sourcing a dining room table + chairs

My friend Jenn asked me for some help in picking out new dining room chairs and table. She doesn't really know what she wants so I casted a wide net and sent her some options that are relatively economical, easy to obtain (Jenn is an instant gratification sort of shopper) and would fit into the current style of her home - which is a combination of preppy and Bohemian with just a little glam. I plan on seeing what she/her husband gravitates towards and refining from there. 

Happy Monday!

cleaning and organization with west elm

As we pack up our current house in preparation of our move, I am already dreaming of things cleaned, neatly organized and put away in their newly designated spaces. And while I know this will take some time (every space/surface still needs to be cleaned and repainted), I like to think that even a storage closet can be a beautiful space and that a trash can does not need to be made of cheaper plastic but instead can be an artfully designed object. West Elm has some great pieces for cleaning/organization that follow this line of thinking - below are a few of my favorites.
