Happy Halloweenie

We carried on our Halloween party tradition here in Iowa and had some friends over for a little shin dig tonight.

One of the couples we just met and there is quite the story behind our "serendipitous" meeting. Ella came in to J.Crew while I was working and I helped her into a fitting room. She has gorgeous hair with ombre coloring so I asked her who did it. She said she had it done in Salt Lake, to which I replied, "that's where I'm from!" She was so happy to have met someone who was in the same situation as her. We swapped numbers and I invited her over for our Halloween party. So we have some fun new friends all because I asked her who did her hair :) It was meant to be I tell ya.

So Happy Hallo"weenie" from Iowa! No costumes for us this year, we were boring, but Thor donned his new Halloween sweater.

Table & Chair Matchup

The dining room is one place people really do their home a disservice. How? They have a matching dining set, a generic light fixture, and no rug under their table. Raise your hand if that's you. Don't worry, you're not alone. Just by adjusting those 3 things (mix up your chairs, add a fun light fixture, add a rug) you can really revamp your dining room. Just bought your dining set and can't afford new chairs? Easy. Keep your side chairs, but find some upholstered chairs to add as captain's chairs on each end of the table. It will mix it up just enough! Plus you'll have 2 extra chairs when you have guests over. Another option is painting your chairs a different color from your table and add some fun cushions or reupholstering the seats. ...
