Bonus Room Makeover with Global Bohemian Accessories

If you have ever doubted the power of accessories, today's room redo should make you a believer.  We recently bought a new, comfy sectional for our favorite room of the house - our bonus room.  We chose a neutral sofa color.  Immediately after delivery, I knew I had to add some pops of color to the room.  I was looking for rugs and pillows when Wayfair invited me to participate in their "change your rug, change your room" challenge -- perfect timing!  So here is my awesome accessory room makeover.  I am amazed at the transformation.

Football Tailgate Wedding Rehearsal and Party Decor

Football season is here, and I just love football tailgate themed parties.  That's why I was excited when my mom asked me to decorate for my little brother's rehearsal dinner a couple of years ago.  He and his wife are big UGA fans and love tailgating at the Georgia Bulldog football games.  So, they requested that we create a football tailgate themed wedding rehearsal.

Niki setting up for Baker's Box segment on Atlanta & Company

          On Tuesday, I did another segment for Atlanta & Company.  Four years ago I went back to school to complete my Broadcast Journalism degree because I love to creatively tell a story that will encourage and inspire.  The fact that I now have so many opportunities to couple that passion for communication with some of my other favorites in life, like DIY and crafting is "the icing on the cake."  Just follow along while I show host, Christine Pullara, how to create these decadent looking cake-inspired gift boxes.

 

DIY Didn't I Think of This Sooner

Don't you just love the "Ah-ha" moment!  Sometimes it's using an everyday item that the rest of the world has been using for years, or sometimes it is using something in a new and different way.  Either way, it's usually something that was right in front of you all along.  So when Wayfair invited me to join in on their "DIY Didin't I Think of This Sooner?" sponsored campaign, I knew that I could come up with a list of those moments...so here are just a few.
