Current Cabinetry Palette

June 04, 2022 by Summer Shemo in Coastal Farmhouse, Home Design

Happy, happy weekend! 💛 Memorial Day weekend was so busy that I am savoring just being lazy around the house in pjs. The kitchen is clean, the kids are playing nicely… What. A. Day. 🙌🏼😜

We still have some cabinetry we plan to add to our coastal farmhouse, some areas that we intend to change (the range hood… IYKYK 😑), and one room that I am considering re-painting the cabinets🤫. A home is really always a “work in progress", AMIRITE?!? Maybe it’s just me.

I wanted to share our current picks for cabinet colors. These are all original to when we moved in. If we make any changes, I’ll definitely do an update for ya. Keep in mind our home is built in Florida and faces west. We have mucho windows with TONS of natural light and most of these photos were taken in daytime lighting.

Here is our cabinetry color choies:

  • Kitchen perimeter cabinetry: SW Pure White

  • Kitchen Island: BM Hale Navy

  • M Bath cabinetry: SW Pure White

  • Laundry Room: SW Iron Ore

  • Powder Bath: Minwax Special Walnut

  • Kids Bath: SW Pure Bath

  • Upstairs Bath: Minwax Special Walnut

I hope that helps if you are looking to make any paint/color decisions for your cabinetry. Do you have any current favorite cabinet paint colors? I’d really love to hear about them! Let me know in comments/DM/email. Thank you for being here with me!

Have a positively perfect week! ☀️

Our Coastal Farmhouse Paint Palette

May 17, 2022 by Summer Shemo in Coastal Farmhouse, Home Design

Hi! Long time, no talk…. Kinda. I went on vacay and took a little time off of blogging. My first time attending the Kentucky Derby (and Thurby) was SO full of fun and excitement! I’ll share a couple photos below if you missed my stories on Instagram.

A couple of weeks ago a sweet stranger pulled into my driveway and asked me about our exterior color. That conversation progressed into talking about whole-home color palettes and all things home design + construction. She is building nearby and it was so much fun to hear her plans and I was so honored that she stopped in to chat.

Our conversation got me to thinking about sharing our current palette so I put together my most recent insta reel. But I wanted to actually list the paint colors out in written format since I know so many folks prefer that.

Here is what we have so far:

Exterior siding: SW Pure White

Exterior Doors: Minwax Early American

Porch ceilings- Clear coat on tongue-n-groove

Main living: SW Alabaster

All trim: Pure White

Hallway: top- SW Opaline

Bottom- SW Pure White

Powder bath- BM Hale Navy

I hope this helps if you’re trying to decide!

Have a great weekend, y’all!

Lots’o sunshine,

Summer

Al Fresco Dreamin' with Polywood

April 16, 2022 by Summer Shemo in Coastal Farmhouse, Products & Lifestyle

Spring has sprung 🌷 and for us that means lots of al fresco family dinners. If you have followed my insta stories much in the last few weeks you might have noticed a trend: we love dining outdoors 🌿 Spring in North Florida is typically very nice and warm with regular sunshine-y days so thankfully we get lots of opportunities to enjoy meals on our porch and I recently partnered with Polywood to make ALL our “al fresco dreams” come true!

I wanted to give you a little background into who Polywood is and what they are all about. Polywood has been a leader in outdoor furniture for 30 years and was the first company to use recycled plastic in production of outdoor furniture. Sustainability is truly at the heart of the company, as their mission is to recover and transform landfill + ocean-bound plastic into durable furniture. They recycle up to 400k plastic-filled containers per day and as of 2021, one million pounds of plastic has been transformed into beautiful Polywood outdoor living pieces. Each piece is made up of genuine Polywood lumber which includes a 20 year warranty. Making memories outdoors is so important to Polywood and their outdoor pieces can be found in various styles including classic, transitional, and modern so there is truly something for everyone 🙌🏼Polywood is part of the #stopoceanplastic movement, of which you can follow and be a part on social media as well.

For our back porch family mealtimes, Matt and I chose the 7-piece Chippendale Dining Set and we are absolutely thrilled with it. First, the table and chairs required very minimal assembly (which is honestly SO NICE 👏🏼). Second, the pieces are all sturdy and wipe down easily (read: kid/toddler friendly)🙌🏼🙌🏼 It has been such a dream to eat our meals outside as a family and not worry about kid messes or destruction of furniture (IYKYK)😅 I highly, highly recommend Polywood outdoor living pieces if you’re in the market for beautiful and durable outdoor living pieces.

You can find and follow Polywood on all your favorite socials:

Be sure to also follow their company hashtags for regular updates: #polywood #loveyouroutdoors

As always, please feel free to comment, email, DM, or comments on my Instagram post with any questions and let me know if you have purchased Polywood for your outdoor spaces! I’d love to hear from you!

Happy spring 💐🪺🐥y’all,
