Making Your Living Space Work For You

Have you ever looked around your house and something just didn’t feel right? You couldn’t quite put your finger on it, but you just knew there was a better way? Perhaps a better way to arrange the furniture or a coffee table that just isn&#8217…

Fighting For the Simple Life

I’m about to show my age, but when I was in college, there was a brief reality show starring Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie called The Simple Life. It was a ridiculous account of two rich, city girls trading in their socialite lives for a short period of…

Date Night In Review: Blind Date

Y’all, this is our second month of Date Night In and it’s really and truly so much fun. I receive this box for free to share with you guys, but if they stopped their affiliate program, I’d hand my money over in a heartbeat…

Where Did You Buy That?

Christmas is (almost) here…

Okay, who are we kidding? Christmas started making its way onto IG before November even began! And I wasn’t even mad about it! My quick decor advice: buy ornaments at Hobby Lobby and then run to Walmart for everything else. And run there quickly because Walmart’s…

The IG Hashtag Drama and What You Can Do

Earlier this week, The Design Twins published a blog about the hashtag games. You can read it here. Honestly, I was a bit relieved when I read it. I’ve had a love/hate with hosting hashtags for awhile now (did I really admit that out loud?). I&#8217…

Are You Making These Mistakes on Instagram?

I wouldn’t be writing a home decor blog if it weren’t for IG. And it seems sorta crazy that it’s only been a year that I’ve been apart of the fun and supportive IG community. IG inspires me on a daily basis…
