Master Bedroom Reveal



Today, I thought I’d give all of you a glimpse into one of our favorite and “finished” rooms of the house! (Although we know no room is ever actually finished…hehe ) I absolutely lOve our master bedroom. It is such a retreat after a long day and the calming color scheme really brings the outdoors in. One of the things that achieve that is our comforter. It not only serves as the focal point of the room, but the pops of green throughout the pattern really reflect the colors found in nature. I just love walking in and seeing the cheerful poppy print and getting to enjoy the gorgeous view right outside our window - all in the same room!!!

"Pallet-Style" Subway Art Tutorial




I was truly inspired by all the subway art that seems so popular right now and couldn’t wait to have such a bold graphic piece on display in our home. I would’ve bought one but after lOts of looking and not finding one with a phrase I liked Peter suggested I make it myself...hehe soo I did! With his help of course ;) I was set on making it “pallet style” with a little extra detail to give it interest, and created my own stencils. I keep mine up year round, but if you use this saying it’d be a very sweet sentiment to have on display for Valentine’s Day!!
