Quick Vase Makeover

I found the hideous vase above at Michael's. I really didn't like it but the shape was just what I was looking for. A quick coat of white spray paint and ta-da!

Below the finished product. I think the grand total was around 7 dollars for the whole process.

Fall Accessories Update

I decided to switch out all of the blue pillows to create a fall feeling in my living room. I'm loving all of the new textures! If you're in the Baltimore area go check out Arhaus down in Harbor East. If not, check out their other store locations to see if there is one near you.

Love the industrial feel of the middle pillow. The other two almost look like an animal print but they're not!

So obsessed with this book, I can't wait for it to arrive! God I love being the boss of me. Isn't it nice rewarding yourself for small feats?

Have an awesome weekend!

Lonny Tactile Experience?!

via absolutely beautiful things

Will you be ordering your very own copy of the Lonny Magazine printed version? The price ranges from $30-$40 per issue. This may seem daunting at first, but keep in mind that these issues are generally around 200 pages! And we all know they are chalk-full of killer design inspiration.

I'm hoping to get my hands on a few during the holiday season...just sayin'.

Camping Anyone?

I'm not much of a "camper" but if this were the setting, I could definitely rough it for a day or two! It's going to be a CRAZY week for me. Would love to escape to this elegant little hideaway!

Makeup Organization

My makeup has been totally unorganized lately and I couldn't take another minute of it.

I was at Michaels and they had out holiday decor. I decided that it would be perfect for organizing my products. The silver tray was only $6.99 and the little gold striped cups are candle votives. The large one was $3.99 and holds all of my brushes and mascara. The little one is perfect for my lip glosses and was only $1.99.

I love how this little inexpensive project is so rewarding. I feel so much better living in an organized space.
