Looking for a little holiday inspiration?

I've been managing short term vacation rentals for almost three years now and these are the top things that I recommend for someone starting their own airbnb. Please note that decor varies from place to place and is really up to you and what you want your overall home to feel like. I'll list a couple of decorative pieces to get you started but color and style is all up to you:)
This cozy abode marked our debut into the realm of short-term rentals. With love and care, we tailored it for large groups and families seeking a getaway in Coeur d’Alene, ID. Living amidst the hammers and paintbrushes for three months, we poured our hearts into crafting a dreamy retreat. Each detail was handpicked to guarantee top-notch quality and a flawless vacation experience. For fellow fans of our decor or those seeking inspo for their own spaces, we've got you covered with a special list. Questions? Just holler, and I'll swoop in with answers! And hey, if you're missing something on the list during your stay, chances are it's from Homegoods, TjMaxx, or Marshalls. Oh, and the gems adorning the living room console? They're treasures from my go-to thrift shop, Midtown Home & Vintage Market, a mere 0.3 miles away!

I like to keep my kitchen as minimalist as possible! I don't know about you but storage is limited in my house so it's important to make sure my items are effective and can often times serve many purposes.
In a truly Refined Residence, the dining table is more than a place to eat, it is a rotating gallery, a temporary installation of color and life. This edit leans into the lush, "more-is-more" spirit of an Italian summer, where mismatched floral patterns coexist in a single, sophisticated color story. By layering varying scales of botanical prints, from delicate ditsy florals to oversized hand-painted blooms, we create a tablescape that feels like a work of art set against an otherwise calm, neutral interior. This isn’t about clutter; it’s about "Floral Maximalism" executed with precision. Expect heirloom-quality linens, hand-painted ceramics, and sculptural glassware that invite your guests to stay long after the espresso is served. The Art of the Mix: Scale Contrast: Pairing large, bold floral tablecloths with fine, intricate patterns on the salad plates. Tonal Harmony: Keeping the "clash" intentional by sticking to a monochromatic or complementary color family. Natural Textures: Grounding the vibrant prints with raw scalloped edges and artisanal stoneware.
Salt Lamps help rid areas of unwanted smells and create a positive ambiance. I have 2 large, 2 small and 2 night light sized ones. I enjoy the soft glow these also give off at night.
