Modern Farmhouse Storage Baskets with Wayfair

Modern Farmhouse Storage Baskets with Wayfair // Wayfair Storage Solutions // Wayfair Storage Baskets

This post is a part of a recent collaboration with Wayfair. All photos, words, and opinions are my own. Please see the disclosure on my about page for more information.

Modern Farmhouse Storage Baskets with Wayfair

As you can probably imagine as a stylist and home blogger, I have a pretty big hoarding-all-the-home-decor problem. More specifically though, I have a give-me-all-the-baskets-and-vases problem. Not to mention, there’s nothing that drives me and my OCD tendencies crazier than an unorganized and cluttered bookshelf.

Essentially, today’s blog post is about how I had given up on the bookshelf in my office and how Wayfair ended up saving the day (and my sanity.) In attempt to bring this little office nook to life and make it a mini space of inspiration as I walked through the door each day, I needed something to tackle the chaos. Thankfully, that’s where Wayfair came in. Wayfair challenged several bloggers to reorganize a space in their home using Wayfair’s storage bins, boxes, and baskets – and I don’t think that I could have accepted fast enough. Not only is Wayfair next to Homegoods as one of my favorite sources for home decor shopping, but it also has some of the best prices. You know what that means? Money saved to spend on more home decor. (But, don’t tell my husband that part!)

See the Before & After Below!

Before

When it comes to being a certified wedding planner, designer, and blogger, my office is typically where most of my time is spent behind the scenes. When I am constantly on the go with client meetings, this bookshelf in my office is always used as a catch-all for all the day-to-day happenings of running my blog and business. In turn, the bookshelf was cluttered, busy, and extremely unorganized. It was overwhelming every time I would even look at it. To be honest, this before photo was on a really good day. Like, one of those parents-are-dropping-in-and-you-want-to-show-that-you-actually-clean type of good days. I can promise you it didn’t wake up that way, and it’s definitely not flawless.

After

I purchased the Shore Thing Basket Set to each organize my magazine features, office supplies, and other day-to-day essentials as well as the Seagrass Basket with Handles to add in a cozy touch. (Who doesn’t have throws in their office for mornings with coffee?) One thing I took into consideration with this challenge was that I didn’t want to add too many baskets to the bookshelf. That’s because it would still look cluttered and defeat the purpose of it all. In this case, less was definitely going to be more!

Needless to say, I absolutely love how it turned out. It’s functional yet styled well, and the natural texture of the seagrass baskets definitely pops against the white and gray of my home’s heart. Not to mention, there’s a huge change to the feeling this little office nook puts off. It just goes to show how some simple storage baskets and minor organization can completely give a new vibe to a space! Say goodbye to the messy catch-all and hello to some peace of mind!

One thing that failed me during this challenge was definitely my will power. While searching for the baskets I wanted to use on the bookshelf in my office, I couldn’t help but fall down the Wayfair rabbit hole and plan out upcoming projects I want to do to add to the design of our new home. Check out my ‘wish list’ below of items that are currently in my online shopping cart – and one click away from being in my own home! The best part? Wayfair is having a sale right now of up to 70% off with their July Blowout Sale. Get. That.

    The baskets are so cute! I am the same way about bookshelves being unorganized, it is just so much nicer to not have clutter! I also love that your dog is in one of the photos. 🙂

The furniture for the study finally came in, and I was SO excited to see how perfect everything looks in here. Hands down my favorite room in the house. 😍👏🏼 Real talk: I can’t wait to curl up in here with a cup of coffee and a book while my kids destroy the house around me. 🫠🤷🏼‍♀️😂 #ahostinghome

Spring gardening is right around the corner, and I Spring gardening is right around the corner, and I’m already starting to get ours prepped thanks to @walmart Lawn and Garden! #AD With a newborn and a toddler, running errands can be quite the task. But thanks to #WalmartLawnandGarden, I’ve been able to get everything I need to kickstart our garden this year in one place — from the convenience of snuggling my babies on my couch with Walmart.com and the app! The time it saved me from running all over town, I got to spend making core memories with John as we taught him how to start his very first set of seeds in the @jiffygroup seed starting tray. 

Here’s a look at what we got to kickstart our garden this year:
- The @jiffygroup Seed Starting Greenhouse Kit: to grow our own seedlings and get a head start on the season by starting them indoors! 
- The  @ferrymorseseed Seed Starting Heat Mat: to give our seeds the best chance possible to promote germination and improve transplant results 
- Ferry Morse Seeds (flowers, tomatoes, and peppers!) 
- @pennington Rejuvenate Potting Mix and Garden Soil: to give our seedlings the nutrients they need once transplanted into our garden 
- Pennington Rejuvenate Tomato Plant Food
- @scottslawn Landscaping Fabric: to keep our garden clean and free of pesky weeds
- The @flexonhose Flextreme Advanced 100ft Hose: to keep it all watered without fighting kinks as we move easily around our raised garden beds

Add this kit to your cart now ➡️ https://click2cart.com/59600bc

Get a jumpstart on your spring and summer garden this year by shopping everything you need at Walmart, in-store or online at Walmart.com. And stay tuned to see how our garden comes together and grows this year!

The best part? Can rotate and charge with all our other Dewalt tool batteries.

January 20th, 2023 💛

James was born last Friday morning, and spent the first 5 days in the NICU for some breathing issues and fluid in his lungs. While those days were extremely rough, trying, and brought back a lot of emotions from Layne’s birth — God is so good, and my heart is just overwhelmed by His faithfulness. My favorite moment in life thus far was surprising John before bedtime the night we were finally discharged to come home. I’ll never forget the look on his face when I walked through that door. Thank you, Jesus, for my babies. 🦋💛 #ahostinghome

✨ STUDY REVEAL ✨ I got a lot of nervous respon ✨ STUDY REVEAL ✨ I got a lot of nervous responses when I said I wanted to design an all black formal study right off my entryway, but I’m completely obsessed with every detail of this space. Rob has always wanted a study, so my goal with this space when it’s finished is to have almost like a moody, swanky cigar lounge feel. When we moved into this house this spring, I told Rob I was done playing it “safe for resale” with designing projects. Here’s to more of doing whatever the heck I want design wise in 2023! 👏🏼✨ Next up: let’s get this space styled and furnished! #ahostinghome

“And with that, the 2022 season comes to an end. “And with that, the 2022 season comes to an end.” ✨🎄 When do you take your Christmas decor down? The Christmas decor got put away earlier this week, and the house always feels so empty every year when it gets taken down! I was going to wait till next week to take it down, but with only 3 weeks left until baby arrives I’m finding myself in total nesting mode right now. Behind the scenes we’ve been putting finishing touches on the study while Rob was off work for Christmas, so I’ll be sharing all the photos and updates on that to the feed soon. In the meantime, who wants to come organize closets and baby stuff with me?! 😜 #ahostinghome
