Simple Fall Decor For Your Bedroom | Office
Friday, September 28, 2018
Hello Everyone! Welcome to style me bright blog. If this is your
first time reading one of my blog posts, Welcome! I'm glad you hear and lets
just be friends!
Can you believe it’s already fall?
The time this year has just been flying by and I'm not complaining. The fall season
is one of the best seasons, but honestly, I can’t pick a favorite. The fall and
winter in Arizona, is always beautiful. When this time of year comes around, I
know we are all excited. We start ordering pumpkin spice lattes, we buy the
cinnamon scented pinecones, fall just gives us an all-around cozy vibe.
Today I wanted to show you all
a few simple and easy ways to make your room a little more fall appropriate. On
a small budget. I know some of us don’t have huge homes or tons of space. A lot
of people have small apartments or they have roommates. so, this is the perfect
option for someone who doesn’t want to go all out for fall but also has a small
space.
Random Tip:
Focusing on the spaces in your home
or office that you gravitate towards more, will make it easier when decorating
your space. I tend to spend a lot of time in my office/ desk area. That is
why I chose this space to decorate. Find the area in your space you like the
most and decorate it.

ADDING A GARLAND
Adding a simple garland on your
shelf or dresser, is one way to add that fall season into your space. It’s
pretty and bright and just screams FALL IS HERE! Its also very long and adds
color to a empty space. Picking a garland that has more leaves and is fuller
will look the best. The brighter the better! but there are also more neutral
options as well. This garland was on sale at Michaels.
USING THINGS AROUND YOUR HOME
I already had this small wooden
box that was just sitting around, so I added that. Wood can really warm up a
look and add texture. I already had the green faux plant as well as the picture
frame.
PICTURES
Google has some great images
for fall inspired pictures as well as Pinterest. You can incorporate fall into
any room or space just by changing out the pictures to be more fall. Some
examples could be leaves, fall sayings, or camping. I liked having my simple pictures
in the back and just adding a slash of fall pictures, but you can do what works
for you.
The frames I purchased at micheals and then printed the pictures to add to them.

Random Tip:
Make sure when you print
pictures to use glossy photo paper, that way the images look professional and
neat.
FLOWERS
I love real flowers, they are
just gorgeous and smell amazing. You can add real flowers and faux flowers,
both look amazing and add a nice contrast to your space.
THE LITTLE THINGS
The small pumpkins or fall scented candles can tie a space together
nicely! Even adding a wood tray to put everything on adds texture and looks
great.
I love my little small space with a few fall décor. I hope you
enjoyed this post and let me know what you decided to do in your space for
fall.
Until Next Time
XOXO

A Simple Ikea Hack | Mid Century Modern Kallax
Wednesday, August 29, 2018
I AM beyond excited at how this little DIY came out. I am currently in the process of creating the style I want in my space. Ive been pinning on pinterest like crazy trying to create the right inspiration. I love the mid century modern look. Its clean, simple, but also so much flare and excitement. This simple little DIY took maybe 15 minutes and adds a whole new look to my space.
FURNITURE LEGS
I found the small furniture legs on amazon of course. And I got a great deal on them because I had so many amazon rewards points. [see those things really do come in handy] I will link where I got these below. They had many ariations of mid century modern table legs. I just went for a more neutral wood tone but they also have a dark wood tone as well.
THE INSTALL
Start by attaching the metal square anchors into the shelf. Next you will be able to screw on the legs. Super simple and easy to install. When I first got these I thought oh no the screw attacheted to the leg was to long, but no worries. The more you keep srewing the leg in the screw actually gets shorter because it just screws back into the leg.
I'm going for a mid century modern meets palm springs meets Arizona feel in my space. If you follow me on instagram you may have seen my mood board in a recent picture. I found these really awesome cactus prints online just by googling "cactus palm springs free picture" They're great quality and they printed so smooth and glossy.
Everything that I tied into this space is all from the mood board. I wanted to incoporate different colors and textures. Before my space was very white and simple but also had no definition.
I love the way this simple DIY came out. I actually feel like I can do more. I hope you enjoyed it and send me pictures If you decide to spice up your ikea kallax.

Jewlery Organization With The Container Store
Monday, February 19, 2018
There's nothing like getting new organization products that actually do their job. ORGANIZE! It took me a while to figure out different organization systems for my rings, bracelets, etc. I've tried decorative boxes, cute plates, pretty much anything you can think of.
I came across these amazing organization products ( At My Favorite Store Ever) perfect for my jewelry! Drum Roll Please....None other than THE CONTAINER STORE!
The container store has some of the best organization products from your office to your kitchen all the way to travel essentials.
The First Organizer I purchased was this white/wood necklace and bracelet holder. I saw It on the shelf and thought it was just perfect for the minimal amount of necklaces and bracelets I have.
YAMAZAKI TOSCA ACCESSORY STAND
The next organizing product was this acrylic drawer organizer. the good thing about this organizer is I can add multiple layers and make it and entire makeup/jewelry organizer. It's great for keeping all my studs in individual compartments. I even have a few other trinkets as well.
New Year | New Space | New Decor Inspiration
Saturday, December 9, 2017
Well I Moved!! Yayyyy!! I love the space I moved to, it literally has so much space. I went from a smaller room with a larger closet, to a larger room with a smaller closet. But Hey, Beggers cants be choosers right, and I just cant get over this space and what I plan on doing with it. So today I wanted to share with you some ideas for the new space.
If your ever struggling to create the setting you want in your room. Look no further because Pinterest is your best friend!!! It has pages and pages of topics from life hacks to bedroom decor and food recipes. All under one roof from people just like you. If your ever in the need of a little inspiration. Pinterest is the key. Okay now on to my style.
I'm currently leaning towards more of a sleek white look, with touches of wood and texture. But still keeping my flare of {style me bright} if you know what I mean. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE LOVE LOVE COLOR! but I may be leaning towards something different. We shall see.
I might just keep my bright white them with hints of color. But for now here is the inspiration I'm going for, but with a little color lol

And as for now my bedroom and office are in the same space so I want a style that can mesh with both my sleeping area as well as my working area. But maybe down the line I'll create a super colorful office!! That's definitely a plan in the works.
THE CLOSET
I love the bright white, with hints of gray and wood

How I Style My Bedside Cart
Wednesday, August 2, 2017
Well Hello There!
Hope you all are well and happy! Ive been going back and fourth with how I wanted to style my bedside cart. I always knew I wanted a cart next to my bed, ever since I trolled Pinterest and saw how cute they were. I originally had this cart in my bathroom, then I used it for my desk/craft area and it finally ended up as my beside cart. I have to say I completely love having this. I use it to prop up my laptop or phone when I want to watch Hulu plus. I can roll it over and use it as an eating tray if I wanted to. It's so versatile and on TOP of that it is the cutest!!! color {Turquoise.}
I wanted the top to be easy access so I included some pens and some of MY frequently accessed notebooks. [Little secret] about this notebook on top. It actually came black and white and I penciled in the color, It came out surprisingly good, in my opinion. I also keep my water here because at night I always always get thirsty. Who else gets super thirsty at night?!
This small wire basket is from target, it was only 3 dollars (in the dollar section) and you can use it to store small things you want next to your bed (chap stick, lotion etc) and this white vase and the faux flowers are from Ikea.
Second row is most of my books, the books that I'm currently reading are in another spot but these are just where I keep them.
Third shelf I added these bright yellow acrylic boxes that I purchased from the container store. They were actually on super clearance and I got them for 6 dollars and they are originally 20 something. I was so happy because I really wanted these every time I went there. (Which was every other weekend)
P.S They are empty. Let me know if you have any suggestions on what I should put in them. I had spare notepads and pens in them before but that just wasn't working for me.
And there it is, my simple bed side cart! I hope you get inspired and share some tips on how you style your cart in the comments below. Happy Organizing and Decorating!

DIY Sparkling Glitter Box
Wednesday, June 7, 2017
I have such an obsession/ love for decorative boxes. I use them all the time to keep organized. The decorative box section is always first on my list when I go shopping. I always see some of the most adorable ones in the stores, so I thought why not DIY my own. I love glitter! I know for some people it drives them crazy, not me, I love it. It reminds me of such a happy sparkly place.
What You Need:
Elmer's Spray Adhesive
Glitter
Plain Box
The Elmer's Spray Adhesive, is a really good spray adhesive, I've used this for other fun projects in the past and its definitely a good one.
Of course you can't make a Glitter Box without Glitter. I purchased this huge pack from target. I loved it because of all the colors it had, and PLUS the bottles are glass, so totally {reusable!!!}
I purchased this plain white photo box from Joann's Fabrics.
Lets Get Started...
1. Make sure you cover your surface, you don't want glue everywhere!!
2. Spray a thin layer of Elmer's Spray Adhesive on the top portion of the box lid
*You may want to wear gloves, I didn't and lets just say my hands were filled with glitter. #lessonlearned
3. Gently and lightly sprinkles the glitter on top (make sure you don't pile on to much glitter at a time, it will create clumps, trust me)
Don't forget to spray and glitter the edges as well
4. I let the first layer dry for about 30minutes to an hour, I like to make sure the glue is really dry and set. Then if you want a more dramatic look you can add a second layer of glitter.
5. I spray the finished look with the Elmer's Adhesive Spray to set in all the glitter, and let this dry for an hour or longer.
*Be sure to shake of any extra glitter to prevent clumping.
When your finished your left with this beautiful sparkling glitter box!!
Until Next Time XOXO
