There are some colors you  might not think to put to together, but when you do, it can be an amazing collaboration!

The subtle blue pairs great with the vibrant green above.

The lime green gives this dark blue a little brightness,

Going bright on both hues can make for an eye catching moment. 

Labeling your toy storage is a great way for you to keep everything organized, but also teaches your kids good organizing skills too! More toy storage ideas: http://www.bhg.com/decorating/storage/organization-basics/organized-home/?socsrc=bhgpin100713toystorage&page=11

Pairing these two colors made a fun boys playroom above.

One of the wonderful things about the "eclectic collector" style is the ability to say yes to any piece of artwork or any accessory that speaks to you. Even if it's a strange color or an interesting combination of textures and patterns, chances are, you'll find a spot for it in an eclectic home.

Having hints of each color really brought this room together.

Small Spaces done right

It's difficult to create a roomy feel when you are limited on square footage. Here are a few examples of different spaces that I think are done well for limited space. 


A bedroom doesn't have to be large to be glamorous. You also don't need a lot in a bedroom to make it a bedroom! A bed and a side table will do just fine since this is a room for sleeping. Keep is simple with a touch of your personality to make it homey.


Laundry rooms can be extravagant or simple but making the most of the space you have is what makes it stand out. This simple closet doesn't look like much but it has everything you need.


An office doesn't require a room, a little nook or corner will do just fine! I love when paint is used to separate a space like this. Keep it simple and clutter free so it doesn't matter where in the home it is!


Closets are so personal. Everyone has different priorities for them and different needs whether it's shelving, hanging space, or shoe storage! When the closet is small sometimes you can feel limited to how you can design it to fit your needs, but this picture proves that you still can!


Sometimes a dinning room room table or a kitchen table aren't a necessary! If you don't have a large family, a dinning room might be a waste of space. This kitchen nook is perfect for small spaces and the extra storage on the side is a great bonus.


Powder rooms tend to be small, but what do you do if you have a tiny powder room? This one is done so well! With a skinny sink to give youroom to walk and a bold pattern behind the toilet, this space looks well designed even though it's super small!

Welcoming in the warmth

Trying to make it through this last hump of wintery weather with some warm and inviting spaces! I hope you enjoy:




Living Room - The cool blues of this space are quickly warmed up by the bright reds. The corner window enlarges, the cozy cushions invite, and the unique accents lure you to explore their individuality. I am especially in love with the turquoise metal side table and the blue seat with star-shaped wooden back.

Hope you all are staying warm!

Some office love

It seems like more and more people are working from home. With a struggling economy it makes sense to cut corners. Not having to commute gives you more billable hours as well as less gas cost. There's also that freedom of being able to live wherever you want, which gives you an option to be in a more affordable area.


With all that savings it gives you a great option to really spend some quality time making your home office everything you wanted it to be.


Say goodbye to that stuffy cubicle and hello to a room you can create just to your liking.


It's like a whole new world of options open up for you and you get to make it an environment for you to excel at your work.


Even if it is only one little corner in a room, it's yours. 


I can see most people working from home in the future and for me it feels like a great way to balance life and work. Instead of being somewhere you don't want to be, you actually get to enjoy being in your own space.

I'm curious to know, how many of you work from home or are thinking of making the switch?

In the winter I seem to struggle to keep the house feeling fresh and warm. Adding a touch of wood in a room is a great way to bring the outdoors in and give it that feel of warmth. Here are some beautiful ways to get you inspired:

I love the look of exposed beams, no matter the color or style, it gives great character to a room! Even if the beams aren't original to the room, it can create a stunning space.

An Elegant Touch of Vintage

Adding a simple elegant touch to your decor, using vintage items, may not seem as easy as it sounds. Here are some great pictures to help you get inspired:

It can be as simple as adding an older piece to your current home decor, or mixing great finds together to create a room filled with a vintage feel.

Don't feel rushed to find the perfect pieces, sometimes it takes a lot of shopping around, thrift stores, and flea markets to find that perfect one.


Mixing modern with vintage may be more of what you are looking for.


The fun thing about a vintage touch, is it is completely up to you! Add a few pieces, or make it a whole room of vintage decor.


What's your favorite way to add vintage?
