Heart Art //  I love the graphic nature of this oxblood hued art print.  … Read More

In the library I kept things simple.  Green garland draped across the mantel.  No lights.  No ornaments.  It is just having it’s own moment.  The stockings that I designed a few years back with Minda Living look like they were meant to be in this space.  Chloe is a little concerned that the stockings are in a separate room than the tree.  … Read More

wood painted ornaments 1 + 2 / blue and white ornaments / balloon dogs

Remember a few weeks ago I shared one of my new favorite ornament sources!? Well I am finally sharing where I used all of my new Kat & Annie Ornaments, in C’s room.  New room means new tree right?!  Well, in this case it definitely does.  … Read More
