Guest Room Refresh - The Adored Abode

Guest Room Refresh

I shared our guest room plans months ago and truthfully the guest room has now been finished (and photographed) for months, but alas I am just getting around to writing the post. This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. Where the exact item I own is no longer available I have linked a similar option. For more information, see my disclosures here.  It feels so nice to have a much more put together guest room for when we have people…

Loloi Rug Review - The Adored Abode

How It’s Holding Up: Loloi Area Rug Review

This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. For more information, see my disclosures here. This post is not sponsored. All thoughts and opinions are my own. We’ve had our Loloi area rug in our living room for almost 2 and half years now. I thought it would be helpful to write an honest Loloi area rug review post - how it's holding up, including how pet & kid friendly it is and if we'd buy it again. For reference, our rug is the now ever popular…

Guest Room Refresh - The Adored Abode

Guest Room Refresh | Plans

Even though we have had no guests stay with us recently, I want to give our guest room a small refresh for when we do hopefully have people stay with us again in the future! Our guest room currently consists of a bed with very tattered and hole filled bedding, curtains and a few pieces of art! The bones of the room are great and it's already painted so we are off to a great start. We always joke that…

8 Month Nice to Have Baby Items - The Adored Abode

Nice to Have Baby Items | 8 Months

It's hard for me to fathom how I already have an almost 8 month old. The saying that the days are long and the years are short in parenthood is so very true. Leo is such a happy, busy little guy. We love him to pieces. At every age I have said "this is my favorite stage" and then each month I keep saying it again because it's amazing to watch him grow and learn! The 6-8 month range has…

Mother's Day - The Adored Abode

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas – For All Moms

Mother's Day has been a day of both happiness celebrating the many women I love in my life, most importantly my own mom, and also great sadness thinking of the 3 babies we lost before Leo was born. I am grateful beyond words to have my little guy this Mother's Day, but not a day goes by that I don't think of those 3 babies. It's impossible to not wonder what their little personalities would have been like - how…

Main Closet Before & Plans - The Adored Abode

Main Closet – Renovation Progress

I first posted about our main closet renovation plans in early November last year and I said we would be doing it in phases. Well, I was certainly right about that. We started the closet late last year, yay! And we installed about 1/2 of the IKEA PAX units that we plan to use, which got our closet to a functional point, now we can actually hang out clothes up again. Then all progress stopped and we've just lived with…

Faux Garland DIY - The Adored Abode

How to Make a Faux Garland Look Realistic

One of my favorite decorations for the holidays is a pretty garland! However, they can be very pricey. I was determined to use inexpensive faux garland and try to make it look a bit more realistic! I'm happy to say that I think I succeeded. Nothing beats real greenery in my opinion, but having a garland that doesn't shed is a bonus so I am alright with going the faux route for this.

Neutral Nursery - The Adored Abode

The Nursery Reveal

The nursery is complete and I could not be happier. It's hard for me to wrap my mind around the fact that we have a nursery in our house and we are going to be welcoming a baby in a matter of days. I have always imagined a serene and calming nursery with muted colors and after a rough journey to this baby I knew a serene and calming nursery is exactly what we needed. As a reminder, this was…

Main Bathroom Reveal - The Adored Abode

Favorite Shops on Etsy for Printable Art

I love buying original art pieces when I can, but they are often an investment, though very worthwhile when you find art that you love and means something to you. I have been trying to collect more original art pieces over time, but I also love the option of digital art prints. They are an easy and affordable way to change up the decor around your home. I have found a few shops on Etsy that have purchased digital prints…
