Feature Friday: Houston House

Posted on 03:00 by Unknown
Today I am featuring the home of blogger Ashley from the blog Houston House. Here is what she says she loves most about here home:

My favorite part about our house is that it's comfortable. I love spaces that are not only pretty to look at but are easily lived in as well. Spaces that invite you to kick off your shoes and stay a while. Our home makes me want to do just that. 

Enjoy!

My Favorite Affordable Neutral Chairs

Posted on 07:56 by Unknown
Recently I've been on the hunt for affordable neutral chairs for a few of my clients. I've found that there are a lot of great options out there! I tend to love colorful or patterned chairs myself and I usually stick with neutral sofas. But if you have a lot of color going on in a room you can never go wrong with a good neutral chair. Here are a few of my favorites:


one. Safavieh Nottingham Sand Beige Club Chair $44.8.82 // two. Collins Wingback Chair $499 // three. Sand Kendall Chair $365.49 // four. Tribeca Beige Linen Chair $509.99 // five. Baxton Studio Norwich Beige Chair $350.09 //  six. Clarise Sculptured Snow Chair  $269 // seven. Vaughn Tufted Slipper Chair $189.99 //  eight. Catalina Chair $645 // nine. Sweep Armchair $649

Best of 6th Street 2013

Posted on 03:00 by Unknown

I always love rounding up my favorite posts from the past year. It's incredible to me to see all that I've been able to share and do in one little year. 2013 was a year of exploration and discovery for me. With the birth of my little Jane I felt the need to cut back on either my blog or my business and I originally decided to cut back on the business. The decision felt right to me but as the months went by I started rethinking my decision. I eventually decided to refocus on the business but make some big changes to the way I ran things. So far I'm very happy with my decision and as always appreciate all the support from my readers! I hope you are able to spend some time clicking through some of my most favorite posts. 
I rounded up a list of my favorite places to buy home accessories. 


I shared Jane's birth pictures and shared tips on photographing labor and delivery.
