10+ Rustic Modern Rooms

Lately, I have been feeling a constant draw towards Rustic Modern design. I think it blends nicely with my love for Antique with Modern and really gives the best of both world when decorating.

I've been moving right along with our master bedroom update and this past weekend we were able to tackle the nightstands and lighting.

Happy Vintage Desk & Chair

*I was compensated for this post with supplies, however all content, thoughts and opinions are my own.
 
Happy Monday everyone! We have had a whirlwind of a few days around here filled with IKEA shopping in Connecticut, museum visiting at Harvard, furniture hunting at thrift stores and more.
 
In between all of the craziness I painted this cute desk and chair. It seriously makes me smile.

Building a Creatively Made Business 2.0 (eCourse)

Hey there blogging friends! Late last year I was given a fantastic opportunity to become a monthly contributor over at Jennifer Rizzo.com. I'm forever grateful to Jen and working with her has truly been an amazing experience. She is so filled with creativity and ideas!
 
So, a couple of weeks ago when she mentioned to me that the new eCourse Building a Creatively Made Business 2.0 was going to begin this spring with her, Jeanne Oliver and Marian Parsons I knew I had to be part of it.
 
As a relatively new blogger, I am always striving to learn more to perfect my brand and build the best blog and business that I can.  Did you know that I started Number Fifty-Three completely on a whim? Because I did. And, that's just one of the reasons why I think this class is calling my name...

Painted Vintage Headboard & Updated Bedding

Remember how at the beginning of the year I said it was enough of me constantly sharing our entry, living room and dining room? (In all reality it was actually my Mom who told me I really needed to branch out and start finishing rooms in the rest of my home.) And, despite completely rearranging my entry and living room and tweaking my dining room last week (old habits die hard) I have been setting goals and achieving results.

Easy DIY Wood Succulent Planter

Monday again! I hope you all had a fantastic Easter. Ours was chill and relaxed, just like I wanted. I made brunch, which ended up being a late lunch because, as much as I love to cook, I never start the entire process early enough.
Anyway, you all know our home is filled with plants.  They bring such life and warmth to a room and really add a perfect finishing layer to a design.
