Styling 101: How to Style an Entryway

Happy Wednesday folks!

First and most importantly...

Tuesday at 6:21 am I became an Aunt! Little Allison is so precious I just want to gobble her up! Thankfully I get to enjoy these first few weeks with her close by in Dallas because after that she will reside with her mommy and daddy in Warsaw, Poland! Sigh...guess I'll just have to go out there if I want to snuggle her. Tough life right?!

OMG look! That's the word stylist...followed by my name...I'm legit you guys!

Today you can find me over on the Wisteria blog Vine talking you through how to style an entryway step by step. I had fun putting this together and hopefully you'll enjoy reading it!

I actually styled all three shots that are currently on the Wisteria homepage. It's crazy! 

What do you guys think?

Details Around My House

Freshening things up for Spring with a few little things here and there.

New pillows from Ecuador are out.

The detail on them is fabulous. All embroidered on velvet. Can't believe I scored both of these for $35.

Added some new art to the gallery wall. (the one on the left) My husband said most of the art in our home was made by me and he wanted to make something. So naturally, Mr. Computer Guy wrote a program to generate these sweet abstract images from a photo. Of course his art is still made by a computer, love that!

Been thinking about rearranging my living room, but that's a whole other post!

Changed things up on the mantle.

I'm in love with this agate clock my parents got me for Christmas. You know rocks are my thang!

What Style are You?

I get asked a lot what my "style" is both in apparel and home decor and I always find it a hard question to answer. Of course because I like so many different things but I also just buy what I like, no matter what it may be. Sometimes I answer with catchy phrases like "Eclectic Contemporary" or "Boho Chic" and maybe "Glam Eclectic" but what do these things even mean? Who really knows! So, I ask what do you say when asked "what is your style?"

Are you...

 

A lover of white...

Belgian style antiques and reproductions...

Minimalist in wide open spaces...

Colorful and cozy in a nook...

Vintage classics...

Eclectic Contemporary...

All things print, pattern, and color...

More one the modern side...

A little bit retro...

So tell me friends, how do you describe your style?

Happy Weekend!

Stylist Twig Hutchinson

I recently came across stylist Twig Hutchinson thanks to my friend Jennifer and I am smitten! She is the force behind many lovely pictures you are already familiar with...

...just to name a few.

But her website is full of so many gorgeous images it's hard to choose my favorites to share with you!

Obviously the dancer in me loves this image. I wish I could buy a print and hang it as artwork. It would look lovely in my master bedroom.

Love the artist at work type of shots. I always love to see photos from behind the scenes of a photo, that makes sense right? I guess it's the process of creation that I find interesting.

I could just imagine my girls and I spending the night here around the campfire, roasting marshmellows and watching for shooting stars.

Awesome.

I just love her style. It seems so natural and not overly styled. She has even been commisioned to design stores as well. Check out her website for more lovely inspiration!

Have a great weekend everyone, and for my American readers enjoy your holiday!
