My Top Decorating Secret For Creating A Stunning Home The Easy Way Is…

My Top Decorating Secret For Creating A Stunning Home The Easy Way Is…

Hi! Thanks for stopping by the blog today. My design style has changed a little bit over the years but one thing that hasn’t changed is my love for rustic style. I love the country western, farmhouse, rustic feel in my home. Tyson and I bought a ranch farm in a small town in Wyoming that we are moving to this Spring. It came with an older home on the property, but our plan is to build our dream home. I can not wait to to design it and decorate it. It will be a fun adventure for our family. We love the idea of small town living. The interior design in Wyoming homes in my absolute favorite. It’s a mixture of rustic and cabin look. Tons of wood and big beams everywhere is something I adore so much! Keep reading to learn my BIGGEST decorating secret…

Also be on the look out for our updates on the farm and all the new adventures to come. I will be posting our journey step by step on the blog. Sign up below to join the blog family because I will be giving my email list the DIY updates first!

I want to share something with you that I’ve got tons of questions on through out the years. I have people ask me all the time where I get my decor from. Something that I became so passionate about was making signs and home decor printables. I started my business and designing signs in 2013 and it’s become something I am so passionate about. I love creating beautiful things to display in my own home and homes of my blog family and customers.

My goal was always to make affordable signs that anyone can buy and decorate their house exactly how they want to! Decorating should be all about designing a home you love spending time in. A place you soak in all the gorgeous decorations around you. A style that fits your personality and anyone that walks into that room knows because it looks like you!

That is always what I aim for when decorating a room. And something that you should keep in mind as well when designing.

So my top secret for creating a stunning home the easy way while you to stick to a budget… is buying home decor that is affordable and stylish. I am constantly looking for decor that is on sale or DIYing it myself. Most of the decor in my home I have made myself. I am all about DIY tutorials and that’s why I love showing you on the blog all my favorite projects.

I want to show you MY SHOP that I have designed CHEAP and CUTE prints that you can hang in your home. Instead of spending an arm and a leg on farmhouse signs I created a gorgeous line of home decor signs that barely cost anything. You can click the button below to see them!

I will share a few of my favorites below.

7 Secrets To Practice Self Care Ideas Through Decorating.

Self Care Design Tips you’ve never even thought of. But will instantly boost your mood!

Did you ever think about decorating as a form of self care? If you haven’t it’s kind of crazy to wrap your head around. Usually self care means bubble baths, reading your favorite book, binging a positive podcast, face masks, or getting a pedicure… At least that’s what you would think self care means. To be honest I think that self care can be anything that brings you a calming state of mind or instantly makes you happy. Which I believe we should be doing some kind of self care each and every day!

So I want to share 7 secrets to practice self care through decorating! These are tips I do on a regular basis and they boost my mood instantly.

I know they will make you happy as well!

Tell me in the comments below which of these secrets you do daily or at least in your regular schedule…

Or if you aren’t practicing any of the list below tell me which one you will start right away!

  • Creating a cozy bedroom that has a retreat feel. You would be surprised at how much happier you will be if you keep a clean room that has a cozy warm feel to it. A way I am able to do this daily is by making my bed and using throw pillows and throw blankets. Layers on your bed create a warm getaway design style. Of course you’ll sleep better with a bedroom you enjoy spending time in.

 

  • Decorate a bathroom with clean whites, and neutrals along with plants and pops of color to bring a happy mood. A bathroom is a space we get ready in and take care of our body so it makes sense to have a clean place for that. I love filling up clear canisters with colorful bath bombs and bath salts. I have even filled a glass jar with a bubble bath liquid and kept it on my bathroom shelf for decor.

 

  • Design a quiet space in your home you can relax and take a breather from the world. For me that space is a large wing back chair I have in my living room. It’s a space that I am able to unplug, relax, and just do nothing!

 

  • Organize!!! There is nothing that helps my mood more when I am cleaning the house than organizing a space I have been putting off for a while. You will be able to tackle a messy spot in your home and immediately feel better when you have dejunked or got rid of a few things you have been holding onto forever!

 

  • Tidy up each room every day! It only takes a few minutes of your time to pick up your house. If you tidy up on a regular basis it will make those deep clean Saturdays so much easier!

 

  • I have a meditation spot in my home that I have designed with a soft large sitting pillow, candles, and colorful wall art decor that will put me in a calm positive mood.

 

  • Decorate your home how you want to! Buy decorations that you love looking at, use a color scheme that are your favorite colors, forget about what’s the latest trend and follow what makes you happy just by looking at it.

I promise if you practice these self care decorating tips you will be a happier you! I know that I am!

Tell me in the comments which one of these tips is your favorite one or something you are already doing.

I want to know!

The BEST Farmhouse Fall Decor + 9 Tips How to Design a Neutral Home With Fall Accents.

farmhouse fall decor

Fall Interior Design – How to Decorate with a Rustic Design for Fall Time.

I love this time of year. The Fall time brings some of my favorite things. I love the weather, Fall activities, Fall home decor, and Halloween of course. This post I want to share the best Farmhouse Fall decor with you. And 9 tips to show you exactly how to design a neutral home with fall accents.

I will give you the very best decorations to design a beautiful home. Keep in mind I’m going to include links from tons of different companies. So you can click on them and shop around a little bit to get the very best price. That’s always my goal is giving you the best price when including my favorite decorations. 

A lot of times when decorating for Fall we only think to include orange, brown, and red. But the truth is neutral decor is so popular right now that it’s perfect to throw in some of these colors as accents but focus on a more neutral palette. 

Get ready I am going to share 9 tips to design your home with fall accents:

  • Tip #1 – Pick a few colors you love this time of year that you can choose to build your decor around. A color scheme is super important.

 

  • Tip #2 –  Your goal is creating a space that is cozy! In order to do that you can use throw pillows, throw blankets, pattern mixing, layers (mantel decorations, multiple throw pillows) I’ll include examples in my photos below.
 
  • Tip #3 – Use decorations that are unique. You can see orange pumpkins all day long but you won’t always see white, cream, neutral pumpkins. Some of my favorite fall pumpkins are THESE!

 

  • Tip #4 – Use blankets like crazy! During Fall I use one hanging over my couch, one hanging over my recliner, I also have a blanket bin that sits on my fireplace. Throw blankets are ALL over my house. It definitely brings that cozy vibe! You can see my favorite throw blankets HERE.

 

  • Tip #4 – I mentioned above blankets are the stamp of cozy decor. But you can’t forget to use throw pillows as well. You can use them in almost every room in your home. I have an entryway bench they are displayed, also my couch, my accent chairs, my master bed, mudroom bench. Everywhere! You can see my favorite Fall pillows HERE.

 

  • Tip #5 – Plaid is a go to pattern during Fall. A lot of people think of plaid during Christmas time. But you can use it for Fall decorations as well. I will include some of my favorites below. 

 

 

 

 
  • Tip #8 – This is a new design trend that is popular for Fall decorations is coral and navy decor used as accent pieces. Which I absolutely love. I see coral decorations used as Spring decor but it’s being kept out for Fall time. And navy is such a gorgeous color it’s fun to see it used a ton this year!

 

  • Tip #9 – Using Natural elements in your decorations is something you have to do. You will see all different kinds of wood decor for Fall. It brings an earthy touch and adds a lot of character.

 

So tell me which of these tips is your favorite one!
