A Coffee Nook
Fall Finds
We had this dead space in the dining room that I went back and forth on when deciding how to decorate it. In our formal dining room, all we had was a buffet that I deemed the coffee bar, and we decorated it as such. It’s where I make my coffee every morning and otherwise the room was completely empty. Then I got a plant, and sat it right in the lonely corner by itself, and the emptiness of the room was basically screaming at me every time I looked at it.
Okay well some of the screaming may have just been from Luke. But it just didn’t have a purpose! I knew I didn’t want it to function like a proper dining room, but I did want to finish the space and still allow the room to feel open and airy. When HomeGoods reached out to work together on a project, I knew I had to tackle this room. So – welcome to my new coffee nook!
As you can see, my cat Gravy has made himself quite at home already. I had chairs that I had already purchased, but I needed a rug and other accessories, along with a table to complete the sitting area. I went to the HomeGoods closest to me to find a very specific table and I found the perfect one!
Since the rug was a bit dark, and the chairs were dark, I wanted a light marble table. I was also willing to settle for glass, but I really wanted marble. And there are tons of marble accessories to choose from, so had I not found this perfect table, I would have made up for my marble needs with accessories. The finish on the legs and edge is antique gold, which feels cool, and I think it fits in the room just perfectly. To add a bit of height, I found some cook books in the kitchen section of the store, and stacked 3 of those and placed a floral* arrangement on top.
I couldn’t help but make a batch of apple fritters for my family the other day. I hit the jackpot with some perfectly tart granny smith apples, and immediate knew they would work perfectly in a fritter. If you’d like the recipe, just click here! It was such a fun project to work on, and HomeGoods is a place I’ve shopped at for years and years. The rug in our living room, which I’m asked about frequently on Snapchat, is from HomeGoods as well. I noticed a really vast selection of neutral colored rugs at the store, and had 3 favorites but ultimately narrowed it down to this one.
My next project is to create a plant stand for my little tree to the right of the seating area, so that feels a bit more intentional, but otherwise the room is pretty much done!
I love that the room functions for what we need it for, versus what the traditional use for it is. And I also love that I’ve checked the box of “finish the dining room area” on my to do list!

No Twitter, blog, or Facebook, because I’m the worlds lone holdout in such things:p
I really would love the chance to try a HomeGoods makeover. We have 2 in our area, and while I go in with great intentions, I’m always so overwhelmed by both stores that I usually leave with nothing. It would be great to have a head start in making our bedroom or front living room more homey, as those are the rooms which get the least attention (even though the front living room has become more of a playtime staging area for our 16 month old).
Beautiful coffee nook! If I were to pull that off in our house, my husband would demand it be in Dunkin Donuts pink and orange with full time employees at his beck and call;)
I would love to win this sweepstakes to help in transforming an extra bedroom in our house. Right now it has no purpose and has become a drop zone for everything. This prize would definitely help us to organize our space.

SO ADORABLE! Lovin’ the grey (gray?*) color scheme. Keeping’ it simple and classy!
We just bought a fixer, so literally every room needs a makeover! A gift card would definitely help 🙂
We are finishing building our new house now and expecting our first child in February! I would love this to get started on his nursery.
This is beautiful! My home office is in MAJOR need of a makeover, the giftcard would help out!!
We are decorating our baby’s nursery so we would love a gift card to get started!
Our office is very empty, just a desk. I would love to make it a cozy, more versatile room.
This would be amazing!!
My bedroom is in desperate need of a makeover. Like many others, my bedroom is the last to get the star treatment because guests typically don’t see it. When we moved into our new house a year ago, I prioritized the high-traffic rooms first, like the kitchen and living room. This has left my bedroom neglected and a place where it’s stressful to lay my head down at night instead of a sanctuary like it should be.
Great post! Love the table!
I would love to do something with our spare bedroom! Right now it’s just a futon and an art table and looks quite sad!
I’d love to work on my master bedroom. Definitely not a peaceful retreat at the moment.
My living room is in need of paint, pillows & pictures. It’s been olive green since we painted it 8 years ago & I would love to go lighter to brighten things up!
We are a military family and just moved in to a new home about a year ago. I have not been able to find decor for our house in the small town we live in. Home goods is about an hour away, so I try to get there as much as I can! My bedroom and our living room could use some help for sure! The only rooms that look put together are my kids rooms. I’d love the oppurtuity to win to help get our house looking like a home!
I would love to win this as we bought our first home back in December and pretty much every room could use a makeover. I’m so crossing my fingers for this one!!

When we moved to Raleigh almost 1 year ago, I was newly pregnant with our second baby. We bought our “forever home” in March and immediately re-did our now 2 year old’s room and the new baby’s. They look great, but they are the only rooms in the house done to my liking! I’d love to shop HomeGoods to give our master bedroom a little facelift. 🙂
I want a mini makeover for our formal dining room. I haven’t been very intentional in decorating it and it just needs a refresh.
I love that you have a coffee bar and nook. That’s definitely a #homegoal for me!
Our front room is a gathering place for stuff but could use some hekp with function!
Love the gray you highlighted and Home Goods is my new go-to!
My bedroom desperately needs a makeover! It is purely functional at this point and I would love to make it feel like a retreat at the end of a busy day. Thanks for the chance to win this!
The finished space looks so cozy. Love Homegoods!
My space would be the master bedroom – I have a few things on the walls , but no specific direction the room is going. Thanks for the opportunity to enter!
I think I’d have to say the den because that’s the first room people see when walking in the door. But honestly, I need a little here and a little there!!
My living room desperately needs some love! I’ve got a start, but need a few more staple items. This would help tremendously!
I would like love to win! We have an office that is slowly becoming a storage unit! Lol ?
Oh gosh.. my entire house needs a makeover! My husband and I bought our first house a little over three years again and have only redone the bathroom. I would love to win the gift card and finally be able to redo another room ( or at least get started).
We have a bedroom that I would love to turn into a playroom for my kiddos! That room could definitely use a HomeGoods makeover!
Love the colors of your home!
Thanks so much!
Your nook looks so good!
I would probably use towards my son’s bedroom. He isn’t little anymore and needs an update.
We just bought a house earlier this year straight out of the 70’s. While our kitchen and bathrooms need some major work, a small project to kick things off would be the perfect – our entryway would be perfect! When you enter the front doors of our house you’re met with a wall of floral wallpaper and the option to go right or left in the fairly narrow entryway. I would love to take down the wallpaper and have shelving with a wall of pictures, hooks for jackets, a narrow bench and a mat for shoes to sit on. This contest would give me the opportunity to make my vision a reality!
We recently moved about 7 months ago and I had a baby 5 months ago, so our house is kind of a mess 🙂 We’re a military family too and so after many moves this last time we decided to downsize a lot of junk furniture rather than move it all again. We have a huge living/dining space now and things are looking a little bare. I’d love to start decorating it and have it feel more like a home!
My bedroom is in dire need of an update! We moved into our new house two years ago and our mattress are still on the floor! We have yet to buy a bed for ourselves as we needed to get new bed for our kids. Our dresser is a hand me down from my parents. I just need to update it so it feels more like an adult bedroom oasis vs college studemts bedroom! Thanks!
I just put a coffee station in my kitchen. My husband converted an old dresser, I love it! However, I have yet to do any decorating or finishing touches on or around it. THANK YOU for all of the fun and CREATIVE ideas to spark my creativity!!
We bought our house earlier in the year and I still have a few areas that I’d like to fix up. We have a formal sitting room, where we have our piano and a couple of nice chairs. I’d love to get a little table similar to the one in your post for in between the chairs and some nice decor for the walls in that room.
My house hasn’t had much done to it since we built it almost 30 years ago. Getting a little dates….needs help!! This would be awesome!!
I would love the opportunity for help w/ our guest bedroom! Right now it serves as dumping spot for items I haven’t found a permanent home for yet. It is not welcoming at all!

Love the coffee nook! Would love to finish decorating our guest room!
I would love to redo our master bedroom! It looks like a hot mess! But it’s last ok the list of “To Do” because guests don’t go to the master bedroom!
Love your coffee nook! I love Home Goods and would love to win a gift card. We just finished paying our house off and now we need to start updating rooms again. I would start with my livingroom first. There is a Home Goods 3 miles from me and I frequent often, such a great store!
My downstairs bathroom is all white so it definitely needs some work.
Our livingroom… the walls have been bare since we renovated 5 years ago. Time to hang something!
We have a front room that is supposed to be a formal living room but we have turned it into a room for our teenage boys. I would love to be able to finish this room. We need more decorations and a side table.
Love what you did with this room! I just finished building a home (literally we built it) and am still working on getting things finished as far as decorating. HomeGoods was where I purchased my sofa and lots of other pillows and accessories. I am always looking for more!
I love the coffee nook! I would love to add some decor to our living room–it’s pretty sparse right now!
My guest room/office could use a makeover. I no longer like the desk and shelves that are in there but don’t know what to get instead.
I would love to give our living room a makeover! We’re a military family and we’ve moved 4 times in 3 years, and a lot of times, what fit in an old house no longer goes with purchase new space!
Always love your style and tips! I’d love the chance to transform our guest room! We are a military family and just recently moved. Most of our furniture is being made to “work for the time being” in our rental home. However, since we are out of state removed from family I would love to cozy up the guest room and make it an inviting place for our family to visit!
Love Home Goods! I would love to give my bedroom a makeover.
Our dining room is also in need of a makeover! Currently, it is housing cat food, our computer, and has become a catch-all for craft supplies..so, basically it’s having a bit of an identity crisis at the moment..?
Our master bedroom. Just looking at it last night thinking how awesome it would be if we won a contest to redesign. We have plain curtains, white sheets, a tan comforter.. Mismatched furniture. Nothing is pretty.
We just bought a new couch for our living room, so that’s definitely the room I would love to update! I am working on a gallery wall for the wall behind the couch, and so some frames and wall decor would go perfectly. I also need a few curtains to liven up my window, and an accent chair would go perfectly below the window (similar to what you did!). A Home Goods gift card would come in so handy and would be such a huge help in getting that room marked off my to-do list!
Spare bedroom needs some help! Love HomeGoods!

We need help everywhere, but especially our living and dining areas – we just moved and it’s a big open concept space and our old stuff doesn’t work particularly well… Would love to have some help along the way!
I love home goods! I wouldn love to finish decorating my master bedroom. It has had blank walls and mismatched furniture for the last 4 years? It has been the last room to get any attention, and I wish it could be a relaxing getaway for my husband and I.
Fall is home inspirational home makeover season for me and I like to take on a project as children leave the nest and tired walls need refreshment. Except I struggle with my own space. The master bedroom & bath are in great demand for a breath of fresh air and need creative guidance that would be welcomed by HomeGoods ?
We just bought our house this summer, and while a lot of the rooms are feeling *mostly* done…we desperately need to create a drop zone for coats, shoes, etc…especially as the weather is getting colder! Right now this stuff is migrating…everywhere…
I love this little coffee nook! What a cute idea in place of a formal dining room.
This gift card would be fantastic because my husband and I just moved in to our first home and we literally have noting but a bed and a couch! (And the couch was from when my husband was a bachelor, enough said) It’s so hard to decide on one room since they all are empty, but I guess I would have to say our dining room so we could finally work towards a table and chairs. That way we can finally have somewhere to sit and eat!
Sadly I don’t have a blog or twitter account, so I hope this entry will do!
This little nook is to die for! Such a pretty space!

Would love to add a rug to our dining room to cozy it up for the holidays! If I win, I would head straight to Homegoods. Of course, I would end up with more than a rug, as things just somehow magically appear in my cart by the time I checkout. ?
The newest HomeGoods is an hour away! We just finished up some renovations… It’s time to make a trip! I love what you did in the dining room!
Our living room is one room that I feel needs some help in the decoration department.
A HomeGoods is opening next week in our area, so excited!! I would love to work on our master bathroom. Love your blog!
This is fabulous! We’ve been in our new house for a year and have the same “empty” space you had – a front room with big windows and a fireplace that’s empty!! I’d love to dress up the mantle and create a sitting area.
I have a large kitchen. I have an area that is blank and blah. I’ve managed to get an old sewing table that I intend to use as the coffee station, but would love to use Home Goods for my accessories and wall décor. This space is screaming help and that $100 Visa gift card is just the ticket to get that project done.
Our guest room needs a major makeover, as we now need it to become a nursery! I’ve already been browsing HomeGoods!
I love your coffee nook! Our home office also doubles as a storage room and is in desperate need of a makeover!
I need a nursery! Currently the room is our “dump everything we don’t have a better spot for” room, but in a few months it will be Baby’s space, and it’s not ready for him or her!!!
Would love to do our basement/playroom. Have lived in our house for two years & just haven’t had the time or $$ to make the basement a place where we can hang out.
I recently bought a house and I’m slowly decorating room by room. I would love to tackle the patio next so I could enjoy some Tennessee fall nights!
Thank you for considering me for the promotion!
I actually just moved to the Raleigh area, and I suddenly have so much more space than I am used to from my tiny apartment in Chicago. The living room area is so… empty and un-lived in. I would love to give it more life with bright furniture similar to your coffee table, as we have a mind-blowing view of forests and fields out in the backyard!
Our dining room is a complete mess right now – we moved in to this house about 4 months ago but the dining room still has a stack of unhung pictures, a strange wire bakers rack, and folding chairs! I’d love a run in there (new house is all hardwood) and some actual dining room chairs.

The room in my house that needs a makeover is my upstairs bedroom/sitting area. It hasn’t been touched in decades….the previous owners re-did the main floor, but not the upstairs. It’s where all of our random, mis-matched furniture has been going. It definitely needs some thought and work put in to it!
My bedroom could really use a spruce!
I love HomeGoods! I have plans to redecorate my girls bedroom, so that is my next project.
My dinning room desperately need a rug and some accesories.
I would love to update our family room a little more. We are planning to add stone to our fireplace but that’s just the starting point! Home Goods is a favorite to stop at when I get a chance, only wish there was one closer to home!
You’re dining room looks great! I have so much of my house to makeover but I would start with the bedroom/my office. I would love to give it a new and fresh look that would maybe inspire me a little bit.
This is awesome! Crossing my fingers that I might win!
Our first baby (a boy!) is due in January and we are currently decorating a nursery. It’s been challenging because we live in an open concept loft. So his nursery is going to be a nursery/library/den combo. Needless to say we could definitely do some damage on a trip to HomeGoods!
Forgot my tweet!

Um….EVERY room in my house. It is 10 years old and it’s décor and needs a makeover. But if I had to pick one, I would pick the living room. We are in there a lot and would like more light/bright colors to perk it up.
My bedroom is in desperate need of a make over. It was the room I claimed I would do first when we moved in… a year and a half ago! (It’s now the last that needs to be done). I would love to get some accessories for it!
your coffee corner turn out relaxing and cozy. our master bedroom is in desperate need. its the dumping ground of of sorts of miss match stuff, just closed the door if i don’t want to see it.
I love shopping at Home Goods, I would like to put the finishing touches on our guest bedroom!
My bedroom desperately needs a makeover! My boyfriend and I just moved in together and we’ve focused all our energy on the downstairs of our house. But our bedroom has fallen by the wayside and could really use some sprucing up.
Our family room is in desperate need of attention. I hung a wall clock when we moved in two years. It’s the only thing on the wall, and it doesn’t even work anymore.
Our “office” needs a makeover! It does have a desk in it, but is somewhat functioning as a large walk-in closet!!
My townhome needs a makeover from the 90’s to today’s style! I would redo the entrance area and add in a mudroom to get ready for winter!
My husband and I are looking at buying our first house. Pretty much all of our current household items are castaway items from our parents. 🙁 When we move, we are getting all new stuff and start fresh! I love shopping Homegoods for inspiration!
My dining room desperately needs a makeover. It currently houses any random pieces of furniture/decor I have no where else to put. So it’s not very cohesive with the rest of the house, or even cohesive with itself? Would love to change that!
And I love that you partnered with HomeGoods! I LOVE HomeGoods because of their great style and, most importantly, their prices. Much more realistic for my price point/lifestyle than some of these other home decor places others recommend.
and here’s my Twitter post: https://twitter.com/emyleeconnally/status/786203048787914752
I have a guest bedroom downstairs that only has a bed in it! Ha! I would love to win this to help finish this room.
I would really love to make over my master bedroom/bath. It is so boring and so unrelaxing!
Thank you for the wonderful giveaway

We moved at the beginning of the summer and we have an extra bedroom that is designated “Mommy’sRoom” (I have two boys and need a girly, non testosterone filled place!) I want to make it a craft/reading room, but right now it’s full of boxes and random furniture we haven’t found another place for.
I would love to win this sweepstakes! I just bought my very first home all on my own and I’m a proud new home owner. I just need a little help decorating it up! I have a new Homegoods store in my area and I LOVE IT! Thanks for the great post Kate.

My bedroom desperately needs a makeover! Three years ago when I bought our house, I said the bedroom would be the first to get done…guess how that turned out! The previous homeowners took the easy route for absolutely everything: instead of removing the wallpaper, lets just wallpaper over it! And then paint over it! And then paint again! What I’ve got going on now is some hand-me-down furniture, a bed frame from Amazon, and walls that are slowly but surely being torn apart. This gift card would be a great little boost to get me started on the road to renovation so I can finally feel comfortable and at peace in my space.
Our home office needs a makeover.
We’ve had a chance to update a few rooms already, but our bathroom is in need to some attention! Would love to see it finally get some attention!

I love this! I am also needing to update our formal dining room. I have a table and chairs I love, but just need a new hutch/storage/bar cart to freshen up the furniture!
I love homegoods too! Our master bedroom needs lots of help! We bought our first home this summer and had a new baby 1 week after closing.. soo it’s a mess 🙂 haha. I’d love to add some nightstands and a cozy rug to make it a more peaceful place to go at the end of the day.
I’m about to get married and definitely need a gift card to transform my fiance’s bachelor pad into a cozy home:)
Love how this space turned out!! Looks so cozy!
I desperately need a new chair for my living room!
My living room needs a makeover. I am saving up for it now. I need a new couch, chair, and rug. And decor items and I want the walls painted!

We need some serious help in our front room/dining room-it’s so close to being done but really just needs some extra love.
Is it sad to say every room? There are just tweaks that are needed everywhere!
Definitely our master bedroom! It has been the most neglected since moving in a year and a half ago! A rug just like the one you chose would add some great texture, as well as some type of small buffet/cabinet! I love what you chose and the chairs you already had purchased!
Definitely it would be my dining room also. That room has sat empty since we moved in 2 years ago! I plan on getting furniture in the near future and would love some help with accessorizing the space. I love Home Goods!
Your office space looks awesome! I am a neutral girl all the way, so this is spot on with my style.
I started to create a make up/office space out of a small bedroom in our house and it’s been sitting incomplete for 3 years now. I would be super excited to finish it so I can actually have some room to get ready in and be organized!
I’m in a holding pattern with decorating my living room. We have a couch on order, but I just can’t seem to pull the trigger on the rest of the of the decor. I would love to have this extra money to help me find the right stuff within our budget, which will probably be at HomeGoods! 🙂
This space looks great and I love that you aren’t using it as a dining room. If we aren’t using it for it’s “intended” purpose then let’s make it what we really want. I love HomeGoods and shop there way too much. Thanks for the chance to win!
My living room needs some extra decor to pull it all together. It’s looking kinda bare. 🙁
We just bought a house, and our living room is in desperate need of a make over. We have EEEEK oversized black leather furniture. It’s so sad. Hahaha!
My bedroom — it’s been getting the back burner!
We LOVE Home Goods! A brand new store just opened up in our area, so we no longer have to travel 30 minutes to get to one! I would love love love a gift card to go shopping at the new location!
My sunroom!! Do I put a dining room table in it?? do I put wicker furniture in it?? do I put a coffee bar☕️ in it. Would be nice if I could make up my mind ?
Our living room needs some lovin’ and a makeover. We recently moved into our home a year ago, and desperately need a new couch and other sitting options. We also complied furniture from our 5 years of marriage so far, and nothing really matches are goes together. Just need to basically hit the reset button.
Thanks for this giveaway offer!

My living room needs some loving.
My living room could definitely use help! A new area rug, coffee table and some fun decorations for the built-ins would be great.
Our guest room is a DISASTER. The only thing that makes it a guest room is that there’s a bed in there. It’s currently filled with furniture left over from our college days and who knows what else. I’d love to make it more inviting, homey, and intentional. HomeGoods would really help!
Love the coffee nook! I feel like my dining/living room/kitchen area could use a major makeover!
We just moved a couple of months ago–so every bedroom in the house. I would love to redo our master bedroom so it could become a cozy retreat!
Sounds like we are not the only ones whose master bedroom is in desperate need of a makeover! The rest of the main floor is in pretty good shape overall, but our bedroom needs some professional help (and about 6 more hampers, maybe) 🙂
Your dining room looks great, Kate! I love that you didn’t use it as a traditional dining space. My whole house needs help. It’s currently taken over by baby items for my 8 month old and most of our furniture is hand-me-downs. How do you manage to keep your house looking magazine-worthy with two boys running around?! Maybe one day I will have a house that looks like an adult lives there. Haha! I love that you got all the items from HomeGoods! They just opened one by my house and I have been dying to go there! Keep up the great work, Kate!
My bedroom!! We started a remodel a few months back, but life has been quite busy and we just haven’t gotten back to it yet!
we just bought our first home, and it’s spacious, so the whole thing will be a work in progress! I’m most excited to get our living room furnished and styled.
We are closing on a new house this month. I’d use the gift card towards making a beautiful master retreat, something we don’t have now.
I could use some help with my little home office / sewing room. It’s a good space but could definitely use some attention!
I love HomeGoods! I used their amazing deals to transform my husband’s old office into a nursery for our firstborn son (Coming in November). Now I need to redo our guest room for all the potential family coming to visit! Help!
I love the little nook! It looks beautiful!
Oh, I would update my bedroom and make it lighter and more cohesive.
Ihave always loved your style in your homes!! Your old house was so beyond beautiful, and your new house is gorgeous.
Pretty much every room in my house could use a makeover. We are living in a very old manufactured home and it is a slow process trying to uodate it. But my main goal is to step up the kitchen and dining areas. That is where the hustle and bustle is and during birthday parties i need it. Id really love to win if you could come style my house kate 😉
Such cute finds Kate! My living room is definitely in need of some love! Great giveaway!!
I will be moving into my first home. I could use the makeover in any of my rooms. One room that stands out would be my dining room. I have no furniture for that room.
My son’s bedroom. He is about turn 13 in about a month and his room is still exactly the same as when he was born!! I know……absurd! He has finally agreed it needs to be changed. The cute spaceships and planets need to move out and make way for a teenagers room.
I’m so excited about this sweepstakes with Home Goods. My very sad looking “home office” could use a makeover. I’m a birth Doula and work-from-home Mama of a fiery two year old little boy. I would love a more sophisticated and soothing workspace for myself.
Our master bedroom could definitely use some help! With 2 little kids and a house that has been almost completely remodeled, out bedroom has gotten completely neglected. And, a Home Goods just opened near me!!!
My powder room desperately needs some accessorizing! I just repainted it but some extra shelves and towels would complete the look so nicely!
I love what you did with the space! My husband and I are in the middle of fixing up our home and could really use a gift card. We love Home Goods! 🙂
The coffee nook looks beautiful!
I would love to win! I could use help in many areas of my home, my decor needs inspiration and I lack the creativity at times.
My bedroom needs serious help!
I’d love to redo the living room and make it less cluttered.
We are moving my daughter into a different bedroom. Off to homegoods we go! Giftcards are the best!
We just celebrated our 1 year anniversary of moving into our first home! But, our bedroom still looks exactly as it did when we moved in! Nothing on the walls, no rug, nothing! This would be an awesome little kickstarter to give our room some love!
I’d love to redo my bedroom. It’s still the same as it was when I moved into my home 11 years ago!
Just in time – I’m remodeling my kitchen!!
Why don’t you use the dining room as a traditional dining room? What do you do when you have people over for dinner? Just curious.
I’d love the GC to redo our front office room, which has actually functioned as a bedroom until my oldest moved out on his own. It needs a makeover!
Our guest room! It’s just a catch all of random furniture and extra stuff that needs to be donated or in storage!
I’d love to finish our bedroom (always the last to happen) and HomeGoods finally opened close to me. Thanks!
My bedroom def needs a little (actually a LOT) HomeGoods TLC

I would love the opportunity to revamp our master bedroom. My husband and I have been married for 5.5 years and are still using my bedroom furniture that I’ve had since I was in 5th grade!! I want a space that feels more grown up and doesn’t remind me of my childhood (although it was a very happy one!) haha Love the coffee nook!
Our guest bedroom could use a major sprucing up!
Thank you for the chance to win. My living room could use some attention.
Either our master bedroom or home office could use this gift card, being a work from home mom of 2 those are the two rooms with the most clutter and that get the least attention.
I would love to find furniture that fits our guest room better. It’s a cozy room with oversized furniture in it, giving it that stuffed look.
I would love to win this sweepstakes! My living room desperately needs a makeover. We’ve only been in our home for a year and a half. At the time we moved I had a 10 month old, and was pregnant with our second so we never had a chance to really decorate and make it a “home.” We’ve had the same furniture since we moved from New York to North Carolina five years ago, and I’m pretty sure that it’s ten years older than that! I would love the opportunity to create a space for my kids and husband to enjoy that we can build together.
Our livin room really needs help! It looks like everything was bought 2nd hand, which it was, there’s no color scheme or style and feels frumpy! This would help us get going in the right direction.
For the last feweek months I have been looking at our living room/dining room & wanting to change it up. We have lived in our house, a total fixer, for 10 years and this was the first room we rehabbed. I have paint leftover from our stairwell that would look great in there but it is a few shades lighter than what is currently on the walls. By using my “free” paint it would mean changing my curtains, dining room chairs, and couch because they would be too dark! And while we’really at it I’m over the coffee table that I’ve had for 12 or 13 years. (There’s nothing wrong with it so I feel guilty getting rid of it but I’m just done, you know?) None of this would be an issue if we were going to live here another 10 years but we would like to move on to a larger place in the next 2, so anything that would help keep the cost of a spruce up down would be great! I’m too practical to go spend $2k for new furniture I want but don’t need!
I would love a chance to win a makeover for my office! I currently share a small office with my husband and only have one desk. I am studying for the CPA exams and would love my own desk/space for studying so I don’t have to take over other areas in the house!
My kitchen needs a makeover. I need to change the cabinets and the flooring
We just bought our first house and I have so many project room, the giant wall in the dining room, our master bedroom, the guest room…goodness I have some work to do!
https://twitter.com/ElenaIstomina/status/786240307801100288
We have been in our house for eight years and I have focused on everything except for my room. I would love to decorate our master!
We recently moved to a new home in SC from PA and still have MANY spaces to fill! I would love to decorate my dining room or put the finishing touches on my living room. Thanks for the opportunity!
I would love to make over a similar nook in our kitchen. It’s not quite big enough for a dining room table, but it’s too big for just a china hutch. I think a coffee (or wine!) nook would be perfect there.
Love your nook, Perfect!
I too am a holdout for Twitter, Snapchat, Blog, Instagram, Facebook, etc.
I would *love* to do something with our spare room / office. It seems to be a place of clutter! I’m terribly overwhelmed and have no idea what to do.
I love this coffee nook!
My husband and I have been in a perpetual state of remodel since we bought our house. We finally got our master room finished and I use it as my little oasis away from the rest of the demolished house. The only downside is that I have not decorated it at all. The fresh new walls, windows and floors could definitely use some pretty things to make it perfect!
I’d like to work on our family room. It’s the last room in our house that needs to be done.
LOVE the gold! Always looking for new ways to change up my house.
This is such a cool giveway, and your coffee nook looks amazing! I don’t have a specific room on its own that needs a makeover, but both my living room and my bedroom could use a few finishing touches! I need some tall end tables in my living room (my couch arms are the same height as the back of the couch), and I could use some more pillows/accessories in my bedroom!

This is an awesome giveaway! I am a huge fan of Homegoods and we have two rooms in our house that could desperately use some help! We are starting from scratch on buying furniture and decorating our dining room and guest bedroom. We really like a modern, eclectic style, mixing old with the new. Homegoods has a great variety of both! I’m an avid Instagramer but that’s as far as the social media train takes me! Hope very much to win!
Your home is absolutely stunning! What a great idea to add a little coffee nook! I would love to have a little space where I can chat over coffee or read. Those apple fritters look so delicious! It’s making me hungry!
http://www.thebeautydojo.com
Our master bedroom. I actually spend a LOT of time in there as our boys tend to take over the living room. It has been neglected and is filled with mismatched furniture and the curtains from the previous owner.
I have a sitting nook in my house that is bare and desperately in need of attention! I would love a kick start! I love what you have done with the space!
I also have a weird space that crying out for help. It’s in my living room. I am decor challenged. So any help from Homegoods would be amazing to help get me started!!!
Our living room! It is just a hodge poster of furniture without any real design
I have a guest bedroom that is painted “bitter dark chocolate”. It’s really a beautiful very dark brown/purple color. And a great color for encouraging sleep. BUT still have a hard time finding some bedding that would work and to complete the room. How fun to have a little help with that.
Our bathroom is old and outdated. It needs a major makeover!
I probably won’t win. Becuase I never win.
Anything.
I lied.
I once won a Book It t-shirt in 1st grade. Do you remember Book It?! And do you know it still exists?! My son is in 3rd grade and they did Book It last year!
So, in honor of my son, and (sorta) never winning anything, and Book It, I would love to use the $100 Homegoods gift towards doing something cool in his 3rd grade room! But we don’t have a Homegoods in my neck of the woods, so I guess it will be a good excuse to drive to the Chicago burbs! Yay!
**Positive Vibes**
And by “room” I mean CLASSROOM. Shame on me for not being articulate! Every classroom needs a good reading nook, don’t you agree?
I would love the opportunity to redo my Master bedroom. Its so out-dated, dark & dreary.
I have an empty wall in my family room that needs some love.
Oh goodness me I would do my office. I’m a stay at home mommy who and I have a health and lifestyle business. When I am on my business calls they are via video chat and the background of my calls is my black printer and three not placed well pictures!! It’s so sad!! I think finishing my office space would help me so much by allowing me to work in a space that inspires me. If I feel inspired I can help others feel inspired!
My master bedroom could definitely use an update, but my family room is a close second??. I’m ready to lighten up the colors in my house, everything is dark, I’m ready to cheer it up a little!
We have a piano/toy/reading room just off our living room. I would love to turn it into a room with intentional toy storage instead of “all the toys piled in the corner!!” system we have now! Lovely makeover!! ?
My desk needs not just an update, but a makeover. It is currently two tables, one with a laptop and printer, and one with all the other junk from around the house on it. It is hindering my productivity quite a bit… I need a better form of organization and a more satisfying atheistical effect.
*aesthetic, not atheistical! Auto correct was wrong yet again…
My 5 year old daughter saw the apple fritters and asked to make them for lunch. They’re a new family favorite!!!!
I love this room! Great giveaway, too!

Our bedroom is in desperate need of a makeover, and we are also having our first baby in February! I would put this gift card to great use! 🙂 We JUST got a new Homegoods in my area, and I can’t wait to check it out!
Love it all!
Thanks for the giveaway chance! I’d love to spruce up our dining room and love Home Goods. It would be fun to do “that little extra”.
Love it! Even Gravy is fits the color scheme!
I just moved into my first home and am in desperate need of some inspiration in my “office” room. I love HomeGoods and would love to look there for some design ideas!
I LOVE HomeGoods! We just bought our first new bedroom furniture set and I would love to makeover our master bedroom in a bohemian theme! Right now the walls and nightstands are empty. That $100 gift card would be so incredible.
My bedroom could definitely use some help. We have lived in our home for 14 years and still have not hung any pictures or art on the walls. It could use some window treatments. It’s very plain, but yes, it’s the room only we see!
I really need to update our dining room! It seems to be a catch all right now!
I’m turning my formal dinning room into my “pretty” office and could really use the extra money to help put those finishing touches on it. Thanks!
My Fireplace Room NEEDS a makeover. This would be great! Love Home Goods!
I’m due with our first in December, so the nursery needs finished!
We have some finished attic space that desperately needs attention – we’d be thrilled for some extra $$ to get to work on it! 🙂
I would love to do something like this in our dining room! Right now its my husbands office.
Love the way your coffee nook looks! The color palette is fantastic.
Man, a sweepstakes win would be so handy right now! Our living room (and frankly, the whole house) is in shambles after 4 years of college frat boys (former tenants) wreaking havoc on it. We’re trying our darndest to fix things up on a shoestring budget, and HomeGoods would definitely make a big impact!
I have been very intentional about updating the common areas of my house but my bedroom seems to be the catch all. It needs updating for sure and really just a few things to bring it to life… like a nightstand on both sides of the bed instead of just one… 🙂
Would love to win this!! My office needs help!!
We are moving out west after 10 years in Washington DC and I just want new everything. It is a new chapter in our lives and redoing our furniture and decor will be so much fun to signal a fresh start in a new city!
How fun! It’s a light and refreshing room, for sure. It makes me want to come and sit!
What an awesome giveaway! Our breakfast nook is open on all sides – to the left is our kitchen, behind are our sliding doors and deck, and beyond two column posts on the right, is our open concept dinning room. We are at a loss for what to do with this space! Another table looks silly since the dining room is a few feet away and our island has seating in the kitchen. We are in need of… Something. I am sure Home Goods would have the answer 🙂
Here’s my entry! Haha… I really would like to win! I’d put the money toward a play area for the baby, the entry or the hallway. It would be nice to finally fix up one of those areas!
Kate, what is the color on your walls?
Looks so inviting! I would love it to re-do my bedroom. I just can’t seem to get it right!
I would love to start with my living room (because my whole house needs some love)!
I’d love to redo my master bedroom, but I get so overwhelmed!!
Sadly, our master bedroom could use some help. It has the basics, but really needs some special touches to turn it into the peaceful retreat a bedroom should be. Thanks for the chance to win!
I just repainted my bedroom and am looking for accessories to finalize my decor especially wall art. You coffee nook is such a fun idea!
I love color and love the freedom to go more bold than normal IF I don’t have to spend too much money!

My bedroom needs a makeover. We recently moved into our home, but I feel that I have too much dead space in my bedroom. I would love to make use of that space with a small reading nook or desk-ish area. Thank you for hosting such an awesome giveaway!
The foundation of my house started caving a year ago and I had to raise it, gut it, and pour new foundation. It has cost an astronomical amount of money, but I’m now ready to make it livable. I’d love to transform the living area space in the basement into something beautiful!
I tweeted: https://twitter.com/deidrehop/status/786297467792822272?lang=en
Oh please pick me! We sold our couch and moved into a new house with the intention of buying something new when we got moved in. Well it has been one thing after another and now we have an empty living room. Literally there is a camp chair in my living room right now.
My kitchen needs help! I would love to do a makeover!
My master bathroom needs a makeover really badly.
My master bedroom could use a makeover! Of course my kid’s rooms are adorably put together but our room is suffering! A gift card would be awesome!
Our master room is in need of a desperate make over. I envision a large cozy area rug, a bench at the foot of the bed and some new lighting on either sides of the bed would bring our room together. With kids, our needs seem to go to the way side.
I’d love to makeover our bedroom!
My kitchen is in desperate need of a makeover! I need to put in back splash, add artwork to the walls and install new counter tops.
https://twitter.com/yarbr012/status/786305892778184704
My small living area in my beach studio apartment. I love HomeGoods and purchased a rug from there for my area but it wasn’t the best choice for the space. It would also be nice to organize the space a bit more – less clutter, more organization, clean space!
Our upstairs loft definitely needs some love! It currently houses our old sofa and entertainment center from our old house – updating is desperately needed! Love your nook!
Great idea! I love little sitting nooks like that. Would love to see the whole room finished so I can see what it looks like with the buffet too! I would personally love to work on our dining area. I really want to frame some pictures from our travels to brighten up the dark space!
The baby’s nursery! I’m due in 7 weeks, but there’s quite a few “finishing” items that I’m looking for to polish off the decor. 🙂
I have a sunroom that I have struggled with decorating. A trip to Home Goods could be a great start.
Love home goods it’s my favorite store but so dangerous because I can never walk in and Out without buying something! My second bedroom is in need of a makeover as it just basically a storage room right now!
So I would love to redo our Master bedroom – new bedding, maybe a reading nook? The ideas are endless!
I would love to decorate my reading room – the room in my house that is just for me!
Our home needs an update in pretty much every room. We newly purchased it a few weeks ago so the budge will be tight for awhile.
I am undating my house to bring it into this decade. 🙂 I’ve been working on my great room and kitchen. Next, I am starting to attack the dining room and powder room. My favorite store in the entire world, Homegoods, will be my starting point. Thanks for the chance to win.
A new rug for the family room would be perfect to start updating things.
I would love to do something to our living room! Everything in it is TAN, the carpets, the walls, the couch, bleh! I’m dying for some grey walls and pops of color. And some storage to keep my 2 year old’s toys from taking over everything the room!
What a fun, non-traditional way to use a dining room! I am so drawn to these dedicated coffee spaces… I might need to make a coffee nook of my own.
Living room!
My daughters room! Cute coffee nook.
My daughters room!
Such a fun space, and really like the gray colors you chose.
I would love to spruce up our master bedroom. Love the flowers the are a great touch!
I love the way you put this space together! I just moved into my first apartment without a roommate, so I have been doing a lot of decorating/furnishing lately. I would love to finish out my living room with a trip to HomeGoods!
It would be so awesome to win a gift card! My living room is in desperate need of a sprucing ?
My master bedroom needs a refresh the most! We moved into our home at the beginning of the summer, and it’s all coming together except for the master!
I just bought a fixer upper, so every room needs something, but I’m really trying to finish my living room!
We are about to move to a house twice the size of our current house, so I will need all the decorating help I can get!!
Our living room is in DIRE need of a good makeover!
Our bedroom is in desperate need of a makeover! As newlyweds, it has become a catch-all for our personal belongings and doesn’t have an “us” factor–yet!
My daughters bedroom. Her dad is 95% done building it and every little bit helps! We love Homegoods! Thanks for the giveaway!
We just had to put our dog to sleep after 14 years his week. I just can’t stand to look at the furniture he layed on every day. I want to redo the entire room. My first project will be to paint the room a bright, cheery color.
We recently moved to NC from NY..and now have an extra (guest) room. But It really needs some help to feel less throw together when someone stay with us! Thank you!
I would love to be able to finish the guest bedrooms. I’ve recently moved and would love to be able to add additional decor and furniture to them.
Would love to win. Definitely have a few rooms that could use a makeover!
My dining room is the only room in our house that didn’t get a facelift when we moved in last year – so it’s begging for a little help!!
My kitchen/dining room is in dire need of a makeover…and I absolutely LOVE Homegoods! Such great finds!
Adorable! But that’s not surprising.
The HomeGoods in Brier Creek has a cycle of adorable buffets that I’ve been dying to purchase. My husband just made me an awesome farmhouse table for our dining room that also serves as my “office” while I’m in grad school. My vision is to add a buffet to store all my books, supplies, printer, etc. so they’re not an eye sore and to be something I could re-purpose after I graduate!
Our office desperately needs a makeover.
Love, love Homegoods! I could shop there every week and walk away with something fabulous.
https://twitter.com/willgriesmer/status/786366534008451072
We moved into our new house about 7 months ago. Our dining room has nothing but a rug in it. My dad is helping us build a farmhouse style table for it, but this poor room needs some serious love and lots of new decor.
we are moving to a new house – all need makeover!!
I desperately need to get to HomeGoods! We are working on our nursery and it would be so nice to have some extra money specifically for this occasion.
The shelves on my built ins in my living room are so bare they’re pitiful!! They need some attention & I love homegoods!
Our master bedroom could use a makeover. Or a nursery in the next year…hopefully!
My son recently moved to his own apartment. That leaves his room empty 🙁 I would like to convert it from a young man’s room to a guest room. A gift certificate to Home Goods would give me a great start!
Ahh! Kate, this is absolutely adorable!
I have been searching Pinterest for every way I can decorate on a minimal budget like mine. I’m a single girl with a lot of bills, so I nickel and dime wherever I can. I live in an apartment that is a multi-family house, so the vents are shared. Unfortunately my neighbors are people who smoke (a few things) and being an allergy sufferer, I have isolated myself to my bedroom frankly because it is easier to manage to ion/ air purify/ candle scent/ diffuse essential oils in one small space to keep the neighbors recreational away from my nose. Long story long, my bedroom needs to be my happy, zen place, especially because I am almost quarantined to it! I’m in need of some essential items to help the atmosphere and really make my bedroom a place that I can relax after working a long day. I’m such a homegoods fan, but can’t always afford to shop there. This would be such a treat! Sorry for blabbing and I’m such a giant fan of your blog. Any time I get a compliment on how I style my hair, I always have to give Kate @ thesmallthingsblog.com a giant shoutout for teaching me everything I know!
Your coffee nook looks great! I love HomeGoods! I shop there all the time for my house. My “office” could really use some help. It’s not so much an office as it is a “catch all” room. It’s got one desk and one table, a short filing cabinet, a large closet filled with my craft supplies and overflow from the rest of the house and almost all the walls are adorned with sports stuff and my husband’s golf stuff. Like I said, this room could really use some HomeGoods magic. 🙂
Our master bedroom is in desperate need of being “finished”
Awesome!! We just turned our dining room into a casual reading room instead. I’ve never had the desire for a formal dining room with crazy expensive furniture we’ll never use and will just collect dust. Love your coffee bar idea – maybe I should start drinking coffee! We have a second-floor open loft that needs attention. Thinking of turning it into an office/craft/homework station. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Homegoods. A new one is opening really close to me in the next few months which could be a very dangerous (expensive) thing for me. Currently, I have to drive over an hour to get to one.
My basement has become just a storage room but I would love to transform it into a family space. A place to watch tv, listen to music and do our hobbies. A gift card would really help give me a jump start.
My “office” aka the spare bedroom- it is basically a catch-all room for junk!
My bedroom! We bought our first home in June and haven’t been able to do any decorating. It’s all white walls and plain furniture for us so far. Even our dresser is bare topped!
I LOVE your “new” room! Ans, I SO LOVE Home Goods/TJ Maxx! They are my go-to for decor every single time!
And not ans ?
I just bought a new house and every room is in dire need! I’m pregnant with my first baby so the nursery is my focus for now.
Would you mind sharing the paint color of the walls?
Thanks for sharing…
I’d really like to finish up what I started in the basement. That would be a fun spot for my teenage son to hang with friends.
New couch and loveseat coming in November. I need some Home Goods $ to finish the space off.
Moving so each room is going to need all their own little home-y touches! Such an exciting, but long process. Trying to hurry it up as we are in Pennsylvania and don’t want to get stuck moving in winter weather!! Looking forward to getting the chance to start off in a fresh new place & decorating has always been something I’ve had a knack for! Can’t wait! 🙂
I love this nook! My husband and I are in the process of looking for a new home but our bedroom would DEFINITELY be the room that needs a makeover. I love the marble, gold, and grey that you have put together. It looks classy and modern!
Just got married and finished building a house. Would love this opportunity for a room sitting empty!
My bedroom is in desperate need!
I would love a gift card to help spruce up our master bedroom!!
My master bathroom is in desperate need of a makeover. I started removing the wallpaper last spring, and we have come to a standstill after that. Thank you for your post!
First, thanks for your great content.
I just moved into a new apartment and I’ve been on your blog a couple of times, just to pick up some decorative ideas. I was thrilled to see that your latest post was about this as well!!
I would love to warm up the kitchen and bedroom a bit, and create an inviting feel for the entry-way and dining room.
Thanks for your lovely posts, as usual!
Best of luck!
Right off the front entry I have this very LONG room but don’t know what to do with it. Its got a fireplace, a entry into the kitchen and french doors that goes to the back of the room. *sigh, we’ve only lived in the house for a year and it still remains empty or becomes our catch all for things we don’t know where to put them at yet.
Our dining room just looks sad, we need more furniture, updated chairs, and so much more!
I tweeted too!

We just bought a home in July and we have several rooms we need to tackle, but I’d really love to give the bathrooms a fresh look! This would help!
I would love to redo our Living Room!
My living room really needs some help. Love what you did in your coffee room.
My eat in kitchen needs a makeover! The table is older, dinged up, and black (a color I DO NOT advise when you have young messy kiddos eating at it – milk spots and finger smears).
Hi! I would love to redo our living room. New lamps and stuff to hand in the walls would be totally awesome! Thanks!
I would love this!!! I love your site, Kate. Thanks for all the beautiful inspiration!!
My spare room is in dire need of an update. It’s a catch-all right now would love to organize it and make it a storage/office space. Thank you for this wonderful giveaway!
I would love a makeover for my 16 year old son’s room. Due to financial issues, he has never experienced what it’s like to have a room that is truly yours. I’d love to give that to him!
My mudroom needs to be revamped now that I have 2 kids!
Ooh, really love how the coffee nook turned out! Gravy seems to approve as well. 😉 Our basement decor could really use some sprucing up, it is lacking considerably in the “style” department! I’ve been wanting to turn a corner of it into a home office so that would definitely be how I would use the gift card!
My living room needs a makeover. I would like to add more color to this space.

So many rooms need a makeover – our office and mud room/laundry room are in desperate need!
I would love to work on my living room!

I would love a makeover for our bedroom. It’s the last room in our house to get finished and really need some TLC.
Love the way you did your space! I have a Home Goods near me but not on my “regular path” so I forgot about it until this post. And boy do I have a project going on! My husband was a carpenter by trade and does beautiful work but our projects take a back seat to health concerns. I’ve dubbed the most recent project “our 5 year remodel” but I can see daylight and will need 2 nightstands – soon! Will put Home Goods at the top of my shopping list – hopefully with a prize from this entry 🙂
I would love to transform my living room. New rug, pillows, and lamps.
My bedroom needs some organizational help. It’s kind of a dumping ground and not relaxing like it should be.
I would love to re-do our guest bedroom. Right now it contains a bed, but the rest is simply a “staging area” for the rest of the house–forgotten/unwanted/broken furniture, random books and pictures, etc. I love Homegoods and would of course love a Visa gift card to get started! It would definitely motivate me to haul some of that old and broken particle board from our early 20s down to the curb!
I’ve been wanting to create a gallery wall on an empty wall in my hallway with photos, shelves and other little mementos, and freshen up my living room decor, and this gift card would be absolutely perfect for that.
I have a couple Home Goods near me. Oh what room doesn’t need a makeover. I would love my bedroom made over but it’s not a room that everyone sees so I would have to say the living room. It’s in dire need of some sprucing up. The room is sort of a combo living/dining area as we redid the kitchen and opened up a wall (we did it ourself). We have yet to repaint and the room is just outdated.
We have a new little one and the sisal rug in the living room is way too rough and scratchy. We need to replace it soon and the ugly ceiling fan above it!
Oh my! I love the look of everything in your sweet home, it’s perfect!
Me and my fiancé just moved to our family farm, with that comes a home we moved into; however, it has not been touched in 4+ years. Plenty needs to be done, but for now the master bedroom would be a great start! It is very out dated, my grandparents lived in it (so its older). I really enjoy fresh and light, much like the farmhouse feel!
Thank you for this opportunity.
It looks great! We JUST got a Homegoods in my town, so I’m heading there soon!
Our laundry room is in desperate need of a makeover.

This looks so great! I would love to try at Home Goods makeover. My dining area is in desperate need of some style. We just have a collection of hand-me-downs that don’t really reflect our tastes and I would love to make it a space that we like to hang out. Thanks for the giveaway!
my bedroom is in need of a makeover. it is so stale.

My dining room needs a makeover! It isn’t horrible, but we basically put our dining room table and one other piece of furniture in that room and said “Good enough”. It has no style or ‘pulled together’ look to it. I’d love some curtains, wall art, or a rug to help center the room and make it more attractive.
My guest bedroom is in desperate need of a makeover.

My bedroom really needs a makeover. I’m not good at decorating, but my daughter is, and she’s helped us with some ideas for updating our home.
Our spare bedroom could use the help. I was intentionally leaving it empty with the hope that it would turn into a nursery. It has been about 2 years (seems like forever) with no need for a nursery yet. Every time I walk past the room the idea of a nursery seems to taunt me. Maybe if it had a different purpose it would help.
Thanks Kate For the opportunity. I love reading your blog.
My sun room has been empty for 4 years. I would like to turn it into a craft room where my teen girls can have freedom to sew and work on projects! I want to inspire creativity in my children in an easier way than making messes on the kitchen table! 🙂 would love to win this to purchase a cubby organizer for crafts!
Both our family room and master bedroom can use makeovers. Thanks so much.

Thanks again.
My bedroom is in desperate need of a makeover! Mismatched furniture and not formal bed – just a mattress on. Frame
Our breakfast nook could use a makeover. The table and chairs are about 30 years old, there is no rug, plants, anything. Thanks for the giveaway!

Where did you get that buffet for your coffee bar?? I love it! I am dying to do a coffee bar in our kitchen!
That’s an easy one. My living room. It’s long and its hard to figure out what kind of furniture to buy and where to put it.
My bedroom definitely needs a refresh. It could use some dressing up!
Love this makeover and your style. I would LOVE a chance to do a Homegoods makeover in our townhouse. We bit off a little more than we could chew when buying our house and have had to pump the breaks on any and all decorating due to budget restrictions. Crossing my fingers we have a change to dress up the house, soon!
I love the coffee nook table! So chic! I am also loving that sideboard – I was wondering where you got that…was it HomeGoods as well? I am looking for a similar one with the sliding doors since out dining room table doesn’t leave much space for doors to swing open!
Our home office desperately needs some sprucing up! Right now I would say the theme is “black desk sitting in the corner”. 😀
I could spend ALL day in Home Goods! Definitely one of my favorite shops!
My living room needs a makeover…BAD! Love Home Goods!
Our living room needs a makeover — some new throw pillows, different lamps, and a fresh paint of coat! 🙂

I would love to remake our living room. We have been in our house for 9 years and most of the furniture in that room is hand-me-down. Don’t get me wrong I love free but lately that room looks well hand-me-down. This gift card would be a great help!
We just added on a much-needed additional bedroom, and I would use the card to help decorate it ?
I would finish my Dining room. It is functional but, incomplete. I would like to make it look nicer and complete.
Love your coffee bar! Currently, the only thing in my dining room as well is a coffee bar that I have been slowly creating. My husband and I have moved to 3 different states in the past 4 1/2 years for his schooling/job. Since we are both students and very busy we never could really afford a dining table or really had the same schedules to sit down and have a proper dinner together. Now that life has settled down quite a bit and we are going to be in the same place for 3 years I would love to “redo” our dining room and start enjoying meals together and with friends!
Our bedroom needs some help badly! My comforter is so old & the curtains are too dark – I could use some help!! Thanks for the giveaway! Your room looks fantastic.
Our bedroom needs to be brought into this decade! All other rooms in my house have been updated except this one. Nada done to it in 14 years! 🙁
Love home goods and would love to win! I just moved into a new place and would love to decorate!

I love the way your sitting/coffee room turned out! It looks great and will be so functional.
I can’t stop obsessing over the sidebar and the rug. I need both of those!
My office needs a makeover. I have papers everywhere that need to find a place where I can find them.

I love this! So cute! 🙂 My living room could use some sprucing up 🙂 A new couch wouldn’t hurt! 🙂
My formal living room needs a makeover! ugh…. we just don’t use it and i would like to turn it into half reading nook and half play room for the kids! Love your neutral color palette, just need a little pop of color! haha I have been loving the golds, greys, and whites lately!
We recently moved and I want to fix up my coffee nook also!
I truly need a new living room area rug! I just love the one you chose.
I love HomeGoods! Such small additions made a big difference to your room. Looks great.
I love your coffee nook! My bedroom could really use a makeover! Moving 4 times in the first two years of marriage really limits you on the things you can buy 🙂
Our kitchen/dining area could use a makeover! We’ve lived here for two years and have yet to get a rug for under the table and put anything on the walls!
The family room desperately needs a makeover and I would love to redecorate it. It is more functional than a fashion statement. It doesn’t really have a cohesive style at all and the whole room is pretty worn out from lots of daily use.

Love it! Great color scheme, too. We just moved to Evergreen, CO from Wisconsin…so this is a bit of a change. Our “new” house was built in 2000…and it looks like it! Beige (errr some mauve!) canvas to work with. We see so much opportunity here…and expert advice would be fantastic! http://www.carried-away.net ….tbd
Thanks for the chance to win! I love your coffee area – love the chairs! My dining room area would be the space I would change. We hardly ever use it and I would love to change it to an office area or another small sitting area in our house.
Our dining area in our open floor plan house needs some serious attention! We have a hand-me-down table and china cabinet. I keep toying around with the idea of painting the furniture to change things up a bit…maybe a new rug or wall art would help too?!
My dining room is ridiculously bare. Would love this to kick-start my plans!
There are several rooms in the house that could use a makeover, but the one I’d call “desperate” is the kitchen. So much stuff, so little organization! I’d love to have a good storage solution so I could reclaim the countertops.

I would love to add some life and color to my bedroom. It is pretty bland right now.
My eat in kitchen area needs a makeover! It is a hand me down table and chairs that is not my style and the light fixture for sure needs swapping!
I’d love to be entered into the contest. thank you!
Oops, I forgot to say which room. 🙂 The kitchen and nook area need an update!
