In our master bathroom, I’ve been working hard to create an organized, calm, beautiful atmosphere.

You know when you go to a gorgeous hotel and the bathroom has spa-like presence about it? Yeah, that’s what I want!

I added this above on of the doors…

Pretty huh? Ah, I love it. Sometimes you just need to relax, refresh and renew, and soak your cares away.

and if you just ran, you probably should add some epsom salt to that soaking. Just sayin‘.

So my sister, at The Eck Life inspired me to give a tour of my Christmas decor in my house… now this will be a short tour, it is our FIRST Christmas together after all But I think we’ve done a good job decorating…

As you come up to the front door, you’re greeted by a handsome lil’ lion…

The fireplace…

The Christmas Tree…

My Irish Santa Claus from my Sister

The fabulous Baker’s Rack, remember this?…

and a little something to keep the house smelling tasty…

And that’s all for now! Is your house all Christmas-y? What’s your favorite decoration?

So last week I went to a re-sale home decor event here and bought a few things for the house, this beautiful picture for $12.00 and some throw pillows for the couch, whatcha think?…

The before picture… and don’t mind the nerdalert in front of the couch… this was seriously the only picture I found of the “before” of the living room”…

The after so far. I know the picture isn’t centered, I wanted to get it up there just to see what it’d look like and used the nail already there, I promise I’m not crazy I’m thinking some pretty wall sconces on both sides of the picture, whatcha think? Like the pillow too? That was from the sale. Its red and tan, matches our red and tan couches.

I really like the simplistic look. Pottery Barn is seriously my style of choice, I love their expresso  colors and simplistic looks, but since Pottery Barn is insanely overpriced more than than I want to spend.. I’m seeing a Hobby Lobby trip in my near future…

Since Feburary when we got married, this is all the front yard decor I’ve purchased… and *gulp* I don’t have any flowers planted either… I’m working on acquiring a green thumb! I hope to be as awesome as my Sister one day

But for now, having some darling front yard decor, works for me!
