Celebrating Christmas At Home

This Christmas is unique as it’s our first Christmas with our biggest blessing – our son, Liam! We’re SO excited to start making memories with him and building upon our family traditions. This year, we wanted to get matching holiday pajamas for every member of our family – including our doodles, Lilly and Luca.

Walmart Fashion is our go-to for Christmas jammies! Walmart has everything you need for your holiday festivities with your family and for creating memories that will last a lifetime. We selected these three as our favorites and need help choosing which ones we should wear on Christmas eve. They may end up on our holiday cards too! Which ones would you choose?! Comment below!

  1. Fair Isle Stipe Matching Family Jammies
  2. Striped Deer Matching Family Jammies
  3. Vintage Santa Matching Family Jammies

Walmart Fashion is also the best option to get stylish gifts for less for the whole family. I’m linking some of my favorite gifts finds from Walmart below too.

For Him!

For Her!

For Baby!

Nursery Reveal

I’m finally sharing our finished nursery. I still have to invest in artwork for some of the walls in his little room. I’m so pleased with how this turned out! Our vision came to life with this space’s mood board and color scheme. I can’t wait to read stories to him and have him enjoy his room.

For his changing table and dresser, we decided to go with the Skip Hop changing pad since it’s wipeable and can be cleaned easier. I also loved the detail on the side of the dresser. The mirror we purchased is from Hobby Lobby. The lamp is great because it has a foot push button, so it’s great when you’re busy holding baby. The olive tree is from Amazon and the planter is from HomeGoods. We decided to go with the Ubbi Diaper Pail, so I’ll report back to see how it holds up.

Board and Batten Half Bath DIY Reveal

A few months ago, we wanted to spruce up our half bath in our home. Oftentimes, people will say your half bath should be a statement when it comes to interior design as that’s the first room, and sometimes only other room, guests see in your home.

If you follow me on Instagram Stories, you saw we were trying to decide between wallpaper and board and batten prior to starting this project and welcomed feedback from you all on which route to go.

As our style has evolved, we have been trying to incorporate more earth tones, neutrals, and black into our home. We decided to make our half bath a dark and moody space. We went for board and batten, and since this was our first time, we went for a simple and achievable design.

We do have textured walls. Although some people online recommend not doing board and batten on textured walls, we did and thought it looked fine. Those who recommend otherwise suggest wood paneling the wall before doing board and batten designs. If you’re contemplating trying this at home, it really is up to you and what you think looks best. After all, it is your home. 😉

Because of our textured walls though, we chose not to pursue wallpaper. We were interested in wallpaper with a design or pattern, so it would’ve been difficult to obtain a flat look. Some of you also said that wallpaper in a bathroom is usually a no-go because of the moisture – it may come off the wall or deteriorate quickly.

The Process

If I’m being frank, my husband did most of the work. He loves woodworking, so this was a fun task for him. He measured and used a miter saw to cut the wood. We purchased 1/2 inch thick wood from The Home Depot for the board and batten.

My husband used a staple gun to adhere the wood onto the wall. After the wood was placed, he caulked the seams and taped the edges so we wouldn’t get caulking on the other walls. He recommends cutting a very small hole for the tip of the caulking as that will minimize the chances of getting it everywhere.

After this, it was time to prime and then paint. This is where I was able to contribute the most. 🙂 We primed the wall with a gray primer called KILZ from The Home Depot, which works for both interior or exterior jobs. We used roller and paintbrushes to get in all of the crevices. After priming, we were ready to finally paint. We used Glidden’s Black Magic Satin paint to make the room really pop. We chose satin paint because they tend to be easier to clean, and the guest bath tends to get utilized a lot in a home.

The Finished Product

After a few coats of paint, we caulked again and did touch-ups. My husband had extra wood in the garage from another project, and we decided to repurpose it for the light wood shelves above the toilet. We also found a few items at Home Goods to decorate them. I also purchased this canvas from The Canvas Hut to complete the look, if you use my code ATHOMEDANIO, you get 20% off. I will say their shipping is a little delayed, which is why waited to do our reveal so just keep that in mind when you make your purchase. During a grocery trip to Walmart, I grabbed this matted frame to match.

Below are also some of the items we used and sources for the items in our half bath. I linked what I could for you. As always, let me know if you decide to try a board and batten project at home. If you have additional tips, let us know in the comments.

Spicing up Dining Room Table for Thanksgiving & Holidays

As the holidays approach, I always want to invest in items that will grow with us for years to come. I’m a huge proponent of staying within your color scheme for your home and implementing accent colors throughout the holidays. It also creates a welcoming dining tablescape for your guests if you’re hosting.

I chose a cream, black, and gold color scheme for the plateware, and serving dishes tie it all together. The pie dishes are adorable and dishwasher safe. The pumpkin-shaped wooden board is perfect for a pre-feast appetizer or charcuterie board. The faux garland is a nice touch to your dining room table.

This year, I wanted to decorate our table for Thanksgiving with these items from Walmart. Walmart Home has such a wide variety of items to choose from and free shipping of over $35 worth of items makes it easy to shop from the comfort of your home. Walmart has affordable and stylish decor for your home for all seasons.

If you’d like to replicate the same look, I tagged the sources below in the image. Just hover over the items you’re interested in. I also linked similar items in case the specific ones I used are out of stock. While you’re browsing holiday decor, they also have great gift options for those who love home decor.

Pie dishes | Napkins | Pumpkin-Shaped Cheeseboard | Cake Stand with Glass Cover | Pumpkin Garland | Placemats | Gold Flatware | Dinnerware

I like how this turned out and may keep a similar set-up for the Christmas holiday season! Let me know if you try this at home. I’d love to see it!

Christmas Themes

With it being our first Christmas in our new home, we are so excited to finally decorate for Christmas! We’re starting from scratch since we don’t have a tree or any decorations really! It will be a slow and steady process for us, but creating mood-boards to get some inspiration has always helped me in my personal and professional life. I’ve created some different color Christmas themes to get you inspired to shop Christmas decor for your home.

Icy Blue Christmas

I’m a huge fan of the color blue! This is an accent color throughout our home. I feel like this non-traditional Christmas color can really make your Christmas tree pop! You can either opt for blue and white or blue and silver and/or gold. I feel like any of those combinations would look lovely in any home.

Red and Gold Christmas

Another great color is traditional red! This is the signature Christmas color. I’m a fan of tradition when it comes to holidays, and I believe this color is timeless and very versatile. You can also easily find red decor for Christmas, while other colors may be harder to find. My style tip is to add a little a bit of gold to make it sparkle and pop.

Gold and White Christmas

The gold and white for Christmas is also beautiful and timeless. It creates a more neutral look for those who don’t prefer red but still want the holiday sparkle in their homes. You can also mix it up with white, gold and silver, or other neutral colors.

With either of these you can opt for a flocked tree or a traditional natural tree. They’re both beautiful in my opinion. With the flocked tree, you do have to worry about some shedding, but I bet it’s a risk I’d be willing to take. 🙂

As always, please reach out if you use any of the above color schemes or you get inspired to shop some of the items in the mood-boards. I’m excited to share my color selection with you all very soon!

Front Lawn Refresh

Hey there! It’s summer in Texas and this heat is no joke! I’ve grown up here most of my life, but I still can’t get used to this heat every summer. My fiancé, Casey, and I worked outside on our front yard this past weekend, and I’ve gotta share the progress we’ve made.

We haven’t done much to it since we built our home and moved in six months ago. So, we decided it was time for a little refresh. Since we’re spending more time outside, we’ve noticed beautiful blooms and flowers we wanted to incorporate into our landscaping. Casey’s parents gifted us with a hibiscus plant, and we feel like it adds a nice pop of color.

This is the before!

Before the landscape refresh

The mulch, however, was getting rough looking. So, we decided it was time to get some more. We also weren’t fans of the bush to the left of the pathway. We took that out and opted to add crushed limestone from our local landscaping supply store and a planter with Bougainvilleas from Calloway’s Nursery. One of the red bushes was also dead, so it was time to just take that baby out.

We also wanted to light up the entryway at night. Some family members and guests have almost missed a step quite a few times! We got these solar path lights from Home Depot and placed them along the pathway. In addition to these, we got these spotlights from Walmart to light up our trees.

Here’s the after!

After the refresh! I absolutely love the pink flowers!

We went with black mulch all around the front and a nice and sturdy gray pot for the left side with crushed limestone underneath. Overall, this was fairly inexpensive to do, and we did it all ourselves. Are you sprucing up your front yard? What other flowers should we plant? We’re starting to learn more about landscaping as first-time home buyers and surprisingly enjoy doing yard work… we just wish it was a little cooler in Texas!
