pineapples + burlap

The pineapple is having a moment.
Have you noticed?




Whether it's the real deal starring in instagram snaps...

or pretty porcelain versions serving as home accents...

or painted pinas featured in watercolor prints...

the Pineapple is having its time in the sun. 


...and on bar carts around the design scene...

You can even get a digital download on Etsy, like this one...

If you follow me on pinterest or instagram, you know I've been slightly obsessed with the design trend.  So, when I hosted a party recently, I found an excuse to decorate with pineapples too. 



A little gold + white spray paint transforms an ordinary pineapple into a work of art.




My daughter made this sweet little pineapple mosaic.  It worked perfectly for the occasion. (so cute, right?)




...And thanks to a pop-up shop by mintwood home, I found a pretty ceramic pineapple for my cocktail table too...




And there's nothing like a party to kick-start a diy project you've been putting off.  I had wanted to re-invent my very beat-up Ikea lack coffee table and finally made the time for a quick update.  The table was the perfect size + scale for my living room, but was frankly a hot mess (think peeling veneer).  With the help of a little burlap fabric + nailheads (and a little measuring + pressing)...the table is transformed.  You've gotta love a renovation that only costs $16 at the fabric store + a little bit of time and effort.




...Here's the finished renewed result...




What do you think of my refreshed table? 


Tell me, what trends are you obsessing about lately?


I hope you're having an incredible Autumn.
