Our New Home.

September 1, 2015

As some of you know, Nathan and I moved to Austin! It has been our dream since getting married to move to a new city together.We decided to visit Austin and luckily for us, our first try we hit gold! We absolutely love this city; it is overflowing with culture, amazing restaurants, endless beauty, and the kindest people! We found the perfect little house that fits us nicely for our first home in this city; it is incredible to have our own yard to garden in and BBQ out back. Here are a few odds and ends of our new place, hope you enjoy!

Right after I took pictures of my place I went to Goodwill and found this amazing basket! I love its pattern and am obsessed with how it looks on our coffee table!

This basket is the perfect home for our Austin book. :)

Our faithful little fig. It took a beating on the road trip; luckily it is recovering.

This 'Be happy my baby print' is special to me. Nathan and I got it on our honeymoon in Paris. The little keys are from our lock on the famous love lock bridge - also in Paris!

Color coordinated bookshelf. 

I have wanted a Restoration Hardware lamp forever but they are SO expensive; I was overjoyed to find this equally chic cheaper Ikea lamp.

Welcome, my name is Mercedez! My husband Nathan, our little pup Thomas, and I just moved into the country outside of Austin, TX. We purchased our first home and haven't stopped renovating since! Follow along as I share my all of my favorite things in life; recipes, DIY's, beauty stuff, fashion, interior design, and so much more! 

I'm at a point in my life where getting a table runner on sale makes the day worth living.....hahaha Today Id like to be back in Saint Tropez. Everyone go follow my floral design Instagram. Ready, set, go! @theheirloomtable Down by the lake with my love. ☕️ bigger than my face. I need it today. Throwback to the good days at home in California. Sometimes, most of the time, I really miss it. I bought this 10 million dollar water bottle because it looked cool. 😒 Making salsa watching the rain😌 It's 82 degrees and raining. In Texas 82 degrees feels like sweater weather. One more house picture cause I'm loving our new living room. So much brighter and cozier than the last ❤️ I love our throw pillows! My kitchen sink window makes me so happy 😍
