Home improvement

Completing the bedroom with a striped Ikea throw

Ever since I moved into a new place in Ann Arbor, I've been on a mission to make each room as functional and pretty as possible. Of course, this is an ongoing process and a little hard to do when your quirky place has tight corners and your furniture budget is...slowly growing. This past weekend I felt like a happy medium was finally achieved and each room received the finishing touches on a tight budget. A graphic blanket, new coffee table, and small knick knacks came together to complete each room, making them cozy and eclectic.

New coffee table adorned with vintage glass dishes, pastry boxes, and books

Stacked gift boxes create a pop of color behind simple candles

A gifted brass bird clip provides the perfect outgoing mail holder at the entryway

A mix of food, candles, and wood for the kitchen table centerpiece

Does anyone else have some great home decor items they've just added or are hoping to find? Also, don't forget to enter the Ladyee Boutique giveaway below. The dress is the perfect staple item!
