4th of July Decor & Styling

6/28/2018

Even the most neutral space can benefit from some RED, WHITE & BLUE this time of year! I chose to focus my 4th of July decor in the dining room with budget friendly additons from my favs; Hobby Lobby, Home Goods & Target!
This holiday holds a special place in my heart. My grandparents threw a big 4th of July bash each year that brought all of our extended family & friends together to enjoy BBQ and fireworks. Some of my fondest memories with my cousins playing tag and writing our names with sparklers happened at these parties, and I looked forward every year to going shopping with my mom to find the perfect patriotic outfit. Bless it. ​

Ris is This Home Tour Series: Office + Bonus Room

Everyone has an “oh shit” area in their home. Whether that be a closet, corner, chair, or an entire room; there’s always that space that just accumulates, well ... shit! That area for me was the back bonus room. What the hell do you do with a one car garage sized room with no closet and semi-shoddy ventilation? Despite the urge to build an extensive box fortress, I instead created a usable space with multiple functionalities and lots of personality. Welcome to the office/video game/nap/future play room! 
I wanted this room to be my DO WHATEVER THE FUCK you want space and incorporate decor elements and color schemes I wouldn't have the cajones to use in our main living spaces. Queue the blush pink, llamas & phallic cacti! This room is truly my spirit animal and proof that you can have multiple design tastes and shouldn't be afraid to express them.

Ris is This Home Tour Series: Guest Bedroom

Welcome to the Guest Room, a.k.a. The Homie Crash Pad. Between out-of-town family and friends staying over after our shindigs, this room gets quite a bit of action. However, likely not a lot of THAT kind of action. At least... that's what I prefer to believe ;)

Ris is This Home Tour Series: Guest Bath Remodel

4/9/2018

0 Comments

 
You all chimed in on Instagram, and this week's popular vote for the Ris is This Home Tour Series reveal is the Guest Bathroom! I should have known that ya'll would want a Before & After. Well folks, here she is, in all her glory.

This bathroom began with brown cabinets and builders grade errthang, from crusty chrome hardware to the sweet sink/countertop combination. Living in the house for 3 years prior to reno, I made it work by painting the walls and decorated the shit out of it, but it was like putting lipstick on a pig. So when we first started talking about saving up to make magic happen, I was sure to work this baby into the equation.

We completed all bathroom renovations at the same time with the same materials and contractors as our Kitchen update. This renovation included new flooring, baseboards, sinks, countertops, and cabinet painting. I will list all materials and contractors at the bottom of this post. ​

Ris is This Home Tour Series: Master Bedroom

4/1/2018

​I tend to be very forthcoming with my writing, but as far as my recent posts go, ya'll have really only seen the front rooms of my home since going live in early March. 

That's why for the month of April, I'll be launching the Ris is This Home Tour Series. This 4 week series will feature a different room each Sunday so that you can become better acquainted with my design style and decor. Bare it all, if you will. Don't worry, I'll shave. 

This week, I'd like to introduce the Master Bedroom. Talk about getting REAL intimate REAL quick. But hell, going big because I'm already home.

Champagne Quality Wall & Closet Storage on a Beer Budget

Storage space is one of those phantom creatures that everyone wants but can never find or create enough of. It's a constant game of cat and mouse; organize one area just to acquire more shit in another, and forever chasing that pivotal moment when everything is unrealistically in order. With only one linen/coat closet combination for the whole house, I play this game often and try to be creative with every single nook and cranny I can get my stubby little hands on. Cue the underutilized laundry room as my next victim.

Budget Friendly Easter Decor

Decorating for different holidays throughout the year can bring some interest to your everyday decor. Especially after taking down all the rich green accents from Christmas, it's easy to feel like your home looks naked. To bring a little more life into the house and get geared up for spring, incorporating airy minty green is a nice transition.

Although, bunnies and speckled eggs aren't the reason for the Easter season, they sure are freakin' cute. Take a peak below to see how I incorporated an out of control Hobby Lobby trip into this year's Easter rustic bunny wabbit oasis.

Why You Should Toss All Your Towel Racks and Replace Them With Towel Hooks

2/15/2018

I first conceptualized the hierarchy of towels as a young child taking baths at my grandmother's house. Even as the favorite grandchild (don't burst my bubble, mmkay?) emerging from the tub sopping wet, I was FORBIDDEN from reaching for her perfectly hung, lace trimmed, pink coordinating towel set conveniently hanging on the towel rack adjacent to the tub. In her house, all bathing beauties were required to use the crunchy cabinet towels that still somehow smelled clean despite them being used and washed more years than we'd been alive.

Decorating Above Kitchen Cabinets

After a recent kitchen update, as I was dusting and organizing all our crap to put back into the cabinets, my man turned to me and said, "Babe, think we can keep the decor to a minimum now that you're not trying to distract people from our fugly counter-tops anymore?". What? Simplicity? What the hell is that? Look bucko, you can't cage this beast. So you know what I did? I moved my attention up. A good relationship is about compromise, right?
