Shot on white paper, her images are simple and serene, and have garnered an avid following for their quiet aesthetic.” If you’ve ever desired to immerse yourself in her world, now you can. Hoffman’s first line for Target, STILL by Mary Jo Hoffman, is now available. At last you can rest your head on a pillow printed with her birds’ nests, feathers, flowers, vines or thistles.

Shower behind a curtain festooned with an arching branch of bleeding heart, a row of North Shore lake rocks, or a red-hot line of sumac leaves. Or nestle between sheets printed with Hoffman’s beloved blue jay feathers, bittersweet vines, birch trees, or lake reeds. STILL by Mary Jo Hoffman features 33 images from her blog in eight color-themed collections of sheets, shams, pillowcases, duvet covers and shower curtains. Printed on 600-count cotton (luxurious and weighty), the items are minimalist yet serene. For those who have merely looked, it’s now possible to bring Hoffman’s singular sensibility—Scandinavian, clean, refreshing—into your home. STILL for West Elm Hoffman has also created a collection of gold-framed acrylic wall hangings featuring 36 different STILL images for West Elm that are now available. STILL for West Elm includes Hoffman’s botanical arrays, insect wings, egg collections, and feathers arranged in shadow-box-like frames on white backgrounds that, Hoffman says, “cast elegant shadows on the wall behind them.”

In our interview, Hoffman said this about her work: “These days we’re so bombarded with stimuli. curtains 230cm dropTo slow down and just look at one thing, isolated on white, is very calming. top gear stig curtainsThe images are also orderly and orderliness is calming. curtains and blinds murrumbeenaFor me, creating the images is meditation, a form of deep play.” winnie the pooh playground curtainsNow we can play, too.blackout curtains 46x90 Photos via Mary Jo Hoffmanjudith hoffmann curtains

I intended to show you the guest bathroom makeover reveal earlier this week, however, it’s been put on hold until the hardware for the vanity (currently on backorder) comes in. In the meantime, I decided I’d show you this DIY distressed towel rack I made for the space. Check out the simple step-by-step: Start with piece of wood cut to desired size. Paint wood with first layering color of choice. Paint wood with second layering color of choice. Paint wood with top coat color of choice. Distress wood using hammer, chain, etc. followed by sanding to expose layers of paint. Screw it to the wall (using a level for accuracy) and admire your handy work! You can add as many layers of paint as you want, however, I personally prefer to stick to no more than three. I used a glossy paint as my final coat but I would recommend a matte or eggshell finish to make the distressed look appear more authentic.

The hooks I used were from Hobby Lobby (50% off at the time) so the whole project only cost me $6 since I already had the wood and paint. I think this guy would also be a fun hook option. Have you distressed anything lately or come across a cool DIY worth trying out? DIY grain sack-inspired pillow. I love the look of striped grain sack pillows but I’m not a fan of the price tag (reference below), not to mention most of them are just sold as covers so the pillow itself would be an additional cost. 1. Etsy, $40 // 2. Pottery Barn, $39.50 // 3. West Elm, $69 // 4. This weekend I managed to make my own using a plain pillow I already had lying around plus some Scotch tape and a bit of red paint from a previous project. It was so easy that there isn’t even a tutorial worth showing; all I did was use the tape to create lines to the thickness I wanted and painted in between the tape. If you don’t have a cream or white pillow lying around like I did, IKEA sells covers for as little as $3 and cushions starting at $4.

Check out the before + after: This is definitely an easy and affordable DIY and will only take about 20 minutes of your time. If you’re not necessarily a big fan of the stripe look, using stencils to trace a word or an ampersand symbol would also be a fun option! Is this a DIY project you’d consider tackling?You guys know I love changing and improving rooms to reflect my constantly evolving taste and style which has the potential to get pretty expensive. However, between DIY projects, shopping second-hand and scouring for the best deals, it’s actually very manageable! Below is a prime example of how shopping around and price comparing can save you hundreds. Like I always say, high style doesn’t have to come with a high price tag! Let me know if you’d like to see more ‘crave vs save’ posts! Have a great weekend! guest bathroom makeover: progress report. Although the picture doesn’t show much of a change, a lot happened over the weekend to kick off the bathroom makeover!

— The walls got a new coat of paint (‘dried plantain’) while the ceiling received a fresh coat of white, the vanity cabinets + drawers were cleaned and spray painted (hard to tell in the picture but they were an off-white before so I made them bright white to match the sink), the tiles received a good scrub plus some new caulk where need be, and the new shower curtain was put up! $9.98, orig. $19.99 – why thank you Target clearance! Now that the cleaning + painting portion of the project is done with, next comes the installation of a new night fixture, adding new vanity hardware and accessorizing, aka the fun stuff! (I’ll also be making a towel rack with some scrap wood and these hooks, so stay tuned for that tutorial!) Visit again soon for the final reveal! guest bathroom makeover: setting the tone. Earlier this week I asked on the blog and on Facebook for your opinion on what paint color you think would be best in the guest bathroom I am making over.

Most people seemed to be in favor of ‘clothesline fresh.’ Contrary to popular vote, I’ve decided to go with ‘dried plantain’  after a week of deliberating and looking at the swatches in different lighting. Like I mentioned previously, I think the pale yellow will be a nice complement to the black & white tile which will result in the quaint, “cottage-y” look I’m after. Before I get to painting and updating a variety of other elements, here’s what I’m starting out with: And here’s what I’ve got in mind for the makeover: (click image to enlarge) The light yellow walls will be the perfect backdrop to the botanical bird print shower curtain that I scored at Target last week for 50% off ($9.98!). The next step in updating the space will involve swapping out the current outdated light fixture with this charming lantern-esque one. Then comes all the small (yet equally important) components — apothecary jars for storing cotton balls and Q-tips; wire baskets for corralling hand towels and toiletries;

new cabinet knobs for adding charm to the now-boring vanity; a jute bath rug for infusing a bit of texture to the space; an oil can soap dispenser for giving off a cool farmhouse feel; and a mix of accessories to complete the look! I am also thinking a rustic DIY towel rack is in order for this wall where I previously showed you the paint swatches. Progress post coming next week! The guest-suite bathroom in our basement is probably one of the most least-used rooms in the house, which explains why it has taken me more than a year to finally get around to deciding how to make some updates/improvements to it. If you read my post about our third floor bathroom makeover, then you know my first step in updating a room involves paint. The current color is a muddy yellow/beige which does absolutely nothing for the space.  I swatched three paint colors that I had leftovers of from other rooms I painted in the house and now I am at a crossroad… ‘Dried plantain’ would pair nicely with the black & white floor tiles for a charming cottage feel (this is actually the same color used in the third floor bathroom), while ‘clothesline fresh’ gives a soothing and airy spa-like vibe (this is the color in my office which you have yet to get a tour of!).
