With Thanksgiving this week, it’s the perfect time to take a look at your dining space. Revamping the entire room can be expensive, but luckily it’s not always necessary. Today we are working with Arhaus to show how adding a statement piece or two can elevate your space without breaking your budget.

In the dining space of our Vidriosa project, a new round mirror added another layer of dimension that made a difference in the space, especially in person. The statement mirror breaks up the pattern on the beautiful wallpaper with reflected natural light. A mirror is a perfect holiday hosting update. It’s a statement maker that can reflect a beautiful chandelier and holiday centerpiece for added glow and ambiance.

Guest Prep: Beautiful Holiday Home Updates w/ Walmart.com

Welcome! With the holidays just around the corner, I’ve been sprucing up my home. I love to entertain during the holidays. It gives me the chance to celebrate and enjoy the people I love. It’s this time of year that my dining area gets the most use. Holiday dinners with family and friends are some of my family’s fondest memories. With this in mind, I decided to give my dining area a little makeover.

I love to create a modern/bohemian mix when designing my home. My favorite new addition to my dining room are these woven chairs, available at Walmart.com. The chairs’ classic, mid-century lines paired with the laced strapping were the perfect fit for this space. Their light natural wood color is a great contrast to bold, black dining table.


To give the space a festive, cozy feel, I added some soft, faux fur rugs thrown over the chairs. It’s an easy way to accessorize the space, dressing it up a little. I also found these rugs affordably at Walmart.com.

Here is a little tip:

Walmart.com is a great place to shop while prepping your homes for the holidays. They have a huge selection of stylish, budget-friendly furniture and accessories to decorate your spaces. Whether you love, modern, coastal, farmhouse or bohemian styles, you can shop easily for any look at Walmart.com. I recommend shopping online here, where you can quickly and effortlessly find beautiful, affordable pieces according to your style. You will find great items your list and even more fun inspirations to update your homes. Plus, orders over $35 ship for FREE! This is a huge perk!!!

Below I’ve rounded up some of my recent favorite finds while shopping on Walmart.com. I hope you enjoy this great new resources for prepping your homes for the holidays. When your guests arrive they won’t believe you’ve transformed your spaces by shopping online at Walmart!! Have a great day.

Before + After: Cafe Hermosa Project

Today I am excited to share the before and after images of my Cafe Hermosa Project. Recently voted “SC’s Best New Restaurant.” This is a perfect little cafe with amazing food, and I was honored to be part of it. Cafe owners, Jamie and Joey Madison, have had a successful Italian restaurant named Fratello’s for years. Jamie had a wonderful idea to open another restaurant featuring a fresh, healthy menu, full of positive energy where friends could gather for lunch. I was so flattered when she came to me to execute her vision. Together, we created a crisp interior with a modern bohemian vibe that reflects Jamie’s individual style and the sunny Southern California beach town of San Clemente.

Estillo Project – Modern Coastal Dining Room

Today, I am excited to share more details of our Estillo Project. If you missed it, catch up on the master bedroom and kitchen, and then continue with today’s dining room reveal. The vision for this home was a fresh take on a coastal vibe and we got the look in the dining room with layered whites, organic texture, and ocean blues. Take a peek!

The walls and ceiling of this fresh white space are Benjamin Moore’s Swiss Coffee. As I’ve shared before, this is the perfect paint choice if you want your white space to feel warm. The creamier white paired with hand-distressed oak floors, Provenza Desert Haze, create an inviting foundation for the space.

The rug we selected for the space is a work of art by Eskayel. The design has the feel of ocean waves at the beach. This rug has a similar organic look, as does this  option.

Beautiful, clean-lined dining furniture adds texture, without detracting from the rug. We chose a rustic wood dining table with modern simplicity and paired it with woven marine rope dining chairs from Palecek (an affordable woven option here).


A pair of faceted brass and glass pendant lights adds light to the room. We love these pendants because they make a statement while maintaining an unobtrusive airy quality. There are several affordable sources to get this look, if you like it check out these options here, here, and here.

White table lamps draped in coastal wooden beads are a beautiful pairing with the modern pendants. The lamps sit on a modern rustic carved wood sideboard. A stunning ocean wave print (giclee from original oil painting) by Todd Kenyon of Pure Laguna Beach completes the coastal look and adds beautiful color to the white walls.

The dining room is clean and simple, but statement pieces add color, texture and beauty. Thank you for taking a look into this project with me! To get the look, see the sources below.
