I just love the Little Women movie — the 1994 version. We're talking Winona Ryder as Jo. We're talking Christian Bale as Laurie. It's one of my favorite holiday rewatches! The original book takes place in a quiet Massachusetts town in the 1860s, and I just picture their home as continually wintery. I heard someone […]
This post is sponsored by Wayfair. Black Friday is a great time to pick up gifts for others, but it's also a great time to discover new home decor for yourself. Wayfair is one of my go-to places for both holiday and non-holiday decor, and this Black Friday they have gone DEEP with markdowns — […]
Even as an adult, there's something so fun about the back-to-school season. I love decluttering desks, packing backpacks, and filling lunch boxes — it feels like everything topsy-turvy about summer is rooted in routine again. Greta is headed off to high school this year (how did that happen so fast!?), and Faye and Polly are […]
We're coming to the end of Week 3 of Summer School: Home Styling 101! Today I want to share some living room interiors that have stopped my scroll with their use of color, texture, and styling. This is somewhat beyond the realm of what conventionally falls under styling, but something I've been really looking for […]
Shop The Living Room Here's the honest truth: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Something that looks beautiful to me is going to look different from something that looks beautiful to you. We all have our own tastes. And early on, I realized that it's not enough for me to look at something […]
I'm not exactly sure when or how it happened, but somehow, seemingly on accident, I've accumulated a burgeoning collection of one of my favorite home decor elements—coffee table books. My love for beautiful visuals and inspiring reads had unintentionally blossomed into a full-fledged collection. And lately, they've evolved into one of the most versatile home […]
It's my favorite time of the year!– Back to school. Anybody else? I just love the feeling of a fresh start. It's also when I can take some time to get the home back in order from the chaos of summer, so I thought I would share a few ideas on how to get the […]
Wicker home decor is in no way new, however, more and more, I'm seeing it become a versatile material in all home styles! It used to be associated strictly with coastal, and more recently, it's been used in the boho style, but now we're starting to see it in all kinds of home styles, including […]
There was a time when I would use the smallest grocery store vases that came with the grocery store bouquets. You know what I'm talking about–the clear glass ones you hold onto for too long, but they really just collect dust. It wasn't until I upgraded my vases that I realized these are more than […]
Whether you're trying to think of a gift for your BFF or partner or sister who'd rather buy a pillow than a shirt (any day!!), or you're headed to a party and don't want to go empty handed, this list is perfect, with prices ranging from under $15 and up! 1. A marble fruit bowl she'd […]
We live in a pretty remote area of the country, in a small town in Idaho. So while we love to support our local economy through grocery shopping, eating out, and frequenting the hardware stores 8 times a week, when it comes to furnishing and decorating our home, I would say 90% of it comes […]
We generally post gift guides closer to Black Friday, but when Lulu & Georgia asked if I would be interested in curating a gift guide for the Home Lover as a part of their 12 Days Of Giveaways, I jumped at the chance. It's taken Chris a few years to realize that the best gifts […]
