Welcome to My Home


Today I wanted to welcome you all into my home. As a blogger, I want my reader to really feel like they get to know who I am and what I like. Part of the reason I started blogging was to share a piece of myself with the world--not only through words, but with pictures. I am by no means an excellent decorator--but I love a cozy feeling. When people come by I want my house to smell good, feel warm, have some glitz, and make people want to stay and have a good time with great conversation.








My house is eclectic. It is glitzy and girly--yet not so over the top that my hubby doesn't feel at home (except that one time I painted the bathroom pink--but we will save that story for another day ha). I have things I thrifted next to pieces I have purchased at my favorite store--Pier 1. I love beautiful wood and shimmering tiles--brown and amber colors fill most of the space. All the ways I decorate have a purpose--to make people feel at home.

Relationships are the core of my being-I treasure my family and friends. A home is a home because it is filled with the people I love. Sorry-corny,but true! I want my home to be a place of gathering and laughter. I don't cook--but love when people bring some munchies and I always provide the wine--aka the good stuff :)

What is your style of decorating and why?

Make sure you also follow me on PinterestBloglovin', or GFC (located on right sidebar)! :)

I hope you all enjoyed seeing a little part of my world and thank you all for becoming part of it day by day :)

  1. I love getting to see your home! Such cute decorations! My house kind of looks like it belongs next to a beach since I decorated with a lot of...beachy colors. I think the closest beach is about 8 hours away. hah

  2. I think my style is definitely vintage/eclectic. I posted some photos of my old apartment from before I moved in with my boyfriend (http://buttonsandbirdcages.com/2013/07/19/out-with-the-old/) It was really girly and eclectic but I've definitely toned it down (A little) since we moved in together. Love your photos!

  4. What a beautiful home pretty lady. I love the back splash and all your cute add ons to your home. I love homes that I feel like I can walk into and feel more than welcome. I don' think i've figured out my "style" just yet but Michael and I enjoy rustic furniture and he loves dark wood.

  8. Looks SUPER cozy! I would describe my house the same way -- girly and glitzy but not so much so that my boyfriend can't stand it (except for my Princess Room). I have a pink bathroom, too! :D I've been scoping out chandeliers for my boyfriend to hang in there.. he's reeeeally excited about it..
