Christmas Decor

We've been having such a great time in Orlando for the Thanksgiving holiday but I cannot wait to get home and start decorating for Christmas. I think our first stop off the tarmac will be the Christmas tree farm. Decorating our new home for Christmas is what my dreams are made of.

Master Bedroom Inspiration & Plans

So all I have is this one image, this one glorious picture! I had been wrecking my brain over what I wanted our master bedroom to look and feel like, searching Pinterest for what felt like hours on end. Most of the rooms I found were a little too cold or too warm. I wanted it to feel warm and cozy but also light and airy. A concept that seemed hard to capture. I looked all over for something that would look something like this wood ceiling. I found it but quickly realized that it wouldn't work on our odd shaped ceiling. I am still deciding whether or not to accent a wall with it. I absolutely love the pop of color in the bedroom bench.

Guest Bedroom Inspiration & Progress

So I'm pretty much obsessed with this bedroom from Ave Styles. When I first came across it on my Pinterest I knew immediately that I had to model one of our rooms after it.

Halloween 2016

Decorations this year came in the form of a few pumpkins on the inside and some spider web outside. I wanted to do so much more but time just didn't permit. Also because I thought I had a lot more stuff in storage. Next year I'll do better! 

Girl's Bedroom Inspiration

My friends may find this VERY odd but I've painted the girl's room pink! When I was pregnant with Noelle I pretty much vowed she'd never wear pink. Well, not exactly but everyone knew it wasn't my favorite. But after you have a second girl I think you just kind of give in. Though I am still super picky when it comes to pink, I have found some serious inspiration in the form of Taylor Sterling's instagram page (@taylorsterling). She made me believe in pink again and now I'm all in. 

The room is still under construction but the paint is dry so now I am gathering all the cute stuff I can find to make this their favorite place to be. We decided we'd have the girls share a room for now while we use the other main floor rooms for an office and guest bedroom. As they get older and desire more privacy, the move should be easy as they will still be steps from each other's door. 

The color on their walls is Island Hopping from Behr. We are currently searching for a toddler bed for Noelle. We initially thought we'd keep Noelle in her converted crib but it just makes more sense to convert it back to a crib for Lois and get Noelle a real big girl bed. The image below was my favorite when looking for inspiration!!
