Look! There’s a fire in my non-functioning fireplace! 😂 The day I photographed our home for the Seasonal Simplicity Christmas Home tour was so gloomy I decided to take many of the photos with candles lit. Funny how I didn’t even notice the angle created such a fire until I pulled the photo here to share!

Swipe to see there really isn’t a fire at all, just an oversized holiday candle I picked up at Home Goods that I am mildly obsessed with. Wish I could share it with you all.

Don’t miss out on seeing the rest of our Snowy Silver Christmas decor on the blog! Link in the bio.

One of my favorite blog posts to write and share each year is the Seasonal Simplicity Christmas Home Tour. Call me nostalgic, but there is nothing better than scrolling through photos of a home in one sitting without music and video. You are invited to the blog for this, the first installment, of our home decorated for Christmas. (I had so many photos to share the post was getting quite long. The second part of the home tour will be published over the weekend.)

Head on over to DeeplySouthernHome.com and take a tour. (Link in Bio) Get comfortable with your favorite mug of goodness and visit 14 other blogger homes as well. Each home is decorated with care and their unique style.

This year’s scheme was inspired by our new 9 ft Queen Flocked tree by @KingofChristmas. We could not love it more! It is full, and lush and easy to decorate.

Little by little our home is being filled with the Christmas cheer. I'll be sharing a full home tour on the blog next Wednesday, but for now here's a little sneak peek. I arranged the white mums leftover from our Thanksgiving table arrangements with some red roses and fresh greens from a tree in the front yard. I don't think this arrangement will last until the photo shoot so I thought I'd preserve it now.

Are you finished with your Christmas decor?

Functional decor side note. The wooden box is tucked behind the lamp on this table to hold @readyfreddiedoodle’s “come inside” treats. Stubborn little thing will often stand at the door and stare at you until you offer him a treat.

Thanksgiving tree. I am usually not one to rush into my Christmas decor. I really wanted to try this beautiful brown ribbon on my new @kingofchristmas 9ft Queen flocked tree. I thought why not create a simple Thanksgiving tree to test the look out and still celebrate the holiday.

Let me know what you think in the comments!

The @Oneroomchallenge REVEAL of the Listening Room

The @Oneroomchallenge REVEAL of the Listening Room is here. This transformation is dramatic, moody and is a room custom made for my audiophile friends and clients.

I’ll be sharing plenty more in the days to come, but be sure to visit the blog for all the sources and close ups!! Link in bio.

Congratulations to the @OneRoomChallenge and our media host, @apartmenttherapy for 10 years of amazing room makeovers!! Congratulations also all of the Fall 22 participants! We made it happen!

A huge THANK YOU to all of my generous sponsors. Your commitment to this makeover and this event makes rooms even more amazing!

The most beautiful flocked Christmas tree from @ki

The most beautiful flocked Christmas tree from @kingofchristmas arrived recently and I couldn’t wait to put up!

We got the 9ft Queen of Christmas flocked tree with 1100 warm white lights. It’s so pretty it really doesn’t even need decoration! (But you know I will decorate it, probably next week!) Give me a follow to see!

I’ve dreamed of having a flocked tree for many years. Growing up, my mom would have our tree flocked by the local florist and it was always so magical and different. (None of my friends had flocked trees in their living rooms.)

Thank you @kingofchristmas for making my childhood memories come to life.

Paint changes everything! Now that the room has been dipped in this lovely chocolate brown color (Sealskin by Sherwin Williams) we can start styling with furniture, accessories and all of the audio equipment. But first, we wallpaper.

Check out this week’s @oneroomchallenge blog post for an update and the list of projects left before the big reveal next week!!

Moody weekend vibes. The real luxury of this room

Moody weekend vibes. The real luxury of this room is that it feels like an exquisite cocoon. A beautiful sanctuary to arise from feeling refreshed. Absolutely no regrets going dark and moody in our bedroom.

The newest release from @loloirugs and @amberinter

The newest release from @loloirugs and @amberinteriors is here and each rug is as fabulous as the next! I had such a hard time choosing just one, but the Alie in Taupe and Dove (ALE-03) was the perfect choice for our open concept living and dining room this season. The soft pile is silky smooth and the ends are set with a lovely short fringe, two of my favorite qualities in a rug. (Swipe to see more.) [ad]⁠
⁠
And what can be better for a new look in your room than coordinating pillows? I selected the Dalia and the Vivienne pillows to add texture and warmth for the seasons ahead. ⁠
⁠
I'll be sharing more on Stories today ! You can shop the rug here. https://rstyle.me/+tXN_fp7sNXEtpedyYC7x3Q⁠

The entire collection of gorgeous, textural pillows can be found here. https://rstyle.me/+6YSY7Kz6aC7p97s4hv-ftQ⁠

Fall in the kitchen. Dried flowers, apples, vintage art and vessels. Just a few of my favorites gathered together for that fall feeling.

From vision to reality. The 3rd Week of the One Room Challenge is behind us and construction is finished. It's so good to see the vision is taking shape. ⁠
⁠
In this week's blog post, I share about the thought that went into the built in wall and how if functions. The design involved much more than just random boxes and doors. Details matter in any project, but building to suit the needs of an audiophile is completely different animal. ⁠

Balancing the cooler tones in the living room with warm blush and deep maroon sets the mood for fall. I can’t recall a time I used so many pumpkins, but I kind of love it.

Pumpkins to the brim. I often purposely omit pumpkins from my fall decor. Clearly, by this first look at fall here, it’s not that I don’t appreciate a good pumpkin look. In recent years, I have challenged myself to bring the season of fall into my home without them.

What do you think? Do you bring in all the pumpkins every year or do you like to switch it up?

I hope to share more of our fall home soon. It’s taking a good bit longer than usual to pull it all together.

What could be more relaxing than watching your favorite shows from the bathtub? But the problem is how to keep your iPad or tablet safe. So, I designed and built a bathtub tray that holds the tablet securely and won't slip or move if bumped. Now, ALL of my bathroom dreams have come true!

A full, step-by-step tutorial is on the blog at deeplysouthernhome.com. Link in the bio.

Two new additions to our primary bathroom that I just LOVE! ⁠
⁠
I designed and built a simple, beautiful and super safe holder for my iPad because I really enjoy watching design, cooking or gardening shows while in the tub!!⁠
⁠
So much thought and care went into this little project. I wanted to be absolutely certain my iPad would be safe. I also wanted it to look simple with a furniture like quality to suit the room. ⁠
⁠
AND that tree!! This Ficus Nitida was very happy for quite some time. I got her back in July and she's grown taller already. ⁠
⁠
Link in the bio for more and a full tutorial of how I designed and built this bathtub tray. ⁠

AD: Let's revive a wooden beverage cart with BEHR

AD: Let's revive a wooden beverage cart with BEHR PREMIUM™ Gloss Spray Paint in Toasty Gray. 1. After thoroughly cleaning, sand the damaged wood until smooth. 2. Choose your color. I selected the color Toasty Gray to blend with the other neutrals of my patio. 3. Since the wood was previously bare, a light sanding after the first coat ensures a smooth finish. No need for a second product; it contains both paint and primer! 4. Apply a second coat in sweeping motions, avoiding overlap. 5. Admire the beautiful finish and enjoy your refreshed piece. Who's ready for an end-of-summer fiesta? #BEHR #BEHRSPRAYITYOURWAY @behrpaint #TodayLetsPaint https://lnk2.io/w8bvswd⁠

Looking back at last fall. I love looking back before I look forward when it comes to my seasonally touches. My goal is to evoke a feeling of the season while trying to show restraint.
