Over the years I have done many tours here of fall decorating and many seasonal decor blog hops. I remember thinking wayy back how important they were and how excited they were to be asked to be part of a group of other bloggers to share my home linked up to their blogs. Its still just as beneficial to bloggers, but since time and being exhausted from so much that comes with preparing and following up from the posts...I've decided to not continue to do so. I have shared an IG stories blog hop ... Read more

The way of the European is to enjoy coffee or espresso both afternoon, mornings, and evenings. The European life is about gathering around good food and drinks with friends or family to enjoy conversation and rest. I tell ya they definitely got it right! Growing up Italian my family has always been espresso drinkers. I grew up with a little espresso in my milk every morning even as a child. As an adult I started drinking more American coffee (maybe because it lasts longer) but I love the idea of ... Read more

This post has been weeks in the making, but with the market two weeks ago, pouring candles, shipping, and planning for fall...it just has been pushed back, but no longer!!!!

We met through social media and I just always felt a connection to her spirit and entrepreneurial ... Read more

I keep saying I can't wait to tell the journey of Fleur & Flame some day...its because when God moves, he moves. The devil will certainly put obstacles in your way when God has a vision...but being persistent just knowing this was a dream from the Lord has kept me focused. I gave up on fleur & flame quite a few times mentally...but here I am a year and a half later and not giving up on the vision. We have changed a lot since April 2020 but we pivoted, grew, and kept dreaming! This dream ... Read more

I shared last month a post all about my favorite European Design accounts I follow on Instagram. Whether they are accounts that live in Europe or like myself have European influence here in the states. I just love following so many beautiful inspiration photos, especially since we live in a time when everything is about quick likes and follows. I like to slow down my process of digesting good quality influence to challenge my design skills and my lifestyle. I know what you see on social media ... Read more

Okay so for real, I love this bedding so much, hubby and I have been raving about these super soft organic ... Read more

I know some of you might of cringed when you read that title and some of you might be celebrating fall approaching.

What's trending for fall 2021? Warm rustic and global textures and solid throws I think for a while we had seen chunky knit throws, gingham patterns, and fleece type blankets for fall, but this ...

I finally checked off visiting Brimfield Antique Show in Brimfield, MA, from my bucket list and it was such a wonderful opportunity! I can't wait to go back already, but I thought I would share a few details and some photos from my day over there shopping! Just a little background on what is Brimfield: So rookie over here but Brimfield is stretched out to accommodate 1,000's of vendors and about 50,000 guests during the 6 day stretch that they host 3 times a year. We attended the HOT one in ... Read more

One of my favorite spots in my home that I love to switch out every season is our mudroom. It has become the space that I usually water my plants or fill my watering can in. I leave my garden boots here, and as of recently hang my laundry out to dry. It's a room that definitely gets used and I love having it fit the sunny season with décor that reflects my garden days. When Christmas Tree Shops reached out about styling a space in my home using their exclusive Grainhouse products, the mudroom ... Read more
