Bohemian/Eclectic Bedrooms

I absolutely adore interior design. ADORE IT. I was the weird kid always rearranging her bedroom to get it to "feel right" and look good. My style has grown up from my blue sponge-painted childhood bedroom days. Thank. Goodness.

As an adult, I've been constantly drawn to bohemian, eclectic, and rustic looks, and I love to mix them all together in a cool, instant-relaxation kinda way. I am love with pairing natural elements (plants, rocks, wood) with cool, unique colors and patterns. I've attempted to do this in my own bedroom (which you'll get a sneak peek of at the end of this post). Does anyone else love bohemian and eclectic elements as much as I do??


I love the pairing of the beautiful wooden frame with the fun string lights and colorful shaggy rugs for the ultimate cozy, bohemian nook.

I really love the playful vibe of this bedroom especially with the light walls and fun, colorful linens. And who doesn't love the little storm trooper on the bedside table? The natural light makes the whole room glow with warmth and sunshine.

This bedroom has got to be one of my absolute favorites. This bedroom is not afraid to be bold and colorful. I love the mixing and matching of pillow fabrics as well as the canopy-curtained bed.

And finally----- Here are a few pics of my own bedroom, which is still a work in progress.

As you can see, I am a huge John Lennon fan and an avid reader. I love my cozy little bedroom where I can read, relax, and just be. I think I've done well on a limited budget. What do you think?

Autumn Day at the Apple Barn

Hello lovely readers,

This past weekend my family and I traveled to Sevierville, Tennessee (home of the legendary Dolly Parton) and participated in some fun fall activities at the Apple Barn!

The Apple Barn is a large collection of rustic stores and restaurants that provides good, hearty food, flavorful cider and wines, and artisan-crafted goods. The location of this little village is off the main road in Sevierville across the street from a beautiful flowing river that I just HAD to explore. :)

We ate at the Apple Barn Restaurant, which was delicious. They even had gluten free options for me. You walk in the restaurant, and you're met with a beautiful mantle and fireplace to welcome you in. The restaurant is very quaint and made you feel like you were eating at your grandmother's house versus a restaurant.
Their menu was full of southern, hearty dishes like chicken-and-dumplings, chicken pot pie, and tender pork loin. The food was delicious and even came with a free dessert!

After eating, we wondered the shops which were full of artisan crafts including soaps, candles, food, candy, and Christmas decor. The stores were set in log-cabin like buildings with exposed wood accents, crafted staircases, and decorative mantles. I ended up purchasing an apple butter scented candle. It smells heavenly in my living room. I also bought a caramel and peanut-dipped candied apple that I saved for the ride home.

The small village included two restaurants, a candy store with a fudgery, a winery, an apple cider bar (which we didn't get to experience due to the crazy long lines), a general store, and a Christmas shoppe. It was the perfect setting for a perfect autumn day with family.

Hope the rest of your autumn is heavenly and full of fun, family memories!
