If that's you, here are some items from my vision board that embody a mix of modern/avante-garde, rustic industrial, and country cottage styles to inspire you.

Some of these items I own, the rest… I'm working on it. 😘
Now this is actually my bed! I LOVE IT! Four years ago I bought it for $300 and it's still as classic and timeless as ever.
Emerson Queen Upholstered Bed
I'm someone who makes my bed. I love neutrals with pops of colour to help me feel at ease at the beginning and end of my day. This linen bedding set meets that need. 🤎
Hale Hinterland Co. Linen Bedding Set – Hinterland Harmony
Layers, layers, and more layers! As someone with more pillows than bed (😂) this linen bedding set is so aesthetically pleasing I almost don't want to lay in it.

I've owned this beautiful blanket since 2020 and sleep with it every night. Yes. Even in the heat of summer. Because I'm obsessed.
Luxury Faux Fur Throw Blanket (60''x 80'')
This is currently folded and on the edge of my bed. It's utterly STUNNING and I'm so glad I made the investment. It's thin, 100% cotton, and the PERFECT blanket for hot weather. I use it for decoration a lot but love wrapping myself in it because it'...
Reversible Cotton Blanket (King, 230x250cm)
Everything about this. Just yes. Absolutely yes.
Azra Kilim Lumbar Pillow
I've become such a fan of The Citizenry over the last few weeks. Seriously, I just love how they cater to my Turkish/Moroccan tastes! And the boho feels are just so authentic. This pillow, made in Turkey by the Weavers of Cappadocia? I'm determined t...
Sofia Lumbar Pillow
I have a few sets of pillows but buy plenty of covers so that I can switch up the aesthetic in my room throughout the year.
Bohemian Lumbar Pillow Cover (12 X 28 inches)
There's just absolutely nothing I dislike about the idea of owning two of these one day.

These on the night stands would just set the mood for winding down at the end of a long day.
Capulina Tiffany Lamp
Honeyyyy, I'm in LOVE! I've used many things as a vanity, but in my dream home this would be the ultimate splurge for decadence! 🤩
Frontgate | Etienne Ultimate Vanity
I think if I entered my bedroom every day to see this, it would just bring me such a serene sense of peace and comfort. It's just a beauty.
Anthropologie Aquamarine Beaded Chandelier
Honestly her step by step guide is one of the best around (and I've watched a few of them) and manages to capture the exact colour shade I'm looking for to complete my dream bedroom's aesthetic interior. ♥️
Meghan G's Limewash Paint Wall Tutorial
Using this as a border between the beautiful tile featured in this guide and the limewash wall I'd paint above it… I'm just… 😭
Merola Tile Costa 8" x 8" Ceramic Patterned Wall & Floor Tile from Wayfair
In love with the idea of using a tile like this halfway up the bedroom wall, and finishing the upper half with a limewash paint finish. GUH. 🥴 Add a thin flat liner tile or wooden baseboard at the bottom between the floor and tile and you're all set...
Orange/Terracotta & Blue Flower Mosaic - Florence Pattern
Some of my favorite macrame is made by this wonderful artist, and it's a dream to hang some of her work in my home.
Nana Boho Art – Handmade Macramé
I own two street maps: one of Galilee and another of Jerusalem. I'd love to reframe them in some vintage, bronze or gold… or maybe wooden frame. But for now, they hang beautifully on their own.
Mapiful: Custom Maps and Posters
Add a couple of these for seating and throw in a nice pillow and throw on it, GUH! 😍
bali & pari Rachana Rattan and Bayur Wood French Provincial Accent Chair, Honey Oak
Having this at the end of your bed or by a window is ideal. You could even use this in your living room as an ottoman or in a hallway for seating when putting on shoes. I just reallllly, really, really love this bench, think it's beautiful, and adore...
San Pedro Woven Bench
I have a basket very similar to this that I'm currently using as a laundry basket. It. Works. 🧺
Sundak Storage Baskets - Light
Layers layers layers! Using this cuteeeee area rug to balance between the neutral of the bed and the richness of the colours used in the colour scheme, I think this would be a great accent piece!
nuLOOM Deetta Banded Tassel Rug, 4x6, Beige
Going with a Moroccan theme chevron tile yet indulging in the look of authentic Oak, I'm absolutely in love with the idea of adorning this with Moroccan inspired rugs to create such a warm, and homey feel.
Eternal Chevron Oak Matte Porcelain Wood Look Mosaic Tile
Bathroom
Rub a dub dub, spend all your money on your tub. 🛁
I love how designs like this just give a space identity. Super gorgeous for a half bath! Take it a quarter of the way down the wall and add some creamy beige wainscoting? YES!

The perfect color for some wainscoting to accent the wallpaper!
Cocoa Sand 1122 | Benjamin Moore
LOVING the polished brass finishes, and with this exquisite telephone faucet, it's an absolute DREAM!

Perfect. ♥️
Penida Wicker Bench
Available in dark and light shades, these are just perfect for storage in the bathroom. So stylish! 🧺

The Jewel Tiled Floor at New Orleans' Maison de la Luz
Kitchen & Dining
Here's to building our dream kitchens one spatula or spoon at a time.
Islands may have their uses, but my dream is to utilize the rustic charm and elegance of some good solid wood as both my island and dining table. A sucker for modern French and English country kitchens, this beauty is a mooooodd.
English Country Inspired Dining Table
Ladder back chairs are just straight out of my cottage kitchen dream 🪑✨

Having one side of my dining island filled with chairs and the other with a bench is such a dream of mine!
World Market | Abacos Rattan Cane Bench
When I saw this bench, I knew that it was the perfect fit to make my breakfast nook dreams come true. I loveee the idea of creating a restaurant feel in your home so you always feel like you're in this luxurious mood moving from room to room. 😌
Ballard Designs | Diedra 48' Bench
To say this is on my bucket list of items to acquire before I die is an understatement. Can't you just see it over a rustic farmhouse table??

A soft, breathtaking wallpaper like this coming down to a tile backsplash? Yes please!

Subway tiles are classic and brilliant, but I'd much rather the look of these as my backsplash 🤩
Corinto Provenzal Colors Mix 6-1/4 in. x 12-3/4 in. Porcelain Floor and Wall Tile (8.8 sq. ft./Case)
These Roman shades would do the trick not just in the kitchen, but in the living areas too. Though I'd much prefer some cross thread bamboo shades 🤌
Joss & Main | Legg Bamboo Semi-Sheer Roman Shade
Yes.
COSMO FRY | Plate Rack
I have a fox blanket that I made that always reminds me of Goliath from Judges. This is whimsical and does the same thing. What a gem in a cottage kitchen this would be 💎
Handcarved Land & Sky Wall Cabinet
I have a dream of showcasing my dinner and cookware on open shelves that transport me into another place in time. So obviously, I'm totally in love with this rustic buffet and hutch.
Elsie Green Reclaimed Wood Buffet & Hutch
Instead of a bunch of cabinets (with that darn upper shelf we never like to use) I'd like to have built in shelving above a foyer table like this 🤩 If it isn't big enough for your kitchen, you could always take two of these and set them side by side and do the same thing. 😌
World Market | Everett Long Weathered Natural Wood Table
We're still dreaming, right? This pot filler is just straight out of a dream for me 🤩
Moen Traditional Wall Mount Swing Arm Folding Pot Filler Kitchen Faucet
As most people, I'm a lover of farmhouse sinks. But I need a double sink and this beaut of a copper farmhouse sink just makes my day. You can also pair it with the matching drain stopper and strainer for the ultimate chic look.

Moen Weymouth Pre-Rinse Spring Pull-Down Single Handle Kitchen Faucet
For people who like two handle sink faucets, this is an absolute steal!
Heritage Two-Handle Deck-Mount Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet
This is the set I own. My mother bought a set of Corelle dinnerware that's older than me and she still eats off of it. It was a no brainer this was what I was going with. I had this set in my heart for over a year and using Rakuten and Black Friday deals, got my complete set for the lowwww. Their summer deals are AMAZING so that's another time to buy 😘
Corelle Portofino Collection
I went with blue instead of green, but these vintage dinnerware pieces were actually collected across the French countryside. Swoon. Swoooooon.
Elsie Green Vintage Transferware Plates & Bowls (Set of 4)
Not only are these beautiful, these could be used as a catch all tray in a hallway, these could be used on an ottoman in your living room. Not just for serving, these are just lovely and a unique yet classic touch to any home decor fanatic's dream.

I ordered it, took about a week to get to me, and it's one of the most beautiful blankets I ever did see. Would love to use it as a couch cover on that lovely ginger couch. 😍

This is the type of coffee table born to make a statement.

Deco Tv Frames for Samsung The Frame TV
You can buy this piece with or without the frame and it's just… it's magnificent, really. The layers, the textures (two things I'm really into if you can't tell 🤭) are just everything. This is TRULY a work of art. 🤍

Putting one of these behind the couch, especially if backed against a wall, would be spectacular.

World Market | CRAFT Avni Arched Natural Carved Wood Floral Storage Cabinet
Though I have a mind to put these on shelves or the hutch in the kitchen (and use these as night lights at night instead of the over the stove light), these would look so goooooood in the living room too on a bookshelf! 🤩

Can you imagine?

Woven Blue Pendant Light

I love built in mudrooms, but also like the idea of taking three of these, putting them together, and making one that I could take with me if moving into a new home. 🤩
