Holiday Decor: A Work in Progress!

Christmas decor, lifestyle blog, holiday wreath, christmas tree

Last week was crazy for us; work was long and arduous, personal commitments filled our free time, and day-to-day tasks occupied any time and attention we had left. In between it all, we continued to ready our apartment for the holiday season. As mentioned in a previous post about my inspiration for this year’s decor… Read More Holiday Decor: A Work in Progress!

Holiday Decor Inspiration

Window Shop in Downtown: If you’re still itching to get your shop on after hitting up The Tannery, head back downtown to Market Square to look at the amazing window displays. Be sure to head into favorites like Soak, Partridge in a Bear Tree, Ireland on the Square, Urban Elements, and Vaalbara Supply.

I don’t know if it’s because I recently turned 30, or a flurry of inspiration from my recent following of a slew of interior designers on Instagram, but this holiday season is involving an ousting of ornamentation, a decor disruption, a refurbishing of furnishes per say. It’s time for a holiday decor updates! Gone are… Read More Holiday Decor Inspiration

Well, hello again! Thanksgiving this year was certainly different than what we expected. We did make the most of it through good food, family video calls, and giving thanks for what we have. Though we couldn’t have family around this year, Sarah did a great job setting up the tablescape making it feel like Thanksgiving and have a homey vibe.
During this time at home we continue to do little decorating/styling projects. This past weekend we worked on styling a decorative ladder. It was a small project, but fun. While going through and styling the ladder, Sarah thought it’d be fun to show how you can add/or remove pieces to fit different styles like boho, minimalist, and seventies minimalism. To see more details on this, check out the latest blog post using the link in the bio.
What a time we’re going through right now! We hope you’re staying safe and healthy, mentally and physically. As for us, workouts, morning coffee brews, and movie/show binging have become such a pleasure and a normal part of our daily routine during this tough and uncertain time!
The last few weeks have been tough for us staying home. It’s emotionally draining being away from family and friends, and it’s hard knowing we can’t really travel at this time. Though it may be difficult, we know we’re all doing this for a reason. During this time at home we’ve adjusted and here are some of the things we’ve been doing:
