LOVING LATELY FOR LYDIA’S ROOM

July 1, 2020

The upside to quarantine has been all this time we’ve gotten to spend together as a family; in the seventeen years my husband and I have been together, we have never, in all that time, spent so many days consecutively under one roof, it was truly an experience! One of the down sides, however, was,…

shower curtain trick

January 28, 2019

I finally got around to hanging some art in the upstairs guest room bathroom over the weekend (for those asking, it’s a nautical chart that my hubby used to navigate the Intracoastal years ago that I framed!)  I’ve always loved this bathroom but it never ceases to amaze me how even a single piece of…

all your questions about our pool (and some new sod!)

August 31, 2018

If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you’re probably tired of seeing photos of our pool in my feed and my stories, but since I’m in complete denial that summer is officially/technically coming to a close here very soon (and since it’s going to be a while before it starts to feel like Fall here in…

lydia’s window treatment details

February 13, 2018

Lydia’s room is, by far, the happiest in our whole house and, even though I feel a little bit guilyy that I focus so much on her room when Luca still doesn’t technically have fully complete quarters of his own, I love that every time I post a shot of her sweet little space or…

my house at christmas

December 22, 2017

As I write this, there are only four more sleeps until Christmas, so I thought I’d take a break from all the wrapping and toy assembling (there is SO much to put together!) to post a few snaps from around our house this year at Christmas!  I like to keep my Christmas decorations like the…

a vintage JB Van Sciver bamboo bed for Lydia

December 7, 2017

I’m a firm believer that good things come to those who wait – or, in my case, when you aren’t even looking in the first place!  It seems like whenever I’m on the hunt for something in particular, I always come up empty handed, but my best finds to date have always been popped up when…

new lantern lighting for my kitchen

  This post is a LONG time coming – and not just because it’s been forever since I’ve blogged!  It’s taken me seven years to make up my mind on a chandelier for my breakfast nook and then find one I won’t get tired of as soon as it’s installed, but I’m excited to say I’ve…
