ART C/O MINTED

"Dominant Spirit" || "Cactus at Sunset" || "Rusty Patina" || "Tropical Still Life" || "From a Table in Carolina" || "Happy Inside" 

This time last year, we were house hunting and we were under contract for a different home.  After many sleepless nights and much negotiation, we decided to back out of the contract and continue our new home search.  This decision ended up being THE BEST decision we could have possibly made.  

Not too long after we were back in the market, the most perfect home was listed and within hours we not only saw the home but we put in an offer and it was accepted, YAY!  Everything worked out just as it was supposed to and we found the right home for our family.  Pretty sure I was reminded every day that patience and faith was so important to maintain in stressful times.

I share all of this because we are approaching almost 1 year since we closed and moved into our new home!  Boy has this past year flown by.  We remember everything as if it were yesterday and we feel so fortunate to have had one AMAZING year together as a family in a home that we love so much...our home!

It has taken us a while to decorate and decide on furniture and other pieces, such as artwork, that we want for our home.  We decided early on that we would take our time and not buy things just to fill space...we would be selective and deliberate with our purchases.

We still have a long way to go but we are making progress and we just love how it is all coming together!  

Family photos, art on the walls, and accessories have helped make our home feel more "homey".  Minted has been my go-to destination for artwork...I love their selection and the variety of prints and frames that they offer.  I'm pretty certain artwork from Minted will adorn many of the walls in our home.

Two of my favorite recent additions are "Dominant Spirit" and "Cactus at Sunset".  I absolutely adore horses (no I don't have one but hope to one day) and I've always wanted a beautiful art print in our home.  "Dominant Spirit" was my favorite from Minted and I've named her Lola! 

I also picked "Cactus at Sunset" as it is a nod to our time living in Phoenix, AZ before we moved to Nashville.  We lived in Phoenix for 5 years and both of our children were born there so it has a special place in our hearts.

There are just so many prints that I love and I cannot wait to pick out more Minted artwork for other rooms in our home!  I'm already deciding on which room I will work on next.  We have a library and I envision and entire wall covered in art so I'm thinking I need to start adding one piece at a time.

If you are looking for artwork for your home, you must check out Minted.  I'm certain you will find pieces that will also be perfect to adorn the walls of your home!

As always, thanks so much for stopping by...hope you have a great day!

Dining Room Decor with Minted Art

I've been excited to share today's post for some time and to give you all a peek into our new home.  When we started our home search, we knew that it was going to be out with the old and in with the new...literally.  We decided to sell most of our furniture and almost all of our accessories, including any art that we had.  

We simply planned for a "fresh start" with a home that was a blank slate, giving us the opportunity to take our time decorating and making it our own.  Many times you pick your furniture first and then accessorize a room with art and other pieces.  But I've done things a little bit backwards for our dining room.  First the art and then the furniture.  

Picking out art for our dining room was such an enjoyable process and I am grateful that Minted helped guide me along the way.  I've always heard such wonderful things about Minted however, I've never shopped for art on their site.  I probably spent hours looking at all of the beautiful artwork by various Artists and I was beyond impressed with their selection.

Because of the color scheme that we decided on, I was able to narrow down my favorite pieces to a group of about 10 and then finally narrow it down to these three gorgeous pieces of art.  I fell in love with Linger by Sarah McInroe...this piece just spoke to me, it is so so beautiful.  Slopes and Inner Nature were the two pieces that I felt complimented Linger so well and that tied in all of the colors.  It just felt as if these three pieces of art were meant to be together.

Although we don't have any dining room furniture yet, we had to go ahead and hang our art, we were just to excited not to.  There is so much that I envision for our dining room and we can't wait to see it continue to come to life over time.  Next up for this room...a table and chairs. ;-)

Minted was so wonderful to work with.  Again, the selection is amazing and they take great pride in offering the best and ensuring that your pieces arrive to you in perfect condition.  We will be on the hunt for more pieces for our library (I plan to create an entire gallery wall) and I know we will be using Minted again!

Looking forward to sharing more peeks into our home as we fill our space and decorate each room over time.  There is so much to be done but it will be a marathon to the finish, not a sprint, so stay tuned.

As always, thanks so much for stopping by!
