Yes, You Have To Try This EASY and Surprisingly Delicious Three Ingredient Bagel Recipe This Weekend

3 ingredients bagels // easy bagel recipe // three ingredient bagel recipe // bagel recipes // self rising bagel recipe // bagels in under 30 minutes // bagels // bagels recipes // no yeast dough // no yeast bagels //
Bagels are a weekly occurrence in our house. We usually like hitting up our favorite NYC neighborhood spots with delectable cream cheese options but since we're avoiding unnecessary outings (and we order way too much takeout) I thought it would be fun to try taking a stab at making our own. 

...But after a quick look at the effort it takes to make bagels I lost my fire and decided to order takeout, again. I love to bake but I hate millions of steps - you lost me after the boiling. Just kidding. Kind of.

HOWEVER...

I found these after Jackie shared Breakfast Ate Tiffany's version back in March 2020. WHOA MAMA THEY ARE GOOD! I actually tried the recipe and took these pictures shortly after but never got around to posting - oops. But I recently found these shots in my vault and was instantly reminded of how good this recipe really is so I had to share it on the internets yet again... I think it originally came from Skinny Taste and has trickled down the vine of creation landing in my lap so I of course had to take it for a spin...

I promise you will not regret making these. The only regret you might have is eating too many (never) or not making enough - either way you HAVE to try these. 

They're super easy to make (the kids did most of the work), only require a few ingredients and require no yeast or boiling. WIN. 

Let's dive in to making some bagels this weekend, shall we? 
3 ingredients bagels // easy bagel recipe // three ingredient bagel recipe // bagel recipes // self rising bagel recipe // bagels in under 30 minutes // bagels // bagels recipes // no yeast dough // no yeast bagels //
- 3 Ingredient Bagels - 
(yields 8 bagels)
2 C. Self Rising Flour 
2 C. Greek yogurt 
1 Egg

Optional: 
Everything Bagel Seasoning
Pinch Of Salt 

2tsp. Baking Powder if you opt to use a non self rising flour*


Preheat oven to 375˚

 1. In a medium size mixing bowl combine flour (salt - optional) and yogurt. Mix with a fork until combined. It's a going to be a bit crumbly in appearance. 

2. On a flour dusted workspace add the dough and knead dough until tacky to touch (not sticky: doesn't stick to your hand). If it starts to feel sticky add a little more flour. 

3. Cut the dough into 8 equal balls. 

4. Roll out each dough piece into ropes and connect at the end. 

5. In a small bowl whisk egg and add a couple of tsp. of water to create an egg wash. 

6. Top each bagel with egg wash and desired topping - Everything Bagel Seasoning in my case. 

7. Add bagels to a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and bake for 25 minutes. 

*Let cool for 10 minutes before digging in and adding a heap of cream cheese 

...or whatever you love to enjoy your bagels with.

Give Your Bedroom An Instant Upgrade With Lush Textures and Bright Printed Bedding From Annie Selke

A bedroom should be your sanctuary.

First, let's flashback to three years ago when I worked with Annie Selke to add a few pops of color to our old tiny little space. It was such a fun project to create and I'm still obsessed with the yellow rug and dot sheets. They always have fun prints, luxe textures and the quality is unreal. Even after 3 years of heavy wear the that yellow rug is still going strong in the kids room...

 Now, we're partnering to give my bedding a much needed total overhaul! I knew Annie Selke's lush textures and bright colors would instantly brighten up our moody jewel-hued room in the best possible way. After we painted the space I knew our current bedding just wasn't going to cut it anymore, I need something that pops and can magically coordinate with the rest of the house. Then, I randomly opened an email from an Annie Selke newsletter and there it was staring right at me. The print, the colors and that linen texture piled on top of that luxurious velvet. SWOON. I knew it was meant to be so I ping'd Annie Selke to collaborate once again, this time on our bedroom. Of course the rest is history. 

After over 6 months of painting, diy-ing and patience I could not love this space more right now. 

Let's talk details! 

Annie Selke and I did a lot in this space and I think it shows. Everything from the runners, to the curtains and throw pillows. I even snagged a couple of pairs of pajamas to make it fully complete. 

First, the Simba Jute Runners

I love a jute rug and this is the perfect size for the space on both sides of the bed. I usually steer clear from neutral rugs but I really wanted something with a 'natural' woven texture and knew jute would pop flawlessly with the jewel tones and soft pinks. Also, I love how it feels on my feet. (Size 2.5 x 8)

Next, the Lush Linen Curtain Panels in Slipper Pink

I have been on a mission to ditch the metal blinds that came with our place and I finally did it! These light weight curtain panels instantly brightened the room and added a softer vibe the second we hung them. We opted for three to span across the wall and conceal the back door. They're not light-blocking which I avoided because I love seeing the bright morning light through the huge windows. The curtains turn it into an incredible sight however as they themselves illuminate and fill the room with a warm, diffuse glow. (Size 108 x 55'') 

Matte Velvet Juniper Quilt in Queen Size

I've been wanting a velvet quilt for our bed for who knows how long but this color and *extremely soft* one won me over the second I put it on the bed. It's not too heavy and is absolutely the coziest thing I've ever had on my bed, ever. ALSO: that color. We got matching shams in the standard size.

Kenly Linen Duvet in Queen Size

This print stopped me in my tracks when I saw it on the email newsletter and I knew it would look phenomenal with all of the colors in the room. It's a little on the heavier side but the quality and texture is simply stunning. We've been swapping it from above and under the velvet quilt and they're all so pretty together. I'd like to think of my bedroom as a colorful Rorschach test now...

Parisian Velvet Evergreen Quilted Euro Sham

I knew we needed an extra pop of green to play off the blues and bright corals in the room and these dreamy velvet shams did the trick. You first caught a glimpse of them in the living room during the holidays before making their way to their home on our bed. I definitely love a bed full of pillows and this is the perfect amount before becoming too much...

Last but certainly not least, the Kenly Linen Decorative Pillow
Annie Selke Bedding // Annie Selke // Annie Selke Kenly // Annie Selke Matte Juniper // Annie Selke Simba Jute Runner // Annie Selke Parisian Velvet Evergreen // Colorful bedrooms // Jewel tone bedrooms // rainbow bedrooms // bohemian bedrooms // linen and velvet bedding // velvet bedding // blue and orange decor // blue and pink decor // green and orange decor // Annie Selke Lush Linen Curtains in Slipper Pink // Plants in Bedroom // Ikea furniture hacks // pink and blue bedroom // pink and blue styling
Can you ever have too much print? No. So yes, we needed more of the Kenly print in the way of a gigantic lumbar pillow. It's so cushiony soft and the fringe detail is really what sold me. 

Todd approves...(but also all these colors together)

Brighten Up Your Room With A Pop Of Color In Under 5 Minutes When You Try This Quick and Easy Tulip Arrangement

It's Almost Tulip Season! 

I love when tulip season rolls around in NYC in late March / early April. Walking down Park Avenue past rows and rows of color lining the street. Central Park, Washington Square and Madison Square parks are instantly glowing with fresh new life as the blooms get brighter and brighter with each day. It's the first sign of spring in the city after a brittle cold and overcast winter. And while it's been quite some time since I've made it out of my tiny little alcove and to my favorite spots I figured it there's no better time to line my apartment with little pops of color in hopes of an early spring.

I ordered a few bouquets of Tulips and got to work strategically placing them in every corner and crevice  I could fit them. After seeing them in the same old vases with the usual arrangement I decided to hop outside of my routine and try something new. I can't help but love the results.

+ Lay the measuring tape flat and measure out your tall stems at 8-9 Inches, your medium stems 6 Inches and your small stems at 3-4 Inches. 

*I did 3 tall stems, 2 medium stems and 3 small stems in my arrangement. 

+ After the stems are measured out, secure with elastic and trim. 

+ I started with my largest stems and added them one by one to the right side of my vase. 

+ Next the small stems

+ Finally, the medium stems. 

+ Gently rearrange as needed. 

+ Add water to the bottom of the vase and you're done!

The Easy Way To Give Your IKEA Brimnes Storage Bed A Glamorous Upgrade On A Budget

jeweltone bedroom // ikea hack // Brimnes bed handle upgrade // blue and green bedroom // blue and green decor // jeweltone decor // easy ikea hacks // colorful bedrooms // colorful boho bedrooms // teal bedroom // navy bedroom decor // Clare goodnight moon // clare deep dive // bedroom with plants // ikea hacks // Annie selke bedding // Annie selke kenly // ikea brimnes bed upgrade
I love a good IKEA piece that grows with you. We got this Brimnes storage bed with the wardrobes around 4 years ago and I still stand by this purchase. Sure, I hate banging into the bulky handles (it's definitely caused dozens of bruises) but it's solid, holds a TON of stuff and does the trick for me. 

So, when we moved from our old place to our new I knew that I wanted to keep it around but give it a bit of a long overdue upgrade and finally ditch those handles. If you've been following along for a bit you know our wardrobes got a handle overhaul a few years back and then recently a lovely moody paint job when we painted the bedroom. It took a few months but we finally brought the bed up to the level of the rest of the room and of course it was worth the wait. 

We gave it a fresh coat of paint, Goodnight Moon trim by Clare and some new leather handles. I'd say this $400 bed looks a whole lot more expensive right about now..

I'll start with the painting which we found 100 times easier than the wardrobes and headboard. It's basically one big flat surface once you get the handles off. We started with a couple of coats of primer before two coats of Clare Goodnight Moon. We let it dry and touched up as needed. It was pretty quick and easy. 

Next up, handles. We wanted something that definitely didn't have sharp edges (my shin is ever so grateful) and opted for something a little more masculine but still worked perfectly with the rest of the textures and hues of the room. We initially had bought the leather to swap for the gold handles on the wardrobes when we painted them a few months back and never really got around to it. So we decided to do the bed first and then later the wardrobes if we liked it. 

Well, we love it and it was super easy to do.

All you need is a leather strap (ours was 72"in long and 3/4"in) and mirror screws.

Just take the original handles and measure the leather to be around that length. We opted for 10" to leave a little extra room for the handle to stick out a bit.

We lined up the holes of the handles with the leather straps and marked it out. We only wanted a little bit of leather on the outside of the mirror screws but you can obviously go with what feels right for you. 

Next add the holes and screw those babies in. You might want to swap out the screws for nuts and bolts that are the same size head as your mirror cap but that's going to depend on the drawer you're working with- you want to make sure they're secure without damaging the material the drawer is made of.

If I could do it over again I probably would opt for a wider strap like 1.5" - 2''in. - but I still love ours.

For me, artwork is a reflection of mood. The whim to rearrange furniture, move art and decor can strike anytime, so it's essential for me to choose pieces that can evolve with me- not an easy feat.

Meet Spacekit, a customizable, modular wall decor system.  It came to life when a group of industry designers specializing in live events had to shut down operations across the globe during the COVID-19 pandemic. They took the opportunity to pivot their 25+ years of experience into bringing their creative designs and modular, configurable products into art for homes. So, instead of creating stages for the Oscars, MTV or experiential retail environments for Nike, they tapped into another huge market -- home decor!

Give Your Old Ikea Rast Dresser A Brand New Life With Paint And New Hardware

You saw our green door on the opposite side of the bedroom, but what really needed some TLC was the corner next to back door to the yard. Oof! That space has been a hot mess since we moved in last year and it really needed some help. 

We've had a bookshelf, baskets, and other random furniture pieces in that corner but nothing really stuck and wasn't terribly functional. Also I hated it. After going back and forth about buying MORE furniture I decided to give up-cycling one more try with the IKEA Rast dressers collecting dust in the closet. The boys outgrew them almost immediately 7 years ago but because they are solid wood and in pretty great shape that it seemed like a mistake to get rid of them. Turns out, I was right and they're magnificent with a couple coats of paint and new hardware. 

Naturally because they used to belong to toddler boys they collected some crayon marks, dings and one of the knobs was falling off but hey it was just cosmetic. I ditched the knobs and after a smidge of sanding I gave it a nice healthy coat of primer before two coats of paint. It was a fairly quick and easy project lasting a mere couple of hours start to finish. I scooped up some new pulls from amazon for under $10 and let the paint cure for about a week before letting anything touch the surfaces. 

and VOILA! A brand new dresser...

Isn't she lovely. 

Now she houses our hammock during inclement weather, tiny shoes so they don't stack up next to the door and random gardening and outdoor supplies. It's the perfect petite size for the space and holds everything I need it to with a smidge of room to grow..
