Traditional Glam

I absolutely LOVE changing up the colors in my place every once in a while for a different feel. This season, I fell head over heels for gold, white and navy blue. This combination took my home from the fun, summer-like feel that I had and into more of a classic, traditional and downright classy space. It's timeless and the perfect mix of feminine and masculine. Here are my favorite picks for  a "Traditional Glam" look in the home. Lots of character, lots of texture and touches of gold glam.. just the way I like it :)

1. Gold Capiz Chandelier
2. The Cross Kidman Berger Chair
3. Hemnes Dressing Table
4. Antiqued Gild Wood Frames
5. Kelso Table Lamp
6. Brass Leaf Side Table
7. John Robshaw - Bergamot Block Printed Pillow
8. Q White 20" Pillow
9. White Leather Pouf
10. Sea Grass Baskets

Pastels

Calm, serene, soft and beautiful. All words that I would used to describe my love, "Pastel". There is just something about these colors that seem so dreamy and romantic.  We always see this palette come around every spring season and I look forward to it every year. A great transition from the dark wintery colors to vibrant summer colors. Just lovely :)

P - Clay Architecture Set // A - Endless Summer Silk Scarf
S - Framed Chalkboards // T - Chocolate Filled Toadstools //
E - Chiffon Bandeau Dress // L - Salt Water Cure Print

 

My Life Through Instagram

All I have to say is, thank the good Lord spring break is over AND I really need help with my craft-making skills. I definitely had to get creative with the construction paper over the past couple weeks. Although, to the general public it wouldn't really appear that I was creative at all. Can't knock me for trying ;) Here is my life in the past couple of weeks through instagram (@hardydanielle).

In the words of Kate Gosselin, "It may be a crazy life.. but it's our life."

1. Making chain links. (I know it's pathetic.. please humor me!)
2. Paper Houses!! This may be the only time that my boys will incorporate hearts into their house making
3. Captain America and Ironman I recognize but who is the weirdo in the back? oh, that's my husband? AWESOME!
4. Taking a break from ice skating to pose for the camera.
5. On top of the world! Taking in the beautiful spring sunshine in Whistler.
6. We heart snowboarding.
7. Making Banana Pancakes, pretending it's the weekend :)
8. Birthday Flowers from my Hardy boys.
9. Fam jam time, tubing in Whistler.

Peach, Gold & a Hint of Forest

Happy Monday!! I spent the weekend catching and getting over a cold. #blah It went from the hubs to the kids and then landed on yours truly.  I was supposed to be spending my weekend kiddless in Seattle but I guess the world had different plans for me. The good news is that I got caught up on my taxes and house cleaning which is almost as fun.. right? At least that's what I keep telling myself and we'll keep it at that.

I bring to you my Monday Faves:

1. Chevron Gold Drawer Liners
2. Enamoured Necklace
3. Maple Cutting Board
4. White Deer Head Wall Mount
5. Donut Table Lamp
6. Peony Wallpaper
7. Acorn Cap Candles
