Oh Happy Day!

Well, it must be a happy day for a Saturday post, huh?  I am not a ceiling fan loving kind of girl.  No way.  No how.  Yes, we do live in the South but I can do without a ceiling fan in every room except our bedroom.  So, a fan in one of the prettiest and largest rooms in our house was a big no thank you!  When we first moved in, I had ever so slightly maxed out our lighting budget so we put a ceiling fan in the living room for the short term.  Maybe it was the short term to me and the long term for my hubby but the lighting fairies came to my rescue.  You see, for some unknown and ever so wonderful reason, our less than a year old ceiling fan quit working.  Maybe the elf on the shelf really is real?!?  Because that is most definitely what this momma wanted for Christmas!  So, one day my hubby said “fine, buy you a chandelier.”  LOL.  I had my eye on this beaded beauty for quite some time so it was a quick click and purchase!  Here is what I chose…

Before

Here’s the true before of our living room before we moved in.  I PROMISE to blog a full detail on our living room transformation once our Holiday decor comes down.  Until then, there’s a quick shopping and paint color reference if you scroll way on down.

And now here’s the after but really the before now.  Make sense?

    It’s beautiful!!! Love all your light fixtures!
    Too funny, when I started watching the transformation through your blog posts, my first thought was: how does she live in the south without a ceiling fan?? Haha! So what ceiling fan did you put in your bedroom?

      Thank you Haley! Haha it’s not bad in our living room but it’s a must in our bedroom! It’s a somewhat simple ceiling fan. I will be doing a master bedroom post soon and I will show it :-). Thanks for reading!

Can’t even remember the last time I posted a ran Can’t even remember the last time I posted a random house view 💗 Gosh I miss the old IG days! Earlier this week I was drying my hair and saw the sunlight shining through the mirror and had to snap a picture. I’d say our 1908 home “library” functions much better as a bathroom these days 🥰 Just might be my favorite room renovation!
THIS @varaluz CHANDY 😍 I found this audio and i THIS @varaluz CHANDY 😍 I found this audio and it I reminded me of the daily… hourly… sounds that come from my ten year old 🤣 And possibly what I sounded like when I told Ab that she HAD to come see this beautiful new chandelier! It just went up in our historic renovation project and I’m in LOVE ♥️ Sharing more new renovation/design updates on stories today! P.S. We are lowering it for the actual room design but the “box installation” 😉 had it up a bit higher.

Renovating cabins together is where it all began f Renovating cabins together is where it all began for us ♥️ Looking back I can’t believe how much John just leapt right into it all with the first cabin I purchased just six months into dating but those moments are ultimately what led us to eventually take a chance and merge careers. I’ll never forget our 7am chat on the beach over Spring Break 2021 when we decided to go for it. We chose his resignation date and prayed we could make it all work! Needless to say, one of the best decisions we’ve made. It’s not for everyone but working alongside my spouse is something I genuinely love. It’s the joint passion, path, visions, sacrifices and small victories that you get to experience together that makes what we do seem less like work and more like an adventure. Of course this project is complete but y’all know me… always adding and fluffing and zushing and dreaming! Here’s a peek at what we were up to last weekend. P.S. I shared a much bigger and better peek at the newly installed and newly styled pot rail in our kitchen on the blog this morning along with a tutorial on how to drill into tile. P.S.S. @serenaandlily is having their Spring Design Event where EVERYTHING (including sale items and this gorgeous new rug) are 20% OFF with CODE: SPRING 🌺 Happy halfway to the weekend again!

Our Portugal inspired fireplace is complete 💙 I Our Portugal inspired fireplace is complete 💙 I once heard that a home should speak about and speak to the people who live in them… or something like that 😉 and it’s stuck with me ever since. Although we completed the full renovation of our home years ago, my favorite part has been infusing us into making it feel like home. From travel trinkets to family memories and inspirations from abroad, that last 15% is always my favorite design part of all. Sharing all of the details on the blog and here…

Our family was blessed with the absolute sweetest Our family was blessed with the absolute sweetest and most adorable student from France this month and it just so happened to be her 15th birthday yesterday! Although I thought it might be a bit creepy for me to stick to our standard tradition of sneaking into the girlies bedrooms at night for their birthday balloon wake-up “surprise”… I did sneak in Caroline’s room while she was in school yesterday. I know it can’t be easy to be away for so long so I wanted to treat her like my own and do a little simple something. It’s been such a blessing to have another kiddo join our big, crazy family this month. Joyeux Anniversaire Caroline! 🇫🇷
