Are you into documentaries? I totally am. Any time Netflix, HBO, or Hulu release a new one, I watch it pretty much immediately. Usually the subject matter doesn’t really matter — I love them all. But lately, I’ve been watching a lot of documentaries that have inspired my zero waste journey. In anticipation of the weekend, here are a few of my favorite documentaries about sustainability to inspire you, too!

Neutral Patterned Rugs for Anywhere in Your Home

August 7, 2019August 6, 2019By JoannaPosted in home decor + interiors

After sharing last week’s rug round up with options similar to our bedroom rug, several of you asked for another post… all about neutral patterned rugs! Naturally, I am more than happy to oblige because rugs are totally my jam. Turkish, Persian, Oushak, shag, flat weaves… I love them all. The good thing about selecting a rug in a neutral color palette is that it can literally go anywhere. I envision most of these being perfect for any space, tbh. Let’s dig in!

Any time I style a home, house plants are an absolute essential. Not only do they purify the air, but they also add beautiful texture and a bit of life to any space — even a low light room. I also love to mix in a few colorful house plants to break up the sea of green. I’ve got loads of personal favorites, but I managed to narrow the list down to these 6 must-have colorful house plants!

As I hinted at last week on Instagram, I’ve made a few changes to my studio space. Specifically, I added a lounge area so that I could sit, daydream, get inspired, have meetings, and (most importantly) nap. With all of the kerfuffle of life that’s been happening for us (kitchen, wedding, etc), the studio was sort of a mess. With the help of CORT Furniture Outlet, I recently gave it a quick refresh, so I wanted to share 3 easy ways to update your studio office!

The Friday Edit

August 2, 2019August 1, 2019By JoannaPosted in the friday edit

Happy Friday! This week has been long and weird (that’s what she said?). I started off the week chipping one of my small, lower front teeth. I wasn’t doing anything out of the ordinary — just eating an egg! So I’m waiting for my dentist appointment to fix that. Thankfully, it isn’t painful. Just more of an annoyance and one more thing I need to deal with before the wedding. Then, in case you missed my Instagram post, my favorite chicken unexpectedly died. That was really, really sad for me. It’s the first time one of our girls passed and it was really a shock. Aside from those 2 big things, I’ve just been totally overwhelmed by getting everything ready for the wedding, running my business, and trying to sleep. Do I sound like I’m over it? I kind of am…

Enough of my venting. Let’s get into our favorite reads of the week.
