Guys. First thing: HOLY COW as of today I've been blogging for TEN YEARS. Ten. A damn decade. What? I haven't done anything for a decade straight. If you want to go back to the early days and have a good laugh, feel free. It's pretty hilarious to see how different blogging was a decade ago!
Second thing: to celebrate I'm doing some giveaways with brands that I thing are rad and the first one is a $100 gift certificate to The Jungalow! I'm constantly inspired by Justina Blakeney's lush aesthetic, so I wanted to give one lucky reader the chance to grab something gorgeous from her shop! Click the button below to go enter!
My space probably hasn't reached the level of Jungalow status yet, but I'm getting there! I recently re-did my living room layout and it feels SO good. I feel like there's some unspoken rule about not doing diagonal layouts in rooms, but rules are meant to be broken, and for our space, this is actually the most practical layout, so much so that I can't believe I haven't arranged our furniture like this before in the 5 years we've lived here! This space finally feels complete and I'm so in love with everything! Everything except the rug (from Wayfair) and the couch (Ikea) is thrifted or craigslisted!
