Fab Pins of the Week

January 24, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: decor, fab pins of the week, fashion, gold, home, Pinterest, statement pieces, winter 1 Comment

Hey, hey it’s Friday!! I’m so glad you’re here and starting your weekend out with me πŸ™‚
I have completely been crushing on gold lately! So that’s what I’m sharing this week! Let’s get to it!!

1. I adore wearing sweaters in Winter! This year I have a few really cute statement sweaters that are not only comfy and warm, but super adorable! However, I only have one sweater that has elbow patches, and it’s not this cute!! I don’t know what it is about elbow patches, but I love them β™₯ Especially these ones pictured, they’re sparkly! I have found numerous tutorials on Pinterest for adding your own elbow patches, I may make this an upcoming project πŸ˜‰
2. This gold accent wall is fabulous! The perfect addition to this simple office. It also looks quite charming with the light grey wall next to it, which is perfect so you can mix metallics! I’m really, really into mixing metallics right now! Gold is making a come back, it’s no longer a thing of the past and I love it!
3. These pillows are fabulous!! They would be perfect in a feminine office and fantastic as a gift idea! These are available via an Etsy shop and she has a lot of darling, easily customizable pieces so be sure to check them out! I really love these, I see a DIY pillow cover post coming soon πŸ˜‰
4. I need this clutch! My husband probably wouldn’t agree with that haha, by looking in my closet it doesn’t look like I need much of anything! But this is such a gorgeous statement piece! Especially paired with a solid outfit, it makes the perfect statement! I found some similiar here, here and here!

Fab Pins of the Week

January 17, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: Black, claw foot tub, decor, fab pins of the week, home, Pinterest 2 Comments

Happy Friday!! Another week has flown by, do you feel that way too?
Looking forward to play-dates with friends, a little shopping, spending time with the fam and even my first jewelry party of 2014! 
This week I’ve been inspired by bold, black accents in decor!

1. Feminine- classy, I look at this picture and am just drawn to it! I’m in love with the gallery wall, it’s fantastic! The sporadic black frames give the wall depth! This is the perfect look for my office. I love the light colored couch with bold animal print pillows, and I really love the velvet green- fabric chair! It’s so much fun!
2. Those floors are the bees-knees! But, I’m a total sucker for a claw-foot tub!! This beautiful, black claw-foot tub makes the entire bathroom! At some point in my life, I really hope to own a claw-foot tub. They are just gorgeous, I can’t even image!!
3. So pretty! I love the mix of gold and rose gold accents! The simple black picture frame, along with the black and white photo create a calming combination for this cute little bathroom! I love seeing things I typically wouldn’t put together, and they turn out cute, like this one!
4. I love the hot pink used in this office space! I am just dying to get to decorating my office! I don’t “have” it yet because our basement isn’t finished, but it’s coming soon! I love browsing ideas and gathering a bunch of inspiration!

Fab Pins of the Week

T.G.I.F! With two snow days to start the week, I feel like my week has been cut short, but I’m embracing the weekend despite it!
Any exciting plans for the weekend? I left the house decorated for Winter in general after taking my Christmas stuff down, but now I’m over it and spending the day taking that all down! Oh, the joys of decorating β™₯  β™₯ 

 

Color is what has been inspiring me this week, so let’s get to it…

1. This gorgeous bright floral chair would be the perfect statement piece for my soon-to-be office! The variety of colors makes it easy to go with many colors! I’ve been torn on whether do decorate my office in pastels or brights. This chair has me thinking brights…. πŸ™‚
2. I am really in love with accenting with gold! I love this beautiful matte gold table lamp! It’s the perfect touch to this desk, and I imagine the entire office! The charming, sleek design of this lamp is very flattering to any office and a must-have for mine!!
3. More gold accents! Picture frames and printables are a simple and super affordable way to add charm and class to your office space! Not to mention, you can change out the printables as often as you want! I love the pops of the bright pink post it notes in the back too! Such a simple concept, yet bold impact! 
4. Fresh flowers!! Always a must… You can dress up any room just by adding fresh flowers! I love this sea foam blue glass, it makes the color of this gorgeous peony stand out even more! Imagine how perfect it would look on a beautiful white table!

Happy Friday πŸ™‚ I’m so thrilled December is here, we have an exciting month planned!
My little ones make Christmas so much fun, I truly adore celebrating, decorating and all the memory making that’s involved all December long!
This week’s fab pins are Christmas inspired of course!

1. This outdoor space just screams rustic warmth to meet! The gorgeous glow of the white snow, mixed with the warmth of the plaid blankets, wool pillows and candle-lit lanterns totally have me sold! This would be the perfect spot to take a break from watching the kids play in the snow! Followed by going inside and enjoying a nice cup of hot cocoa!
2. I’m in love with mini Christmas trees! I would have them in every room if my husband let me, lol! Again, I love the warm feeling of this porch! Pillows and comfy blankets always make everything a little better πŸ™‚ Oh, and candle light! I really just can’t get enough of candles this Season! They just create that magical glow!
3. Lantern love!! I using lanterns throughout the year, but they are especially magical during the Winter! I actually just scored an adorable new one from Jo Ann’s 70% off!
4. Oh my, that furry blanket looks so comfy!! Once again, the perfect combination of warm pillows, blankets, greenery and candles. How could you go wrong?!

Hey, hey it’s Friday!! Thanks so much for stopping by and starting your weekend out with me πŸ™‚
Even though November has just begun, amidst planning for Thanksgiving, I can’t help but think about Christmas! After all the posts I’ve been seeing on Facebook and other social media, I know I’m not the only one!!

Let’s get to my favorites….

1. This is such a gorgeous dining room! I’m in love with the wall color! It gives off the perfect mixture of gray and brown. I must say that Victorian sofa in the back is my favorite part of this room! It screams GLAM and ties the entire space together!
2. I love comfy wraps!! One of my favorite accessories in the Fall and Winter months! Love them paired with leggings or jeans and boots! I would love to have one of each of these pictured, they’re darling! Certainly perfect for those crisp, rainy Fall days!
3. Kind of in love with these dark blue cabinets and black countertops! Far from the traditional kitchen, but it’s bold and beautiful! How do you feel about the floating shelves? I personally, would not be a fan of them, I don’t want to see my dishes on display at all times!
4. Wow, just wow! This living room is absolutely stunning! I love the bold pieces, including the huge tufted ottoman and dark-printed pillows! It looks like the perfect place to curl up with a good book after a long day, enjoying a cup of hot tea next to the fire! Wouldn’t  you agree?

Oh, happy day, it’s Friday!! I CANNOT believe it’s November! 
I am, however, super excited it’s the weekend! How about you?
This weeks inspired pins were a few of my favorite Fall must-haves!
So, without further a-do, let’s get to it…
1.source   2.source
3.source   4.source
1. One of my favorite things about Fall is the comfy clothes, shoes and accessories that come along with it! An absolute must-have for me, is versatile sweaters and wraps. I love the functionality of wraps! It’s literally like wearing a blanket, I love it β™₯  β™₯ The neutral wrap pictured is the perfect color because it would go with just about anything! Wear it with a cotton long-sleeved shirt, leggings and tall boots for running errands in the day, or wear it with a sleek button up, boyfriend jeans and booties for a dinner date!
2. Oh, candles, how I love you so! I adore candles all year round, but they are perfectly romantic in the Fall and Winter months! Their illuminating glow creates a comfort and warming feel! I love candles like cinnamon, pumpkin spice and one of my favorites this year is Pumpkin Pecan Waffles from BBW, it’s the bomb!!
3. Obvious Fall favorite, is definitely a super delish drink to warm your bones on those bitter cold days! Starbucks is certainly one of my favorites, but every once in a while you will run into a fabulous recipe to make at home, just like this one! Salted caramel hot chocolate, oh my yum! We’re going to be giving this one a try very soon at our house (wink!).
4. How can you have enough blankets to cuddle up with in Fall and Winter? The answer is, you can’t! I love cuddling with the kids on the couch with a comfy, warm blanket or relaxing after a long day catching up on some of my shows! I also love to keep decorative throws around to add character to a room! It really gives it that warm feeling πŸ™‚

Happy Friday!!
Fall is the perfect time of the year to incorporate beautiful food displays!
Whether it be for get togethers, birthdays or Thanksgiving, I hope to give you a few ideas from these pins that have given me some inspiration this week!

1. I absolutely love the idea of having a caramel apple bar! Lucy from Craftberry Bush shared her adorable setup with a few different yummy mixtures! This is a simple way to let each guest create their own caramel apple without all the fuss! Darling, isn’t it!
2. What a gorgeous way to display food for your Fall party! I love the way galvanized metal looks with these simple finger foods. I love the simplicity of choosing different types of cheeses, pastries and fresh berries for such a statement!
3. I love apples all year around, but they are the perfect Fall fruit! They make gorgeous centerpieces with the perfect pops of color. I love how simple this display is using a wicker basket, fresh leaves and walnuts. 
4. Imagine this centerpiece for Thanksgiving.. Gorgeous!! I love the mixture of fresh red and white grapes, gourds, wheat and candles! Such a fantastic combination, wouldn’t you agree?

Hi there and welcome πŸ™‚ 
It’s a pleasure to have you here, starting your weekend out with me!
I’m still in full swing of prepping for the kids Halloween costume party, so this week’s pins are, again, Halloween inspired! 
Do you decorate/celebrate Halloween?
Do you allow your kids to go trick or treating?
We do not celebrate Halloween in our home, but we do allow our children to trick or treat. This year, however, I’m excited to host a party for the kids to have fun without all the freaky, gooey gore that typically comes with Halloween! Be sure to check back for the party reveal next week!
So let’s get to it…

1. Aren’t these Monster Apple Bites from We Do Fun Here absolutely adorable? I’m totally making these for our Halloween party, the kids will love them! Not to mention, they’re made with healthy ingredients! Head over and check out the full recipe πŸ™‚
2. Halloween party perfection, wow! I love every detail is beautifully placed! Of course I love the burlap tablecloth!
3. These adorable treat bags are the perfect touch for your little ones to keep their treats in! And they are just so stinkin’ cute! I love using paper bags from the dollar store, the possibilities are truly endless and you can’t get anything more budget friendly!
4. Holy moly these are cute! I’m not the best at baking, so more than likely mine would not turn out looking like this, but I might just have to give it a try! I love the bright green color from the non-traditional black and orange Halloween decor!

Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out some of my inspiration this week!
This week’s pins were Halloween related! We will be hosting a Kids Costume Party here in the next couple weeks, so I’m in full swing of preparing for it, fun!!

1. Isn’t this mummy wrapped pumpkin darling? This is the perfect, safe and non-messy craft for kids to create adorable, personalized pumpkins! Create the perfect wrap using gauze and add googly eyes that you can purchase from the dollar store! 
2. Create gorgeous, glowing pumpkins in a few easy steps! Instead  of the traditional carving technique, drill holes in a design and place mini white string lights on the inside! These are sure to brighten up your porch perfectly for Fall, and you can enjoy them long after Halloween is over!
3. Puppy chow may just be one of my favorite guilty pleasures! I have been coming across sooo many new recipes this season! This particular recipe yields the perfect Halloween mixture! If you’re looking for a satisfying snack for your Halloween party, look no longer, this is it! Your guests will be begging for more πŸ˜‰
4. This spook-tacular Halloween mantle is charmingly frightful! I love the mix of natural elements and bold accents! The black displays really make this mantle pop, don’t you think?!

Hello beautiful and happy Friday!
Thank you for stopping by and checking out a few of my favorite pins from this week!
I was drawn to the natural, rustic tones of each of these pins!
So without further ado, let’s get to it…

1. This centerpiece is absolutely stunning! It’s the perfect Fall arrangement, including hydrangeas and white pumpkins! The colors are breathtaking and delicate for this time of year! Yvonne from StoneGable is sharing her stunning Fall Home Tour, you won’t want to miss it!!
2. White, white, white! The French Country style of this bedroom just screams perfection! I adore everything about this bedroom! I could certainly see myself cuddled up here in the evenings with a nice cup of hot cocoa, catching up on my magazines or reading a book!
3. More French Country glam! I love the mix of rod iron, mercury glass, candles and fresh flowers! Such a simple setup, yet so gorgeous!! You don’t have to invest in costly centerpieces for parties or get-together’s, just grab a variety of small candle holders and illuminate with a tea light, add fresh flowers to a ornate vase and add a pretty tray if you have it! Sometimes it’s the simple things that can make a big impact πŸ™‚
4. Ahh, I just adore white pumpkins! So many gorgeous tones this year, these appear to have a hint of blue in them! We have visited a few pumpkin patches, and intend on a few more this season! I love checking out each places variety of pumpkins! Have you been to the pumpkin patch yet?
