Neutral Palette

Amanda’s home is the most beautiful neutral color palette. Her unique ability to mix layers of creams, whites, and natural elements creates a peaceful and cozy vibe throughout her home. Elements like her sofa, pillows, blankets and other accessories share a neutral look, yet by utilizing various textures it gives great dimension and interest. She does neutral perfectly!

Projects Galore

Amanda and her husband are always sharing ways they are fixing up their 1920s home. And who doesn’t like a good before and after or a DIY to tackle? Amanda shares her projects with her readers, and does amazing work. One of my favorites is her new (to her) vintage washboard sink that she and her husband installed themselves. She’s also tackled painting, creating gorgeous tablescapes, and more.

Vintage Goodness Everywhere

I mean, how many amazing things can one house hold? I always find myself oohhh-ing and ahhh-ing over her finds. She shares on her blog too, tips and tricks on how to shop for goodies like you see displayed in her home. So much vintage goodness!! Some of my favorites are her dining room table, her crocks on display, chippy architectural pieces, and her trunk turned coffee table.
