Rental Home Refresh: My Furniture & Decor Purchases

March 26, 2020 By houseofhargrove@gmail.com

We have the cutest rental home lined up that we will be living in for about a year while we build our new home.  I cannot wait to share all the details with you (coming soon).  I am starting to take inventory of our current home and what we are keeping, selling, giving away, etc.  We will be selling several items from our current home, but also need a few new pieces for the rental.  There are so many good sales going on right now so it is a perfect time to shop.  Here are some of the items I purchased this week.  These are super budget friendly and beautiful.  Cannot wait to get them all set up in our rental and share them with you.

 

In our current home we have a mantle that I turned into a headboard in both Avery’s Room and our Guest room.  I love them, but I will be selling them when we move.  I needed some new beds for these rooms.  

BED FOR AVERY’S ROOM:

I found the cutest white metal bed for Avery’s room.  I absolutely love it.  It looks like something from Restoration Hardware, but a fraction of the price!  It has a sweet vintage, shabby chic feel to it that I just love.  Our rental home is a farmhouse  with tons of charm.  The rooms are cute with lots of natural light, but the windows have unusual placement for furniture.  I wanted a bed that had slats since it will be placed in front of a window.  I didn’t want to block any of the natural light.  I am so excited about this bed.  I think it is just the cutest and ONLY $239 with amazing reviews!!

BED FOR GUEST ROOM:

I needed another open slat bed in our guest room since the bed will be in front of a window here too.  I LOVE the bed we got for Braden’s room.  It is a dark bronze industrial/vintage bed and its perfect.  I ended up getting the exact same bed for the guest room.  It is such a classic design and great price!  It comes in several color options, but I went for the same dark bronze finish.  Braden’s room is a full size and the guest room is a queen size.  When we move to the new house I have a different guest room design in mind so I will probably switch Bradens bed to the queen and sell his full one.

RUG FOR MASTER BEDROOM:

Both our rental home and our new home will have wood floors in our master bedroom.  I need a rug in that room and I FELL IN LOVE with this one.  I think it is so gorgeous.  I love the design, the colors and the fringe border.   Again, it reminds me of something from Restoration Hardware, but a fraction of the price!  I cannot wait to get this rug!!  Such an amazing deal.  I got a 9×12 for less than $300!!

This rug is sold on 3 different sites and the prices change.  Check all of these for the best price.

KITCHEN LIGHT:

I needed a new light over the kitchen island in our rental.  I don’t love the one they have there.  I was looking for something that would put out a lot of light and was a great price.  I found this one and it is exactly what I was looking for.  I love the mixed metals, that it has 5 bulbs and was less than $200.  Also has great reviews.  Personally, I will be removing the glass pieces around the lights.  I just think it looks better.

 

I am so excited about all these deals.  Hopefully you found some things furniture and home decor you love too!

When designing our home the kitchen was such an important space. We spend a lot of time in there. I wanted it to be beautiful and functional. Here are some of my favorite features in our kitchen.

I’ve been on the hunt for faux flowers for my outdoor pots and I finally found a winner!!

🌸 comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links

I kept spending lots of money each season on real flowers and it was so much work keeping them alive!

I was looking for a better option and finally found one!

These faux flowers are
•BEAUTIFUL ....always in bloom
•ZERO MAINTENANCE ...no watering, fertilizing, etc
•BUDGET FRIENDLY ...these are priced great and you don’t have to replace them each season
•AND LOOK REAL. Some faux flowers are bad!! These really look good and unless you dig in there you’d never know they are faux

Each pack comes in a bundle of 2 bunches. Each bunch has 7 stems. You can plant 2 ways and I tried both. You can plant the bundle attached together and bend the stems (they are wired) to spread everything out....or....you can cut the bundles apart and plant the stems individually. I ended up doing that and thought they looked more realistic that way.  I ended up using 5 packages (10 bunches) for 2 large pots and 1 smaller pot.

I share both ways on IG stories so you can see the difference.

I also removed some soil and added floral foam blocks beneath, recovered with dirt and stuck the flowers in them.  I don’t think this step was necessary, but I wanted to make sure they were in there firm.

I’m so excited I now get to enjoy beautiful flowers with zero work 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Last year, Geoff and I added wires up this wall in a diamond trellis pattern. We planted creeping fig, but unfortunately, it all died this winter. I just planted Star Jasmine in its place so really hoping it survives. Texas weather is hard!. Thanks to a little AI magic I was able to create what my ultimate vision is. Fingers crossed it will look like this in a couple of years.

I just learned that May 3 is World Naked Gardening Day 🤣 I seriously can’t believe there is a day dedicated to this, but maybe lots of people need fences 🤷🏼‍♀️😉🌱🌿

I love this potting bench addition we did to our garage last year. Inexpensive upgrade that is pretty and functional!

Yall I recently discovered you could make fun art on ChatGPT using your own images for free! @ciarakenaston inspired me with her Beatrix Potter images and I did a deep dive and found you can do so many cool things!

🩵 Download ChatGPT if you haven’t already and have fun!

Upload an image. Can be of your home, your family, etc and then type in prompts to have it alter your image. You can play around with it and try all kinds of things but here were my prompts for the video

1. Beatrix Potter inspired illustration
2. Jan Brett inspired illustration
3. Vintage oil painting
4. E.H. Shepard inspired illustration 
5. Retro British cottage core style

If you do some be sure to share and tag me. I’d love to see them. Endless possibilities!!

We are busy getting ready for spring over here! #ad We found everything we needed at Lowe’s. The Spring Garden Picks collection on Lowes.com was a great starting point. From mulch & fertilizer, garden tools, flowers, planters & decor to blowers & power washers…Lowe’s is a 1 stop shop! Sharing all my finds! Bring on this amazing season!
