Be My Guest

Recently I've been turning my attention to our bare bones guest room. This is the first place we've had the luxury of having an office and a place for loved ones to crash. I love prepping the house with fresh flowers and mineral water, but like I said, the room itself is lackluster. After reading Bri Emery's post on house guests, my motivation for rolling up the sleeves was rekindled. When it's finished, it's all yours.

With the recent move into our first house, I got to thinking about the meaning and milestone a first home brings. So many memories will be created within these walls... our first Christmas... entertaining the in-laws... bringing home our first pup together.

I curated a sweet gift guide for the new homeowners in your life. While the happy couple may not be expecting a gift, they'll swoon over their new, precious keepsake.
