bring on the ottomans

whether it's holding your drinks, books or feet, ottomans 

are a multifunctional staple in the home.

lucky for us, they no longer need to be the boring, stiff leathered 

pieces that we often think of. 

here are some of my favorites:

did anyone see that burlap upholstered ottoman? I think I just died and went to heaven.

happy browsing!

Monday Thoughts

So stemming off of a weekend bachelorette party in Charleston, SC for my girl, Amanda Cheek, today wasn't exactly a day of productivity. I did, however, come up with a list of my day dreams, in which I titled "Morgan's Monday Home Decor Thoughts"

Pics of course: 

navy and chevron-what more could a girl ask for?!

burlap is my favorite color

cool!

a must

i'd die for this ottoman 

duh

white white white! french market bliss

done! off to Tuesday thoughts...

Mellow Yellow

another day, another obsession.

since i'm more of a "blue, green, purple" kind of girl, yellow is the perfect step to enter the world of warm tones

i've spotted some great inspiration to get me there:

DIY pillows FTW

seriously, who doesn't love chevron?

wall art, wall art, wall art

gray and yellow is starting to become my favorite obsession 

what great wallpaper BTW

accent! perfect for the back porch

love the A but where can I get an M?

aside from the cool wall art, who else is dying over that coffee table?

had to throw in the yellow Hunters because...well, just because

here's to hoping my new favorite color lasts a few years....

Southern "Accents"

I can't wait to have an actual house....

After what seems like hours of getting lost in Southern Living and Garden and Gun magazines, I have decided that my "real" house will be the best decorated house on the block!

Here are some great ideas that I've found that will add southern flair to any room:

easy bedroom ambiance enhancer  

 each person gets their own basket for the stuff they leave 

around the house--cute idea!

white base + patterned pillows

I can appreciate this...

cute placeholder for a cookbook

love this mirror!

definitely doing this, what a great idea

wine rack or towel holder? you choose

old picture frame becomes a key holder

love everything about this--from the pillow to the 

couch to the lamp!

another old frame now frames the AC!

fresh, clean look for a makeshift mantle

happy decorating!

Gotta give her "props"!

Doing a little planning for future markets and I stumbled across interior designer, Lindsey Ellis Beatty. 

Immediately I fell in love with her eye for design and great use of color.

Check out her feature in Southern Living Magazine and you'll see why she's one of the best prop stylists around!
