01

JIF creamy peanut butter

If you're team crunchy... we need to talk, ha-ha! I am #teamcreamy all the way. You will find my pup, Oakley and I enjoying a  teaspoon of peanut butter every night.

02

COCOA BUTTER LIP BALM

I literally buy this in bulk twice a year from Walgreens and have been doing so for the last 6 years. I've never looked back! You can say this is a true obsession, ha-ha! Awkward, but an obsession nonetheless. 

03

COOL TOUCH BED PILLOW

I have a confession to make... I get extremely hot when I sleep at night. So much so I had to invest in a cool touch pillow. This is in addition to lowering the AC to low 70s and cranking up the bedroom fan. You will find my hubby Andrew buried under the covers! *shrug emoji*

πŸ‘‰πŸΌ2. Add a statement mirror - I'm currently loving the floor length arch shaped mirrors and the gold arch from Anthropology. 




πŸ‘‰πŸΌ3. Invest in new window treatments - Hang them higher than the windows go to create the feeling of higher ceilings).




πŸ‘‰πŸΌ4. Update light fixtures - Start with the entryway and work your way through the home to see what other spaces might be in need of a little glow up.




πŸ‘‰πŸΌ5. Add a new plant (to every room) - Plant life is trending in interior design this year and brings so much life into a space. The other day I added a small faux olive plant to my nightstand and it made such a difference in the warmth of my bedside!




πŸ‘‰πŸΌ6. Add an area rug that fits your space for an updated look - Check out Ruggable - they're machine washable so perfect for pets and kiddos.




πŸ‘‰πŸΌ7. Replace light bulbs - Get all matching bulbs and brighten things up! 




πŸ‘‰πŸΌ8. Upgrade your linens - You deserve to sleep in luxury! My current favorite for sheets is Brooklinen Luxe Sateen and I'm also loving Parachute for bedding! *Go neutral, especially if you're thinking about selling this year!




Which of these are you going to try next? I am currently in the midst of updating my linen and rug in the primary bedroom!
