Favorite Things Linky: Feels Like Home

This week’s Favorite Things is right up my alley because we’re moving to a new house in August and let’s just say it’s a little bit outdated.  That’s okay though! I get to start over fresh!!!!

The rules are simple…share anything you love regarding home(s).  This might mean design inspiration, kitchen gadgets, places to shop, or what home means to you…I’m not picky, I just can’t wait for you to share!

Here are some of my faves:

Front Porches. I have always looooved front porches.  Coffee tastes better on them and hammocks are a little less awkward to get in and out of on a front porch.  Our new house has a screened in back porch which is a compromise for me…but I’ll take what I can get!

Reclaimed Wood Flooring. I have this secret hope that we’ll be lucky enough to stumble upon some of this stuff down the road.  It’s beautiful and I love the idea of having a story that goes along with my home.  Plus, it’s green!

Beamed Ceilings.  Love the rustic element they add to a room. And I think they look especially beautiful with white walls, so it saves you from painting, right?

Open Shelving. We have beautiful everyday china that we received as a wedding gift. {None of that fancy stuff for me}.  Anyways, I think it would beautiful on open shelving.

Fireplaces & Fireplace Mantles.  Decorating my fireplace mantle is one of my favorite things to do.  Our new house doesn’t have a fireplace…GASP! But I just hunted a faux one down on Craigslist and I’m going to put candles or lanterns inside like this picture shows. And decorate the mantle of course.

My Anthropologie Coffee Mug: I am obsessed with these. I buy them for gifts for just about everyone I know!  I just think they’re so pretty. And I love the lowercase letters…a little funkier :)

Throws. I have to have a blanket on me pretty much at all times.  This one is adorable, but just a little over my price range ;)

And there you have it…I really could go on and on, and on and on…but I’ll stop here for today.

Make sure you link up with your favorites too!
