5 Designer Styling Secrets

May 16, 2018

Designers and Stylists have a lot of experience transforming spaces and making them Instagram image worthy. We know that without the right finishing touches, even good bones and beautiful furniture can look blah. But even if you don’t have the budget for a professional, there are easy tricks you can do to make your home look more like the images that inspire you. Today I am sharing five styling secrets to help you get that layered designer look in your own home.

Layer Items you Love

Becki Owens and Nicole Davis Cotton Point Estates Project

A room feels complete when shelves and tables are styled with objects that you love. Mixing old family photos, favorite books, travel souvenirs with new purchases creates a unique layering of beautiful objects that makes a room feel vibrant. If you don’t like the collection that you have, I always find beautiful styling pieces at local boutiques, vintage stores, or on sale at Pottery Barn, West Elm, One Kings Lane, or Etsy.

9 Cool New Finds on Etsy

May 15, 2018

Happy Tuesday! Today I’m excited to share with you some really cool new items I’ve found on Etsy. One of my favorites is a resource for bead strands. I love to style with these in my designs. The Bead Chest is a store on Etsy that has an amazing collection of glass, wood and bone strung beads. They come in various colors and sizes. I use these beads to decorate nightstands, coffee tables, around lamps and anywhere that I want to add an interesting layer of texture and personality. I also found a pretty eucalyptus wreath, a wood stool and Moroccan style pom-pom blanket for incredible prices. Check out my latest Etsy finds below. Have a great day!

Las Palmas Project Powder Bath

May 14, 2018

Although powder bath’s are tiny spaces, they can have huge impact. You might think that since the space is small, you should keep it clean and simple with bright white paint. Although I am usually always down with white paint, in a small half bath with no natural light white can feel stark and boring. Instead, go bold to create a unique space that feels warm and inviting for visiting guests. In the powder bath of my Las Palmas Project, we created a coastal bohemian vibe with incredible wallpaper, a mix of patterns, and rich brass accents. Take a look!

This Week’s Favorite Finds

This beautiful piece of modern, abstract art would create a pretty focal point in a room.
If you need a lamp to style on a console or for your bedside tables, this one has great lines and i love the two tone with brass detail design.
These stone earrings make such a pretty statement. Wear them dressed up or down to add a something special to your look.
This dress has a such great effortless style. I love this new floral print, but it also come in many pretty solid colors.
I’m into fun earrings right now and these are another pair i saw that are a great price for an on trend pair. The light tortoise shell pattern are a pretty neutral to wear with everything.
These bistro style chairs are a modern twist on a classic style. I love the gray and white weave. They would be such a pretty addition to any space.
Soft pink works great as a neutral and this rug’s palette with its cool vintage design make a great option for updating a space.
Vertical stripes are so flattering, that paired with the one-shoulder style and pale striped print makes this a great swimsuit for summer.
I like the woven detail of these slides. They come in a great neutral color too.
Have you seen this new liquid highlighter. I goes on so smooth and is perfect for blending and adding a subtle glow to your skin. I love the blush in this line also but it is already sold out!
A cool cross-body bag for a great price. I love that it was inspired by a vintage picnic basket. Great style.
