Friday Five | 12.5.14

Is it just me or has this week flown by!? I’m still getting caught up! Here’s a few of my favorites from the week!

Please pin from original source provided below the photo, thanks! 

Looking for kitchen appliances, but want something other than stainless steel? Emily Henderson recently installed these white appliances in her home!

I met Jen from With Heart in NYC at the BHG Stylemaker challenge, not only is she super sweet, she is SUPER talented! You will love this pillow trick, SO easy!! 
with heart 
Stenciling is affordable, looks amazing, but it is time consuming! Using a simple, large scale pattern is the perfect way to speed it up! I’m loving this tutorial from A Beautiful Mess!

If you haven’t seen A Storied Style and I Heart Organizing’s office / guest room revamp, you MUST check it out. Seriously amazing!! The rug, molding, hanging chair, roman shade, tassels!! (and that’s just this side of the room!!)

    First – I was SO happy to see the Emily Henderson used white appliances… I have never gotten on board with stainless steel! I have a combo of stainless steel and black appliances in my rental kitchen, and the stainless is okay but the black is IMPOSSIBLE to keep clean. I love white appliances… I feel like they are easier to keep clean and go with anything, while the stainless can really make a kitchen cold.
    Second – I love that you recommended the herringbone jute rug from West Elm:) I bought that rug several months ago for that price – and my only warning for anyone considering it is to DEFINITELY scotch-guard the rug before you put it down. I didn't think about doing that and it is showing a significant amount of dirt and wear about only about three months. Now, I have a big furry dog and we aren't always great about keeping our shoes off, which doesn't help. But that lovely soft white part of the rug shows everything. I plan on getting it cleaned soon and then scotch-guarding, which I hope will make a difference in the wear:)

    I love these posts! The link for the instagram heart collage seems to be broken – do you have the source? I'm thinking this would be a great gift for my sister in law for Christmas!

    I'm so glad you included that giant stencil by A Beautiful Mess. I saw it pinned last week but it was a bad link and I just couldn't figure it out. Lovely collection of everything!
