character-filled trim 🤎

What’s something in your life that didn’t turn out how you planned… but you’re grateful for anyway?

I’ll be honest… in this season of uncertainty that my family and I find ourselves in, regarding my sister‘s recent cancer diagnosis, I struggle most days to find the light at the end of the tunnel.

I know that often times the struggles that we face in our life can be used to refine us, shape us and mold us into an even better version of ourselves, but getting into that version is never an easy road.

So I’m curious… what’s something in your life that didn’t go as planned and maybe felt like the end of the road for you in some respect but ended up being a blessing in disguise?

This new fleece zip up is my whole personality right now ❤️ comes in so many more colors too!

Bought this quarter zip and wasn’t even going to try it on b/c I was afraid of the color the minute I brought it home 😆😜 can you relate to that?

But then I put it on and I kind of LOVE it!

My day 2 hair products that I use to give my hair added volume!

My Closet

Even though the Pink Room naturally feels like it was made for Valentine’s Day, it felt right to lean in and add a few extra touches of whimsy, pink, and red.

These scalloped polka dot sheets were the starting point for this mini refresh, and when I found the pink gingham Valentine’s Day lumbar pillows, it truly felt like a little textile dream.

Everything else is bedding I’ve collected over the years. I simply swapped a few duvet covers and mixed and matched pillowcases. One of my favorite things is getting to shop our own linen closet.

Should I do a pattern-mixing series?

Kitchen

There’s something about the way a rug grounds a space—how it can shift the whole feeling of a room with nothing more than texture and tone. ✨

We recently swapped out the rug in the boys’ adventure room for the Weatherstaff from the new Leanne Ford x Loloi collection, and I’m in love with the warmth it brought in. The cinnamon and natural stripes feel timeless—like something you’d find in an old seaside cottage or tucked away cabin.

This whole line is filled with natural fibers, honest color, and that effortless lived-in beauty @leannefordinteriors does best.
