Designing and creating on a simple budget.

Best of 2017

January 3, 2018 inspiration, our home, Uncategorized

Hello there and a very Happy New Year to you sweet friends! I am kicking 2018 off with another fun “Best of 2017” post with Cami from Tidbits! I always enjoy this post because it is special to look back throughout the year and see what you all enjoyed the most. It gets me excited for the future and I have another post coming up where I will be sharing some aspirations for this new year.

 

So without further ado, here is the countdown from one (most popular post) to ten…

Our Patio

This patio creation was a dream for our family and has really broadened the use and space of our home throughout the year.

Our Camper

I may not be a camper at heart, but this tiny camper update has made it our little vacation on home on wheels ;)…

Spring Home Tour

I know that Christmas is just behind us, but I am itching for spring! This tour has my wheels rolling for how I will freshen our spaces up.

Holiday Housewalk 2017

I was so completely honored to be a part of this tour and it was magical to share our home with you during the season.

Home For Christmas – Tips for Seasonal Decorating

Yet another fun Christmas tour sharing some of our favorite spaces in our home, festive and dressed up for the holidays.

Cozy and Inviting Family Room with Touches of Fall

It seems that home tours always are a hit, but more importantly I hope that they encourage you to find joy in whatever spaces you call home.

Fall Into Home with a Neutral and Warm Home Tour

More cozy fall goodness with simple touches here and there…

Summer Home Tour

Summer is such a sweet season throughout the year, with its long days and carefree schedules. Here I opened our home with juicy watermelon and lots of greenery.

Small Spaces Series – Kitchen

The small spaces series was such a treat to do and it makes me happy to see that this post was helpful to some of you out there. No matter the size, we can make home and do it in a way that is both stylish and comfortable!

Small Spaces Series – Kids Rooms Part 1

And lastly, another small spaces post talking about kids rooms and all the toys that have to fit into these tricky tiny spaces.

Again, thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart for joining me here this last year. I am humbled by your visits, your conversations and encouragement. I can’t wait for this upcoming year and I hope you will continue to stay with me as I share what that looks like around here! Wishing you a beautiful year ahead all!

    You are so talented! I know think camping looks fun because of how cute you made your camper look. And I’ve always loved those hanging baskets used as pots on your patio. So pretty!

Our Patio

We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (sh We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (shared it in stories today) and I can’t tell you enough how nice it is to hear that pretty little sound 🎵 ... I love wind chimes, chirping birds and dripping fountains... So you can imagine how fun it has been to be inside with the windows open and hearing all if those noises at once 💕. This could be a project that would be easily done with inexpensive pieces and makes a big impact for your outdoor space. Speaking of outdoor spaces, I shared ours all ready for summer up on the blog along with my friends. Come check it out if you need some easy ideas!
One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 Bu One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 But in stories I am sharing some tips and tricks for storage in a small bathroom like ours! I am talking about how we use drawers, but try to keep things pretty/functional at the same time... Come check it out and see how we think outside the box when it comes to this space! One of my new favorite tips comes from these 100% Cotton Turkish towels we were gifted from @theloomia! Not only are they pretty, they are large, but save space at the same time... You’ll have to go see what I mean in my stories, see you there! And @theloomia is offering 15% off when you use the code - Zevyjoy15 💕
I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and adding some fun wall treatments/trim... I only wish real size home DIY’s were as simple as popsicle sticks and wood glue 😂! Come see what I mean on stories... But I did grab some fresh flowers for the yard and shared how I simply decorate for this favorite season of mine, summer ☀️ . It’s all up on the blog and I am joining my friends too so come say hello 💕
I listened to your votes in stories and this old t I listened to your votes in stories and this old thrifted mirror got a few coats of “Play it Cool” (the color I had on hand from our kitchen cabinets 😉). And this hallway is finally done 🎉! Here is a little before and after... The board and batten design is from @anitayokota after I saw how she used it in her pretty bedroom I knew this would put a fun modern spin in the hallway. Some fresh paint, an affordable vintage rug and updated lighting completed this long dark space. Covering popcorn ceilings will come next, but I hope this shows how a little trim and paint go a long way when working on spaces! 🌿
This past week was a time to listen and prayerfully learn. My eyes were opened and my heart convicted to speak up and to do better... While I begin to share my content here, I will strive to move forward for change and find ways to support black lives here and at home.
Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawils Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawilson.msrd for more about this movement. My feed will be muted here as I listen and learn. I will be in stories sharing resources that support black lives. #amplifymelanatedvoices
Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out dressed sorta matching this morning 😂 This girl knows what she likes and asked to have her pink room transformed with blue... And you know when you give a mouse a cookie... 🍪 (Clearly I am the mouse 🐭 in this story 🤣) We finished up the new bead-board wall (I have trim touch up to do still) and then we are finishing spraying her little desk this afternoon. A couple vintage pieces are on the way, but otherwise I have been shopping the house for this little makeover. It’s all still in progress, but getting closer! And you all... This room is small!! So I am going to share how we tackle storage in this space so stay tuned in stories... 💕
Ever since I was little I can remember my dad tell Ever since I was little I can remember my dad telling me (who is a contractor/designer) the importance of using 3’s 💕. Now as I have made our own home, I almost always use the rule of 3’s whenever I am decorating. That goes for coffee tables, nightstands and more... I’m talking all about it and showing you some examples in stories today! And even more fun is that @boutiquerugs is offering 60% off with the code - ZEVYJOY60 ! This is the new rug we added from their collection to our bedroom here! So enjoy and have fun looking around at all their pretty selections... #boutiquerugspartner
You all know how I feel about pillows by now, don’t you?! 😂 Well in case you don’t... I think they are the best! They pull a space together affordably and make things cozy of course! You can trade them out or just keep adding to them (which is what I like to do 😉). And let’s face it, you can never have too many... Am I right? They are your artistic canvas in home decor and in my opinion there aren’t many rules to follow in the fun of mixing and matching them either! 🌿
Best of all, I’ve teamed up with 7 talented accounts to share how we used pillows to style our spaces. Head on over and check out what they’ve done... @thegingerhome
