Inspirational Monday: Home Decor

My husband and I just moved into our new apartment. No really, today was move in day. We've lived in Carroll Gardens for the past 6 years and today we moved into Bay Ridge. It is a bittersweet day. Carroll Gardens had become our home. We made friends in the neighborhood and had found our favorite local hubs. But within the 6 years of living there we've out grown our one bedroom apartment and the neighborhood had outgrown our budget. Bay Ridge is just as homey, if not more neighborhoody, without the sticker shock price tag on apartments. We found ourselves a beautiful two bedroom apartment that had everything we were looking for, a big living room, kitchen with washer/dryer and dishwasher. A huge plus, the deck. This was the apartment we saw ourselves growing into. With a new apartment means new furniture and new decor. I'm all about the grays and whites. As well as the glam boho feel. Once the husband and I have the place decorated and set up I will do a home tour. As for now enjoy my mood board of home ideas.

Home Decor Inspiration with Fab.com

A couple of weeks ago I had a chance to attend Fab.com's first ever press preview. I've attended a lot of press previews but I must say this was one of the most unique I have ever attended. They hosted the event at someone's actual Greenwich Village apartment! It was really cool to see Fab.com products staged in a actual home. The whole presentation was home decor inspiration overload...and exactly what I needed as my husband and I start to redecorate our own apartment.

Besides the apartment itself being my New York City dream apartment, each room I went into I found something from Fab.com that I wanted...or an idea I wanted to steal for my own apartment. I loved the bar set up at the presentation, which gave me a lot of ideas on design for our own barcart. I'm in between this Copper Cocktail Shaker and this Mason Jar Cocktail Shaker Set. I've also recently become obsessed with Moscow Mule Cups, it's a must have for my bar cart. What I really loved were the display of the necklaces on the wooden and marble trays on the wood table. Not only did I love the way it looked but I loved the necklaces themselves (here, here, here and here)...and of course the marble trays. All are on my wishlist.

How would you redecorate your space?

DIY: Fall Mason Jar Decorations

photo FallDecor_zpsb7994372.png

My husband and I have a lot of extra vintage mason jars saved in a bin from our wedding. After viewing some fall decorations on Pinterest I thought it would be nice putting some of the mason jars to use, as well as make our apt more fall like. A lot of the DIY projects included modge podging leaves to mason jars which look quite beautiful but I knew I didn't want to ruin my mason jars. So I took a easier route and filled up some jars with scented pine cones and some with fake leaves from Michael's. Simple but effective.

What You'll Need:
- Fake pine cones or acorns
- Fake fall leaves and flowers
- Mason Jars

All you need to do is line the jars you want with leaves. You don't need glue or modge podge to hold them in place. The leaves will be fine folded into the jar. You can place fake tea light candles in them to hold the leaves in place.

These decorations are not only perfect for making your home feel more like fall but also would be perfect center pieces for your Thanksgiving (or Friendsgiving) dinner.

Would you give making these a try?
