MOTHER-OF-PEARL GLOBE LAMP

I used this in my own bedroom, which has a soft coastal feel with a touch of elegance. The mother of pearl base brings just the right amount of shimmer, and the simple drum shade keeps it classic. It’s a beautiful accent that adds warmth, style, and a bit of coastal sophistication to any space.

ARMACOST LIGHTING LED STRIP LIGHT SOFT WHITE 2700K

(1 of 3 items needed for hidden strip lighting)

Hidden Bookshelf Lighting – Armacost LED Setup
We used these three items to create the soft, dimmable lighting inside our built-in bookcase—and it turned out beautifully. The warm 2700K LED strip gives off the perfect glow, and it’s fully dimmable through the Kasa app (which we already used for other smart features in our home).

KASA SMART PLUG SET

These are the bomb. I use them on table lamps, our bookcase LED strip lighting, the mantle light—and even for our Christmas tree and holiday accessory lights. They act as smart timers you can fully schedule from your phone, turning lights on and off exactly when you want. It’s such a simple way to create ambiance year-round and make holiday lighting effortless. Once you start using these, you’ll want one in every room!

HANDWOVEN NATURAL JUTE RUG

This jute rug adds the perfect layer of texture to any space - living room, entryway, or even under a bed. It’s handwoven, affordable, and works beautifully on its own or as a base layer beneath a patterned rug. I love using it to add warmth without overpowering the room.

PRISMATIC GLASS WATER GLOBE

I own three of these and love how they keep my indoor and outdoor plants perfectly watered -  no more guessing when it’s time to water. When one runs dry, I just refill. The prismatic glass is elegant and affordable, making it a beautiful and practical solution for plant care.

ACRYLIC RECTANGULAR COFFEE TABLE

I used this in my teen daughter’s room to keep the space feeling light and airy. The clear acrylic doesn’t visually crowd the room, but still gives her a place to style books and a candle. It's a great piece for small rooms or any space where you want function without heaviness.

GRAY OAK BARN WOOD FRAME - MULTIPLE SIZES AVAILABLE (SHOWN 19 X 19)

I used the 19x19 version of this frame for one of my favorite black-and-white pieces, but it comes in a wide range of sizes. The gray-washed oak finish adds a subtle rustic charm that works beautifully with both modern and traditional styles. It’s perfect for charcoal sketches, family photos, or layering into gallery walls.

AMEROCK 1-3/4" KNOB - GOLDEN CHAMPAGNE

Classic, timeless, and elevated - this knob is one of my go-to picks for bathroom vanities, linen cabinets, or built-ins. The golden champagne finish feels warm and neutral, and it comes in other finishes if you prefer silver or matte black. Big style in a small detail.

RETROSPEC 1" THICK YOGA MAT- IN ROSE & SAGE

I use this mat almost every day  from strength training to stretching to floor work. The 1-inch padding is so comfortable on my knees and joints, and the rose and sage colors are a subtle upgrade from your typical gym mat. It’s lightweight, durable, and rolls up neatly when not in use.

This one’s just fun to use! Totally invisible, no white cast, and it glides on like a primer. It wears beautifully under makeup and gives your skin a smooth, almost velvety finish. I like to mix in 2 drops of the Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow for an extra boost of moisture and radiance—it’s the perfect combo for dry skin. Bonus: it’s loaded with skincare ingredients that go beyond sun protection.

LANEIGE LIP GLOWY BALM

This is hands down my favorite lip balm. Moisturizing, glossy, and just the right amount of shine -  it keeps lips soft and beautiful all day. I keep one in my purse, my nightstand, and my car. Because let’s be honest -  we deserve to feel just as polished and comfortable as the homes we’re creating.

This was recommended by my hormone physician to support better sleep. I won’t lie—I don’t take it alone. I pair it with my bioidentical progesterone, and together they help me sleep like a baby.

ORLANE EXTREME LIP LINE REDUCTION

I've used this lip treatment for nearly a decade after noticing fine lines forming around my lips. It's definitely a splurge, but one bottle lasts me almost a year. And honestly? Those lines never got any worse. It’s one of those little luxuries that actually works and is 100% worth it to me.
