NDI

In six stunning arrangements we our pairing their life-like florals with our signature brushstroke ginger jars. From Cherry Blossoms to Olive Branches, there is the perfect arrangement to add fuss-free fauna to your home! (Seriously, you have to touch them to realize they are faux)!

We invite you to view the collections & meet Jana this Sunday at High Point, details for each event below!

I’ve never been one to edit our decor for the seasons, but this year we decided to have a huge holiday party & I wanted our home to relay a festive vibe that invites guests to stay awhile. In tweaking our spaces, I arrived at three top takeaways to get your home holiday-ready without completely overhauling every detail.

Here's my first tip & I'm excited to be sharing all of them over at Style Me Pretty Living today! 

Fresh greenery

Given our homes coastal vibe, I wanted the greenery to be a bit softer. As our local Michigan options are heartier, I took the task to Etsy. In doing so, I sourced this gorgeous (looking and smelling) bay wreath. 

Then, I’ve always wanted to work with magnolia, and thankfully my go-to florist, at the University Flower Shop, was able to source it for me.

I so enjoy that both the bay wreath, and magnolia branches, are drying now but are still so pretty.

Get the rest of my tips over at Style Me Pretty Living, I hope they resonate with you!

Happy holidays to you & yours!

This summer we partnered with Frontgate to refresh our poolside patio and I'm excited to share the transformation with you! 

We’ve enjoyed our Carlisle outdoor furniture for almost ten years. To that end, I must highlight that Frontgate's quality and customer service, is absolutely top notch. The level of detail they consider when crafting their products is evident. From the prints lining up on the cushion ties, to the furniture still looking beautiful after withstanding a decade of Michigan elements, when you purchase FG furniture, you can relax in knowing that the pieces are as durable as they are easy on the eyes. 

So while the pieces themselves were still in fine form, our original yellow and green color scheme was feeling a bit tired. Coupled with the need for new barstools, our outdoor area was begging for a new lease on life!

Here's a look at the before:

To create our outdoor oasis, we went for a classic navy & white resort vibe. I’m so happy with the crisp stripes and in knowing this timeless design will always feel fresh!

Here’s some additional peeks at the transformation:

If you’re here for the first time, welcome! I’m Jana Bek, an Ann Arbor based interior designer with an emerging lifestyle line of home décor, textiles, & lighting. I have a love for bright colors, bold prints, and designing spaces & home décor that help transport you to your dream destination.

I’m so excited to be participating in my fifth season of One Room Challenge & and a huge thanks to Linda of Calling it Home for organizing!

I’m so thrilled to share our kitchen reveal with you – the space is finally in line with the bright & airy aesthetic of our home! A big thanks to Marta Perez for capturing it so beautifully!

Let's recall the before:

The stunning Fireclay tile completely transformed the space, taking it to the ceiling made such a huge impact! The kiwi color really is the happiest shade of green.

We painted the cabinets Farrow & Ball’s James white, the shade has just enough warmth to compliment the green tones throughout the space, it’s a beautiful color. (This was our painter’s first time using F&B paints, he concluded it was the best paint he’s ever used). 

The Eldridge pendants set off the space beautifully, and our Dayna counter stools reinforce the coastal vibe I’m always after. 

I reupholstered the stool cushions in our aqua Shagreen fabric to add more color, I love how it compliments the tile!

To add character & interest into the shelves, I layered in artwork and vintage finds.

I especially love the colors in the Bananas’s Ripening & Tzealim pieces.

The space is so inviting, it’s such a happy place to cook & congregate!
