Tips To Make Your Bedroom An Oasis

Summer — Thu, 29 Sep 2022 22:45:07 +0000

I’m so glad that I get to share my master bedroom with you today in our new home, here in South Carolina! I’ve teamed up with Walmart again to focus on self-care (one of my favorite things these days) and to share with you some tips to make your bedroom an oasis. Maybe turn on some relaxation music and sit back and read this…ha!

There are a few things I needed to create a bedroom oasis. I needed comfort and coziness, relaxing scents, and lots of glam! I made some fun changes and additions to my bedroom in this new house.

It’s imperative to keep your linens clean and fresh. I ordered these crisp white sheets for the bedroom. There’s nothing like the feeling of new sheets when climbing into your bed at the end of the day. Am I right?!

Sheets, bedding, duvet covers, pillows…all essential layers to create comfort in your oasis.

When I think of relaxation, I think of soothing essential oils. I love the way they smell in a diffuser so I bought this floral diffuser and put it next to my bed.

I added enough drops of the essential oils to coat the rope inside and within 30 min there was a heavenly and relaxing aroma from the diffuser. No water needed. Isn’t that cool?! So it smells good all the time without having to plug something in or burn a toxic candle.

Really loving this idea! It also doubles as a pretty piece of decor as well.

Layered bedding, throw blankets, and plush pillows create a cozy place to lounge and give that feeling of relaxation in any bedroom.

I love ruffles and large euro pillows. Neutral colors and white bedding create a very calm atmosphere.

That sunburst mirror though…..the perfect glam accent!

Tip: To create an inviting bed that looks extra comfortable, put a down comforter (or down alternative – this one is luxurious) in your duvet cover or under a quilt AND also put a second one in another duvet cover at the foot of your bed. Large home retailers do this to add layers of plushness.

Every woman needs a pretty place (with a pretty mirror) where they can sit and get ready each day. I turn on music, listen to podcasts, do my hair and makeup…it’s a great way to start my day!

I wanted a really beautiful and modern bench and this was the perfect fit, the moment I saw it! White leather, high arms, comfortable…I’m obsessed!

My bench before was pretty but it was time for an update and if I truly wanted to make this bedroom an oasis, it had to have more of a modern glam feel. This bench with the ivory velvet and gold legs that this was “the one” as soon as I saw it. Also, Gracie loves the height of the bench and makes it super easy for her to hop up on the bed.

To finish off any space and to create the perfect oasis in your bedroom, you need fabulous lighting! I wanted a really glamorous chandelier and the minute I saw this beaded chandelier, it stopped me in my scroll. It was perfection!

Walmart has ALL your essentials to creating the perfect bedroom oasis and helping you focus on self-care and your best sleep! They have mattresses, pillows, blankets, and other accessories in their One-stop Sleep Shop. I’m linking the products I used above and also below. Is your bedroom an oasis? If not, treat yourself! You deserve it!

Glam Modern Home Office With Blush Accents

Summer — Sat, 30 Jul 2022 23:08:34 +0000

I’ve finally unpacked our very last box, after moving into our new home here in South Carolina! My office was such a chore that I saved it for the last, ha! It’s summertime and we’ll be traveling and also having visitors so I needed this done ASAP. It was worth the wait though because I teamed up with Walmart again to focus on another space in my home. Today I’m sharing my new glam modern home office with hints of blush. Maybe this will inspire you to do update or refresh your home office for the summer! Switch out some pieces, some art, books, or candles. Let me show you!

Welcome to my office! Gracie is joining me today because….well…she can’t leave my side EVER! Anyone else feeling my pain these days?

Since I’ve decided to share an office with Josh in this house, I gave him my old white desk and bought myself this new white and gold desk with drawers and I love it!

We won’t be showing you Josh’s side of the office because it’s nothing too exciting (just a plain white desk and office chair and computer) but I intend on doing some frame prints for him to match my side. His will not be feminine prints like mine but in these same frames I used and probably prints of golf courses he loves.

This gold and white adjustable rolling office chair is soooo comfortable and has that look I wanted.

Walmart had so many great office accessories like this pink MacBook laptop case, gold pencil holder, gold beaded candle holder (that I use as a coaster for my glass),a pretty glass case to hold paperclips and other things, and this candle jar-turned flower vase. I like to get creative and find other uses for items. Oh! And don’t forget the sparkly pens (here, here, and here)!

I like to keep this blush tassel tote full of my favorite books, scriptures, and notebooks so that I can take it with me to another room in the house easily or when I leave the house.

These étagère shelves (here and here) are some that I’ve wanted for a while but waited till we moved. I love the shape of them and with all my nesting boxes (I’ve had them for 5 years), it holds all the things I want/need in my office in a decorative way.

Besides these shelves being practical, they’re great to also display decor. I used preserved roses, my favorite candles for the summer, wick trimmer, more candles-turned fresh flower vases, gold orb, designer books (like here, here, and here), and framed prints.

Ginger jars and flower stems just seem to a staple of mine in every room. I love having floral accents! My dresser is vintage but I found some really cute ones here and here on Walmart’s website. Dressers are another great way to store accessories, books, important papers, etc.

Ok friends, leave me a comment and let me know how you’re going to freshen up your office space this summer with Walmart! Not only did they have these fabulous items but they have so many great items from their new WOW & NOW section (in select stores) that went live on July 19th! They also have a fabulous section, the Summer Home Lookbook. Did you see my summer hangout spot I did for my teens? It’s a must-see! They eat breakfast and lunch there every single day…it’s the cutest!

Hope y’all are having the best summer! You can shop the items below!

Spa Blue Guest Bedroom

Summer — Fri, 28 Jan 2022 20:12:02 +0000

Well, it’s been six months since we moved into our new home here in South Carolina and I’m excited to team up with Walmart for another room reveal! Here’s how I created this serene spa blue guest bedroom.

Affiliate links are included in this post. Click here to read my full disclosure policy and here for my privacy & cookies policy.
{All opinions are my own.}

I bought this cute sunburst mirror and put it over the bed when we first moved in (tall gold lamps brought from the guest bedroom of the other house) for the time being but notice, as I go through the transformation of this room, how it didn’t feel quite right anymore for this space and color palette. It’s so cute though that I’m putting it somewhere else.
{Headboard here or here | Nightstands | Mirror | Chandelier | Drawer Pulls]

How To Make Your Bed With A Layered Look

So since I’m sharing the transformation of this bedroom, it’s probably a good time to show you how I add layers of bedding to make it cozy and to look like they do it in stores. First, mattress cover and sheets.

I added a white duvet with down duvet insert. This was actually one I’d previously bought with blue stitching but you won’t see that so I used it anyway.

I loved this spa blue quilt and shams I found in the Walmart Home section. I always score good finds but I really loved this. Such a serene color for this room! Hang with me. I know this looks weird but there’s a reason to layer….

I like to fold it down but not all the way, back, and then fold it down again.

Next, I folded the down comforter down, just over the edge of the quilt and showing the sheets. This is where it’s helpful to make sure your sheets are fresh out of the dryer or ironed. Wrinkly sheets wouldn’t look good ha!

Fold down the top part/cuff of your flat sheet and tuck them in on the sides, under the mattress. I fold it down just to where the fold of the duvet cover begins. Add white pillows for sleeping.

Add matching spa blue pillow shams.

I also scored the cutest throw pillows for this bed, looking through Walmart Home items. These were PERFECT!

They had darling little poms all over.

I’m seriously loving this color!

Ok….Here’s where I’m not diggin’ the bright gold in this room. So I made a change.

A muted gold would’ve been fine but I decided to grab {two of the three} the spa blue chinoiserie panels from my hallway and put them above each nightstand. The third went to hang in the closet. I also had a vintage floral wall decor piece that I added some silver leaf Rub ‘N Buff to, as to mute the gold. I also brought mercury glass lamps in from my bedroom (similar here) and swapped them out. You still have muted gold in the chandelier and drawer pulls but I love that. Yes, it’s okay to mix.

Oh! I also grabbed this darling white floral essential oil diffuser as well (just like I bought for my bedroom) because instead of an obnoxious or toxic wallflower or candle, you can have a healthy (and decorative) option for your guests to keep that feeling going in this serene spa blue guest bedroom.

What do ya think? I super love it! I love the color palette, the fabulous bedding I found at Walmart, and the panels were perfect because I want to wallpaper this room and this is great for now.

Thanks so much to my friends at Walmart for another great collaboration! Have you been following their site and all the fabulous lines they’re introducing? See my past posts for more great Walmart collabs, some of my favorite things, and make sure to check out their site for more great home decor items at a really affordable price. I love how much I can get for my money and be able to transform an entire room while staying on a budget.

Entry Way with Spa Blue Christmas Tree

Summer — Tue, 30 Nov 2021 11:00:14 +0000

Soooo excited for today! It’s my very first Christmas tour of the season and I’m participating in the Holiday Home Tour, hosted by 11 Magnolia Lane, and Evolution of Style, and we are sharing different spaces in our home all week. A huge WELCOME to any newbies coming from The Pink Clutch Blog with Paige. She’s so fun and I love her style! This time of year is busy BUT festive and. filled with joy and magical memories being made. It’s especially wonderful this year as we’ve moved from Vancouver, WA to Lexington, SC and LIFE IS GOOD! Your first Christmas in a new home is always special. Today I’m sharing the very first space you walk in to, in our new home…my entry way with spa blue Christmas tree.

Affiliate links are included in this post. Click here to read my full disclosure policy and here for my privacy & cookies policy. {All opinions are my own.}

Gracie and I would like to virtually invite you to enter into our entry. Funny note…I forgot to grab the red ribbon on Saturday for my front porch and so I just photoshopped all this red ribbon onto the wreath and trees and on to Gracie too….ha! I’ll change it out tomorrow.
(Set of trees | Similar mat | wreath from HomeGoods | Wreath Door Hanger | Gift Box)

I brought back the spa blue tree (seen here last year) because I loved it so much! THIS LINK contains all the links to what I used on my tree so make sure to pin that post as well.

Immediately to your right, I have a tradition of placing all my pretty mercury glass trees along my entry table and they all light up at night! It’s so magical!
(Glass Trees | Mirror | Faux Fur Runner)

I’ll probably do something completely different next year but I’ve loved displaying this elegant forest of trees.

I made this cute little swag for my favorite mirror. Just grab some garland, Christmas floral picks, and some pretty ribbon. Twist that floral wire and make it all look right. Maybe you keep it simple or fill it like crazy or somewhere in between. They are fun to make. I hang mine with 3M sticky hooks. Make sure to let it stick for a few hours (follow directions) before you hang the swag on it so that it doesn’t crash. I may or may not be speaking from experience (wink wink) – last year.

This collection of gift boxes and gift wrap from (Sugar Paper for Target last year) was so gorgeous and I wish they were selling it again this year. Sadly, they’re not BUT click on that link because they have gorgeous options this year. I couldn’t believe they were launching this collection the same year I’d decided to use this spa blue color for my entry. Talk about meant to be!!!

While I prefer a large, fuller tree, this space (and just like my last space) could only fit a slim tree. My 12′ slim flocked tree is so tall and perfect for any tall entry but I’ll have to photograph it in 2 or more shots.

I grabbed the most gorgeous Christmas ribbon (see this post) and layered it with a mesh tinsel ribbon for an extra touch and then tucked it from top to bottom, in a diagonal twisting fashion. You can clip your ribbon there if you want but my tree is so tight that it stuck in their just fine.

I love mixing the champagnes and golds and silvers throughout my tree. It gives it so much more dimension.

These spa blue poinsettias here look perfect mixed with white Christmas floral.

This is a sparkly tree topper from Target last year but they have other pretty ones HERE.

Last year I used really thick garlands for my stairs and I looooved them. However, the family that built our home 2 years ago, and then sold it to us, didn’t put outlets up the stair case or at the beginning and end either. EEK!!!

Instead, I chose some simple flocked unlit garlands that I could easily wrap some battery-operated lights around.

It’s worked perfectly and was easy to strap to the banisters with clear zip ties.

Use the same ribbon you’re using on your entry tree OR if you don’t have an entry tree, use a beautiful neutral ribbon to make bows and place throughout the banister.

Another tip: If you use red in your other trees then you can choose red on your banister. Or if you use blue or gold, etc…use that color to help it look seamless.
(Staircase chandelier)

I love this view at the top and I’m thrilled with this chandelier we put in the entry!
See that tree in the right corner? We never found the other one after the move, as they used to sit on my front porch, so why not stick another tree in the entry? Ha! I’ll prob move it into the dining room.

I’m so grateful to have been able to find a home when we moved here that had a tall entry for my very tall tree, as we’d built our last home with an open tall entry in mind and were excited for a tall tree in the entry. As building would’ve taken almost 2 years, we really lucked out when we found this home. It’s the little things! I would’ve hated to have gotten rid of this tree or my entry mirror. Glad it worked out.

Ok there are some fabulous homes to continue to visit on our tour today! Please hop on over next to Home By Heidi and see her gorgeous home!

Ok,the “Beautiful” line by Drew Barrymore at Walmart is soooo gorgeous!!! Have you seen it? WOW!

This blender was a must-have. I have another heavy duty blender but I don’t need to use it every single time I’m blending. This is so pretty I could keep it out on the counter.

How many of you have an old crockpot that needs to be replaced? Mine still worked but it was an eye-sore. I’m obsessed with this one from Drew Barrymore’s “Beautiful” line as well.

Here are some other gorgeous pieces from the Beautiful line. Some were out of stock for a couple weeks but they’re back in stock so HURRY and ORDER them now! I have the dutch oven, the air fryer, and the toaster on the way as well and they’ll look so pretty in my soon-to-be renovated kitchen. The prices them make the best gift ideas for the home or the homemaker too!

Black & White Halloween Table With Affordable Dinnerware

Summer — Thu, 21 Oct 2021 20:44:09 +0000

Today I’m revealing my dining room for the first time here in our new home in South Carolina! I’ve teamed up, once again, with my friends at Walmart to share it in a fun way during this holiday season. Check out this fun black and white Halloween table with affordable dinnerware that I brought home, and some great pieces, to create this look!

Affiliate links are included in this post. Click here to read my full disclosure policy and here for my privacy & cookies policy. {All opinions are my own.}

I’m so thrilled to be back in a home that has a formal dining room, separate from our other dining space….especially when we are entertaining and like to keep adults separate from the teens. It’s been great! Over on IG stories I’ll share what this room looked like when we moved in.

Now, I have a lot of dinnerware and try to find sets that won’t break the bank. Everyone should be able to afford nice plates and bowls that you can use every day. I found these 2 fabulous sets at Walmart…a black set of dinner plates, salad plates, and bowls and then a black and white dotted set with a gold rim. I actually bought 2 sets of each to have 8 settings total of each variation.

I just love them! Aren’t they pretty?! And so great for every day use or to even dress up a bit. Ok so I had fun. I mixed and matched them to create a beautiful Halloween table but honestly…take out the pumpkins and you can use these all year round!

Ok so here’s how I created my table. First, create a runner down the middle with some decor. I used velvet pumpkins, some black branches and a couple spooky crows. No tablecloth this time but you can certain throw one on there.

I layered a black dinner plate with a dotted salad plate next.

Then I layered a black bowl with a dotted bowl.

These white dinner napkins are great to use over and over again and throw in the wash. How cute is this jeweled spider napkin ring?!!! It was a perfect touch for Halloween!

Great stemware like this with a gold rim is an essential for my tablescapes.

I love gold flatware so I used more of a modern set for this table.

Isn’t it a great combo with both of these sets layered?!

Then I decided to change it up and switch out my plates, using the dotted on the bottom and I liked it even more. Fun right?! The napkin seemed to pop more.

I even found a black fascinator hair clip (cut off the netting) and put it on my velvet pumpkin for an added touch.

This was so easy and so fun, being able to mix and match this set.

I love this glam modern look and like I said…take out the Halloween decor and add some candlesticks or something else in the middle for an every day tablescape.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you know I always have a hot cocoa bar cart every fall and winter and apothecary jars make a cute and functional way to display everything.

I’m so pleased with the way my black and white Halloween table with affordable dinnerware from Walmart turned out! Walmart Home products have been my go-to for great home decor and kitchen items lately and I love going to see what new things they carry on their site. The last few months I’ve finished my master bedroom, my office, and our screened patio space with items from their website as well so make sure to check those out! What have been your favorite pieces you’ve found there lately?

Outdoor Summer Hangout Spot

Summer — Tue, 29 Jun 2021 20:24:53 +0000

Soooo….we did a thing. WE MOVED TO SOUTH CAROLINA!!! WooHoo!!! Y’all (I’ve never stopped saying y’all since we left Texas), it feels soooo good to be back in The South after 4 years in the Pacific Northwest! We belong in the sunshine. It is good for my soul. I’m excited to share with you our new chapter of life here and how I make this home my very own. Let’s start with the back patio, our sunroom….shall we?! I’m teaming up with my friends at Walmart to create the perfect little corner, a fun outdoor summer hangout spot, and my teens are especially loving it!

{Affiliate links are included in this post. Click here to read my full disclosure policy and here for my privacy & cookies policy. All opinions are my own.}

This patio is a good size and the other side of it is still being set up, as we are unpacking boxes right now, but I wanted to make this little corner for my teens to hang out. I didn’t really understand the necessity for sun rooms here until we moved in. One word….mosquitoes…ha! So the screens are so lovely and helpful and we can still be outside and relax and eat and enjoy being in nature. I wanted really comfy chairs for my kids and I knew they loved these egg pod chairs so I was thrilled to see Walmart had them for such a great price. I might want a couple more but for now, it’s great for both my teens to each have or for one of them and a friend to come out and relax on.

To create this space I started with this great, neutral outdoor rug. It’s smooth, not hard and scratchy like some, was very affordable, and looks like it washes off easily.

These egg pod chairs are not only super duper comfortable but their price was better than others I’d found. I grabbed some darling yellow-striped pillows to add a fun pop of color.

I needed some greenery and found the cutest faux lemon tree, also a fraction of the price of other ones I’ve compared online, and it fit perfectly into one of my existing pots. It also went my little lemon theme I had planned.

Walmart has so many fun items for this summer! Not only for outside but for decorating the interior of your home and also tabletop items. I had to have this lovely aqua dinnerware set. I sliced some lemons and sparkling water, although most Southerners here would probably choose sweet tea. It’s a staple here.

Since I’m still unpacking boxes galore, grabbing some lemon treats from Walmart’s bakery and adding lemon pieces for garnish was a better alternative to save me from baking from scratch. I love how cute the yellow desserts were on these aqua dishes! This was a fun way to present this area to my kiddos. They loved this whole set-up and would be so cute on your table or patio area while entertaining this summer!

Isn’t this fun?! Even though it’s super hot here, this patio stays cool and now I’ve been able to create the perfect spot for my teens (or for Josh and I) to come escape to and spend time together. Do you have an outdoor summer hangout spot for your family? I can’t wait to see them out here together. I already spotted them out here having lunch together and it made my mama heart so happy. You can check out all the cute Walmart summer items HERE and put together your very own space or order some items to add a fun splash of summer to your home!

Elegant Blue And Pink Spring Home Tour

Summer — Fri, 20 Mar 2020 10:00:05 +0000

My dear friends!!!! Hello!!!! Can I please start off by saying THANK YOU for being here today for my spring tour and can I give you a big ‘ole virtual hug?!!! There’s a lot of crazy chaos in the world this week. I know we are all having to hunker down and stay safe and learn what “social-distancing” means. Life around the world looks gloomy for so many but I’m hoping we can bring you a little bit of SUNSHINE and inspiration today as I start off here (or maybe you’re continuing along the path from another friend’s blog) with my elegant blue and pink spring home tour!

Affiliate links are included in this post. Click here to read my full disclosure policy and here for my privacy & cookies policy. All opinions are my own.

Elegant Blue And Pink Spring Kitchen

I’ll go ahead and link the items I used (or similar/suggested items) at the bottom of each section. Please click on Home Tour above (or on the 3 lines above first) for links to paint/flooring info or original home sources.

I loved using pink and green in my kitchen and living room last spring and summer but went back to pink and blue this year and I’m loving it as well! I mean…pink and any color would be the cutest color combo because we all know (in case you’re new here) that pink is my absolute favorite color ever and complements ever other color beautifully, right?!

Big pops of blue, like this beautiful bread board, were a great spring addition. I love how it looks layered with my other boards as well.

I also brought back my beautiful pink and blue runner inside from storage and moved it into the kitchen for the kitchen (I used it in my entry last spring and summer). I’m sooo in love with this rug and the quality of it. Linked below as well.

Forgive my super bright sunshine but it was the only time I had to do my photography this week and, living in the Pacific Northwest, I was just doing a happy dance that we were receiving so much sunshine! Ha! Anyway, I love to create fun vignettes against my bright white kitchen. I also love my little tea spot on the left of my range with teacups. The small pink ginger jar has sachets of tea in it. It’s a fun way to display the tea, as is the stacked teacups on the cake stand.

I like pulling out my recipe books that coordinate with my color palette for the season and use them in my vignettes, along with cake stands and great faux florals.

Elegant Blue And Pink Spring Dining Area

These are my favorite faux peonies and I bought a ton of them online (lined below) a couple of summers ago and literally put them everywhere in my house during the spring and summer. I mix the lighter and darker pinks and some white too.

They make a beautiful centerpiece on their own or in two’s and three’s. Tip: You can take off some of the green leaves so it’s not overkill on the greenery if you want! Also, make sure you put some soft green foam on the bottom inside so that the floral arrangements will hold, as the stems are rather thin and then you’ll also get the arrangement looking exactly like you want it to.

I found these beautiful vases at Perigold last year and they’re sold out. I pulled them out again for a lovely symmetrical look, long faux cherry blossom stems, and a vignette of place settings stacked on my buffet to add color.

It doubles as decor and is functional to use also!

Elegant Blue And Pink Spring Living Room

What a SUNNY day! Wow! I had no idea until I downloaded these pics haha!

You’ll notice some of these pics have two styles of pillows and then the next day, my new pillows arrived (much earlier than I expected actually and I’m super loving them – the tassel boho ones in the corner) so I took some more and added them. They’re from Marshall’s by Patina Vie if you want to look for them when stores open back up. I’ll link the other two below. Their online store is down right now.

Ok, so Gracie is our newest little fluff ball of LOOOOOVE!!! We are puppy training and seriously obsessed and sooooo in loooove with her!!! So try not to be distracted (I double-dog dare you haha) as she tries to be Vanna White and model the new pillows for you!

I moved this little slipper chair in from the guest bedroom and moved over the little side table to add another pop of blue. Kind of fun right?! I almost bought another one and put them side by side but didn’t think it was necessary for just spring and summer. Do you spy a sleeping pup? Awwwww!

Sending you all lots of puppy snuggles and kisses!!!!! xoxo

Hey friends! Today I’m sharing my Amazon Favorite Finds with you and a group of friends are sharing theirs too and I’ll have them tagged at the bottom of the post. They all have fabulous taste so I can’t wait to see what items made their lists. So this is one of my favorite posts because, like most of you probably do, I order from Amazon several times a week. I would say I’m probably on Amazon 6-7 days a week looking for something and adding it to my cart. I can’t believe that I’m admitting that but it’s the truth. We depend on Amazon, y’all! So here we go…here are my Amazon Favorite Finds from home decor, fashion and beauty, Keto food faves, to pet toys and essentials.
