For some time I have been looking for the perfect piece of art to display above my all white brick fireplace. Since I have yet to find some time to paint something or look for a worth while piece to invest in, I decided to jazz it up with these fun tassel garlands by Pom Flair.

So far I am enjoying the constant party feel in my home.

I love organization solutions that help you get a good feel for your inventory, especially when it comes to shoes. While at Goodwill a few weeks ago, I got the wild idea to turn this ordinary DVD holder stand (purchased for $10) into a pretty yet organized shoe display. I plan to eventually spray paint it but for now it will just do.

Happy Thursday readers! Only one more day till the weekend, how exciting?! I thought I would update you on some new developments around my home. It seemed quite fitting, especially since there has been a lack of home decor posts lately. Enjoy!

So happy to be guest blogging today over at DC Goodwill Fashionista! Head over there and get a sneak peek into my bedroom on a budget. Have a wonderful weekend lovely readers!

I recently discovered this blog and have been hooked ever since. The funny thing is I found this blog through a TJ Maxx commercial they have airing about being a Maxxinista. What really caught my eye about Saucy Glossie was the style of her white crisp bedroom, not to mention countless outfit posts that make me want to buy everything!

Since I have been in the process of buying a bed (which has seemed like forever) and  cannot seem to find my dream bed (last seen here) anywhere, I will have to settle for this lovely white satin headboard by Target. At such an affordable price, it’s hard not to like it.

Have a wonderful weekend readers!

I recently discovered a fun way to display my massive nail polish collection. The lovely ladies at WhoWhatWear added pops of color to their office by placing all their nail polishes in a clear circular glass container. I love the way it looks and can’t wait to give it a go!

I’m big believer in being organized. It saves you time, space, and not to mention sanity when you’re in a rush and need to find something quick. When it comes to jewelry, I have lots of it – I love to accessorize outfits with statement necklaces and earrings. A few weeks back I purchased this cork board (from Home Goods) for my kitchen. I quickly realized that it was too big for the space I had in mind, so I decided to keep it and make my own jewelry organizer by using some thin hanging wire and nails. Now I have a fun way to display all my jewelry and even sunglasses.

{Step 1- Hammer in thin nails one inch a part}

{Step 2- Hammer in 1 nail on each side of board. Then wrap thin wire across board}

{Step 3- Hang jewelry and enjoy display}

Here are a few things around the house that are currently making me happy. Sometimes it’s nice to pause and take a moment to recognize the small things that brighten your day.

Have a wonderful weekend!

A few weeks ago I was invited to preview CB2′s Fall inventory at their Georgetown location. I was so excited to meet other DC bloggers and also have the opportunity to sit in on one of the Apartment Therapy DIY workshops. I love how the Georgetown store is set up, all the vibrant Fall colors and unique displays serve as great inspriation for upcoming design ideas. Enjoy!

This past weekend my cousin surprised me with this lovely Persian Ghelim Rug from Iran. He knew I had been in the market for one so he traveled to the bazaar and bought me the perfect one!  What’s so amazing about this rug is that it contains natural dyes from fruits like pomegranate. I couldn’t be happier with his rug choice, I am in love with the color and it compliments my dining room decor.
