Home Sweet Home

 

 I think you'd be surprised how much your front door, entry, or back room can effect your feeling of home. It is the first thing you experience when you walk in and the last thing you touch as you leave. Pending the nasty winter Chicago was supposed to be having, I decided to be prepared and purchase a door mat to catch all the slush and snow from the city. Luckily, that hasn't happened yet but I did realize how much my entry needed one. It was the missing piece that I didn't know I needed until I bought it. Now it feels like home. I bought mine from Target and I love the pattern - proves that you can add personality anywhere in your home - even the doorway! Here are a few others I love via Etsy and Pinterest:

Lazy Day Finds

Yesterday I did absolutely nothing but lay around, browse online and watch You've Got Mail. (I'm a sucker for rom-coms of the 90's). Truth is, it's been an exhausting two weeks and I needed a day to clear my mind. The holidays are just around the corner and I've only just begun my Christmas shopping. I found some crazy cute gift ideas on Etsy, each under $50!
