Decor & Decorating

Sometimes we need inspiration — or just escapism. Whatever you need these images are drool-worthy and these decorating tips are just what you need. Dive in!

Monday Moment: punk rock walls surround this makeshift dining room

Thanks to Tina for uploading her favorite moment in her home — her dining room. Yes, that table and vinyl chairs are amazeballs, but it’s what’s on the walls around ’em that really make this moment kick ass and take names.

Your Gorgeous Wall O’ Goals

Making The Lists and Accomplishing All The Things are practically my favorite hobbies. 

Of course, I have a never-ending, constantly-evolving list of yearly goals, but since it’s a piece of notebook paper taped to the wall, it’s less than inspiring.  And while I know the rest of the Internet loves nothing so much as aspirational Pinterest accounts and vision boards, that stuff just isn’t quite my style. 

Enter: Wall O’ Goals. 

This handcrafted heirloom Star Wars bassinet is perfect for your snoozing Padawan

Rebel Belle Wedding clients Dorian and Lynn are super deluxe Star Wars fans — the pair had a dinosaur/Star Wars-themed wedding that featured a real-life Millennium Falcon cake. Now they’re at it again, and this time they’ve got a baby on the way.

Puerto Rico’s unobtainable bathtubs

Last month I took a press trip to Puerto Rico to tour destination wedding and honeymoon venues (full Offbeat Bride post coming in a couple days!). It was a lovely trip, but I was keenly aware that many of the venues we were touring were TOTALLY out of range for 99% of my readership. We’re talking $3000/night hotel rooms, $15,000 ballrooms, etc.

Rather than get frustrated, I decided I would start taking photos of some of these lovely venues’ beautiful bathtubs so that we could all admire and be inspired. Most of these tubs are not in places most of us can afford, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t amazing!

Monday Moment: fashion and art collide in a hair salon

I love this moment set up in the entrance to Sirens Salon in Los Angeles (the place were I get my hairs did).

Blank canvas = cheap custom home decor

Dreaming of a fabulous custom home decor, but don’t really have the funds? For the price of a roll of canvas fabric and paint supplies you could have your own custom headboard and curtains… in ANY sizes you want.

Let’s dream about sleeping porches

The last time I was over at my mom’s property, she was mentioning all the different places on her property where her and her partner like to sleep. They’ve set up beds on just about every deck, porch, and patio surface they could find. Now that it’s finally summer, I say ‘TIS THE SEASON for this kind of sleeping around. So let’s dream about some sleeping porches — and even one sleeping balcony, for those of us in the city.

Bright pillows, peacocks, and playtime on this very summer deck

I know it’s the Fourth of July for our US Homies, and a lot of y’all are outside — grilling things, drinking drinks, and exploding stuff. So in honor of this most summer-y of days, I bring you allaboutevelyn‘s very summery deck decor, with pillows, peacocks, and playtime.
