It’s official: 2019 is all about the color blue — Blueprint, to be exact — at least according to Behr. The paint company revealed Blueprint S740-5, a warm, soft hue, as the brand’s 2019 Color Of The Year, describing the shade as “a mid-tone blue that charts a course for people to reimagine the colors and design of their home.” The paint company says it’s meant to signify authenticity, confidence, and timelessness. As far as blues go, this one’s pretty stunning — it feels cozy and inviting, but not overpowering.

Erika Woelfel, Behr’s vice president of color and creative services, called the shade an “instant classic,” adding that, “Much like the sketches builders rely on to bring an architectural design to life, Blueprint S470-5 lays a foundation for consumers to make their unique vision a reality.” Continue Reading >>>

via MyDomaine.com – The modern farmhouse décor style has seen a resurgence in recent years. Visions of loungey and lofty spaces with pitched roofs, reclaimed beams, deep cozy sofas, and small antique pieces are enough to make each of us want to buy a cabin in the woods and retreat from city life forever.

Maybe it’s the Nancy Meyers movie frenzy that has given us a permanent craving for perfectly accessorized neutral spaces with loads of dimmed lighting and chunky knitted throws. Maybe it’s simply that in the hectic world we live in, we need a space to escape (metaphorically, at least).

But how do you achieve that perfectly curated modern farmhouse look at home? Where do you start to feel like you’re coming home to a Nancy Meyers movie set every night? To give you a kick-start, we handpicked our favorite textural neutral décor accents to help you achieve the modern farmhouse décor look. Get ready to start sipping tea on weekends while lounging in your camel cashmere pajamas. This is exactly how to get the modern farmhouse look. Continue reading >>

THREE TIPS FOR STYLING AN ENTRYWAY

via A Beautiful Mess – We’re still hard at work on our studio house—one mini space at a time. This week we completed two small spaces (double yay!), and today we’re teaming up with Martha Stewart Living at The Home Depot to share a few tips for styling an entry space.

But first, I must confess. I’m the worst at mini spaces. You know the ones. Too small to be a room, but still in need of decor and organization. I put them off and eventually get used to their half-finished status. They’re my blind spot.

But not this time! This time things are different. And you know what? I’m loving it. Our new entry space is inviting and organized. Since it’s the first thing we see when we walk through those doors every morning, I think of this space as our friendliest spot in the house, always waving “hell-oo-ooo!”
