simple simple

I picked up some sparkly and colored tapers at HomeGoods the other day and can't believe what a difference they're making in various spots around the house! Just goes to show how a super simple update can breathe fresh air into your decor. It doesn't get much easier than this, right?!

For some reason, I have the Christmas decorating bug early this year! These candles and the resulting rearranging are helping to satisfy the urge, somewhat. And the sparkly numbers will wait until December (probably...maybe :)). I think I'll gradually bring in other touches over the next few weeks. Like this JOY ....so good!! (also from HomeGoods)

the glass + brass box was a Goodwill find yesterday, for a client ... not sure about that now ;)

Vignettes are being switched up all over the house, with no end in sight as we approach the holidays!

If you'd like some help getting your place ready for the holidays, I'm offering a limited number of styling packages (holiday decor or other). Also available as Christmas gifts! See this post and contact me for more details: katiegaviganinteriors@gmail.com.

big news: styling packages for all!

Email me for more info and with any questions! I'm SO excited about getting some homes styled for the holidays as well as helping several gift package recipients after the holidays. (Can you imagine a better gift?!)

new every morning

Mercy.  So new.  So fresh.

Every. Single. Day.

So good, satisfying, rich. His goodness overwhelms me. He's more than I need. Surpasses all my wants, desires, concerns, struggles.

I won't rest on or be satisfied with yesterday's stuff, no matter how good it was. Today is new, today is here... today, there's more.

beads as decor

You may have picked up on the fact that I love to hang beads everywhere. In yesterday's post they were on doorknobs and lamps and bedposts. I thought that these examples and a few others deserved close-ups...

My style is all about layers, and this is a great way to add dimensions...of texture, shape, color, whimsy. 

In looking for other examples of beads as a decor element, I discovered I'm in good company. All of the below images are from Schuyler Samperton's work...

Stringing them around bottles is new inspiration for me and I'll surely be trying it out soon!

Interested in working together to make your home the best it can be? I'd love to talk!
