Where did you get those beautiful mirrors in your bathroom? Stunning!
ReplyDeleteThanks Noreen. The mirrors are from Lowes. They are by Allen & Roth.
DeleteI love you and your blog.(:
ReplyDeleteHi...just found your blog and I love your topiary trees & boxwoods you have in your kitchen. Where are those from? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Katie,
DeleteThanks! I purchased my topiaries and boxwoods at HomeGoods. They usually have a decent selection there and they are very affordable.
Have a great weekend,
Courtney
Hello!
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled on your blog thru Pinterest! I as well live in a split level home! Your stairway wall caught my eye, do you have any more pictures of your wall going upstIrs? That's my next project and I don't know where to begin!
Thanks
Ashley
Hi Courtney,
ReplyDeleteI came across your blog in search of ideas for my split level home, also in NJ. You have a beautiful home and I absolutely love your decor. You have inspired me to decorate my split in the same casual classic style. Can you tell me where I can find your dinning room set, I really like the chairs? I’ve searched everywhere for ladder back chairs for a reasonable price but haven’t had any luck. Thank you for such a wonderful blog and for sharing all your great ideas!
Marisela
Hi Marisela, Thank you so much for letting me know that you found some ideas for your home here. We purchased our dining room set from Raymour and Flanigan a few years back. I haven't been in the store in a while so I don't know if they have anything similar. I remember that the price was very reasonable compared to everything else we were seeing elsewhere. Hope that helps!
DeleteHi Courtney, I saw your winter foyer on Hometalk today (from 2011) but couldn't see the resource list when I clicked the link. Where did you find the red deer's head? Did you make it? It is so cute and unique. I'm in New England and will definitely follow your blog going forward. Your home is lovely and warm for your family. We have an English Bull Mastiff, so he's equal to a herd of some dogs! Happy holidays. Jeanne
ReplyDeleteHi Jeanne!
DeleteThank you so much for visiting my blog. So glad to hear you are now following along…Welcome!! I love English Bull Mastiffs. Such handsome dogs.
I purchased the red deer head at HomeGoods a couple of years back. I have seen other deer heads there this year, although none with the red sweater material.
Happy Holidays!
Courtney
Hi! Love the blog. What is beige paint color throughout? Also, where did you purchase most your furniture, especially console table behind couch and two chairs by fireplace? Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Gia! Thank you for visiting. So glad you enjoyed my blog. The beige paint color in the family room is Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige. The plaid chairs by the fireplace are special ordered from Basset Furniture. The console table behind the couch is from JC Penney many years ago. Pretty much every piece of furniture comes from a different place so just ask about anything else :)
DeleteI love your home and all the seasonal decor! What is the wall color you used in the living room / dining room / kitchen area?
ReplyDeleteThanks! The paint color is castle path by Behr.
DeleteHi Courtney! I absolutely love your blog! I'm from the Czech Republic. I was looking for some inspiration to furnish our new apartment - I'm also a fan of Ikea - and I accidentally discovered your blog! I will definitely use some of your ideas! Thank you for it :-)
ReplyDeleteHello, i stumbled across your blog on pinterest and have become a follower. I am building a house a I am picking the same subway tile for shower and octagon and diamond for the shower and bathroom floor. My problem is the grout? What color did you use? How has it held up? I have been told unless you use dark grey or black tjen over time you will see mildew and soap scum build up in the grout. I dont know of i want to go that dark so I am wondering how your ligjter grey has held up and what it is called? I reallllllyy appreciate tour time to answer!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Katey
Hi Katey,
DeleteThe grout in our shower is Silverado and on the floor is Delorean Grey. We haven't had a problem with either grout staining or any soap build up. We went darker on the floor for the reasons you mentioned. We keep the shower pretty clean. We wash down the walls with the hand shower after each shower in addition to regular cleaning. Hope that helps!
I'm curious as to how you went about your IKEA hack vinegar and steel wool stain. I absolutely love the color that your table turned out to be. I completely replaced my table top and am trying the stain you did on your table. I've had white distilled vinegar and fine steel wool soaking in a mason jar for about four days now and it's still clear and the steel wool hasn't dissolved the slightest bit. What am I doing wrong?! Thanks! I really appreciate taking time to answer!! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Holly. I am sorry to hear the stain isn't working for you. I used regular plain steel wool from Home Depot and plain old distilled vinegar. I have actually done it more than once and it has always worked, even after a day. Did you try shaking the jar? The steel wool doesn't completely evaporate...Try shaking it and then applying it to a piece of scrap wood. Good luck!

ReplyDeletePlease tell me the color you painted your hutch? I love it! Thank you! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Courtney, I LOVE your blog and I was wondering if you can recall what color you painted your kitchen cabinets? I have a similar granite and am looking for an "off off white" and yours is pretty much what I've been looking for!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for inspiring so many people...including me!!
What size bead board from Home Depot did you purchase? The PVC kit comes in 32", however yours looks taller? Thanks much!
ReplyDeleteI just happened to stubble across your site .... I totally love your style! I was looking at your gallery wall going up the steps and noticed your light switch had detail on them & I love it! I quickly did a search in your search bar and could not find anything on it ... could you tell me a little more about them or where I can find it at on your blog? Thank you!

ReplyDeleteHi, I saw a pin from your blog featuring two striped panel curtains in front of a bay window/seat. Do you know what size the panels are and where you bought them? I love the look!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! The striped panels are from HomeGoods.
DeleteHi Courtney:
ReplyDeleteWhat are the entire dimensions of your master bathroom? We are remodeling and love your space.
Katy
Hi Courtney
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog on Pinterest and I have a very similar style. I just ordered hardwood floors and they look just like yours. Where did you get yours? Just curious if mine will look just a good!
Hello! My wood floors were purchased at Lowes many years ago. They have held up so wonderfully. This style is perfect for life with kids and pets. I hope you love yours!
DeleteHi! What color are the subway tiles in your kitchen? Are they a bright white or creamy white?
ReplyDeleteLove your kitchen!!!
Thanks! The tile is more of a bright white. They are the basic, in-stock subway tiles from Home Depot. Hope that helps.
DeleteHi Courtney,
ReplyDeleteI love your style and pictures! I also live in NJ and my husband was a trooper.
I love your Joy holiday sign with the wreath! How did you make it?
Thanks,
Sue
Thanks Susan! We made that sign on a whim using an old wooden pallet we had laying around that we painted white. We cut the letters out of plywood using a jig saw. I created the pattern for the letters J and Y online at PicMonkey.com. Then we simply painted the letters red and attached a wreath for the "o". It was a super cheap and easy project that we have used during the holiday season for years now!
DeleteThank you so much! I look forward to making it.

ReplyDeleteHi there. Love your master bathroom. We are remodeling ours as we speak. Was wondering if you know the brand of your chandelier and where you purchased it?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. Sheila
What color are your kitchen cabinets?
ReplyDeleteCan you tell me about your master bed (iron) and where you purchased? LOVE
ReplyDeleteI've been searching and searching for the name of the aqua paint you used on your master bath vanity when you updated it from the original white. Are you willing to share the name and brand of that color?
ReplyDeleteHello
ReplyDeleteI recently came across your 2020 Holiday Home Tour on Pinterest and I especially love your Kitchen decor! The fabric that is skirting the sink, was that purchased this year from Joann Fabrics? I love the pattern and tried to locate it on their site but did not see it.
Happy New Year!
I love your fireplace.....I am assuming it is wallpaper? If it is could you tell me where it is from? Thanks so much!
