I get asked a lot about the paint colors that we use in our home. While I always love switching things up with a coat of paint, we mainly used four colors on the walls in our home. Three of them are Sherwin Williams white paint colors and I wanted to share them with you since they're tried and true favorites of mine! Ivory Lace by Sherwin Williams - We used this color in our foyer and entire second floor. Although I don't show much of those spaces (yet) this color is a winner. Sherwin ...

Antique Dough Box Planter
I'm all about giving old vintage pieces a new useful purpose. I stumbled into this antique dough box on legs and just knew that it needed to be used in a new special way. Now let's be real, I'm probably not going to be using an antique dough box for its original purpose because well...we've come a long way since this beauty was originally made. I love finding new ways to use pieces like this because I love thinking creatively and maybe making a smaller carbon footprint by buying re-used. ...
French Country Inspired Bedroom Furniture
You guys! I finally have grown-up furniture and I can't tell you how good it feels. Up until now, Eli & I have been rocking my childhood bedroom furniture and it was definitely time for an upgrade. I can't tell you how "adult" I feel about this and I'm so excited because I'm actually in love with the set I found online! We saved some money the past few months and invested in some good quality furniture pieces for our bedroom. I waited for a sale (and free shipping) and bit the bullet ...
Easy and Stunning Antique Weathered Wood Look for Furniture
I think I found a new favorite product. I've been looking high and low for a way to lighten dark/orange wood tone pieces and I'm so excited to say, I found it. Here's how we created the antique weathered wood look on our bedroom furniture! Last week, Eli and I got new nightstands and a dresser. I'm hoping to share all about them in a separate post in the coming weeks but for now, I want to share how I freshened them up a bit. Now I know what you're thinking..."Sarah, why the heck are you ...
Packing Light for a Beach Vacation
I'm definitely one of those girls that refuses to check luggage or over-pack for vacation. I can honestly say, I used to be the complete opposite but recently I've found a good system that works for me and saves a bit of time in the airport. First things first: Have a game plan. I like to start by picking out the "bottoms" that I'm packing for vacation. This allows me to easily make outfits! For beach trips, I always pack a denim pair (or two, if there's room) along with a white or black ...
Two Ways to Style a Coffee Table
Sometimes I just like removing decor from a space and putting it back together in a new way. Call me crazy and I won't be offended. I love to play around with decor and get creative! I thought it would be fun to put together a post sharing two different ways that I recently styled our round coffee table. I'm not going to fake it here....I struggle with this spot so much. I think the shape of our coffee table makes it harder to style that a square or rectangular option. Nonetheless, I came ...
