These jeans (I have in 4 colors) are 50% off and honestly better than some $185 ones I’ve tried on. Loved this classic outfit on this almost spring day!

I've been helping my friend update her home, but we weren't sure how to solve the slatted blinds problem in this breakfast area. Enter these lovely Roman shades from Neutral Curtains. They are double on one headrail and they easily replaced the slatted blinds on the doors. We also changed the light fixture and added a nice table and chair set… but we had to start with function first, and these blinds needed to block the sunlight and add privacy. We chose a lined Roman shade with an edge binding. Such a difference and so simple!

I am amazed at how much we were able to transform my friend's breakfast area with this one change! We started with a new table and chair set… these are from Costway and are super affordable and still solid wood and sturdy quality. I absolutely love the chair with this classic rattan caning, and this lovely soft wood color. Plus I always love mixing the table color with the chairs.

We also changed the light fixture and Roman shades instead of the slatted blinds on the door. What a big change we made and still so simple and affordable! Linking everything in my LTK and my bio.

This tablecloth and napkin set was made for spring! The green floral/leaves were perfect for St. Patrick’s Day but anytime the next few months too. Linking all of our silverware and dinnerware too!

I never really considered painting it cause it’s sooo much work, and I couldn’t commit to that big of a change to an old house. But it’s not my favorite wood color and I never really loved it. But the other day I was daydreaming about decorating a new house and I felt a little sad to think of not having the original wood trim anchoring things. I even think it works well with some dark antique wood pieces, nothing is too overpowering or dusty old lady. Here’s to blooming where you’re planted, I guess??

#LTKHome

Coved ceilings and one of only two walls in the kitchen? It had to stay. Despite the open floor plan trends. Plus, we can close the doors when Micah smoke up the kitchen cooking steak. Here’s to not messing with old houses sometimes 🫠🙏

Springy colors but make it a sweater… win win!! Love this striped 100% cotton cardigan. Only $32!

Otto’s room had almost no storage, so we just kept stuff sort of pushed against the walls on the floor. 🤦‍♀️ Until I had an idea. We also didn't use his closet at all, but I found a really simple $129 closet system and my friend's husband helped install it 🙏❤️. He custom fit it into this kind of funky old closet, even working around the original angled shoe shelf (we have them in almost all our closets). We didn’t need the top part of the shelf unit, or the other bars that it came with, but we even got an extra bar out of it that I’ve been hanging Lucy‘s summer dresses on.

He’s a 7-year-old boy so he doesn’t have any clothes that need to go in the closet, but now we have room for all his books and toys that we totally didn't before. So simple and gave us so much storage!

About three months into my year of decorating for every minor holiday, and I’d say it’s going well! I love having ribbons on every lamp for the season. Found this perfect 1.5” wide mini gingham ribbon that comes in so many pretty colors… I might need more for spring!

#LTKSpringSale #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

I had a corkboard in my room above my desk for years and lovingly added photos, art, keepsakes, movie, and concert tickets… I wanted to create some special places for my kids to put whatever they want up too!

Honestly, my overthinking self took forever to do this because I wanted a real wood frame and the ones I originally ordered from Amazon never came… So I had to compromise with these, but same-day pick up is pretty appealing! These are 24 x 36 which is pretty big.

I have a slightly smaller wood frame one above my desk in my current office, too!

#LTKHome #LTKKids #LTKmomlife

My friend and I totally transformed her living room with so many amazing changes, but one that we debated about forever was the chairs. She tried just one, but decided we really needed a pair, but that’s expensive (and/or only available in beige)… We found this beautiful light blue woven texture armchair that’s an amazing price. It swivels, rocks, and looks so elegant!

Full disclosure, the seat cushion is not as soft and comfy as a down wrapped one would be, but again… The price is right. Plus, her kids love swiveling in these!

You guys always love a good swap… how about 4?! I’ve been helping my friend with her living room and we found these lovely upgrades from @zgallerie to take it up a notch. These lamps are HEAVY and solid, I love the natural materials of these and the tray, and the frames are classic but also catch the light so nicely. And those stems… statement! My friend likes light and calm and feminine… think we did it, right?!

I have loved white bedding since I first started decorating my bedrooms and it just can do no wrong! The trendy patterns come and go and honestly the reason isn’t that they’re better—it’s that the brands want you to keep shopping. I’ve loved my white linen sheets for years now and I keep an extra pair and different seasons of duvets and quilts (all white). It’s not boring cause it’s so pretty. Have you tried all white bedding?!
P.S. I use oxyclean for whites to keep it from yellowing or greying!

#LTKHome

Love these cheerful new bikinis! The nautical cases are ridiculously cute, and I can’t resist gingham. On sale!

I took my regular size small in the tops (I am a 34B), did a medium in the red bottoms, and a small and the blue bottoms.

I came across some photos of my first plate walls on my blog the other day… They are seriously mortifying. 😆 I was going to include them in this reel but I’m too embarrassed. 🙈 Maybe I’ll share them in stories today. Point is, I’ve tried a lot of different methods… These hidden plate hangers are not only super solid and easy to use, but they hold the plates just the way you hang them! Linking them and these affordable hand-painted cabbage plates I’m obsessed with in LTK!

Absolutely love this incredible quality linen bedding from Quince! I’m a white bedding lover, and linen is so soft and comfortable. Quince has designer quality at very friendly prices because of their unique sourcing and inventory methods.

I have tried multiple robot vacuums in my day, and they’re never quite as good as I’d hoped. That’s why I’m so excited about the new MOVA P10 Pro Ultra Gen2 Robot Vacuum.

This one has been so much smoother and better than I could've imagined! It handles crumbs, pet hair, and all the shedding from my natural wool and jute rugs without me having to rescue it or re-run it three times. If you have kids, pets, or people with dirty shoes coming through your house, you know how big that is. It has 26,000 Pa powerful suction and 12N downward force, both way stronger than my last vacuum.

I love that it’s smart enough to navigate my house easily, powerful enough to actually pick up things the others have missed, and it's even quiet enough that I can run it while we’re home!

It vacuums, it mops, and it takes one more thing off my mental load... and it has the latest MaxiReach technology for corner and edge cleaning so it's extra thorough. It also cleans itself, with a 212 degree hot mop wash & 1-hour Eco-Dry, always ready for next use.

If you’ve tried robot vacuums before and felt disappointed, especially in a lived-in home with rugs, kids, and pets, this one might finally change your mind.

My bedroom definitely needed a little spring refresh! I'm starting with this lovely fresh white linen bedding from Quince. I love linen sheets and their fluffy, lightweight Dream Quilt is the perfect weight for spring.

Next I swapped the vintage mirrors I've had here for some floral art and I took out these brass vintage lamps and tried these white funny floral ones that I actually love 😆, swapped some spring accessories… and here we have it, our bedroom that's updated for the slightly warmer days that we've been having. 🤞

Plus I love white linen bedding and this is so comfy and perfect for any season! Linen sheets are seriously amazing… Have you tried them yet?! You can get 10% off your first @onequince order with my code INFG-26SUZANNAHSTANLEY10 #quincepartner

I searched and searched for wide, non-cheesy gingham ribbon in a cute green… this one is perfect! Comes in several cute colors and js a great price for 25 yards! Bows on everything. No lamp is safe. Perfect for spring, St. Patrick’s Day, even into Easter!

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

In 2025 I took down at least three gallery walls 🙈. But that’s not to say groupings of things on walls aren’t good… I think we can just be more creative and find unique combinations—now that you can buy vintage-inspired art and frames in sets at the big box anyway. Let’s think outside that!

I’m obsessed with these cabbage plates a bunch of you voted no to. I love them in my dining room with the other greens and the grasscloth-ey wallpaper! Plus they are so affordable for a hand painted veggie plate! Linking in LTK and my story highlights.

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

I’m only half kidding. I’ve found more and more as I’ve been a happier person lately… doing small, unnecessary, slightly whimsical things change the energy of my home and therefore me and my family!

Nothing fancy, just a $13 garland and about 30 seconds of work… now when I see it I’m reminded that I can have fun and joy in my basic everyday moments.

Linking this cute one in LTK!

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

I’ve seen the charming aesthetic reels of “romanticizing your life” and it’s not quite this… every day suburban mom.

But I think that’s what I’m doing this year… I don’t need a European vacation, perfect morning routine, fresh flowers on a marble island… just swapping the garland over the sink for the kids makes me feel so happy and calm in my home!

So I probably don’t need to tell you how excited I am about this adorable $13 felt garland! It’s beaded! I searched high and low and found a non-ugly one I love. I think I might buy another. Linking it in LTK.

#LTKmomlife #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

73% of you voted no to these cabbage plates… I still love them! I found these hand painted plates at a super affordable price and I love the charm and vintage inspired funkiness they bring to my dining room. Plus I love the warm green color next to this painting.

Plates are really an untapped decor option, aren’t they?! I stand behind this one!

Linking the cabbage plates in my LTK, they come in a couple sizes and they come in purple too!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

My house is not immaculate, and there are usually toys and kid art
around, but it never looks like a bomb went off. I’m pretty sure this is why…

Two things: I set up a good system, and then I model.

1) I choose nice stuff to store our toys that’s large enough and fits in the rest of our home. None of those white plastic or melamine shelves that are too small for anything.
2) I give my kids a home where the grown-ups pick up. I don’t leave my clothes on the floor or chairs, so they’ve never seen anyone do that. I ask them to pick up their toys. (Sometimes I end up doing it, but still… Then they are used to a clean home.)

That way, we never have to do a massive deep clean, it’s always just a little maintenance stuff.

Step 1 is easier than step 2 if you’re struggling though, and it’s definitely a mindset thing… But even if you struggle with this, you can use your design brain to think of storage solutions that work for your home in the best case scenario and start there.

You guys loved this post a few weeks ago so I thought I would give you some more examples! 2026 for me is all about gratitude and celebrating the home I’ve created, not about perfection but about meaning and comfort (in a beautiful way of course).

Linking the curtains and Roman shade I love so much (I have a similar combo in several rooms, the trim on the curtains makes them so special!) and some great choices for a photo frames. You can use my code SUZANNAHSTANLEY for 25% off on the curtains and bamboo shades!

Im a purist for down comforters and natural fiber bedding, and I just found the perfect comforter to put in my basement guest room. This Sophia & William Feather and Down Comforter is cozy and warm without feeling heavy, which is exactly what I need in a basement guest room that needs some extra coziness. The box stitch construction keeps the down evenly distributed so it stays lofty and comfortable instead of shifting or clumping and it's got those corner loops to keep everything in place. And it has a super densely woven cotton fabric designed to prevent the feathers from poking through. It's also an amazing price point for a down and feather filled comforter with a cotton cover! Trust me, I can seriously nerd out about a good comforter and this one passes all the tests!

Spring decor doesn’t have to be single use! Swap out dark and heavy for light and simple and everything will feel a little fresher. I love this yellow and white striped ruffled pillow.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

My home is lovely, but it’s not my dream, and it took me years of pining and feeling frustrated with its quirks, wishing for something different, and then I realized… I can love my home just the way it is, and still want something different in the future. It’s uncomfortable for me to not have a plan laid out, but with all the turns my life has taken the past few years, I’ve gotten a little more used to that.

I’m honestly so happy living in my home now. I’ve made the changes I could, never knocking down walls or doing a full renovation but starting with a foundation I liked (lots of warm white paint) and then adding beautiful details.

There’s no point feeling frustrated when it doesn’t make any sense for me to have bought my dream home at any point in my life thus far! But I can do so much, and feel so grateful, with what I have.

Even if you can’t do anything to your home, not even paint, you can still hang a Valentine’s garland, pick out dishes that make you happy, get yourself some fresh flowers…! No need to wait for the perfect home.

#LTKmomlife #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

I searched for months and could not find antique or vintage dressers or nightstands for the guest room I’m working on in my basement. I love an antique when I can find one, but it wasn’t happening!

But I finally found these charming dark wood nightstands from @hulala_home. They’re solid wood construction and have some beautiful details that make them feel perfect for this sort of vintage-inspired guest room. Plus, they have some modern conveniences, like the fact that they plug into the wall, so lamps and phone chargers can plug right into them.

They’re perfect for small, efficient spaces because not only are they nightstands, they also have three drawers for great storage. Perfect for this funny little nook in our basement that I’ve turned into a sweet, charming guest room.

These are also super affordable, linked in my LTK and in my bio!

#LTKHome

Very happy and honestly a little surprised at how cute this room turned out! It’s a basement so I didn’t have high hopes… I threw something together before Christmas, but it needed a little bit more cohesive planning, including better nightstands, lamps, and styling… And the all white bedding really helped to make it not feel thrown together! Plus, is there anywhere a jute rug doesn’t look good? I seriously can’t think of anywhere.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

The other day I shared this vintage floral Ethan Allen chair in stories and got some questions. But I can’t link it! I’ve found a great balance of vintage/antique and custom or otherwise new in my bedroom and I love it so much.

#LTKHome

I shared recently I’m excited to decorate for little holidays throughout the year like Valentine’s Day and Easter. One of you pointed out that St. Patrick’s Day and is next and I was like… Oh crap… That doesn’t sound as cute. Ideas welcome😂❤️

#LTKHome #LTKValentine #LTKSeasonal

I heard this advice years ago and have thought about it plenty since… The idea is white is a great background for a beautiful, often colorful things. Like an art gallery, with large, plain walls that allow the art to shine.

I love my classic white kitchen, but I also love my peachy pink bedroom… What do you think?!

Linking some Valentine’s Day decor faves in LTK.

#LTKValentine #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

I’ve resolved to be a more fun mom and turns out it’s fun for me, too! I started small with gingerbread house plates at Christmas, but I am leaning in lately and we are all loving the cute, seasonal decor, even in a dark, sad, rainy season like winter. The pink and hearts really bring joy!

Rounded up my favorite Valentine’s plates, mugs, and other simple additions in this post!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKmomlife #LTKHome

Here’s ago I cohosted a design podcast and every year I would get excited about researching the trends for the next year. I would pore over articles and come up with what I thought was a good summary that made sense for the design community here on Instagram.

But it’s different now… It feels like everything has been done before, which means we’re coming back to the best of the best.

2026 design is leaning into depth over drama:
• Pattern drenching that feels layered and cohesive, not loud
• Nostalgia and memory as a design direction — pieces that feel familiar, comforting, and collected over time, or our beautiful to you because of a memory
• Handmade and artisan details that add texture, variation, and soul
• Rooms that feel collected, not styled all at once
• Atmosphere over visual impact — how a space feels to live in matters more than how it photographs!

None of this is about chasing what’s new. It’s about creating rooms that hold meaning, feel lived in, and get better the longer you’re there. It’s not hard to do, but we sometimes get away from it with the temptations of Target and HomeGoods fast home fashion.

If your home feels calm, layered, and a little nostalgic, you’re not behind in design trends, and I bet your home feels wonderful, too!

#LTKHome

I keep seeing “2026 trends” pop up, and what makes me smile is how many of them are about keeping instead of replacing.

These are the design directions showing up everywhere right now, and they all happen to be things I’ve slowly layered into this house over time:

• Soft tailoring over minimalism (pleated linen curtains, added details like trim and piping)
• New traditional that feels relaxed, not precious
• Natural materials that age well instead of looking perfect on day one
• Warm whites paired with warm metals, especially in kitchens
• Full wallpaper as the new statement wall, used to create atmosphere instead of a moment
• Collected spaces that feel lived-in rather than decorated all at once

None of this required a big refresh or chasing something new. It’s the kind of design that rewards patience, good bones, and choosing things you actually love living with.

Trends come and go, but homes built this way tend to feel good for a long time.

If you’re saving this, you’re probably already doing more “right” than you think 🤍
