If you're a long time reader, you know we've been on the struggle bus with the living room for years. It just never feels quite right. While I can't say we've nailed it (yet), we are much closer with the addition of this amazing coffee table. We've never had one that really fit the space and while I truly loved our previous one, I finally found a woven round coffee table I loved, saved up, and bought it- picture me jumping up and down, please.

Thank you Serena & Lily for sponsoring this post. All opinions are mine.

When Genevieve said she wanted her own room, I can't say I was surprised. She and her sister are very close but she's inching (actually more like barreling) toward the teen years and homegirl needs her space. I adore designing kid spaces so we immediately started dreaming about her new room. Her very first request was for a hanging chair and let's just say that was the easiest 'compromise' I'll probably ever make with my almost teenage daughter. While we are in the very beginning stages of the room, the Hanging Rattan Chair from Serena & Lily will absolutely set the tone! It's playful, well made, and cozy- especially when paired with the linen cushion which I have to say is so much prettier and substantial in person than it looks on the site!

Today I'm wrapping up the pantry project by sharing how we built the shelves.

Here's how we built our corner pantry shelves (and skip to the bottom if you're just here for all the sources!):
