There are questions in life that we may never has the answers to like “why does a four day work week always seem extra-long?” While you enjoy your weekend and ponder this question, also take some time to enjoy my Favorites Of The Week.

The summer home tours have started and I loved touring Kris’ beautiful home. Her family room is so bright and crisp and I love all the special details she’s styled the space with.

I’m at the stage in life where I’m wanting to purge and live with less. Apartment Therapy posted an article on minimalism recently and this quote by Joshua Becker, author and blogger at Becoming Minimalist grabbed my attention–“Desiring less is even more valuable than owning less.” It’s a great read if you’re feeling the urge to lighten your load too.

Framed textiles are such a unique way to create custom artwork for your home.

This Dip Dyed Stationery is a project to add to your DYI to-do list. So cute!

This bathroom is just one of the amazing room designs in this designers portfolio.

Floral patterns are always a big trend for spring and summer but I’m loving all the textured pillows I’m seeing on store shelves. If you’re not a pattern person, textured pillows are a great way to add visual interest to a chair or sofa. These Fringe Diendra Pillows are from Anthropologie and they are beyond beautiful.

If you’re planning on doing a lot of entertaining this summer, you might want to pick up this chic Leaf Print Tablecloth from H and M Home for only $24.99. And if you need some tablescape inspiration here’s a gorgeous party table styled using the tablecloth.

Anyone else out there have sunglasses scattered around your house? I just can’t seem to come up with a workable storage option to keep them all in one place. That is until now. The Emily & Meritt Sunglass Holder from Pottery Barn Teen is the solution to my problem. I love that it can also be used to hold jewelry.

Before I sign off, I just wanted to say Thank You for all the wonderful comments here on the blog and on Instagram on my Bohemian Inspired Tablescape. In case you missed it, you can read the full post here.

I hope you enjoyed my Favorites Of The Week. Have a fantastic weekend and I’ll see you back here Monday with an awesome Father’s Day Gift Guide.

It’s been a long week and I’m so happy that the weekend has arrived. I’ve got more than my fair share of stuff to get accomplished this weekend including some social media work, creating my packing list for our cruise and doing a little painting. Even though it’s going to be jammed packed weekend, I’m planning to enjoy every bit of it because Monday will be here before you know it.

To kick off the weekend, I’ve rounded up my favorites from the week. Enjoy!

When it comes to neutral decor, this living room is one of my favorites–just looking at it give me a sense of calm and relaxation. The trick to pulling off this color palette is using different shades of from one color family, incorporating texture and pattern work and using white to provide a clean crisp contrast. #texture #tonal #50shadesoftan

I love coloring in my coloring books because it’s so relaxing and almost hypnotic. Up until now the books I found have included abstract images or flowers so I’m super excited about this coloring book which is perfect for a design lover like me.

Do you host a Cinco de Mayo party? Even if you go out for Mexican food like we do, you still might want to take along these super adorable mini pinatas. #toocute
