Lately I’ve been completely obsessed with all things gold-dipped.  That touch of gold adds just enough glamour – transforming an ordinary object into something fabulous. The best part? Many times it’s a simple DIY project!

Here are a few of my faves… enjoy!

DIY pipe-and-wood desk

Absolutely loving the look of this! I don’t need a desk, but I DO need to try this project… anyone else need a desk?

Looking to brighten your day?  A little bit of yellow might be just what the doctor ordered.  My favorite thing about yellow… it demands to be seen! Now I’m not recommending wall-to-wall or head-to-toe yellow; just a few pieces to add some interest.

Here are just a few ways to accessorize with yellow.

1. Tempaper Honeycomb Wallpaper; 2Modern | 2. Kendra Scott ‘Danielle’ Statement Earrings; Nordstrom | 3. Hope 3-Drawer Side Table; One Kings Lane | 4. Upholstered Ottoman; Layla Grayce | 5. Striped Rug; Posh Tots | 5. Equipment ‘Adriana’ Silk Blouse; Piperlime

Well, it’s a new year. Time for fresh starts and getting back to basics. And if you’re looking for something that’s basic and fresh, look no further than the classics. Not your mother’s classics, these pieces are simple yet elegant and full of style.

20130104-221008.jpg {1. Chandelier – West Elm | 2. KORS Michael Kors stiletto – Neiman Marcus | 3. Landon Armchair – Pottery Barn | 4. Translucent Glass Desk – Horchow | 5. White Button-Down Shirt – J Crew | 6. Ottoman – Zinc Door}

Do you have a favorite classic fashion or design piece?

Happy New Year!

…looking back

2012 was a great year! I’ll remember it most as the year I launched homerandruth.com and the year my hubby and I learned that we’re expecting our first child!

looking forward…

First and foremost, I’m looking forward to meeting my daughter in April!!! Between working full-time and growing a little baby inside of me, I haven’t had as much energy as I’d like to create new posts for you to enjoy. It’s definitely one of my new years resolutions to dedicate more time to keeping all of you up to date. I mean… I’ll definitely have to show you the nursery that I’ve just started concepting. I promise not to turn this into a complete “mommy-blog”, but I’m sure my content will evolve which is what life’s all about.

That’s all for now. Wishing everyone a beautiful and blessed 2013!
