PILLOW TALK

April 18, 2016

Last week we posted this photo on our Instagram and we got a ton of inquires about it! I did my absolute best to cover all questions and link all shop-able items (or very similar) below for ya.

The most popular question was about the color of our wall. We painted it with two coats of BEHR Premium Plus Ultra in "Cracked Pepper". It took us foreverrrr to find the perfect dark, chalky grey and we love it so so much. If you choose to paint any wall dark grey or black, you'll definitely want to get flat/matte paint. Dark glossy colors show any and all texture or little flaws your walls may have. Matte paint flattens and smooths everything out in a really awesome way...

ART ROUNDUP - COOL & COLORFUL

March 29, 2016

This week's art roundup is bright, colorful and packed full of fun illustration pieces! I have noticed more vibrant art popping up all over the place and feeling the spring vibes lately so this definitely felt appropriate :) I love when people are able to incorporate really bright contemporary art into their spaces and hopefully, if you aren't normally the daring type when it comes to art in your home, this will inspire and embolden you to try it out!...

EASY KILIM BENCH DIY

March 16, 2016

If you follow us on Instagram you'll know that recently Mika and I made a kilim bench bench for our bedroom and we love it so much!! We needed something to fill the space along the wall next to our bed, and because our room is so neutral, we decided we wanted a pop of color to brighten things up. Enter the idea for a cheery colored kilim bench with hairpin legs to tie in a bit of that midcentury vibe. Once we had all the supplies it took us a couple hours (max) to put the whole thing together. If we could do it, you can easily do it too :)

MUDCLOTH PATTERN PAINTED POT DIY

March 12, 2016

I am a huge fan of the vintage mudcloth pattern that seems to be popping up everywhere lately! I haven’t been able to find a way to seamlessly incorporate it into our home…until now. We wanted to add a couple cool plants to our front porch and I found these awesome terracotta pots at Ikea for a couple bucks and decided they would look awesome when painted with the mudcloth pattern. It was so so easy that I decided to share the DIY here so that you can make them too!

WRAPPED ANTLER DIY

September 9, 2015

A few months ago, as I was hunting down reception centerpieces that truly felt like us and flowed with our overall wedding day vibe, I stumbled across some deer antlers for sale on Ebay. I loved them and ordered them immediately, although I still had no clue as to how I was going to work these bad boys into the decor...
