    June 11, 2019 / 4 Comments

    I’ve put together a room-by-room paint guide that includes info on all of our walls, trims and even painted furniture. Click a room to jump to it! Entry Walls: Custom (See formulas at end of post) Trim: Custom (See formulas at end of post) Our entry walls and trim are both custom formula by Sherwin Williams.

    5 Tips For Styling Your Entryway

    May 29, 2019 / No Comments

    Since there are a million and one ways to style an entryway, I thought I’d work backwards. Here are my answers to five entryway styling challenges: 1 | Not sure where to start? A standard entry formula looks a little something like this: rug + table or bench + mirror or art + lighting Build in that order. Then layer in your functional items: baskets, key dishes, wall hooks, etc. Finally, add in your decorative touches: photos, candles, books and other decorative objects. 2 | Feeling cluttered? The first purpose of a formal entryway is mainly aesthetic. It’s meant to give you space to enter your home and it sets…

    We may never fully understand why throw pillows are so darn yummy to look at. They are the ultimate eye-candy of decor. They are like shoes.

    Natural Neutral Christmas Decor

    November 25, 2018 / No Comments

    I use a lot of natural elements in my everyday styling, so it only makes sense that I’d do the same for our Christmas decor! I want it to create a sense of coziness while feeling like a natural extension of what we already have.  Natural and neutral decor is all about texture. I love using woods, greens, muted metals and soft chunky knits and I stick with a simple, earthy color palette.  Here are some of my favorite pieces to get you started. Click to shop. I’m still waiting for a few of these pieces myself. Stay tuned for a post on our finished decor!

Meet Dani

Hi, I'm Dani and this is my guide to beautiful living. I believe that our homes impact our lives deeply, so I’ve created this corner of the internet to inspire spaces that are both beautiful and meaningful. In everything I design, I leave room for imperfections and for pieces that tell the story of our lives. Nothing is too precious. Everything is meant to be lived in. And the most important thing in our home? The people. Always.
