A Bewitching London Home Tour

My husband and I returned from our September trip to London more in love with the beautiful city than ever.  As the two of us worked together to prepare our London summer travel vlog over the last few weeks, I found myself missing the city something fierce.  This London home tour is therefore coming at the perfect time.  I might not be able to make a trip over to my favorite city in the next few months, but I can reminisce and live vicariously through this stunning London flat.

A Bohemian Home Tour

Have you ever come across a home that is so inherently you that you can’t help but fall madly in love with it?  The gorgeous Seattle abode that I’m sharing in today’s bohemian home tour is that property for me.  I could pack up my belongings, move right in and be totally and completely comfortable in this carefree, gorgeously appointed home.  I’ll venture a guess that you might all agree with me after viewing the rest of it.  It’s hard not to fall head over heels in love with this one.

A Vibrant London Home Tour

In anticipation of my trip to London later this year (I’m a little excited, okay?), I’m immersing myself in all things British. What better way to add a bit of the UK to our day than with a fabulous London home tour? The gorgeous home I’m sharing with you today is equal parts refined and quirky. It’s historical, it’s vibrant, it’s endearing, and it has personality to spare.

London Home Tour Open Plan

This open concept kitchen/dining/family room is nothing short of my dream space. It’s bold and bright and I can’t help but want to settle into that white couch for a cozy afternoon at home.

Musings on Momentum and Better Homes & Gardens!

I am overjoyed to share some very exciting news with you all today. A do-it-yourself project that I completed last year, my DIY Anthropologie Mirrors, has been featured in a roundup of Anthropologie-inspired DIYs by Better Homes & Gardens!

As a longtime fan of Better Homes & Gardens, being included in this group of fantastic projects is nothing short of a dream. Growing up I used to pour over my mother’s copies of the magazine, visualizing and planning my future home. In fact, I still have multiple bound notebooks worth of inspiration from BHG that I collected long before Pinterest came into existence in my childhood bedroom. To now be even the tiniest part connected to the publication feels surreal.

DIY Storage Jars

It’s no secret that I have a bit of an affinity for cute and practical storage (see exhibit A) so it should come as no surprise that tackling our kitchen’s lack of useful storage solutions was at the top of my priority list for our mini kitchen makeover. These DIY storage jars are the perfect answer to my storage woes, providing ample space for a few choice dry goods all the while adding a serious dose of style to our countertop at a budget friendly price (the entire project cost under $20!).
