COLOR STORY: COPPER

June 15, 2016

There is a little section of my heart just fully dedicated to how much I love copper. Copper was one of our wedding colors last year and at the time I felt like it was so hard to find anything cool. Little did we know that if we had just waited less than a year we would have been able to find the coolest copper items everywhere! I love that it's finally getting the love it deserves.

So today's color story is all about those copper accents (small or large) that you can incorporate into your space that will easily take it to another level. Soooo metal :) ...

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...

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 :)
