Home Decor That Never Goes Out of Style

You know the saying "some things just never go out of style". That phrase definitely holds true with home decor items. Trends may come and go with each season, and you may even decide to change your home decor to an entirely different style,

DIY: Mason Jar Room Freshener

Hello Monday!
I don't know about you, but I think that weekend just moved wayyyyy too fast!

Being the die hard "DIY junkie" that I am, I'm always on the hunt for some fun and easy projects that actually look nice when you finish them. If you remember this blog post from last week, I included some really neat DIY mason jar room air fresheners.

Industrial Galvanized: It's an Addiction

I have to laugh sometimes when I look back at the different stages of my life. I can remember when I was younger and always wanting things that were shiny & new. The new dark Gloria Vanderbilt jeans, the latest and greatest Nike "swoosh" tennis shoes, and the newest Run DMC album.

~Seeing Green~

Happy "almost" weekend!

After posting this photo on Instagram today, I realized that besides clearly being addicted to the color green, I am pretty much a creature of habit.........are you?

You know the type......you find yourself doing the same things over and over again, but do you stop and think why? I took a little bit of time today to ponder this notion and came to the conclusion that I repeat things over and over again because:  A) I like it..... B) it's easy.... C) it just works.

2016: The Year of Simple

Reflecting on 2015, I have come to the conclusion that my new word for the New Year is : Simple.
Simple life, simple fun, simple home decor.

Painted Fox Design Series: Rustic Farmhouse Baskets

Happy Thursday friends!

Some girls have an addiction to shoes or handbags, mine falls more under the category of baskets.
Big ones, small ones, wicker, metal, rustic, farmhouse........if "basket" is in the product title, I'm more than likely to snatch it up and bring it home.

Baskets are so much fun......they can be used in such a wide array of ways, from displaying holiday decor, stacking dishes for serving, even using them in your outdoor garden spaces.

Painted Fox: Farm Fresh Chicken Tins

 Happy Thursday friends!

When the Thanksgiving decor is going up in my house I get really excited because I know that Christmas isn't too far behind! I'm not a real heavy Thanksgiving decorator, but I do have a few cute things I like to put out each year. Tom the Turkey is on the top of my list.
How cute is this little guy?
I found him at Joann Fabrics and I think he's the perfect added touch to my new Painted Fox "Farm Fresh Chicken" tins!

Benjamin Moore 2016 Color of the Year

I'm not sure about you, but I was "over the moon" when I heard the news that the Benjamin Moore Color of the Year is "Simply White".

 
2015 was the year that I turned my home from "builder beige" into a white wonderland. I had my home built and never really gave the paint color a second thought until I realized that dark beige gets old.......fast. It doesn't really lend itself well to a more neutral decor color palette. I spent a good part of the year rolling up my sleeves, grabbing my white paint can and the transformation began. I was able to re-paint my entire kitchen, Great Room and main entry hallway a beautiful shade of white.

Painted Fox:Farmhouse Zinc Bowl Pair

I know that I say it every week, but you can't imagine how much fun I'm having introducing these new and unique Painted Fox items picked especially for you!

And then it happened......these Farmhouse Zinc Bowls came into my life. When these beauties arrived, I truly pulled them out of their box and stared.....and stared....and this went on for about a half hour.

I just could not get over their true beauty!

Painted Fox: Farmhouse Boiler Tin LOVE

Hi farmhouse lover!

Welcome back to another week of my At Home Design Series with Painted Fox!

I'm super excited about this weeks item because I gave you a little "sneak peek" yesterday on Instagram (without you even knowing it)....I'm kinda slick that way.

Everyone loved this robin egg blue rustic Farmhouse Boiler Tin so I decided to make it this weeks Painted Fox item of the week! 

At Home Design Series: Farmhouse Twig Stools

Happy Thursday!

Welcome back to another fun week of my At Home With Collette Osuna Design Series. If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen my post last night telling you I felt like a kid on Christmas Eve thinking about this weeks design series item and having to keep it a "secret".

It's my idea of Christmas morning and the cat is out of the bag......well the stools are out of the box is more like it. Holy wow! Can we all just say "Cassville pedestal stool love"?

~My Plaid Addiction: Target Loves Plaid Too~

Happy Friday!

I mentioned during my Persicope video yesterday that I was taking part in a really fun Holiday Home Tour with some crazy talented blogger friends this season! You can bet your bottom dollar that my home will be all decked out for Christmas with plaid! What's not to love, right?

Painted Fox At Home Design Series: FOUND Vintage Tulip Crate

Since we're all friends here, I feel very comfortable telling you "if loving this Found Vintage Tulip Crate is wrong, then I don't want to be right". (<--------admit it, you just sang the tune in your head when your read that)

Holy tulip crate! I'm not even kidding.....you should have seen how big my eyes grew when my daughter carried in the humongous box from the front porch. So I may or may not always look at product dimensions and sometimes it's a problem, but not today. This crate is HUGE and I love it!

Hammered Aluminum Bowls        Rattan Baskets

If you're anything like me, you wanted to scream at the top of your lungs when you saw Holiday decor going up in retail stores in July........slow your roll people! Let's actually enjoy each season, wouldn't you say? My sad face emojis are about to go into overdrive because Summer is officially over.

I may or may not have been living under a rock these past couple weeks working on my new home decor magazine Everything Home <-----------------(SUPER exciting), but I always have time to keep up with the latest home decor news and my sweet friends over on Instagram.
