AHHH so much is going on over here! We closed on our HOUSE YESTERDAY so we are OFFICIALLY homeowners!! Construction starts tomorrow *insert happy dance*
We have been

process is easy breezy.
Through all the
running around and excitement I found out that I was nominated for the Liebster
Award! Alexis over at alexisnickcreates thought that my blog was worthy enough
to receive the nomination, which is just BEYOND! So thank you, Alexis ;)
The Liebster Award is
actually really awesome. It is an award given out through the blogging
community. It is given to bloggers BY bloggers as a way to not only let bloggers
know they are doing an AMAZING job but also to shed light on different blogs and
introduce readers to different material. The blogging world is just getting
bigger and bigger so it is great to make blogging friends and uplift,
encourage, support, and push each other to do our best!
We are FAMILY!

11 Questions from
Alexis
1.
Where is your favorite place that you have
traveled to?
My
husband and I went on our honeymoon to the Bahamas. We stopped in Free Port and
that was possibly one of the prettiest places I have been to. It was an
underdeveloped city but had such a chill vibe. It was so relaxing. Not to
mention the water was ice blue!
2.
What is your dream career?
I
would LOVE to blog and design homes for a living! I currently nanny and sell
home décor which I love but I am starting to get the itch to want to begin
designing more spaces for people.
3.
Current favorite artist (musician, designer,
painter..)?
My favorite artist of
all time is Salvador Dali. He has been my favorite artist for years!
4.
Do you keep your phone on ringer or vibrate?
I am a vibrate kind of girl! That sounds dirty as I type it
out, but yeah no ringer for me.
5.
Who is your biggest inspiration?
My biggest inspiration would have to be nature. That sounds
kind of strange when I say it out loud but as I sit outside writing this I am
looking at my in-laws backyard and I am getting so many different ideas for
different home designs.
6.
Why did you start your blog?
I love love LOVE home décor! I love creating beautiful
spaces that are budget friendly for the everyday person. I am a firm believer
in buying things old and used and bringing them back to life again. That is why
I started Rebely. I wanted to show others what they can be capable of doing in
their own homes without spending an arm and a leg!
7.
If you could only eat one food for the rest of
your life, what would it be?
OOOH, good question! Hard question to answer! Hmmm I would
have to say sushi. Is that cheating though because there are different types of
sushi? I love sushi though. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I
would say wine but apparently that isn’t a food (booooo).
8.
What social media platform is your favorite?
I really enjoy Instagram! My husband got me a new camera for
my birthday and I really like taking beautiful photos of different projects and
displaying them for my follower to see. I feel like they give inspiration to
others not to mention I get lots of inspiration myself from photos I see on my
Instagram feed.
9.
What is your ultimate goal for your blog?
I would really like to have my full-time job be blogging (along
with running my own store front). I enjoy it so much and I would love to be
solely doing that as a living and following any open doors it may lead me to
Lord willing.
10. Do
you prefer coffee or tea?
Iced coffee all day long, baby!
11. Where
is your favorite place to find blogging inspiration?

unique ideas. I love getting inspiration from there and making it my own!
