Weekend Recap – Life On Virginia Avenue

A model new weekend is kind of proper right here (yay!) nonetheless I needed to share all of the small print on our ultimate weekend because of it was a busy one with plenty of updates.

We took possession of our second rental residence ultimate week, so it was a crazy busy and hectic weekend for us. We took additional days to get the place in kind.

Friday morning though I ran to HomeGoods to get some devices for spring. I found these faux fiddle leaf fig stems for $12.99. They actually look pretty first fee specifically individual for the worth. I launched them residence so I can share with you all rapidly a comparability of the entire faux variations I’ve stumbled on there!

Late Friday afternoon, we met with Justin from Kloos Kutters/Outside Inspirations (our panorama designer from the pool problem). We’re engaged on together with some additional timber and crops this spring and it was fulfilling to contemplate the warmer months ahead!

Saturday morning we obtained up vivid and early and headed to the rental. We despatched this picture to my dad and mother of Kurtis gazing on the beautiful inexperienced storage wall sipping espresso. This was after they despatched us a pic of them ingesting espresso from their balcony overlooking the ocean in Mexico. I’m optimistic they’d been fully jealous.

I really feel I’ve talked about it on the weblog (and for optimistic on my Instagram Tales) that this zig zag wall was my best concern with the home. I found some really thick primer at Lowe’s (it’s the Valspar stain and odor blocking stuff) and shockingly, it coated 95% of the strains from the zig zags. That included the color and the paint build-up from the tape strains (the partitions are textured so I really didn’t want to ought to sand).

I ended up selecting Sherwin Williams Agreeable Gray for the partitions and I actually like the best greige tone!

We had been considerably exhausted Saturday evening time by the purpose we obtained residence (after a ten hour day of engaged on the rental). Mad Males for the win!

I lastly unpacked from our California journey over the weekend and wanted to share this shot of the entire beads I bought whereas I was available on the market. You presumably can see the bracelets I bought, too, inside the lower left nook merely to get a dimension for the dimensions of all of these!

Since they’d been all purchased at boutiques native to the Newport Seaside house, I rounded up some very comparable variations below for individuals who’re !

Sunday we went to brunch with our besties at Lot 2. Must you’re native, it’s inside the Benson house. The meals was crazy good, nonetheless the service was merely okay at most interesting. It’s apparently hipster central, too. We had been undoubtedly misplaced 😉

The bloody mary’s had been pretty implausible too! Jill, Nick and Kurtis all ordered the hen and waffles (ridiculously good) and I went with the Ramen which was moreover really good. I’m not going a breakfast meals explicit individual so I branched out a bit 🙂

After that, Kurtis and I ran to Dwelling Depot and Lowe’s for additional rental residence gives. Obtained a crazy complete lot on this chandelier and shades for the rental consuming room! One in all many challenges with the rental is that we want to make some updates to make it a bit additional current nonetheless we moreover really ought to deal with payments (significantly on this one because of the worth we paid). So, after I can uncover one factor modern at a great price, it makes my day! We had been really impressed with the usual for the worth!

I moreover bought these navy linen ceramic lamps over the weekend (for our residence) they usually’re so good! I haven’t had a chance to mannequin them however in our residence nonetheless can’t wait to share after I do. They seem quite a bit dearer than they’re, and I actually like the larger scale and the texture!

By the purpose we accomplished on the rental on Sunday evening time, we had been ravenous and totally exhausted. I blame my lack of thoughts power on the subsequent image. I forgot to say I was moreover sporting my skinny leg sweatpants which really shouldn’t be allowed out in public.

After which bought right here residence to this. I suppose I should be grateful that solely certainly one of many tulips was completely ingested:

I bought the lamp and vase above at HomeGoods to point a spring refresh of our customer mattress room. I’ll be sharing additional subsequent week!

We obtained the rental 90% of the best way during which accomplished for displaying and we already have a few appointments lined up for this coming weekend. Hoping we are going to get it rented for April 1st! I’ll plan to share a tour in a later put up.
