Michelle's Home & Garden
Hi, I’m Michelle — welcome to Michelle’s Home and Garden in Illinois, where I share curated and collected design, decorating, and styling ideas. My focus is on creating beautiful, timeless spaces by blending new pieces with vintage and secondhand finds.
You’ll find timeless home makeovers, decorating inspiration, and creative ways to style your spaces so they feel collected and personal.
In the garden, I focus on flower and outdoor design — creating layered spaces that feel intentional and inviting. You’ll see garden styling ideas, inspiration, and ways to bring that same beauty and balance from your garden into your home.
With a background in visual merchandising, floral design, and global procurement, my goal is to inspire you to create a space you truly love — one that reflects your style.

I was looking through my garden archives this morning and found this shot. I know we’re all staring at a lot of gray out the window here in the Midwest, so I wanted to share a little 'summer sunshine' with you today! ☀️
It’s hard to believe this same space is my cozy winter sanctuary right now. I’ve been spending time in there planning for 2026. If you missed the 'behind the scenes' of how I’ve styled it for January, the link is below.
❓❓Are you already dreaming of what you're planting this year, or are you still enjoying the slow winter rest? I’d love to hear your plans! 👇😊💐

Finding a new spot for my childhood chair in the Garden House today. 🌸 There’s something so special about mixing pieces with a history into our current spaces. Do you have a piece of furniture you’ve kept for years just because of the memories? I’d love to hear about it!

I gifted this cute planter🪴 to my sister for Christmas, she bought an air plant for it. We laughed as the planter has great 1980’s hair now! 😂❤️ (you met Brenda in this video: https://youtu.be/veaZGyI2seY )

Hi friends! I’ve decided to take an intentional pause from our weekly Saturday video this week to spend time with family and recharge for an exciting 2026.
I’m using this 'studio time' to look back at our favorite moments from the last year and plan some beautiful new home and garden projects for the spring. I want to make sure everything I bring you in the New Year is as inspiring as possible!
I’ll be back soon, but in the meantime, I’d love to know: What was your favorite 'Hidden Gem' find or styling project we did together this year?
Wishing you a peaceful and Merry Christmas! 🎄✨ — Michelle
