Let me start by saying, I love this bathroom—I love the way the light pours in and bounces off the glass in the shower for a few hours in the early afternoon, I love its old character with the square window that opens from the top and hangs by a chain and the original medicine cabinet.

I sort of hate when people make personal declarations like this, but in my circles, I am rather well known for *forcing* people to sleepover.

I’ve always loved buying new calendars. There’s just something about it—I love that it’s like rotating artwork, and that it’s also a little surprise to celebrate the start of each month. So, I’ve usually held on to my favorites, assuming I’d eventually put them to good use again at the very low price of: nothing.

We closed on our new house in November, and we've been working our butts off ever since that memorable day when we received the keys, popped a bottle of champagne, and took a sledge hammer to the existing kitchen cabinets :)

I'm already chuckling about this title because if you were to ask Jon, no one in their right mind would ever be in the market for throw pillows. He's like a real-life Jerry Seinfeld skit: "What's the deal with throw pillows? Throw pillows..."

You guys, a bedroom has never been my biggest priority in settling into an apartment. It never feels as important as the living areas, especially since it's usually covered in clothes and really just a place for sleep. But I'd been craving a change to this mindset for a while. And so for the first time in a long time (probably since living in our childhood homes), our bedroom feels truly purposeful and thought-out. It's a curated mix of bright, eclectic, lived-in, and cozy. I'm loving how this long work in progress has turned out, and the fact that very few things were actually new purchases...

This installment of In the Market For is a slight diversion from the norm in that I broke the $50 price limit, since this one features home furnishings. I tried to pick great rugs, night stands, chairs, duvets, tables, etc. at good prices (but not necessarily under $50)...

It's been a long time since I've been able to call even the smallest nook my "office" space. And to be honest, I still do most of my blogging from my couch or my bed. But I've been spending some time slowly cultivating a unique little workspace of my own—thanks to this cutest desk that Jon gave me for Christmas to be the centerpiece of it all.
I think it's bright, comfortable, tidy, and eclectic—the best combination for me.

Thanksgiving is about family, gratitude, and abundance, and the vehicle for that message is the meal. That is what inspired me to make this fresh, rustic, and simple tablescape. I wanted it to be subtle and beautiful, without an enormous flower centerpiece or other distractions. I think a Thanksgiving table should feel earthy, comforting, and really be about the people sitting at the table.
