If you truly want to make a statement in your space and want to create a feature wall, I’d suggest starting with a single wall and trying a stone veneer. It’s easy to install and makes a huge impact in a small space.

I also love using throw cushions with animal prints on them to bring a light and airy feel to any space.

I love to add rugs to really tie a room together. Carpet tiles allow you to mix and match a pattern and shape to make your space comfy and cozy.

There is nothing like a cozy little nook on a rainy day to cuddle up in. Find a big comfy chair and some toss cushions and you are all set. These pillows are from my collection and can be found on

Let’s also not forget about our furry friends! They too need a great place to snuggle up on drizzly days!  Jo Alcorn Pet Collection.
