Holiday Home Tour

Hey everyone, today I’m sharing my holiday home tour with World Market just in time for Christmas weekend. This is our second Christmas in this home, but our first Christmas as a married couple and with all of our new furniture so naturally I had to document it! You can see my kitchen in yesterday’s post here—>Top Kitchen Appliances For Less

We recently purchased the Samsung Frame TV to hang above our mantle for a cleaner look. It makes such  huge difference because you can set it to different paintings or your own photos when the tv is off. We also just renovated our fireplace this year from red brick to marble. The white marble really brightens up the whole room.

We use our guest closet for all of our extra outerwear so I created a mini closet using a rolling rack for my guests to use for their clothing & suitcase. I also keep a full length mirror in the room to make the bedroom appear larger. Last, but not least I leave a robe and some slippers in the guest room along with some bottled water in the bathroom. I also think it’s a nice touch to leave a sweet little treat and hand written note or photo in case they arrive during the nighttime when we’re sleeping.

28 Fun Facts About Me!

Happy Friday everyone and Happy Birthday to me! In honor of turning 28 today, I thought it would be fun to share 28 fun facts about myself. I’ll also be sharing more details about these facts on my Instagram stories this weekend. But first, I have to thank Sucre in New Orleans for making me the most beautiful macaron cake I’ve ever seen. And would you believe if I said that it tasted even better than it looked? Because it did!

28 Fun Facts About Me:

  1. I’m Filipino and Italian. My mom is full Italian and my dad is full Filipino.

2) My husband, Blake and I have been together since high school so we’re currently going on 13 years! Crazy, right?

3) I interned in Disney World when I was junior in college. I wanted to be a princess (Jasmine or Pocahontas), but I was “too short” so I ended up taking out at the trash at Peco’s Bill in Magic Kingdom for four months of my life instead. Let’s just say I don’t consider Disney World to be the most magical place on earth anymore. LOL

4) I’m always hungry and never turn down Chick-fil-a.

5) My personal blog interview was published in the LiketoKnow.it coffee table book this past month. See here—>Stories From The Influencer Next Door

6) I casually host dance parties and perform impromptu musicals for my husband all the time even when doesn’t ask me to, which by the way….he never asks me to! LOL

7) When I was little I wanted to be an actor and singer. I actually still dream about it.

8) I auditioned for the tv show Glee when I was in college. Obviously, they didn’t cast me, but we all know they’re clearly missing out. 😉

9) I have zero concept of time all thanks to my mother who made me late for everything growing up, but I’m working on it. I always set my clocks 10 minutes ahead to try and help.

10) I hate scary movies and can’t even watch the previews. When Blake and I go to the movies, I wait outside of the theatre until the previews over and then he calls me in. That’s how big of a baby I am!

11) When I started my blog, I barely knew how to use a computer! Now I run my own website.

12) I went to LSU for 5 years, but never graduated because my blog started bringing more opportunities than school did. However, I can always go back one day! Maybe.

13) I never let Blake and I go to bed mad at each other.

14) I love hot coffee in the morning, which I put in the microwave at least five times before finishing it.

15) Some of my favorite shows include: Friends, The Office, Modern Family and This Is Us

16) While I love brunch, it also stresses me out because I hate skipping lunch. LOL I love all meals though and the thought of skipping one gives me anxiety.

17) I’m a notorious overpacker, yet I never even get around to wearing even half of the things I packed.

18) I am the most positive person you will ever meet. My glass is always half full!

 I thought I knew 28 fun facts about myself, but now I’m running out of things to say so I’m going to let Blake take over. This should be interesting…

8 more things you don’t know about me (written by Blake):

19) Jenn is a terrible driver. Do not get in the car with her or ask her for directions unless you’re looking for the nearest Chick-fil-a.

20) She used to only watch the Disney channel until I recently converted her to Netflix this past year.

21) Jenn doesn’t know how to cook, but she always knows how to make me laugh. She has the best sense of humor and always knows how to laugh at herself.

22) We almost didn’t get to go on our first date because she was in trouble for leaving the garage door open.

23) Her meal was only $4 on our first date. Clearly that was a trick. Let’s just say it’s never been under $4 since!

24) She has made me multiple scrapbooks over the years “that I read everyday because I love them!” 😉

25) She’ll always make you feel like the smartest person in the room…;)

26) Every morning when I bring her coffee in bed, she says “bring me my robes!” like she’s the queen of the house or something. LOL! She also requests a pair of socks her feet are always cold.

27) She dances around the house way more than y’all witness on Instagram stories.

28) She is literally the most annoying person I know, but I can’t imagine anyone else more annoying that I would rather spend the rest of my life with! Happy Birthday Jenn! I love you!

My Bedroom Design Experience With Havenly

Good morning readers, today I’m sharing my bedroom design experience with Havenly. As you all know I love to travel, but nothing beats the feeling of coming home to my crisp, clean, white room and enormous, comfortable bed. Let me back up some though…my bed has always looked like a heavenly cloud of fluff that you want to dive into, but as for my the rest of my room, well that is whole other story. To make that long story short, we decided to work on all the visible parts of the house first and then our bedroom last since guests rarely ever come into our room.

However, we all know how long home decor projects can drag out when you keep putting them off. So after about a year of living in our ugly, unfinished, barely-even-started room, I decided to bite the bullet and partner with Havenly to custom design my dream bedroom. I wanted to wake up in my room every morning feeling refreshed, happy and inspired instead of messy, unfinished and lazy. I honestly think the design and color scheme of your room can affect your mood so I knew it was time to get work.

white-tufted-bedding

After submitting my online home decor style survey, Havenly matched me with the most amazing designer.  Once they matched us together, I filled out an online page with my ideal budget, room size and inspiration. We immediately got to work knowing that room designs can take quite a while because even after you make a decision on a piece of furniture, you still have to wait on shipping and then you actually have to put it together. Thankfully, my designer helped speed up the entire process by scouring the internet until she found the perfect pieces to complete my room. Then she put together a design rendering so I could see exactly how everything would look.

You can read all about the process with Havenly here—> How It Works

Scroll through this post to see how my online room design with Havenly turned out.

HOTR design

I told my designer that I wanted to go for an all white look because I can always swap out my throw pillows to add in some color. I also wanted glam furniture with mirrored or textured details. When my designer sent me this design rendering I instantly fell it love. She pretty much hit the nail on the head with this design. It included everything I wanted from the mirrored nightstands and croc-textured dressers to the crisp white headboard and fluffy duvet cover. I have to say that favorite part of my room might be the two mirrors hanging above the nightstands. I think it makes the room appear larger and they also tie in all of the gold accents.

You can find my gorgeous Ripley Gold Table Lamps at Lamps Plus.

We purchased this custom-made, microsuede plush headboard with a tufted wingback silhouette from World Market. I especially love the grommet details that double line that sides of the headboard.

This gold and white marble table lamp from Lamps Plus is my everything!

My white pintuck duvet cover and euro shams can be found at Crane & Canopy.

My Blush Faux Fur Throw Pillows are from Lulu & Georgia and 12 x 36 Duma Spots Lumbar Pillow Cover is from Willa Skye. I had to order the custom size pillow insert separately here—>United Pillow

As I mentioned before, these Arch Wall Mirrors are two of my favorite additions to the room along with these mirrored nightstands.

Your Questions Answered:

Who was your designer? Amy Fasnacht

How long did the entire process take? From start to finish including the Havenly online survey, shipping and assembling about three months.

Would you design another a room in your home with Havenly? Funny you ask! Now that I know how much easier the process is when working with Havenly, I don’t know if I’ll ever want to do it by myself again!

Did your boyfriend have any say in the design? He actually prefers not to be involved with any home decor decisions. As long as both our couch and mattress are comfortable, he doesn’t want know anything about the rest, which works for me because then I’m allowed to bring home pink chairs and pillows! lol
