Trend Tuesday {Sponsored by Tuesday Morning}

Good Morning!

Today I am guest posting over on the Tuesday Morning blog and talking about one of the year's biggest trends...geometric patterns.  Whether you love bold and bright or prefer subtle and soft, geometric patterns are sure to add a fun touch to your space!

Being a neutral loving girl, I like to stick to the more subtle touches.  This wool, diamond patterned rug from Tuesday Morning was the perfect way to change up the room while adding texture and interest!  I simply layered it over our existing rug for a brand new look!



If you love more of the bold and bright look, then you will love all of the geometric patterned goodies I found while shopping at Tuesday Morning!  Here is a tiny sneak peek...

Finishing Touches in the Master Bedroom

When we were wrapping up our bedroom makeover a few months ago, there was one store that I turned to when it was time to put the finishing touches on the space!  If you follow me on social media, then you know one of my "go to" stores for accessories is HomeGoods!

Here are some items from HomeGoods that added the finishing touches to the room!

1.  Throw Pillows:  I love these felt throw pillows I found at HomeGoods.  They are simple yet interesting and the texture adds a lot to the space! The colors were perfect and the fringe and poms added a whimsical touch without being over the top!

 
2. Unexpected Elements: The textured wreath you see above the bed is also a HomeGoods purchase.  I love the unexpected element it adds to the space and it brings a lot of dimension to the room.  When working with such a limited color scheme, it is good to use interesting décor to keep the space from being bland.  I simply added it over an old, salvaged screen for a unique focal point above the bed!
 
 
3.  Tassel Throw Blanket:  I love using throw blankets pretty much all over the house!  They add such a warm and inviting element to the space!  I love the large tassels on this throw I found at HomeGoods and it was perfect in our bedroom!
 
 
4. Table Accessories: I kept things very simple and used a few vintage items to add character to the space.  A vintage, metal parts bin was used to add height to the nightstand.  A simple glass jar, metallic antlers and a few candles softened the space and created a serene feel in the space.  We turned salvaged staircase balusters, from an old house, into one of a kind lamps.  I love mixing vintage pieces with new pieces to keep things interesting!
 
 
6. Candles: Creating a relaxing ambiance was as simple as adding a few candles to each side of the bed.  Shown above, I just added small votive candles as well as a jar of tapers for visual interest.  On the other side, a large terrarium holds 5 large candles that create the perfect glow when lit! 
 
 
 
 
5.  Faux Plants: Since our dresser is so ornate, I knew I wanted to keep things simple!  These faux potted plants were the perfect way to add a natural element to the room without taking away from the beautiful details of the dresser. 
 
 
6. Simple touches in our reading nook:  A fur throw rug, pom pillow and cozy throw blanket make our reading nook a great place to snuggle up with a good book! 
 
 
 
Thank you, HomeGoods, for always being a great source for affordable home décor!

Monday Pinspiration {Vintage Drawers and Product Features}

It is no secret that I am a sucker for vintage drawers!  My antique card catalog is one of my most favorite pieces in our home.  I love the interest it brings to our home and the vintage vibe it adds!  I feel like these pieces all have a back story which makes them interesting!


Another fun piece in our home is this small, industrial parts cabinet.  I added it to our master bedroom to add a funky, unexpected touch!  Styled with a lot of candles and a few organic touches, it was the perfect fit!



For today's post, I have rounded up some of my favorite images from Pinterest  that are full of inspiration and eye candy! I have also found some unique pieces that would give you the same look for sale online and have linked them at the end of the post!  Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy!

An old general store counter full of glass front drawers...as a kitchen island?  Yes, please!
 
Love the color they painted these old drawers...
 
This would be fabulous in an entry...or just about anywhere!
 
Love the industrial feel of this one!
 
 
 
Simply and bright...
 
Such a fun idea...
 
Love the pop of blue...
 
I adore this oversized wall cabinet!

Swoon...
 
And last but not least...this is such an amazing piece...

Do you love these amazing pieces as much as I do?  For those wondering, I have found all my pieces at local antique malls.  They go fast, so if you see one and think you want it, grab it while you can!  Also, check Craigslist, you never know what goodies you might come across!
 
GET THE LOOK.... 
Here are some great pieces available online that would give you a similar look!  Product links can be found under each image...
