Some pretty things 🤍
Getting ready to start my last semester of design school! I can’t believe I’m typing that because it feels like just yesterday I was working as a full time nurse talking interior design at the nurses station with my coworkers and soon it’s going to be my primary profession! #LTKhome
All of the Christmas decor is packaged away for next year aside from this beauty 🎄 I’ve linked in LTKI all my favorite storage solutions we use for our holiday decor - link in my bio! It’s so satisfying having everything labeled and organized ☺️ #LTKSeasonal #LTKhome
Gosh I love the lighting in our kitchen! We have recessed lights throughout our home, which are important for general lighting, but we typically keep the house dimly lit like this 😌 How do you like to keep the lighting in your home? #LTKhome
Enjoying the holiday decor before it’s time to pack it away for next year. When do you put away your holiday decor? #LTKHoliday #LTKhome
7 days until Christmas! 🎄 I’m happy to have found time to still decorate the house despite being busier than ever! Working + wrapping up my second to last semester of design school has kept me busy, and a bit sleep deprived, and yet I can’t help but feel grateful! I hope you all stay safe and healthy this holiday season ♥️
Her favorite spot and favorite blanket! #LTKSeasonal #LTKhome
Boo!!! How cute is my little spooky pillow?! I couldn’t resist 😂👻 Do you decorate for Halloween or just the fall? I’m team fall but I think I want to change that next year. I’ll be keeping an eye out for some decor on clearance after the 31st 🎃 #LTKSeasonal #LTKhome
Decided to rearrange our built-ins this morning and the change feels good! I removed everything from the shelves and had fun finding a new way to use them. Often you don’t have to buy new things, just “go shopping” from other parts of your home! #LTKSeasonal #LTKstyletip #LTKhome
Throw back to last year’s fall living room decor! #LTKhome #LTKSeasonal
I changed up my ledge shelf for fall and I think it’s so cute! I tried something new this year and added a wreath which I love! It brings in a pop of color and a contrasting texture to the space. #LTKSeasonal #LTKhome
That morning light 😍 I’m so pleasantly surprised with this new faux tree I added to this room. In store, I wasn’t wild about the quality but decided to try it out at home. Once I saw it in this room I loved it! | Sofa @interiordefine | link to shop this post in my bio! #LTKhome
I love how layering this area rug over my carpeting helped define the space!
This chandelier will be my favorite home purchase for the foreseeable future!
My favorite nontoxic & cruelty-free/reef safe sunscreen! Zinc oxide based without leaving a white cast 🙌 #LTKbeauty
Found the perfect gray/blue lamp for the living room! We have recessed lighting throughout the house but there’s something about the ambiance of a table lamp that I love! #LTKhome
my newest and favorite addition to the bookcase 🤍 isn’t she pretty?! I originally thought about buying her after seeing her in store during the holidays but when I went back she was sold out. I’m glad I decided to get her months later when she was restocked online. This is the smaller size for your reference. Can fit a 2-3” pot to display your favorite mini plant! And how lovely are her gray hues against this art print? 😍 Everything is linked for you on my LTKI except the wooden vase (discontinued). Happy Friday!
All ready for the 4th of July ❤️🤍💙 ..Although it looks like we’ll be getting rained out in New Jersey 🌧 Either way, I’m looking forward to relaxing with some friends and family. I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday weekend. 🇺🇸 So grateful to live in the USA! #LTKhome #LTKSeasonal
Another reason to love an art TV! I made this cute custom birthday message on Canva and was able to upload it as “art” to my TV for a fun birthday surprise 🥳 #LTKhome
Wishing a very happy 28th birthday to my other half!! 🥳❤️ Growing up Ryan’s family always surprised the birthday boy/girl with balloons/decorations so I’m happy to be continuing the tradition at our house! #LTKstyletip #LTKhome
Comfiest spot in the house 🤍 Sofa: @interiordefine Sloan #interiordefine #interiordefinesloan #LTKhome
Belle definitely approves of the outdoor furniture 🐶 💤 I have to be honest.. I may have neglected to cover my outdoor furniture/cushions for the entire winter even though they came with covers haha but they still look great! The material is stain and water resistant so it’s perfect for those of us who forget to cover them more times than not. Same with these affordable decorative outdoor pillows! Everything you see here (even Belle’s non-choke harness and bow) are linked for you on my LTKI. My outdoor furniture is the ultimate designer dupe for less! I’ve seen almost identical designs from Pottery Barn, Ballard Designs, and Crate&Barrel. It sells out often so be sure to have “local store pickup” checked off as an option. Enjoy your day!
Hope you’re all having a happy, healthy, and safe weekend 🤍 #LTKhome
Ta-da! My secretary desk makeover is complete! What do you think? I found this vintage desk on Facebook marketplace and decided to give it a little makeover. It was super beat-up but nothing a few coats of @anniesloanhome chalk paint couldn’t cover up. I love this charcoal color and how it ties in with other dark accents in my home. This desk will serve as an entry table at the most-used entrance to our home so I added a catch-all bowl and a decorative box to conceal masks/doggy bags/etc. The two wicker baskets serve as shoe storage for me and my husband with one for each of us. The only thing I wanna add is a tray for mail to help keep things organized. Let’s see how long I can keep this neat 😂 If you missed the makeover in stories, I created a highlight for reference! I also added this space to my LTK page (link in bio) if any of the accessories caught your eye. I also linked some similar black desks. Happy Friday! #homedecor #manasquan #homedesign #diy #anniesloanchalkpaint #anniesloan #diyprojects #homestyledecor #interiordesign #interiordesigner #interiordecorating #entrywaydecor #entryway #smallspaces #smallspacedesign #victorian #coastalliving #jerseyshore #manasquannj #LTKunder100 #LTKhome
Channeling all the coastal warm weather vibes with new art on my frame tv 🌊 The summer collection from @collectionprints is SO good! I’ve linked some of my faves on my LTK for your reference. #LTKhome
Hello everyone! I finally swapped out my winter art on our floating shelf now that spring is in full bloom. Our wedding photography by @rebeccaarthurs is so beautiful and transports us back to Maui 🤍 I linked the floating shelf and my pillow covers + all time fav insert for you. The insert is down-free but still gives a great “chop” if that’s your thing. The covers both have zippers making them easy to switch out. The blue-gray one is the prettiest light blue color I have found to date! Happy Monday! #LTKhome
Made my favorite marinara sauce recipe in my crockpot today - so easy! Love that this one isn’t a huge eye sore in my kitchen. Comes in a larger size too
A rare peak at our primary bath! We actually don’t have an en suite bathroom in our bedroom which is one thing I’d love to change about our home one day. Sometimes when you find your dream home it doesn’t check all the boxes and that’s okay! Since it’s just the 2 of us living here this hasn’t been bothersome. I wanna know - is lack of an en suite a deal breaker for you? Let me know in the comments! As always, I linked whatever I could find sources for from this space!
My house has never sparkled or been this clean before! 😍 #thirdandlennox #manasquan #LTKhome
