I hope you all have a wonderful day today and have most cherished memories and times spent with friends and family. I am beyond excited that all day NBA games will be in full effect. Besides being in front of the tv with good food amd family, I will be heading over to my parent’s house to make a big breakfast and then a red velvet cake to take to my brother’s. I also plan to watch the Disney parade and Gremlins on dvr lol and read magazines. Hope Santa brings you everything you want…

Here’s some inspiration on how to set those tablescapes & decorate for this weekend’s shindigis. Figured I’d post the Saturday Sunday Shindig today so you can get any last minute things if you need to in advance. If you don’t have a bar cart but have a baby or know someone who does, maybe borrow their changing table and see how you can convert it into a beverage station HERE. It’s all about repurposing what you already own. Signature drinks are the best because you can make pitchers of it and have glasses already filled versus standing around a blender all evening. It allows you time to mingle and actually ENJOY your guests. Imagine Design Blog always has cocktail recipes you can try…

Love the classic plaids up and through the place setting…
Set your walkway a glow with candles…and check out that brick. Love it…

Spray painting fallen branches is virtually free and brings that nature element into the space…
Just like Spring and Summer, we can prepare for the colder seasons by swapping out pillows and adding certain textiles to the space. Yeah I know it’s still fall but here in Milwaukee we’ve hit lows at the freezing mark (although today is going to be 60). Heavy cozy materials like tweed, plaid, corduroy, cable knit, wool, cashmere, velvet, suede & faux fur helps keep the seasons in prospective. I like the image above because despite the fabric selection the room isn’t heavy. The lighter hued walls, floor, white washed ceiling and couch keeps the space bright which we need considering the lack of sun many of us are exposed to. Sometimes the last thing you want is to get off work when it’s dark and come home to a dark room.

Nick Jonas sure does have a swanky bachelor pad. This is exactly how you mix design, style and masculinity.
Really like the ornate headboard mixed with plaid upholstery and plush textiles in the rug & throw. Very stylish. To see more of his home, head on over to Small Shop Studio.
