If you're anything like me and are constantly hungry/on the verge of hangry, this filling quinoa bowl will definitely put in you in a better state. I like to make these for lunch because they aren't super heavy and don't land me in a comatose state around 2pm, but they have just enough grains and greens to keep me satisfied all afternoon...

So excited about this rich shade of green making an appearance everywhere lately! In kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, on front doors and even bathtubs. I can't get enough.

COLOR STORY: DUSTY ROSE
Has anyone else become obsessed with Dusty Rose lately? No? Just me? Okay, well I can't help myself. I'm not a big "pink" person, but there is something about the edginess that this hue brings to modern spaces that just kills me. I especially love it when styled amidst dark gray and blue tones. It's...dare I say...almost a neutral...

EASY KILIM BENCH DIY
If you follow us on Instagram you'll know that recently Mika and I made a kilim bench bench for our bedroom and we love it so much!! We needed something to fill the space along the wall next to our bed, and because our room is so neutral, we decided we wanted a pop of color to brighten things up. Enter the idea for a cheery colored kilim bench with hairpin legs to tie in a bit of that midcentury vibe. Once we had all the supplies it took us a couple hours (max) to put the whole thing together. If we could do it, you can easily do it too :)

MUDCLOTH PATTERN PAINTED POT DIY
I am a huge fan of the vintage mudcloth pattern that seems to be popping up everywhere lately! I haven’t been able to find a way to seamlessly incorporate it into our home…until now. We wanted to add a couple cool plants to our front porch and I found these awesome terracotta pots at Ikea for a couple bucks and decided they would look awesome when painted with the mudcloth pattern. It was so so easy that I decided to share the DIY here so that you can make them too!
