Best of 2018

Well, hello and Happy New Year! It’s been a while since my last post and I’m so excited to pop in from break. I have been enjoying some nice family time as we relax and recoup from the holidays and I hope you have been able to as well. Today, I’m joining a fun group of bloggers to bring you the Best of 2018! We will all be sharing our most popular posts from the last 12 months with you guys and trust me, there are some incredible projects to look at. This year was one of my favorite years for the blog. I took a lot of risks with content this year, I did some bigger remodel work and it’s been really fun to stretch myself with design. It’s funny though the projects that really take off on the blog. They aren’t always the ones that take the most time some times it’s the simple ones that you all enjoy the most.

It’s the time of year when most of you are putti It’s the time of year when most of you are putting away your outdoor furniture to prepare for the winter… but this is actually when we use our backyard the most! Hot tub nights, dinner outside, computer days at the table and relaxing on the new U-shaped sectional. These are the most perfect fall days. We leave all our furniture out year round, it’s the only furniture I’ll own, no matter the climate. 

Comment OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture set up!

Watch until you see it all lit up at the end!!! I Watch until you see it all lit up at the end!!! I add a little bit more decor every year and this year all my new Halloween finds are from @grandinroad ! The fun witch legs are my favorite, but I actually love the little skull wreaths so much too. Wait, the light up spider webs on the trees are also the perfect addition. I have to say, this year’s decor definitely takes the win! Almost time for trick or treaters!

Exterior Update! It’s been a long time coming! W Exterior Update! It’s been a long time coming! We had these custom gas copper lanterns made by @bevolo to bring the perfect blend of timeless craftsmanship and character to our beautiful stone and brick exterior. 🤎 they are exactly what we envisioned! STUNNING. From the custom design to the warm, flickering glow after dark, every detail works together to create a look that feels both elevated and inviting. 

We couldn’t be happier with how our custom lanterns turned out. They bring the perfect finish touches to our exterior. My favorite part of our house just got even better. The happiness I feel every time I see them flickering in the night ❤️
