Happy weekend! We officially head back to school this coming week, so we’re still deep in all the back-to-school preparations around here. There are backpacks to organize, a few last-minute supplies to grab, and I’m trying to soak up these final days of summer before our routines shift again. It’s always a mix of excitement for a fresh start and wishing I could slow time down just a little.
In the middle of all the errands, I stumbled across the best roadside find yesterday! I couldn’t pass it up, and I’ll be sharing the makeover plans over on Instagram soon. I think you’re going to love it.
I also finally hit publish on a major update to one of my most popular decorating guides: How to Style Bookshelves. I packed it with fresh styling ideas, common mistakes to avoid, and lots of practical tips to help you create shelves that feel collected instead of cluttered.
Now, grab a cup of coffee and settle in for this week’s Home Style Saturday! There are so many beautiful ideas to inspire your home this weekend.
Welcome to Home Style Saturday #515! Discover creative corner decorating ideas, a chic laundry room refresh, timeless decorating tips, a beautiful Southern garden tour, and simple guidance for creating a warm, welcoming home from the ground up.

Welcome to Home Style Saturday, your weekend serving of home inspiration!
Each Saturday, my kind blog friends and I share some of our favorite decorating tips, seasonal ideas, easy recipes, DIY projects, and more, all straight from the heart and home. It’s a bit like paging through a mini lifestyle magazine with your morning coffee.
We’re so happy to spend part of your weekend with you. There’s something here for every season and every type of homebody. xo, Laura
