One of the biggest mistakes I see? Thinking a beautiful home means buying everything from the same store at the same price point.

The homes that feel layered, personal, and collected almost always mix high and low. Investment pieces paired with affordable finds. Vintage mixed with new. Splurges balanced by smart saves.

This space is a perfect example—some pieces were worth the investment, others were incredible budget-friendly finds, but together they tell a much more interesting story than either could on their own.

If you’ve found your way here, chances are we have a similar philosophy on home.

I’m here to show you that beautiful homes aren’t built by shopping from one store or chasing every trend. The magic is in mixing old with new, high with low, vintage with modern, and investment pieces with affordable finds.

My goal is to inspire a home that feels elevated but attainable. Thoughtfully collected and uniquely yours.

Whether it’s an antique I’ve hunted for months, or an Amazon find that looks far more expensive than it is, I’ll always share both.

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you links to my home sources, and curated Amazon storefront.

Too many stripes doesn’t exist in my book! @selectblinds is now offering 60% off sitewide with code MEG and this is such a fun style for a youth space. From the scallop, to the poms and many colorways, you’re set to simply make a statement.

If you’ve been wanting a Frame TV, this is probably the lowest you’re going to see it all year! I’ve shared mine a million times, but it’s still one of those purchases I’d make again in a heartbeat. In fact, I just did for my living room.

It completely changed the way our spaces feel, while providing easy and diverse technology for the whole family.

The secret to happiness just might be a spindle bed.

Okay, maybe not the secret, but there’s something about a spindle bed that instantly makes a bedroom feel warmer, more inviting, and full of character. It has that timeless, collected look that feels equally at home in a coastal cottage, a traditional home, or a modern space that needs a little soul.

It comes in so many colors and sizes, making it easy to work into almost any home and at a price point that’s surprisingly good for the look.

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you the spindle bed along with sources for the entire space!

Your home should tell your story, not a catalog’s.

The spaces I love most aren’t built from one store, one trend, or one perfectly curated shopping cart. They’re layered over time with pieces that mean something—high and low, old and new, collected and inherited.

That’s always been my goal with our home: creating spaces that feel personal, lived-in, and uniquely ours. Not from a Target page 😉

This little corner of our deck was completely dead space. Now? We don’t want to leave.

It’s amazing how one seating area can completely change the way you use your home. What was once a pass-through spot has quickly become our favorite place to end the day, enjoy a slow weekend morning, or watch the sunset with a drink in hand.

It’s definitely not finished yet, though! I’d love your input. What would you add to make this space feel even more inviting?

I reject the idea that motherhood means settling for less beauty, intention, and character. Less of the things that make a house feel like home.

Will there be fingerprints on the cabinets? Absolutely. Dog hair in the corners? Without question. A random toy on the counter? Try 10.

But I’ve found that creating simple systems, choosing durable materials, and embracing the character that comes with a well-loved home goes a lot further than waiting for some future season when the kids are older, the dog is calmer, or life is somehow less messy.

The truth is, this is the season. The memories are happening right now. So yes, I chose the marble. I chose the unlacquered brass. I chose the beautiful kitchen. And then I filled it with real life, with no regrets!

Comment SHOP and I’ll send over all of my kitchen details.

Once you start choosing character over convenience, your home changes.

Case in point: this settee. Could I have put a storage bench here? Sure. Would it have been more practical? Probably. But this little settee adds something a storage bench never could. It softens the space, creates a moment, and makes the house feel a little more collected and a little less expected.

Sometimes the best design decisions aren’t about maximizing function and are more about creating a home that feels uniquely yours.

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you the details and the other patterns this stunner comes in!

We’ve been slowly making little upgrades around here while we thoughtfully plan our future mudroom renovation. As much as I love a forever solution, I also believe there’s value in making your home work better now.

Rather than investing in new tile over the existing wood floors, we decided to try this marble-look peel-and-stick flooring as a temporary solution—and honestly, I’m impressed. It completely changed the feel of the space, took just one day to install, and gives us time to save, plan, and make thoughtful decisions for the larger project down the road.

A little secret for anyone chasing the custom look without the custom quote…

These cushions are from Amazon, come in a huge range of sizes and patterns, arrived fast, and fit our kitchen seating perfectly. They instantly made the space feel more tailored while still being practical enough for everyday life. Andddd I just got red wine out of one of them, after spotting it in this video!

If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I don’t make a single renovation decision without falling down at least 47 research rabbit holes first. And hot tip, you should do the same.

Before we finalized our kitchen, I wasn’t just picking pretty finishes. I was thinking through grocery unloading, coffee making, entertaining, future kids, storage needs, sight lines, appliance placement, budgets, and whether I’d still love a decision five years from now.

The reality is that the best renovations aren’t built around inspiration photos alone, they’re built around your habits.

How you live, what you reach for, what drives you crazy, what needs to grow with you. The pretty part comes later, and is that much easier when the rest is planned.

I’ve always followed a paint process for good reason. No matter how confident I am in a color, it never goes straight on the wall.

Paint is one of the biggest transformations you can make in a home, but it’s also one of the easiest things to get wrong. Colors shift throughout the day, look different against your finishes, and can feel completely different in your space than they did online or in the store.

Friend to friend: paint samples are cheaper than regret. Want my process to get it right the first time?

I’ve had these for hooks for years and I’d still buy them (and the entire collection) today.

@bayberryandco sourced these brass hooks, towel bar, and more during our renovation, and they are quite literally perfection down to every detail. The finish, the shape, the scale—they feel timeless but modern in function. The double hook is one of those small design decisions that makes a big difference. More function, less clutter, and plenty of room for towels, robes, and steaming clothes!

Every once in a while, I find something that feels like it belongs in a coastal antique shop instead of an Amazon cart.

This is one of those finds. The colors, the texture, the brass hook that gives vintage feel…I genuinely thought it would cost significantly more. Even better, I’ve never seen anyone share this piece before.

Eight years ago, I posted a photo of our home and hoped someone out there might find it meaningful. I wasn’t an interior designer, nor a content creator, and I certainly wasn’t running a business. I was just someone who loved making a house feel like home and felt a pull to share it.

Since then, this little corner of the internet has completely changed my life. It’s led to friendships, opportunities, projects, partnerships, renovations, late nights, big risks, lessons, and more growth than I ever could have imagined.

It became a business. It helped support my family. It gave me a creative outlet during seasons when I desperately needed one. And somehow, after all these years, you’re still here.

What I think most of us are afraid to say is that what I’m most proud of isn’t the follower count, the projects, or even the business. It’s that I kept showing up. Through algorithm changes, life changes, confidence changes, and seasons where I wasn’t sure where any of this was headed, I kept posting. Every. Day. And eight years later, I’m still excited to share what’s next.

Thank you for being here. Whether you’ve followed for eight years, eight months, or eight days, you’ve played a part in this story. BIG things coming, stay sat.

I’d love to know—how long have you been here? 🤍

Summer Fridays have begun over here. A gentle reminder to sign off a little early every now and then.

The emails will still be there. The laundry will still be there. But summer is moving fast. For me, the little joys look like throwing on a coverup, grabbing a beach bag, and heading down to the water with my family. Whatever yours looks like, I hope you make time for it this weekend.

Being married to a golfer means accepting that golf balls somehow become collectibles, scorecards become keepsakes, and every vacation has a chance of turning into a tee time.

When I designed my husband’s office, I knew I wanted it to reflect something he genuinely loves without feeling like we brought the clubhouse inside. The goal wasn’t a golf-themed room. It was a sophisticated office, inspired by golf.

Instead of filling the space with sports memorabilia, I focused on the stories behind the game. Matchbooks from favorite trips and special places became artwork. Collected golf balls were displayed like treasures. Golf flags shared the wall with sailing pieces, books, maps, and artwork we love. Every detail was chosen to tell a bigger story than just the sport itself.

And if you’re a fellow golf wife, consider this proof that you can honor the hobby without sacrificing good design. 😉

#Ad I’ve always believed the best outdoor spaces are the ones that actually get used.

We recently swapped our black rocking chairs for these woven rockers and they’ve completely changed the feel of this corner. The texture adds so much warmth, but what really sold me was the deeper seat and cushions. They’re the kind of chairs you settle into with your morning coffee and somehow end up staying a little longer.
