Be cheap yet chic when decorating your space!
I’ve been noticing on home decor blogs, in interior design magazines, and on Pinterest that there seems to be a great deal of using yellow and grey together as a color scheme when decorating a room. At first, I was kind of thrown off by this combo, but then it steadily started to grow on […]
[Continue reading...]I’ve noticed a trend among the images of kitchens and bathrooms I’ve saved over the years: they all somehow involve carrara marble countertops. Quarried in Tuscany, this marble is the ultimate in luxury! Unfortunately, carrara marble is pretty expensive ($60-$80 per square foot) and not in this nifty thrifty girl’s budget! It ages really well […]

Revamping this amazing dresser! I found it at my local Humane Society Thrift Store for $175. Though I don’t think it’s a real campaign dresser, it has great potential to look exactly like one! I would paint the yellow a gorgeous Kelly green (like this dresser here). I’d try to spray paint the hardware gold, […]
[Continue reading...]It’s been such a long week, y’all! Though we had Labor Day off, it still felt like the week was dragging on. But no more complaining…the weekend is here! I’m going swimming with the manatees tomorrow and I can’t wait! I’m a native Floridian, but I’ve never swam with the manatees, can you believe it? […]

What do you do or where do you go to gain inspiration for your projects? I know some people go for a run (yuck, I hate exercise), some take some quiet time to meditate, and others travel to a favorite place to inspire them. When I think of my design style and from what and […]
[Continue reading...]As I write this, I’m softly singing, “It’s the most wonderful time of the year…” No, it’s not Christmas; it’s not Victoria’s Secret’s Semi-Annual Sale. It’s the start of college football season! Here in the South, football dictates our weekend schedules. Planning a party? Make sure it’s not at game time. If it is, make […]
[Continue reading...]September is here, y’all, and with it, my favorite season: fall! To me, fall means Starbucks pumpkin lattes, SEC football, boots tucked into jeans, and beautiful décor in lovely autumn hues. I went to college in South Carolina, and it was there that I came to fully love fall. It was the first time I […]
[Continue reading...]Woohoo, it’s the weekend! And it’s the start of college football!!! I can’t wait to cheer on my beloved Gators this weekend as they play Bowling Green. What are your plans? I’m loving these items from around the Web. Make sure to check them out! 1. What an awesome idea! This desk/dresser combination is so […]
[Continue reading...]I love all white rooms! They’re so calming because of their crisp, clean feel. If you have children or pets, they’re not particularly practical (unless you have slip covers you can pull off and throw into the wash), but they’re so beautiful. Just because a room and its furniture is all white does not mean […]
[Continue reading...]As much as I love to decorate homes, I think I might love decorating tables more. I love creating tablescapes for holidays, birthdays, or just an ordinary Tuesday night dinner. I share this love of decorating my table with my mom who always used her wedding china and crystal, even if it wasn’t a special […]
