House Update

We’ve been in our house 3 months now and are making slow progress on decor – it feels like there’s no time for house stuff with the kiddos, but I tell myself that we will be here a long time and don’t have to be ‘finished’ any time soon.

Emerson’s room never looks this clean, ha. We did a wallpaper accent wall in her room with some old Serena & Lily wallpaper I got on clearance last year. I hope to replace the light fixture eventually. She saw the wall and said it was the most beautiful room she’d ever seen:)

Everything in our bedroom worked perfectly in so we didn’t need to buy anything! We finally hung a picture over the fireplace and I need to figure out if we want a wallpaper wall in here or some artwork over the bed.

A friend is going to help me style the shelves because that’s not a skill of mine. I’m having a hard time finding a wool 9×12 rug for this space that isn’t thousands of dollars, works with the ottoman, and can handle two kids and a cat. What do you think?

We did order a larger couch to go in the living room and it’s supposed to arrive tomorrow!!! I can’t wait until we can all fit on the couch again.

I wanted to wallpaper the powder room since it’s such a small space and I knew I could do something funky. We used the Serena & Lily Granada paper and I LOVE how it turned out! I’d be ok if my whole house looked like the catalogue:)

The next thing on my list is to figure out what to do with this light fixture. Some people have told me to spray paint it, but I think it’s too big/heavy for the space and would love something more intricate and soft.

I’m so happy to be here and settled!
