Target Tuesday Halloween Edition

10/24/2017

4 Comments

 
Hello Everyone, I can't believe it has been one week since I started this new blog series! Time definitely flies by quickly. I have been busy decorating my house for Halloween as we are hosting our second Annual Halloween Party. Last year was a great success so I am hoping we can make this year even better! Unfortunately, I can't show you my decor just yet as I want it to be a surprise to all our guests but I will make sure to share with you once the party happens ;)
Ok, this week I am bringing you Halloween decor from Target. I was there a couple weeks ago and I wanted to take everything home, they have the best Halloween decorations at amazing prices! You can find out more information on my favourite items by clicking on the images below.

Here are my favourite top 10:

Halloween Lefesize Posable Skeleton
I have two of this Lifesize Posable Skeletons and  absolutely love them! I usually place them on our roof top, positioned as if they were trying to break into the window and they look fantastic!
​

Halloween animated haunted TV
What about this awesome Haunted TV? The face will move forward and stretch the fabric as if it was going to come out of the screen... Pretty scary!!!
Halloween Animated doorbell with eyeball
This animated eyeball doorbell will add a spooky look to any door. Another one of my favourite items to add to my house for Halloween.
Halloween Skeleton Wolf
The skeleton wolf is another one of my favourite halloween decor items. It is just so cool, the head is movable side to side and the jaw opens and closes so you can choose how you want to pose it and is 27.5" tall!
Halloween rotating movie projector with sound and LED bulbs
Halloween White Pumpkin with gold studs
This rotating movie projector is awesome, I saw it when I was at Target last time and I wanted to take it with me. It projects rotating skulls and ghosts as it makes realistic projector sounds!
Halloween Premium Snake Tombstone
How funny is this tombstone? I think is so cool and it totally made me laugh when I saw it!
I love white pumpkins, add a little bling to it and you got yourself the best pumpkin ever! it also comes in black and two different sizes. To see the black versionclick here.
Halloween Hanging Candelabra
Definitely one of my favourite decorations to add to my haunted house, it looks so nice and it adds a bit of tasteful spookiness to my decor.
Halloween pre-lit artificial willow tree
Nothing like a 6 ft tall willow tree to add a bit of fun to your outside decorations, this tree comes pre-lit with small orange lights all down the branches. It looks really cool at night.
Halloween Giant Spider
You can't do halloween decorations without adding a giant spider or several spiders big and small around your home. This year I am so excited, I made an amazing spider web using beef netting and added a few giant spiders on it for my outdoor decorations. Can't wait to show you next time!!
I have to say, choosing only 10 of my favourite items to share with you for the Target Tuesday Halloween Edition was a bit hard.  I love Halloween and Target has tons of amazing Halloween decor items to choose from,  Make sure to stop by the store if you are near one or check their website for all of their available items online. 
Hope you have a wonderful Halloween Everyone!!  Happy Decorating :)

TARGET TUESDAY

Target makes me happy. I don't know what it is about Target but I honestly feel instantly happy when I make my way across the border just to shop there. Another thing I love to do is shop online. I find they have a much larger selection to choose from than what you would find in store. Since I love Target so much, (and honestly who doesn't?) I have decided to bring you my favourite finds every Tuesday and call it Target Tuesday!! 
​What do you think? Sounds fun right? So, lets get started with our first Target Tuesday :)
Picture
This lamp is to die for!! I am absolutely ordering one of these lamps for my home. Everything is right about this lamp; the price, the colours, the materials, you name it... $130.80 CAD
​I'm in!! It also comes in black, silver and gold.

Bar Cart Styling

10/15/2017

Bar carts are super trendy right now, personally I love them! I just got one for my home and had so much fun putting it all together! There are so many different ways you can do it and the best part is, you can change it as often as you want to transition into the different seasons.

This trend is all about having fun and adding some of your personality to the cart. I love gold and this is why I opted for a gold cart and mostly golden accents. Being from Mexico I had to add a cool bottle of Tequila and my favourite St. Germain liqueur along with those mini bottles of Botega Gold.

So have fun, play around and don't be afraid as you can't really go wrong with it. This is what I did with mine.

Here is what you will need:

The Cart
Glasses with a personality
Flowers or topiary (fresh or faux)
Funky Straws
Coasters & Napkins
Decanter
Drinks
Something Quirky
Art Work

Thank you for visiting and Happy Bar Cart Styling!!

Hello and Happy Tuesday! For all of you who are from Canada, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving weekend. I had an amazing Thanksgiving dinner with all our family and closest friends and I think I'm still full from all the turkey I ate.
Now is time to get back to work, I thought I'd write a post with my favourite barstools out there. I have been searching for the perfect options to show my clients and while I was looking I came across some really nice ones and wanted to share with you.
Check out my top 10 designs right here:

1. Ariana Swivel Barstool

The tufted back and silver studs add great detail, the grey colour is very soft and settled and I love the fact that it swivels which is a big plus for me!!

10. Imperial Sheepskin Barstool

Gold and Sheepskin? It couldn't get any better than that! I love this combo and I love the look of this barstool. Again the price is a bit on the higher end but the good news...  is 25% off until October 14.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

10/7/2017

Happy Thanksgiving! We are hosting our Thanksgiving dinner today and there are a list of things to do to prepare our home for the family gathering. 
My husband and I have our hosting routine figured out, we love having people over for dinner and we make a great team. Rob (my husband) cooks the amazing meals we serve to our guest and I clean the house and decorate for every party, gathering or dinner event we host.
This time is no different;  I started getting ready last week, I went to the pumpkin patch and bought many pumpkins in different colours, shapes and sizes to decorate my front porch and my dining table. 

I usually get orange pumpkins but this time I decided to do things a bit different and bought an assortment of colour and different types of pumpkins. ​
Picture
Picture
I went home and played around with all my pumpkins and got beautiful yellow mums to compliment the colours and finish up the look. Here is what the front porch looks like, ready to welcome all our guest for tonight's dinner!
Picture
And last but not least my dining table centre piece arrangement for our dinner. We will be serving food buffet style and I can hardly wait to eat all the amazing food my husband is making and our family and friends are bringing.
Picture
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving Celebration!! 

​XO,

Keeping you in the loop!

Happy Monday Everyone!! Hope you had an amazing weekend. I'm so sorry I have been so disconnected from my blog, lots has been happening around here!! We moved two weeks ago and as you all know, moving is never easy. A few weeks before moving, I was going thru my whole house getting rid of all the things we don't need and seemed to have spent the longest time packing the garage! It feels like it takes forever to thoroughly go thru all of these items and decide to give them away, throw them in the garbage, sell them in the garage sale or keep them, We made three trips to the dumpster and several trips to the donation bins... But I have to say, there is nothing more liberating than getting rid of things you don't need and things that take space and energy in your home.
Picture
Picture
While packing and moving, I also had to work several staging and interior decorating projects, not to mention the kids of course are off school and that definitely adds a different dynamic around the house!
I was really trying to get back to my laptop and write a blog but I simply had no time or inspiration to write during that time. I honestly don't know how the amazing bloggers I follow are so disciplined with their writing schedule. I must say, blogging takes time and creativity... It's a full time job for sure!! I send kudos to all of them, because even when they are away on vacation they seem to find the time to write a little something for their followers and I gather that is the reason they do so well blogging. For example, Landyn from Living with Landyn, Cassie from Hi Sugarplum and Erin Sousa from Sparkle Media to mention three of my favourite girls out there!! I really look up to them and I hope one day I can get to blog and bring you helpful and interesting information as much as they do.

So, what is happening with Lili in the next month?
​

Well... My family and I are traveling to Guanajuato, Mexico; one of my young sisters is getting married and I have been helping her over the last year to plan everything for the big day. My plan is to arrive 5 days before the wedding to get all the last minute touches together and be there on the special day, I'm really looking forward to this!! 
After that we will be heading to Guadalajara, a 2 hr. drive from Guanajuato to visit the rest of my family for another 5 days. Finally, we will all head to Puerto Vallarta to finish our trip with a relaxing time by the beach and get ready to come back to Vancouver, completely relaxed and replenished of good energy to get back to work and continue creating amazing living spaces, which is my passion!!
Any way!! That is it for now, just wanted to keep you in the loop on what has been going on and will be going on in the next little while... What are your plans this summer? Would love to hear from you!


Thank you for reading :)    XO!!

Personalized Sequence Sun Hats

5/31/2017

0 Comments

 
Good Morning Everyone!! It has been a while since I wrote a blog... Things have been very busy around here, between being a Mom, Wife, Business owner, planning my Sister's Bachelorette Weekend in Vegas and now her wedding in July, I feel like I barely have time for sleeping!! 
I have to say I rather be this busy than not. I am grateful I have the opportunity to do all the things I love. 
Ok... Last weekend we were in Las Vegas with all the girls for my Sister's Bachelorette party and I organized the whole weekend and made incredible personalized sequence sun hats for everyone!! The hats were a hit, the girls loved them and they were great for the sun when we were in the pool as there were very few shaded areas around the pool and the hats kept us cool and protected us from burning!! 
Definitely a great idea for party favours!!

Here is a quick guide on how to make your own personalized Sun Hat.

Picture

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
​
  1. Plain sun hat 5' to 6" brim preferably.
  2. Sequence ribbon (your colour preference)
  3. Liquid Stitch Glue ( You can find it in Walmart or Michaels)
  4. Chalk pencil 
  5. Scissors
INSTRUCTIONS:
​
  1. Write down the phrase you want on your hat the way you want it to look.
  2. Start slowly tracing the lines with the glue, one line at a time.
  3. Glue your sequence ribbon as you are tracing and wait a few seconds for the glue to dry before continuing to the next line. 
  4. Adjust your sequence ribbon as you are gluing and voila!! 
These Hats are super easy to make and so fun to wear! Give them a try!!
Let me know your thoughts... XO!
