9 Items for A Spring Home Refresh

9 Items for A Spring Home Refresh

 

Hello Pretty Ladies, 

I hope your week is going well. Happy March! We celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary over the weekend and have been trying to get into the swing of a new week. It’s been a harsh winter in Utah this year, and with Valentine’s over, I added some simple Spring touches to our home this week and shared over on the gram. You all loved it so much that I thought I would recap nine simple and affordable little touches you could add to your home for a spring feel.

9 Items for A Spring Home Refresh from my home tour🌿

Affordable and simple items to refresh little areas of your home! 9 things you can add to give your home a little refresh for Spring and add to the sense of sight & smell.

Adding Spring to the Kitchen area

If you’re like me, we’re primarily in our kitchens, and I like to start adding in the season here. You can make simple and affordable little changes that have a significant impact. I want to create tiny little vignettes for the seasons. For example, I start at my sink area and purchase new countertop cleaner, dish soap, and hand soap in a fresh scent of the season, add a new scrubber and a little silk pot of flowers, and a scented candle.  

The cleaners and soaps are $3.99-$2.99, adding such a spring impact for so little money. The stand you can use every season for under $20, and a new little wooden scrubber is $6; I think it’s a cute little detail. A little silk flower pot is $6-9.00, and you can find spring candles for $10. This Fresh linen and Sea salt candle smells so good. Fresh and clean for Spring.

Spring Touches with color in mind

Add these cute striped ruffle dish towels, a Jute rug, Spring 40 oz Candle & candles, little birds, and silk flowers. To your space, please give it a fresh look and light up your room for Spring. Think lighter colors and colors of Spring that will work in your area. I choose yellow, green, white, and the natural color of jute. 

 

Fresh flowers bring the outdoors in

I love fresh flowers too. Something about fresh flowers that make your home feel like you’re bringing the outdoors in: if you have been following me for a while, you know a bouquet of fresh flowers is something I treat myself to every week. I love trader joe’s, Costco flowers, and our local flower shops.

Changing out your Rugs

Changing out your rugs can make a significant impact on your space. Removing heavier fabrics and replacing them with lighter, airier ones, like jute, give your room a softer feel. Rugs can range in price, and you can find reasonable ones at places like Target and home goods. But I love Boutique rugs, and they are always having a sale. This darling jute circle rug comes in several sizes. I chose the smaller size as I knew it would fit perfectly in front of my sink and fridge. The circle is a fun change instead of the usual rectangle shape. (I got the large round for my entryway. )

Spring Center Piece for your Kitchen Island

Spring centerpieces can be easy to create, from a bowl with fresh lemons and limes to a simple flower centerpiece. You can get creative and use a dough bowl to add a bird’s nest and birds or bunnies. Of course, spring candles and fresh flowers are always a favorite. I will share several more ways in feature posts and stories on the gram, so tune in over there.

 

An excellent coffee table decor book

The Cozy White Cottage Seasons coffee table decor book is one of my favorite home inspiration books, and this one has 100 ways to be cozy all year.

5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and there is something so fun about celebrating the friendships in your life by having a Galentine’s party. So today I am sharing 5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines Party. With items to decorate from Walmart that are so festive and affordable. Along with a couple of outfits, ideas I think you’ll love.

 

What is Galentine’s Day

Galentine’s Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated on February 13th. The holiday was made popular by the TV series Parks and Recreation and celebrated female friendships and relationships, especially if you don’t have a significant other. Galentine’s Day involves women honoring the important ladies in their lives through gift exchanges, dinners, gatherings, spa days, and more. It’s a great time to show appreciation for the strong bonds between women!

 

5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines

 

 5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines:

1. Set the Scene: Decorations, snacks, and atmosphere are essential (see my picks above)

2. Pick Your Guests: Invite your best gals for a night of laughter, stories, and fun.

3. Plan an Activity: Whether you watch a movie together or play a game, choose something everyone will enjoy!

4. Honor Each Other: Give thoughtful cards or gifts to show each other how much they mean to you.

5. Serve food & drinks: Serve decadent treats like chocolate-dipped strawberries or heart-shaped cookies. Or Wow them with a chocolate fondu Charcutier board! Easy to put together and looks so festive. Really Celebrate your friendship over a delicious meal!

New Year’s Target Home Refresh

New Year's Target Home Refresh

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Christmas has been taken down, and the house feels a little empty. I love doing a little home refresh in January. How about you? Adding just a few pieces to your home decor can give a minor update. I found a few pieces at Target to freshen up your home, whether you’re looking for a small amount of furniture, a new lamp, or a great coffee table book to inspire you. Target has some great affordable pieces.

I love changing up my dish towels and refreshing the pillows. It’s a great affordable way to give a little update/refresh to your home. Adding a new piece of art or a mirror can give your room a new look, while a new little accent piece, like a chair or a small dresser, can change the room’s look. 

Here are my picks from Target:

Upholstered Natural Wood Accent Chair – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

 

16″ Faux Olive Leaf Potted Plant – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

 

3-Drawer Wood Dresser – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

 

Assembled Resin Table Lamp Tan – Threshold™ designed with Studio McGee.

7 Ways To Get Your Home Sell-Ready

7 Ways To Get Your Home Sell-Ready

7 Ways To Get Your Home Sell-Ready

Hello Pretty Ladies, I have shared with you that we are getting ready to list our home and researching ways to make the processes easier and faster. Here are “7 Ways To Get Your Home Sell-Ready” Put on your seatbelts – we are going on a crazy ride! Selling your home right now is a great idea financially, but it can also be very overwhelming to do. You might be wondering, “where do I even start?” I’m here to help! Here are a few ways to get your home sell-ready:

7 Ways To Get Your Home Sell-Ready

Fix any issues

First up: fix any issues before you consider listing them. You could tackle this two ways: only fix the issues that are very apparent (like holes in the walls) so that prospective buyers are more attracted to the home and make a better offer. Or fix as many issues (seen and unseen) that you know of to have a better inspection report come back. I prefer only to tackle sight seen issues because once you get the inspection report back, they will make repair requests…and even if you fix a lot beforehand, you WILL have things that pop up on your inspection, so you might as well fix only what you have to unless there is an actual serious issue that could deter buyers.

 

Meet with your agent and figure out a price

Once you prepare your home, your next step is to meet up with your agent (if you are using one!) to figure out a price. Right now, prices are wild, and it can be tough to know what price you should list your home at, so I recommend trusting a real estate agent that knows what they are doing. Of course, you want the most bang for your buck, and pricing it yourself could land you a bad deal. However, at the end of the day, any deal that YOU think works for you is a good deal.

7 Ways To Get Your Home Sell-Ready

Get everything deep cleaned.

Right before your listing goes on the market, you will want to declutter, de-personalize, and get your home deep cleaned so that it shines and looks its best! Of course, if you don’t have the time for this or want it in tip-top shape, you could always hire this out. Professional cleaners have the potential to do WONDERS when it comes to making your home look (and smell) great! This is definitely a must before letting people into your home when they are making a potentially life-changing offer.

 

Post your home on Facebook

When everything is live, go ahead and post your listing on Facebook. You could even post before your home goes live to gain traction and potentially get an off-market deal. However, doing this runs the risk of you getting less money overall because when it is on the market right now, you will (without fail!) have a bidding war, which will up the total price you get for the sale of your home. Nevertheless, posting on Facebook is always a great thing to quickly get people in the door!

 

Negotiate once you have a potential buyer

Once you have found a buyer, it’s time for negotiations! Everything can be negotiated, so don’t leave anything on the table. At the end of the day, it’s a seller’s market, and you have the option to get back-up offers, just in case something falls through. During negotiations, be kind, but make sure you are not bending to make an unreasonable request. This is the hardest part. You’ve got this!

 

Find a new home

Once you get through the hardest part, it’s not time for the fun! Finding a home of your own! Make your list of what you need and what you want, then set up an official home search. To make a competitive offer in this market, talk with your agent. With a lot of homes, they are moving quickly, and they are only willing to accept the best offer with a clean contract. Keep that in mind when house hunting, but make sure you don’t settle for something less than great!

 

Move!

Last but not least, the final step in this entire process is moving! This can be overwhelming and stressful, and nobody LOVES to do it themselves. To take care of that, hire it out instead. There are great companies out there that can help you with the moving process – like Movin’. They are residential movers and office movers in Salt Lake City, and they go above and beyond to ensure that all of their clients are 100% satisfied. After all, word-of-mouth reviews are their best reference! They say, “Moving is never fun. From the packing to the heavy lifting, it’s a big project that’s tough to handle on your own. So when you need to enlist the help of local movers headquartered in Salt Lake City, UT, Provo-Orem, UT Metropolitan Statistical Area, and surrounding areas, you’ll want to find an experienced and well-equipped company to handle your move. When searching for moving companies near you, look no further than Movin’.”

 

Here are a few things, I have found that help your home smell good, I use them for cleaning and Items I organized to have cupboards and closets looking clean and tidy!

What I’ve Purchased Lately

What I’ve Purchased Lately

 

What I've Purchased Lately

 

Hello pretty Ladies,

Today, I am sharing a few items, “What I’ve purchased lately” Pieces for our home, a couple of Items Cozy items to wear perfect for Spring weather, and a cute Jumpsuit for that upcoming warm-weather vacation. 

I love a little refresh for Spring for our home and my wardrobe. In Utah, it’s still cold until the end of April, and you do need layers, sometimes just light layers. So  I added in a couple of warm and cozy pieces in my favorite neutral shades. I found a cute jumpsuit for Spring break and something I’ll wear all Summer long. I love getting a new pair of house slippers for the season, and I found these cute slippers in white for $12.00. Our home needed a couple of little pieces,s and Spring is the perfect time for a little freshen up. 

  1. Office Lamp= As you know, I moved my home office upstairs, and I have been adding finishing touches to the space. I found this tremendous chic and straightforward lamp that adds the light I need to my desk and the communication of gold and marble base for that stylish feminine touch I am looking for. 
  2. The Perfect Mirror= Something on my Wish list is this Large Anthropology mirror I will get for our new home. Meanwhile, I purchased the small one for my office, and I adore it! Perfect for checking your makeup or those hats I love. 
  3. Candle– Capri Blue Volcano candle is one of my all-time favorite scents. It smells excellent any time of the year. I usually burn them in the Spring and Summer as I like fall and winter scents for those seasons. You will not be disappointed in this long-burning candle. 
  4. Water bottle=The water bottle that keeps you on track hourly. If you had a goal to drink more water this year? This bottle is for you! It fits in your car’s drink holder, is easy to hold, and keeps track of your water hourly. I have loved this water bottle compared to the one I purchased a couple of years ago. 
  5. Turtleneck tunic= A Super soft and lightweight Tunic in Cream and the perfect weight for Spring in Utah. I received one from Avara in Blush in January and loved it so much I purchased it in Cream. 
  6. Jumpsuit= This strapless jumpsuit is flattering and cute for Spring and Summer. I love the crisp white, cropped wide leg and flattering strapless top—a great wide belt to accentuate the waist. 
  7. Slippers= Who doesn’t want new slippers for each season, especially when you can get these cuties for under $12. I purchased it in white.
  8. Cozy Cardigan=, The perfect shade of oatmeal, goes with almost everything and is a much-needed layering piece for Spring. I have worn over my pj’s at home and on travels, thrown on over everyday outfits, and it’s cute over tee shirt dresses and a shirt dress. You’ll love this cozy soft layering piece.
  9. Laundry basket= I finally found a laundry basket that looks beautiful sitting out and has the function I need. You’ll love it too.

How to Create an easy Thanksgiving Dining Tablescape:

I wanted to share our How to Create an easy Thanksgiving Dining Tablescape setting with you. Because it’s not the traditional Fall feel with leaves and pumpkins, I went with a winter white, silver, and gold theme. And it feels elegant and warm. To give it a Thanksgiving feel, I picked up this fun silver pheasant from Target and added antlers and wooden details.

     How to Create an easy Thanksgiving Dining Tablescape: Adding items 

TIP: for adding layers to your Thanksgiving Dining Tablescape, find items around your home that work in your color/theme. Please pay attention to heights; find items from low to high, but not too high that you can’t see around it. I love pieces that are general and don’t scream a certain holiday so that you can use them more often. It helps for easy collecting because of items like glass, mercury glass, and solid colors like gold, silver, white, and red (red works for Christmas, Valentine’s day, and Summer). Pieces that give your table a glow like candles, votives, and candlesticks are great pieces to collect. 

        How to Create an easy Thanksgiving Dining Tablescape: Adding Layers

TIP: I love to share is to layer your tablecloth; this works great if you don’t have the perfect size for your Thanksgiving Dining Tablescape. Here I used a large plain white tablecloth that fits the table and to add a pop of design. I used the gold stripe meant for a smaller table, but you wouldn’t notice it doesn’t fit the table because of the layering. I also like to layer different tablecloths of different sizes if you don’t have one that fits! Just remember they need to be in the same color family for it to work.

Our table is for 8, yet I always buy everything in sets of 12. I do this in case anything breaks, or if I have extra people, we can make a kid table for 4 at our kitchen island. It is also because I am a little bit of a collector….(my boys are going to hate me when I die!)

I love collecting things to entertain and make life beautiful; I can throw any party at a moment’s notice because of the pieces I’ve collected over the years! So If you want to build your entertaining collection, keep following along with me. I plan on sharing more of my entertaining tips and collections with you as I have had so many of you ask for me to share this part of my life. Would you like a list of my basic entertaining starter kit? This would be the must-have items and then be able to build from that. *If so, please leave a comment below.

I love Thanksgiving and spending time with family and friends over good food, and I know you do too! So next time, make it a beautiful experience and share your love over a beautifully designed table; there is no better way to show off the hard work you spent in the kitchen. TIP: You can build your perfect table-scape weeks before to take the pressure off.

Shop some of my favorite Tablescape essentials:

May you have a beautiful Thanksgiving, yummy food, and a great time with your family and friends. We’ll be having a Friendsgiving as all of our family is out of town. Happy Thanksgiving from our home to yours! OX, D’Arcy

 

PS: Are you excited for Black Friday, or do you stay home and put up Christmas? This is my first year not in retail for the Holidays, and I can’t tell you how excited I am! I’ll be staying at home to decorate and enjoy my family. I will be shopping a little online, and I can’t wait to share with you all the deals I found this week for Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday! My DEAL post will go live tonight at MIDNIGHT!

11 Spring Fashion Trends You’ll Love!

One of the things I love about the season change is the NEW trends that can give your wardrobe a little refresh. It doesn’t mean you have to go out and purchases a whole new wardrobe. It means you can add some fun new pieces to what you already own to give the pieces a new FRESH look. Isn’t that one of the things we love about Spring? FRESH

Although several trends are happening this Spring, I picked 11 Spring Fashion Trends you’ll love and be able to easily add into your wardrobe without spending a lot of money. Plus a couple of easy tweaks you can incorporate to be right on-trend.

11 Spring Fashion Trends:

  1. Boho Home Decor
  2. Babydoll Dresses
  3. Shirt Dresses
  4. Western-Inspired
  5. Straight-Leg Jeans
  6. Chunky Gold Links
  7. Pearls
  8. Studded
  9. High waisted Jeans
  10. Middle Part
  11. Crocodile Accessories

#9. Is featured HERE. High-waisted denim with a wide leg and distressed detail. This Maggie Mae jean by Free People is one of my ALL time favorite jeans. I own it in every wash. (size up due to the high waist) Easy to wear and to style.

    This is one piece I would suggest you grab to give your Spring wardrobe a refresh. If white isn’t your thing, You can grab them in Denim and black denim.

#8. Stud details= Featured on the bow sandals is a cute monochromatic stud detail I adore. These popular Valentino sandals are a splurge, which I linked below. I have had a couple of seasons and adore them. I felt they were worth the Splurge, knowing I would wear them for several seasons, and the stud detail is very subtle.

#3. & #4. Killing Two birds with one stone… The shirt dress looks great on every figure. It is easy to style, can also be worn as a duster. I love it hides my tummy (my trouble area). Shop my Hat HERE

This Shirtdress also incorporates trend #4  Western-inspired with western details in the pockets detailing and buttons. The western-inspired is very easy to achieve by adding a cowboy hat, a plaid button-up, or simple western details, as shown above. 

Show the look below:

Here are a couple of subtle & easy Spring trends you can add to your Spring wardrobe…. Chunky Gold Chainlink details (shown on the bag)  Pearls are ALL the rage this Spring (detail on the Sunglasses)  Studded detail shown on the sandal. The Shirt Dress is making a big statement, and this one also incorporates the little western detail on the pockets. Let’s not forget about the middle part,  Have been wearing a Middle part since I grew out my bangs several years ago. But this year, it’s been talked about a ton by the younger generation! they’re saying, ” You show your age with a side part and skinny jeans!” (this is a whole other subject, and I’ll go there another time!) Insert laughter!

Layered over the Shirtdress to show another way to style it is the Eyelet duster. Eyelet fabric is popping up everywhere this Spring, from Swimsuits, dresses, and denim detail.

Although this look has several Spring trends happening at once… It doesn’t scream TRENDY or overdone…. It’s ALL in how you bring the Small details together to pull the overall look off. Allowing you to be on-trend at any age.

I also love these little trendy Spring details; they won’t break the bank and can be added to your own piece. Shop this look HERE

#6. Chunky Gold Links

#7. Pearls

#8. Studded detail

#3 Shirtdress: I layered it with another trend Eyelet, shown here with an eyelet duster (I didn’t list this trend)

#10. Middle part11 Spring Fashion Trends You'll Love

#5 The straight leg jean… Don’t worry; the Skinny jean isn’t gone! It’s just taking a back seat to the Straight leg jean. Here I am wearing the Straight-leg jean in a mid-rise and a frayed cropped hem. I prefer the mid-rise to the high rise, as it hit me better on my body as I don’t have a waist and my trouble area is my middle. In high-rise denim, you’ll need to go up a full size, and it really does shorten my already shorter torso. And let’s Talk REAL…I don’t love what a high rise does to my already flat butt:(!

All my height comes in my legs. I am 5’9 1/2  for reference and wear a size 6 to 8, depending on the jean. In this case, it’s the brand Level 99 denim, and these are a size 28 (let’s face it, my size also depends on my fluctuating weight of 10-15 pounds!) THANKS, Midlife, and menopause!

A couple of reasons it’s great to own a straight leg. They look great with the on-trend clog sandals. As skinny jeans could give you that elf effect 🙂 ( Insert Giggle), They really flatter the leg and add a longer leg appearance. And they look great with tops tucked in to show off your waist! Can I say, “Pull out your BELTS!” 

Shop some of My FAVORITE mid-rise jeans below:

By some of my personal brand favorites. These are brand favorites because they fit so many body types, have great stretch, wear fab. These are some of my go-to jeans for styling clients and what I purchase. Brands like Kut from the Kloth, Not Your Daughters Jeans, Madewell, and Level 99. (some say HIGH rise but trust me, I tried on or own, and they are ALL mid-rise on me)

🍎Which lead to winning my elementary schools pie baking contest when I was in the 2nd grade..🍏Apple pie) with applies from our yard.

📚In the 3rd grade I won a hot air balloon ride for 📚reading the most books in elementary school that year.

🍽️my love of entertaining, started in elementary school, For fun I would plan dinners(my mom and I would shop for them & I would cook for my family as well as set the tables pretty, have ready when my family came home. 

I had a mom who taught and shared her love of hospitality, creativity and “grandma hobbies” way before I could fall in love with Martha Stewart as a young teenager in the 80’s..

Not only did I want 17 magazine & vogue, I wanted Martha steward living, better homes and garden, Ina Gardens cook books, and anything made by Ralph Lauren .

I got my real first job at 15 (so I could buy (RL) at the cutest home decor and interiors shop, owned by the most creative and talented lady (Susie), who gave me my love of wallpaper, and playing with pretty things… I was doing her window displays at both her shops by 16…

Part 2 Summer Time favorite Moment’s… A little Sa Part 2 
Summer Time favorite Moment’s…
A little Saturday Series, I am doing to finish out Summer…

We officially have 3 more weeks left of Summer☀️🪴🪏🌻

I thought it would be Fun to share some moments that make my “favorites”❤️

🚨Come Back Next Saturday to see what made my list….

Today’s “Summer Moment”
Exploring the state we live in..
Ben and I have always loved embracing where we live, by getting out and exploring..
Doing stay-cations, pretty drives, enjoying the great outdoors and exploring fun little towns and the charming small business that fill them.

We love a good day date and Midway, located outside of Deer Valley, is a charming 🇨🇭Swiss town, that we’ve enjoyed bring our family to for years. 

It’s evolved over the years, (know for hosting “Swiss Days” 🇨🇭 the first weekend in September), is full of darling small business, from Cute gift & home decor shops, farm stores, several delicious restaurants, a charming book store, and something our family loves several farm to table shopping and eating establishments. 

If you love to support ranches, farmers and small local business, this is a must visit town. 
⛰️Surrounded by stunning mountains, green pastures and gorgeous ranches. 

Here’s a few of our favorites:⬇️
@havenhaus_co 
@ballerinafarmstore 
@thedaintypearco 
@folkloremidway 
@midway_mercantile 
@hebervalleycheese 

The @zermattutah is our favorite Charming  Swiss 🇨🇭Hotel to stay at, and our boys always loved they’re pool in the winter😉

Tell me, what’s something you do in the summer to make “moment’s”?
