Expert Advice for this time of year - Home Edition

I am so glad you all enjoyed meeting Meg and loved all of her gift ideas.  If you missed it, just click here to catch up.

Today is all about gifts for the home.  And we have another special guest.  Today, I enlisted the help of a home decor expert.  Please meet Dionne

I can remember going to Dionne's home shortly after she married.  I remember walking around her home and thinking "oh wow this is better than Pottery Barn".  I gotta tell you she'd been married less than a month, but she had decorated and furnished their home beautifully.  I took my old married self home and tried to spruce up our place.  This girl has the best taste and I just love how she puts things together.  

I asked her to give us some Mother's Day ideas and here is what she came up with

First up, a personalized bar necklace

Personalized Bar Necklace

Isn't that cute.  Every mom loves her kiddos names on anything.  Just think this works for moms of furbabies too.

Next check out this temperature control ceramic mug
Ember Temp Control Mug

You get to set your perfect drinking temperature and enjoy the perfect beverage from first to last sip.  If you have a coffee or tea lover on your list.....here you go.

Then she recommended this lovely book
Book

This sweet book is hardcover and has 64 pages.  You simply fill it in according to the writing prompts,  honestly, what mom wouldn't love this?

Next up these beautiful napkin rings

round copper napkin rings
Magnolia Market Napkin Rings

These come in this beautiful copper or a gold. They are simple and classic and would work with any decor.



And now if you have a wedding coming up, consider these ideas

CorkGlobeROF16
CB2 Globe
First a cork globe.....yes, a cork globe.  You put the little push pins in to indicate where you have travelled.  I think it would be fun to use one color push pin for places you have been and another color for places you want to go.  I am so glad Dionne found this one for us.....too cute.

Next up,
PB Classic Terry Bath Robe
Matching Robes

How wonderful do these look.  They are Turkish Cotton, lined in a soft terry cloth and are begging for a lazy Saturday morning. Yes, Dionne, these rock! And the color selection is really enticing.

Lastly, Dionne recommends a fun surprise for the new couple
Floating Frames
Floating Frame
She suggest having a special photo printed on archival paper and frame it in one of these beautiful floating frames.  It is minimalistic so should go with any decor.  You can choose the brass (pictured) or a black stud finish.  It also comes in 10 different sizes.  These are just so pretty.

Well there you go some great ideas from Dionne.  A big thanks to her for sharing these fun ideas with us.  Make sure you click on some of the links and browse about.  One of my favorite things is for someone to introduce me to a new shopping site.  Dionne has led me to new territory with many of these and I am all in.  I do love a new place to click about.

Thanks, Dionne, come share with us any time you'd like.  We have loved having  you here.
Oh and if you want to find her she's on instagram at  _dwinteriors.  She does home decor and event planning and it is ALL just lovely.

Come back on Friday for the Style edition.  I have had a sneak peek and you don't want to miss it.

See you on Friday.
