I just got this new neutral rug for our living room and it has been a bestseller for awhile now. I love how it brightened up the room so much. Its on major sale right now – over 50% off!

Rug // White Chair // Faux Tree // Frames // coffee table bowl // coffee table box

last week I did a powder bathroom refresh. I still need to get some family pics in the frames but Targets new home arrivals are so good and an affordable way to freshen up a space!   I added these frames to the wall, and the towel holder and flowers for height. Everything linked here.

To get the process started, I sent them pictures of the space and also gave them a few function requests that I had on my must-haves: a big console for the entry way and I wanted something large scale above it. On the other side of the stairs I wanted  a comfortable seating nook that wouldn’t clash with our living room decor since they are so close to each other. As far as the general vibe, I just wanted something warm and welcoming that flowed with the rest of our house –  and they really nailed it!

We actually shot two different console tables. One with storage and one that has a more open feel. I love both! The one with cabinets is super similar to another piece of furniture we have in our dining room so I ended up going with the open one, but I loved both so much I wanted to share the styling with each 🙂

CONSOLE OPTION 1:

This is Shea (@studiomcgee) and the owner of Mcgee and Co. We’ve been friends on insta and got to finally meet during this project, she’s as sweet and beautiful in real life! Make sure to go follow her!

This is the first console option with the storage. I love the caning on it and natural wood tones.

This framed beach print! I think is the single piece that most captures our style – coastal casual.

Obsessed with these vases! The come in three different sizes and the matte black is the perfect texture to tie in the black accents throughout the rest of the house. Kristine, one of Studio McGee‘s stylists and is my favorite to work with, just pulled this greenery from a tree. I had never thought of that before but it’s really a brilliant way to get some extra height.  This bowl was another piece I instantly fell in love with the second I saw it and it’s actually a good price point! I was expecting it to be a lot more expensive given how heavy and high quality it felt.

The Studio McGee team picked out this linen bench and this was probably the most surprising piece for me! I don’t think I would have picked it out for myself, but that’s why they are the pros! The slipcover really helps to break up all the open space with the metal banisters so I love how it brings some weight to that area. It’s also super comfortable and the perfect quick seat when we’re running in or out quickly.

I’m also so happy with the rug they went with! I had been on the hunt for the right rug for the entry way – one that had a little bit of pattern to break up all the solids throughout the house, but also something that would complement the living room instead of competing with it. This striped jute rug was the perfect medium!

CONSOLE OPTION 2:

Below is the second console option and the one we ended up going with. I love the open feel of it, subtle black hardware accents, and detailing on the legs.

SEATING NOOK:

This nook by the stairs was probably the spot in the house that had me the most stumped. It’s small enough that I couldn’t add large furniture or it would block the entry to the kitchen/dining room but also big enough that I needed to bring in some height.

These two chairs were really the perfect choice for this little sitting nook. They are actually comfortable too and I love Studio McGee kept the furniture in this space neutral so I could swap about the accents to transition each space for the season by swapping out the pillows or florals. I also love the height this floor lamp brings in to balance out the height of the mirror.

My favorite piece in this space is the oversized mirror. You guys know how many mirror selfies make their way to my IG or stories, so this seemed like the perfect spot to snap a quick outfit pic on my way out the door! It also brings a much needed height to the space since the ceilings are so high.

OUTFIT DETAILS: GREY CROPPED TEE | WOVEN MAXI SKIRT (ON SALE 30% OFF) | DENIM JACKET (SIMILAR HERE) | SANDALS (ON SALE UNDER $50)

ENTRYWAY DETAILS: CONSOLE TABLE | FRAMED BEACH PRINT | WHITE BOWL | BLACK VASES | WHITE LAMP | DIOR BOOK | TOM FORD BOOK | SCULPTURE (SIMILAR HERE AND LOVE THIS ONE) | BLUE LINEN BENCH | STRIPED JUTE RUG | STRIPED THROW (UNDER $100)

DETAILS: BRASS CHANDELIER (AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE HERE) | DOOR HARDWARE (AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE HERE) | WOOD FLOORS (COLOR: WINTER OAK) | PAINT (COLOR: POLAR BEAR WHITE)

I couldn’t be happier with this space! It was neutral but still brought in some soft colors and tones to make it feel welcoming and lived in. Everything is from their shop, McGee & Co. If you haven’t checked out their shop, you need to! All of their pieces are so beautiful and the highest quality. Every time I see something I love online, I’m even more blown away by how beautiful it is in person!

Here’s a video of our full transformation!

Below are a few more of my favorite pieces from McGee and Co right now! I’m currently adding all this holiday-related to my cart – they have the best options!

SPLURGE:  One | Two | Three | Four | Five

SAVE: One | Two | Three | Four | Five 

I had no idea when starting to decorate and furnish how many little details go into it! Picking even the smaller things like console tables to coordinate with everything else in the space turned into a rabbit hole of exploring. We are working with an interior designer (@erinhansendesign) which helps a TON! But I’ve come to love looking at other pieces even after we finalize our own 🙂  I get so many questions on where things are from that I thought I would share some splurge vs save inspiration as I find it along the way. We just ordered this console table for my entry way and I can’t wait for it to get here! The one thing I have realized is that furniture takes WAY longer than clothes I wish we could get everything in a couple days like everything else 😉 I’m also obsessed with this rattan one (this save option is such a steal under $200!)! We have got a lot of cute textured pieces for our home, so I think a console table is a great place to bring that in. Which console table below is your favorite? What spaces do you want me to share more inspo on?

Hope you’re all having a great week!

Christine

Hey guys!  Its been a minute…but I am back!  Wanted to take some extra time after the holiday to finish up things on our house and spend time with my family. It was an awesome break but I am really excited for this year and whats to come!  Since I’ve been gone for awhile, I thought I would do a quick 5 things update:

1. We still haven’t moved into our house…but its SOOOOO close!  I know I’ve said this a couple times but I think we might be moving in this weekend! (I added a bunch of home update pics on my instagram stories so if you missed it, you can click on the home highlight reel to catch up!)
2. A lot of you guys have asked about our exterior lights, I am so excited about how they turned out. Here’s a link to the lights.
3. Just left on my first work trip of the year with Lancome to Sonoma! Its my first time here…any suggestions?
4. I was looking through pics of my pregnancy announcement with Beckam today and my best friend Jen and I realized her due date coming up is the exact same day that Beckam was due back in March of 2014!  B came 5 days early and she is measuring a week ahead, so how crazy would it be if her new baby boy has the same birthday as B?!
5.  Our internet has been out at our house for over a month, and they keep saying they will send a new router and they haven’t yet!!! Freaking Century Link…don’t use them!! There are so many shows we have been wanting to watch on Netflix and haven’t been able to catch up on!  But we finally watched Birdbox…I normally hate scary movies and to be honest I had to cover my eyes a couple of times, but I loved it!  I love a good suspenseful movie. What have you been watching on Netflix lately?
