Sharing our 1920’s farmhouse renovations, home decor, homesteading life, and my motherhood journey as a girl mom. I’m so glad you’re here!
All in Home Decor
I’m so excited to finally share another finished room in our 1920’s renovated farmhouse— the dining room! You have to walk through the dining room to go upstairs, and it’s also where we sit down for family meals since we don’t have a table in our kitchen. I wanted this room to feel super cozy with a lot of warmth, wood tones, and Boutique Rugs has come to the rescue with the perfect rug for this space!
Now that we are finally living in our farmhouse, I have been so excited to unpack and decorate each room in our home. Our home renovations took 8 long months, and being in our 1920’s farmhouse after such a long waiting period is so surreal!
Almost 2 years later since we’e moved into our Jones Co. home and our playroom is officially complete! When building our home, we didn’t want to designate an actual bedroom as a playroom. Instead, we came up with the idea to have the storage closet attached to the upstairs den finished instead of it being left unfinished for storage! We thought it would be the perfect space to make a little playroom for Joanie and future children (hello baby girl on the way!) and I love how it’s attached to our den.
It’s finally Fall, and I’m so excited for cooler weather and pumpkin patches! I had so much fun decorating each space in our Jones Co. home for Fall, and I hope this gives you some inspiration to decorate your home for the new season! If you have any questions about our home design while looking at these pictures, be sure to check out my blog post all about our Jones Co. home design choices here!
I’ve been so excited to do this blog post for y’all! I’ve had many people who are building a home with Jones Co. message me about which flooring, counters, cabinets, paint colors, etc. that we chose when building our home, and I couldn't remember the exact names. I thought it would be a great time for me to re-visit the design studio in Franklin and familiarize myself with all of the choices we made when designing our home.
When deciding to build a home, having the perfect floor plan was so important to us. I was pregnant with Joanie at the time, and we wanted to choose a layout that would work well with a growing family. Immediately upon touring the Jones Co. model home in the Harvest Point community of Spring Hill, I could see myself raising a family in that home. Here is a link to all of the different floor plans that The Jones Co. offers.
Who loves a good before and after as much as I do!? Since quarantine life started, I’ve definitely had the itch to organize every single space in our house. For those of you who are new readers, our home was a custom designed Jones Company home. If you are interested in building a new home in the middle Tennessee area, definitely check them out. Their design studio has every option under the sun to truly customize your dream home, and they made the building process so fun and stress-free.
I’m so excited to share one of my favorite subscription boxes with y’all- Decocrated. If you haven’t heard of Decocrated before, they’re a home decor subscription service that sends you a box of carefully curated home decor pieces every season. What I love most about this service is that the pieces can work with any style of home decor, where you consider your style traditional, farmhouse or modern. I’m always having the itch to redecorate and it’s so much fun to be able to use each piece in different rooms of my house and style each decor item in various ways.
I’m so excited to have finally done my first DIY since moving into our new construction home almost a year ago. I can’t believe how fast time is flying, and that we’ve almost been in our house for an entire year! We built our home with The Jones Company, a custom builder based out of Middle Tennessee. Check out their website to see all of their available cities and neighborhoods that they’re currently building in.
With Spring just around the corner, I thought I’d put together some ideas to decorate your home for Easter since we’re all stuck in our homes for the nest few weeks. Decorating has really been helping me take my mind off everything going on, and browsing for decor ideas has been fun for me to get a lot of inspiration to share with you.
This room has been in the making for so long, and now that Joanie is 10 1/2 months old, her room is finally finished! Better late than never, right? At least I finished it before her 1st birthday! We moved into our home when Joanie was 4 weeks old, and hadn’t bought her any nursery furniture or decor yet since we didn't want to have to move it. I’ve been slowly collecting furniture and decor over the past few months, and I’m so excited to finally share this space with y’all! It’s hands down my favorite room in our home.
When I first heard about the brand, Ruggable, I was so interested in this brand new game-changing rug. The rug comes in two different pieces— a nonslip rug pad and a lightweight rug cover. The rug cover is thin and very soft, and is able to peel right off (almost like a velcro) and can be thrown into the washing machine when it gets dirty!
I loved putting together a post of my favorite affordable farmhouse rugs, so I wanted to do the same thing for pillows! I’ve been pillow shopping recently since I still need a few more for our couches, and I love any pillow that is neutral and textured, giving it that farmhouse feel. I rounded up a few of my favorites today, some of which I own and love. Others are on my wishlist and ones I’ve been eyeing from some of my favorite stores— Target, Kirklands, TJMaxx, and Pottery Barn. Happy pillow shopping!
The last time I decorated my bar cart was for Halloween and now that all of the Christmas decor is down, I really wanted to decorate something festive again! With Valentine’s Day around the corner, I decided to decorate our bar cart to fit the occasion. All of the Valentines decorations I bought are from the Target dollar spot, so be sure to check out your local Target for some of these decor items, since they’re not available online. My bar cart is from World Market and would match any style you have in your home!
I’m so excited to finally do a reveal of Richard’s home office! Since he works from home sometimes, he really wanted his own space that wasn’t a bedroom or common area that he could get work done. When we first toured the model home when we decided to build, the office was one of the things that sold us on this floorpan!
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, which means we’re one step closer to Christmas! I have so much to be thankful for this year with the arrival of our sweet Joanie and moving into our dream home. I can’t wait to celebrate her first Thanksgiving and Christmas this holiday season with family and friends.
It finally feels like fall outside and I was so excited to decorate our porch for the fall season! I’ve been loving the layered doormat look that’s been trending, so I couldn't wait to try it out. My “Hey There Pumpkin” doormat is from Etsy and shipping was super fast! The black and white checkered doormat is from Amazon and prime can have it to your house in just 2 days.
Last week, I shared how we started to get in the Halloween spirit by decorating my Halloween Bar Cart. I decided to also decorate our entryway with a Halloween theme, and love how just adding a few things have totally transformed this space as well!
With Halloween around the corner, I recently got inspired to decorate our bar cart for Halloween! Looking at the dollar spot selection at Target, I saw these really cute napkins, dish towel, and copper mugs, and knew it would match perfectly with our copper decor that’s already on our bar cart.
