The Best Neutral Knobby and Textured Home Decor

Stylish and beautiful!  The best knobby decor to add style and texture to your home! 

Do you love color or do you prefer to keep your home decor neutral? 

I tend to gravitate towards black (ahem, Iron Ore) and white and prefer to keep my home decor neutral, but that doesn't mean it has to be boring.  Mixing vintage and modern decor and adding contrast and texture are my favorite ways to add style and dimension to my otherwise neutral home. 

Furniture Makeover: Snow White MCM Dresser

A dated and damaged mid-century modern dresser gets a fresh update with new paint and hardware! 

I haven't been blogging much, but I have been cranking out some furniture makeovers. 

Recently, I picked up a little three drawer mid-century modern dresser from one of my favorite used furniture sources, Facebook Marketplace.  

I loved the style and fluted drawer, but it definitely needed some work.  It was missing hardware, had some damage and a bit of loose and missing veneer.  It was nothing that couldn't be fixed though, so I headed out to pick up the dresser and got started working on it right away. 

Creating Beautiful Vintage Displays and Vignettes

Styling vintage decor to create beautiful vignettes and displays! 

Happy Friday!

Sorry for the unexpected radio silence.  If you've been reading my blog for a while or follow me on Instagram then you probably already know that in addition to blogging, I also have a booth at a local vintage barn.  

Picking, hunting, styling, staging and having a successful vintage booth started out as a side hustle, but has quickly become a full-time gig and true passion of mine.  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE blogging and decorating and won't be giving that up any time soon.  I've just been spending the majority of my time and energy on growing my vintage business.  

With that being said, I thought I would share some recent vintage finds, booth photos and a few of my favorite ways to style vintage decor to create beautiful displays and vignettes.

Dated Dresser Turned Vintage Boho Inspired Chest

Hey, hey!  I'm back with another simple and affordable dresser makeover.   If you follow me on Instagram then you may have already seen the transformation of this dated dresser turned fun vintage boho chest.

I'm much more active and on top of things on Instagram, but it's definitely been a while since I've blogged.  That's only because I've been so busy and consumed with my vintage booth.  Just like blogging, I love every aspect of hunting, picking, styling and curating my booth, so I'm definitely NOT complaining.  

Having the booth allows me to do what makes my heart happy and blogging allows me to share everything with you.  It's a win-win.

Okay, now back to today's furniture makeover and super affordable Facebook Marketplace find. 

A lot of people tend to look over dated dressers with curvy bases, but they are actually incredibly easy to update.  With just a little effort and DIY skills, you can easily turn an old and dated dresser into something you're proud to have in your home.

How to Get The Perfect Raw Wood Finish

Get the perfect raw wood finish and seal and protect your furniture WITHOUT darkening the beautiful and natural color of the wood. 

Are you a natural wood/stained furniture lover or do you prefer the look of painted furniture?

I'm normally a "scuff up furniture and paint" kind of girl, but every now and then I get the itch to refinish or raw wood a piece of furniture.  There's just nothing better than allowing the beautiful natural wood of furniture to shine.  

Recently, I bought this little side table from a local auction (find my favorite used furniture sources HERE) that was screaming for a raw wood makeover.  Granted, it would have been much easier and quicker to slap on a few coats of paint and call it a day, but something about this piece told me the raw wood needed to shine. 

How to Mix Old and New in Your Home Decor

Give your home interest and personality with these simple tips for mixing old and new (vintage and modern) in your home decor! 

How would you describe your decor style is a question I get asked often. 

My usual answer is that I don't stick to one particular decor style and simply buy what I love.  If I had to describe my style I would say it's a little vintage, a little modern, a little industrial and a little farmhouse.  How's that for a style description?  

I have never really believed in the "rule" of sticking to one style and feel the best way to create a home is to fill it with what you love.  You can mix styles and still have a beautiful and cohesive home that fits YOUR unique and individual style.  It's your home and should represent YOU. 

Mixing old and new, vintage and modern is my favorite way to give my home a lived-in feel and create a place I love.  Keeping it neutral allows vintage pieces to shine while also allowing my home to feel cohesive, intentional and a bit more modern.
