Copper + Gold Boho Thanksgiving Table Ideas

This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission for any sales made through them. Full disclosure.

Thanksgiving is coming fast! Even though we are expecting our third baby any time now, there is still a chance we might host Thanksgiving dinner here. It would be potluck and my husband would cook the turkey, so that I can simply focus on our new baby…and making the house pretty for our guests. 

The creativity involved with that actually excites me no matter what is going on. I'm planning now how I want to do up the table should we decide to have our family here. This is what I came up with…my ideal version I suppose you could say.

38 Weeks and Counting

I have partnered with Burke Decor for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full disclosure.

On Sunday, I hit the 38 week mark in this pregnancy. This baby seems pretty content to just stay where she is. My first baby, Hazel, was born premature at 31 weeks and Owen was born at exactly 38. It looks like I might get to know what the 39th and 40th weeks of pregnancy are like with this one…maybe even beyond?

I am definitely nesting these days and spending as much time and energy as possible (which is fading fast) getting things ready around here for our baby girl.

Styling a Bed with Kilim Pillows

I have partnered with Kilim Pillow Store for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full disclosure.

I can never stop tweaking my decor. I love to change things up. And I have a *slight* obsession with throw pillows. Seriously…I have a closet full of pillow covers and inserts. It might be a little out of control…
Today, I am showing how easily I change out the vibe of our minimalist white bedroom with some textural throw pillows…whenever the mood strikes.

Wildflower Bohemian Baby

Our baby girl is due in less than a month! Hard to believe really, but then I know as soon as she arrives we will wonder how we ever got on without her. It is such an exciting time bringing a new person into the world.

It's been five years since I had a baby girl to shop for, and I have become a bit obsessed with looking for cute new finds for this one. There are so many adorable baby items out there, I just can't help myself. I have already purchased a few, and keep adding to my wish list. Today, I am sharing some of my favorites in a gathering of products in my current "boho baby" style love.

A Vintage Rug for the Kitchen & a Giveaway!

I have partnered with SF Rugs for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full disclosure.

I have been wanting a vintage rug in our kitchen for a long while and now I finally have one! Our kitchen renovation has been a very slowwww process to say the least, but we are still plugging away at it. Maybe it will be completely done by the time we put this place up for sale? Let's hope…

We started by painting our wooden cabinets light gray and adding hardware. It did make a huge difference to the look in here. Click here if you missed the BEFORE post.  

Choosing Curtains for the Bedroom

I have partnered with Budget Blinds for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full disclosure.

Choosing curtains seems like an easy thing to do, but for me, not so much. I have stalled on selecting a pair for our master bedroom for several months now. I would go shopping to look, but leave empty handed. I would look online, but couldn't decide what I really wanted. Finally, I found a set that I fell in love with from Budget Blinds.

A Father’s Gift of Time and a Giveaway!

I have partnered with Jord for this post and giveaway. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full Disclosure.

One of the best things about my husband, is the amount of time that he spends with our children. He not only loves and adores them, but goes out of his way to do special things with them often. One thing that they currently enjoy is geocaching. They find special "treasure boxes" hidden by other geocachers all over, then exchange little items for ones that they find inside. Both Hazel and Owen love this, but I think the most important part is the time they spend out exploring with their dad.

I knew I wanted to get Josh a unique Father's Day gift this year that fit his personality. He loves watches and time pieces (he actually makes Steampunk jewelry using vintage watch and pocket watch pieces), so I knew the wood watches from Jord would be a great gift idea for him.

Boho Eclectic Bedroom: Source List & Makeover Plans

I have partnered with Raymour & Flanigan for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. This post also contains some affiliate links for which I may receive a small commission. Full disclosure.

A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that my husband and I are finally going to focus on making a bedroom retreat for ourselves. We haven't had a dedicated bedroom since before having kids. After they were born it has served double duty with the other side taking on various roles such as baby nursery, storage room and art studio. Well, not anymore. We moved to the smaller of our two bedrooms and are now in the process of making the boho eclectic bedroom of my dreams.

Today, I am excited to share my makeover plans with you along with the products and decor that will be pulling together this "retreat."

Choosing a Rug for the Transition From Toddler to Big Girl

I have partnered with Rugs USA for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. 

My daughter Hazel will be five this summer. I can't believe how fast the time from toddler to preschooler went by. Her brother, Owen, was born when she was 15 months old, so she only had her own room for a very short period of time. For the past few years they have shared the smaller of our two bedrooms, but just recently, we moved them into the master bedroom to give them more space for toys and creating their own individual sides.

Hazel is so excited to have her own "big girl" room and we have been planning together how to decorate it. Today, I am sharing the first piece of the puzzle…her new area rug.

Here are some important facts about Hazel: she's a total girly-girl who loves pink and could play Barbies all day long. She tells me she wants her room to be "all pink and purple with Barbies and unicorns and rainbows and hearts and stars…" etc. etc. etc. She has a lot of ideas. Let me tell you.

Deer Antler Ring Holder

I have always loved jewelry and have a thing for finding unique ways to display all of it. A couple of weeks ago, I showed a glimpse into our new bedroom with some simple storage ideas for jewelry including a real deer antler.

I picked this antler up from an antique mall for $10 and decorated with it from time to time. Then when I saw this idea (affiliate link*) from Urban Outfitters, I knew that it was exactly what I wanted to do with it.

Design Crush: Mid-Century Sideboards & Consoles

I am currently loving all things mid century in home decor. Years ago, I would have said heck no to this style, but now I can't get enough. When we moved my grandparents HiFi record console into our living room, it added the exact vibe I was craving. Today, I am sharing some of my favorite mid-century inspired sideboards, buffets and consoles that I am crushing on.

I would love to add a mid century style buffet or sideboard to our dining room…if only space would allow. I love browsing Pinterest to see how others have styled them, which makes me long to have another one even more. The one that we have is very low, so my children often play with everything on it…which means I really don't have free reign, just yet, in how I decorate it.

Organizing Winter Gear without a Closet or Mudroom

Even though this winter has been a mild one for us, there have still been plenty of cold days requiring getting all bundled up before heading out. Unfortunately, without having a coat closet on the first floor, we are limited for storage of all of our gear. Today, I am sharing some solutions that have worked to help keep it all organized.

Our home, thankfully, has decent sized closets upstairs, but not even one downstairs! We do have a small "mudroom", that leads to the basement, off the back of the house, but we never use that entrance. The space is in pretty rough shape and it's very tight, so it's not practical for our daily use.

Neutral Bohemian Home Accents

I have always been a fan of neutral decor regardless of any current style trends. Neutral, in my mind, meaning a white, cream, tan, brown, gray and black color palette. Even as my style has evolved from rustic farmhouse to more eclectic bohemian in the past couple of years, I still find myself drawn to neutrals and love having them surround my home, now often punctuated with more colorful pieces. I am also a huge fan of texture. Neutrals + texture = pure heaven in my book!

Today, I am sharing some of my favorites pieces that fit the bill. I have several of these pieces in my own home so you can see first hand how I have incorporated them to fit my style.

DIY Advent Calendar & Festive Holiday Mantel

I have been sponsored by Command Brand and received product for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own, and all additional products selected were chosen by me. This post also contains affiliate links*. Read my full disclosure. 

Decorating for Christmas has always been a favorite pastime of mine. Some years, however, I let the pressure to have a "perfect holiday home" get to me, and lose the joy the season brings trying to get it all done. This year, instead of trying to tackle decorating our entire home and going over the top everywhere, I decided to focus on what would bring my children joy and fill their little hearts with wonder. What better way than a homemade advent calendar?

Today, I hope you are inspired by how I made it with some simple materials and I'm also excited to give you a glimpse of our festive mantel.

Rustic Bohemian Thanksgiving Tablescape

I have received product from Raymour & Flanigan in exchange for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full disclosure.

With Thanksgiving quickly approaching and devastating events taking place around the world, I have been spending a lot of time reflecting on all that I have to be grateful for. And there is so much. It is easy to get caught up in all of the "wish I had's" or "if only's" and lose sight of the blessings right in front of us. The beautiful real life I have right now. My little family, our health and the love we share.

That is what I plan to do this Thanksgiving:

See all of the big and little blessings in the here and now.

One blessing I had this past year, was the ability to give my dining room a mini redo thanks to the good folks at Raymour & Flanigan. If you have followed me for awhile, you may have seen my dining room before that only ever had thrift store and vintage finds.

That worked for awhile, but those pieces had definitely seen better days. I was really feeling it was time for some big changes furniture wise, which is when Josh and I headed out to see if we might find a brand new table that fit our style.

The Perfect Casual Seating Solution for Small Space Decorating

I have received product from Jonathan Louis in exchange for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own.

Small spaces can be some of the hardest to decorate. My living room has driven me all levels of crazy ever since we moved into this home in 2010 because of its awkward layout and small size. I am constantly rearranging pieces and swapping things in and out trying to find the solution to the design dilemma it poses.

Providing extra seating has been the trickiest problem for me. I can get a couch in here, but beyond that, I haven't known what to do. This has been the situation for several months, and today I am excited to share the perfect solution I found!

Rustic Bohemian Light Fixtures {under $300}

This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission from any sales made through them, but the cost to you does not change. Full Disclosure.

I have been trying to decide on a new light fixture for our living room for awhile now. The thing is…I am having a hard time nailing down exactly what style and finish I want. Eclectic? Rustic? Midcentury? Moroccan? Geometric? Wood? Beaded? Copper? Brass? Iron? There are so many options it almost feels impossible to decide some days. Then there is the factor of cost. Really beautiful and unique fixtures can be upwards of $2,000. Yikes! #aintnevergonnahappen.

I decided to do some looking online to start narrowing down styles that appeal to me to get the ball rolling. I have no idea yet what direction I will go in, but today I am sharing with you ten chandeliers and pendant lights that I think would fit perfectly with a rustic bohemian interior style. Each is under $300 (not including any additional fees like shipping or tax). I hope you enjoy these! Let me know your favorite at the end!

Casual Midcentury Bohemian {Living Room Design Inspiration}

This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission from any sales made through them, but the cost to you does not change. Full Disclosure.

It's always fun to dream about how you could decorate a space. Especially if you could start from scratch and money was no object, right? Today, I am doing just that with this "casual midcentury bohemian" mood board for a living room space. My living room is quite a bit different, but I love styling furniture and decor in a variety of ways. Hope you enjoy this curated collection!

I am increasingly drawn to midcentury style furnishings and decor. They are finding their way into my home little by little and are now the items I am seeking out when going to thrift stores and flea markets. I have allowed my inner "bohemian" style to infuse itself into every facet of our home for the past year, and I love the two styles pulled together into one cohesive, relaxed look.

New Rug for the Bedroom {sneak peek}

This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission from any sales made through them, but the cost to you does not change. Thanks for the support! Full Disclosure.

Today, I am so excited to give you a sneak peek of the new rug I recently purchased for our in-the-works bedroom makeover! I will actually be on a little getaway to Lake Placid when this post goes live, but I wanted to get it ready to show you before I left. Because I am seriously that in love with it. No joke. If you follow me on Instagram you may have already seen it, but if not, here it is…drum roll…

Finding affordable and awesome rugs can be tricky. I see so many rugs that I would love to own, but they are often way out of our budget. Even the vintage ones with wear and tear. I saw one recently at an antique store that had seen better days and it was still $175. A smaller one in better condition was $250. {Insert my sad face here as I walked away empty handed}.
