The Look For Less

i'm excited to share today "the look for less" at a surprising source! y'all KNOW i love me some serena & lily & anthropologie but their pieces aren't always in everyone's budget. i was shocked to find some great pieces at great prices in the grandin road catalog. i'll admit that i rarely thumb through their catalog when it comes - it usually heads straight to the recycling bin - but something caught my eye this time that made me keep it. so let's get to it...

serena & lily's ryder rug on the left and grandin road's barstow rug on the right.

serena & lily's venice chair on the left and grandin road's sairah chair on the right.

  

kerry cassill quilt on the left and grandin road's adeleine duvet on the right.

serena & lily's avalon daybed (also available at anthropologie) on top and grandin road's paloma bench on the bottom.

The Look For Less

where do i begin? definitely had no intention of not blogging for a week (more maybe?). i've been insanely busy with clients, clients and more clients which i am truly happy and excited about! but i have exactly 4 hours of free time 4 mornings a week to meet with clients or you know, GSD like grocery shop, so that leaves night time to work on designs, email clients, and oh yeah catch up with my husband. and speaking of that very lovely man, he's been away for 4 out of the last five nights! my mom came and helped which was wonderful but then all hell broke loose with my little finn and long story short, he's likely getting a cast today on his left arm. :| so yeah, blogging fell off!

today i have to share a version of the look for less or high/low or whatever you want to call it! i had ordered a new desk for the office (our current desk is too small) and it came and it was all wrong plus was damaged. and i kind of knew it wasn't going to be right but have seen it in so many IG pics where it looks so pretty that i had to try. always go with your gut and mine had been telling me to get a simple white parsons table. i wanted a table instead of a desk because i wanted it to be deeper and wide than your average desk. little trick i love! anyway, i ordered the west elm version during their labor day sale. it was on major back order - like 6 months - so i started looking around for another option and voila! the felix table from overstock.

west elm

overstock

it was easy to put together and it's totally sturdy. the reviews were right on although i was a little nervous about how it would be packaged but it was so well protected and came in perfect shape. and btw the west elm version is now only available in brown so really good thing this other option exists!

the overstock table would be too small to be a legit dining table but i can see it as a desk (obviously), a kids play/homework table, even a console table if you have the space.

Serena & Lily on OKL!!!

interrupting all regularly scheduled posts with an important PSA - serena and lily is on okl RIGHT NOW!!! and there is sooo much stuff! two of my favorite home decor/furnishings sites... this is what heaven must look like. :)

PSA: Awesome Bag Alert!

i came across this bag the other day while doing some xmas shopping and i think it's a total steal! i love the side zippers, it would hold a ton of stuff which for a mom of 2 toddlers is critical, and it looks way more expensive than it is - $54!! for real! granted it's faux leather and i'm a bit of a bag snob (#truth) so i'm a little leery but i think it's definitely worth a try.

any good steals you've seen lately?

Quick Project: Bench Redo

ugh back to the grind after a really nice long break. trying to be positive today but it's painful!

a while back i did a post on upholstering a ballard designs bench (here) and i covered it with a navy pagoda fabric.

it lives in our dining room now and i decided that with the new navy walls, the pagoda fabric didn't really stand out (even though we also had navy walls in our old house - don't know why it didn't bother me then!). so i found a fun block print from lacefield designs in kelly green and navy to reupholster it!

the fabric at fabric.com was $22/yd, and i only needed 1 yard, plus more staples because i couldn't find my old ones, and i was all in on this project for about $25! i think it adds the perfect punch to this space.

this really is such an easy project! start by gathering your tools - very sophisticated tools here ;)

since i was putting a lighter color fabric on, i had to take the other fabric off so it wouldn't show through. i just unscrewed the legs and removed the staples holding it in place.

but i kept the off-white twill that was original to the bench.

the hardest part really is centering the fabric on the bench. it's also hard to get a picture of yourself doing that! that's the only slow part of the project. once you have it centered, just start in with your staples. pull the fabric reeeeally tight and pop one in. i like to start in the middle and work my way to the corners. not at all sure if that's the proper method!

once i had all of the staples in, i quickly trimmed the fabric down so it wouldn't show from underneath. about an inch maybe from the staples?

and voila! a new bench...
