Finally using our kitchen... and it feels so good 🥹
We don’t take this for granted for a second! Having a fully working kitchen again truly feels like such a gift. It’s always been the heart of our home, and after so many months without it, being back in this space feels extra special.
If you’ve been around here for a while, you know Derrick and I are major foodies.
And over the years, he’s become such an incredible cook... his recipes just keep getting better and better (lucky me ☺️).
There’s something about cooking at home, slowing down, and gathering around a meal that just feels like us again.
Would you guys want to see more of what we’re cooking, like we used to share?
5 stars. I wanted to make our guests feel comfortable and welcome and a hotel inspired bed seemed like the perfect idea.
All of this bedding is from @onequince , comment ‘BED’ and we’ll send you everything that’s linked on our LTK.
This look isn’t for the “anti-pillows” person - in fact it’s all about the layering for that plush, all-white and cozy hotel inspired look.
Here’s how to get this look in your home:
- Start with smooth, wrinkle-free sheets (a quick steam makes all the difference) I love the classic embroidered trim on these I used.
- Tuck your sheets tightly (especially the corners) for that tailored finish
- Layer in a plush duvet or comforter for that full, cloud-like feel (I like to stuff a duvet cover with an insert thats one size larger)
- And don’t skip the pillow layer technique (this is key!): I stacked four total for sleeping, two euro shams for structure, two decorative shams, and an oversized accent lumbar pillow (ours measures 18 x 42 in @LeeJofa fabric) to finish it off
Save for the next time you want a bed refresh!
Here’s how to bring everything you love together. Without the chaos!
Comment ‘LOVE’ and I’ll send you exactly how we define your base, choose your lead style, and mix in the rest so it actually works.
Most people think they have to choose one style... but that’s usually not the problem. The issue is trying to make everything feel equally important.
If you want your home to feel collected (not confusing), you need a clear lead... and then layer in the rest.
The difference between a home that looks good... and one that feels good?
It’s what your hands touch every day.
Plumbing fixtures.
Cabinet hardware.
Upholstery.
These aren’t always the most exciting decisions, but they’re the ones you interact with constantly. And trust me, you notice the difference. If you’re going to invest anywhere, start here.
Save this + pass it along to someone designing a space right now!
Did a roundup of recent purchases that I hands down love and would purchase again. Comment ‘SHOP’ for links!
If you’ve ever wondered where designers actually find those special pieces... it’s usually not the big box stores.
We’re always sourcing from smaller, lesser-known shops that carry pieces that feel a little more personal... and honestly, just more interesting.
So we rounded up a few of our favorites
Perfect for when you want your home to feel like you... not like everyone else’s.
Want to see some of the pieces we’re loving from these shops?
We shared a full roundup on the blog that went live yesterday (such a good way to get a feel for what they offer). LINK IN BIO!
Save this for later and send it to someone who’s been looking for something different!
