I have a thing for numbers in home decor. I am instantly drawn to them. Dressers with numbers on drawers, stools with painted numbers or baskets with numbers. There is something about this small detail that I think adds a lot of personality and a sort of vintage flair. Every time my Pottery Barn catalog comes I see images like this. Source: Pottery Barn I am loving this look. I already had some baskets from Target sitting on my inherited TV credenza so I thought I would give them a little ...

Spruced Up Living Room & New Arrangement
Call it spring fever, or extreme nesting or in this case---just being me, but I had the urge to change things up. It isn't always about one being better than the other, but just needing something new. Kind of like a hair cut. Sometimes you just need a change. I already shared the bookshelf we added, including how we got that fun pop of color in the back (check that out here). If you aren't familiar with my digs, check out our home tour to see the old layout/color scheme. Our living room is ...
Our Brand Spankin’ New Moen Faucet
This post brought to you by Moen, Incorporated. All opinions are 100% mine. Once upon a time I was 24.

By the end of the whole ordeal our bank account and ...
Dressing Up a Bookshelf Without Committing
I like to change things up...a lot. I just am not the kind of girl who decorates a room and then leaves everything there for years. I am constantly tweaking, adjusting and switching it up. I have been this way my entire life. I just cannot help it! Nesting took on a whole new phase a few weekends ago and I rearranged the living room. This included a spur of the moment mini road trip to IKEA. Which, by the way, is now the land mark in which Quinn judges all things. Quinn, "Is that bigger than ...
Oh, The Places You Will Go Baby Shower & Pinwheel Favor Boxes
My twin brother (also known as my womb-mate) and his wife are expecting their first child. They are due three weeks after me. They only live one street over and two blocks down too, so this should be a lot of fun. They have been working pretty hard to create an, Oh, The Places You Will Go Baby themed nursery. I have seen bits and pieces of it, but still need to house crash. Maybe they will even let me share their hard work with you. It only seemed fitting that their shower be of the same ...
