Bathroom Reno!

A Relaxing New Bathroom!

This summer, we decided to renovate our bathroom! Also - just as a side note my before pictures were taken right before we painted which is why the walls are bare and have some white paint on them! We had the beach theme in mind when we first did our bathroom and the wonderful color scheme we had in mind did not go as planned...but the second time we nailed it! We also stuck to a tight budget during this project and I must say, I'm pretty happy we did because a few times we had to get creative and it turned out beautifully (at least in my opinion). We repainted our shelves as well as using some vases and other things we had lying around! So here are my photos...let me know what you think! I'd love to see your photos of your DIY rooms!

 My two semi-okay before and after shots!

 So here are some of the walls and the details. We painted one wall a darker blue, just in case people noticed that and thought the lighting was weird...it isn't! I also wanted to add in some close ups of the shelving and such, so that will be below as well as the beautiful Kate Spade shower curtain! I adore this shower curtain!

Thanks for reading! :) 

Fall Obsession

Fall has finally arrived!

And with it's wonderful arrival comes crunchy leaves, sweatshirts, pumpkins, overall happiness, and of course...candles! I love candles, I could have them burning 24/7 and be the happiest woman on earth. Fall is my absolute favorite season and it also happens to be my favorite candle season. 

I love decorative candles, especially if they match the season/holiday, but being who I am I can never bring myself to burn the pretty decorative candle. I buy the majority of my regular candles at Bath & Body Works. I get the 3-wick candles which are normally $20...I know it's a steep price to pay for candles! They have the 2 for $20 candle sale fairly often, so that is when I do all my buying in order to save money and it makes me feel better when I come home with a bunch of them! So as this is the season of favorites, I thought I'd share mine....

It's very difficult only to pick 3, but I did it. Since not everyone is awesome at describing the smell of candles, Bath & Body Works graciously does the work for you on the bottom of every candle. So here are the lovely scents of fall!

Leaves - "Celebrate the brilliant colors of autumn with this rich blend of golden nectar, red apple, and spiced berries"

Pumpkin Caramel Latte  - "Gather with friends and celebrate the season with this rich, warm, blend of creamy pumpkin, spiced caramel and sweet cream"

Cider Lane - "As sweet as a trip to the local apple orchard each year, a delicious fall blend of mulled cider, warm caramel and sweet cinnamon"

What are your fall favorites? :)
