Freshen Up Your Home for The New Year

I know we’re all in the mindset for the holidays, which don’t get me wrong, I am as well. But in addition to seeking out gifts for others, I’ve personally been keeping my eye on some specific pieces to freshen our home for the new year! So I was thrilled to find out that one of my favorite home decor retailers, Serena & Lily was launching their ‘Thank You Event’ prior to Black Friday! The sale will continue through 12/1 with almost the entire site 25% OFF with code ‘THANKFUL’. It’s the perfect opportunity to commit to a furniture piece you’ve had your eye on, or spruce up some of your tabletop collection in anticipation of entertaining. They’re got a great selection of color + texture that I just love to sprinkle throughout our home.

If you’ve been following along via IG stories, you may have seen our small, outdoor courtyard transformation! If you have no clue what I’m referring to, have no fear, there’s a highlight on my profile titled ‘courtyard’ if you’d like to check it out! Alas, the project is FINALLY complete {after months}, and we could not be more thrilled with how it all came together. We anchored our dining space around the Terrace Table. She’s such a beauty, and really lightens up the space like we wanted, while also providing a great tie in with our herringbone brick work + ivory contrast mortar.

We love our outdoor table so much, that we’re actually considering the round version for our interior dining room! The classic style is exquisite and the finish unique. Now my only struggle is what new dining chairs to pair with a round! Round back, square back, upholstered, wood…oh the options! Oh – that and, to switch the chandelier or to not. Haha. Basically an entire new dining room, maybe?!

SHOP MY FAVORITE FURNITURE

SHOP MY FAVORITE SERENA & LILY TABLETOP

I’ve used these napkins several time for tablescapes + events, including this spring table. And will be purchasing additional sets of the blue hue in anticipation of spring soirees in the new year! They’re a great lightweight material that absorbs and cleans easily. I also LOVE their woven placemat selection, specifically these beauties! Such a fun outer rim shape.

SHOP MY FAVORITE PILLOWS + THROWS

The easiest, and dare I say one of the most cost effective, ways to switch up the look/feel of your living space is throw pillows! Serena & Lily has an incredible selection of pillows that will add a plethora of texture to your favorite cozy corner. We snagged these blue beauties a few weeks ago and love the color it adds to our couch! I’ve also been eying these ultra textured squares for our outdoor space.
