MY HOME DECOR STYLE
I’ll be the first to admit home decor is NOT my thing… It’s taken me over 3 years to finally get my house decorated to truly feel like a “home”! After traveling almost all summer last year a friend of mine asked me if I was happy to be back home? Honestly, no I wasn’t. Not because I wanted to travel more, but because my house didn’t feel like “me” or make me happy to come home to. That’s when I decided I needed to redecorate a few things…
When I bought my house I was so rushed to get it decorated for my 30th birthday and to throw a housewarming party. I just bought all neutral stuff and whatever any other blogger had been posting about…which was all white stuff at the time. The biggest thing I knew I wanted to change was my couch. I’ve never had a sectional and super comfy couch so that was the first thing I went on the hunt for and I’m SO happy I bought it.
After I got the couch, I soon realized I needed a sofa table to go next to it because reaching for my drink on the coffee table was too difficult. The rest of the decor was easier to do because I already had a lot of it, or I knew I could find inexpensive decor things in time. I’m so happy I changed the rug to a black rug too.

Next, I really wanted to get rid of my gigantic dining table because “hi” it’s just me living here. I was trying to look for inspiration on Pinterest and saw a black dining table. I fell in love with it! It fits sooooo much better in my dining room and still looks so cute with my white dining chairs and cowhide rug.

Last, I never felt like my bedroom was ever fully decorated. I really liked having an all white bed, but I did want a little color. I had decided to move all of the navy accents up to my bedroom like these navy velvet curtains. Then I saw this amazing area rug and bought it on a whim. After I bought it though I couldn’t figure out how to blend the navy and brighter colors from the rug… Then I had an idea… PHOTOS! Like real life photos I’ve taken on a lot of my travels. So I found these gold frames for above my bed and some wooden frames for the nightstands then printed off photos (mostly from my iPhone) and ta-da!! I love it.

The kitchen stayed the same because it was the main selling point of the house for me. I actually got to pick out the backsplash and lights luckily. Although, my builder did a great job choosing the white quartz and white cabinets. The only thing I’d like to change eventually is putting in a white sink.
