However, although the couple is recognized around the world, it is best known at their home (and Magnolia’s headquarters) in Waco, Texas. Therefore, it is appropriate for the city to play the role of host for their latest venture, Hillcrest Cottage.
Purchased and refurbished by Chip and Joanna, the historic home is a mountain of typical magnolia decoration ideas, from its versatile color schemes to stylish storage ideas for the kitchen.
So, especially if you’re looking for a farmer’s decoration idea, you’ll love these five important features, as we’ve done.

Glass cabinets are mostly difficult to maintain in a “clean” state, so you can disagree. However, with proper planning and containers for organizing your kitchen cabinets, this kitchen storage idea can provide a sleek, clean look that has been fully approved by Magnolia. In addition, allowing your eyes to move deep into the cabinet can make your small kitchen feel bigger. In addition, the glass reflects light to create a bright space.
“When things are out and there’s a cute container to hold the mess, it really cleans it up,” Joanna explains in the video. HGTV (Opens in a new tab).. “The more storage options you have, the better.”

The Hill Crest Cottage dining room is a great place to see the tips to expand Joanna Gaines’ space come alive. The dusty cobalt blue space is inside the cottage, so it’s naturally small in some places, but the corners rise as soon as you choose furniture. “In tight spaces, people think you have to get smaller, but I always like to go the other way,” Joanna tells in the video.

Despite its juxtaposition, this tip emphasizes the dining space in the Joanna Gaines way, while providing a comfortable place to eat, drink and relax. I also love the soaked colors in this small dining room. Great for creating a cozy atmosphere.

When decorating with antiques, you can do much worse than following the chips and Joanna’s leads. Couples blend different eras throughout the house, but their front door is one of our favorite examples of how to keep exclusive works up to date.
Joanna shared about the vintage toolbox she restored (Opens in a new tab) How the antique had a story, but “you are just giving it a new purpose.” This is the case for recycled seats and wall hangings, otherwise it gives the minimalist space a raw industrial look.

When looking for the best indoor plant for your space, it’s natural to start with a large statement piece (such as a Swiss cheese plant or Kencha palm). However, while these plants are always in the house, Joanna recommends adding a personal touch to your space by introducing greenery from your garden.
“Even when the seasons change, you can use the same idea of going out to the front yard and finding the green on the table,” she said in a YouTube video. (Opens in a new tab)..

Color soaking-the act of painting all surfaces with the same color-is one of the biggest painting trends today. However, this trend is characteristic of Hillcrest Cottage and is expected to withstand more seasons in the future.
Here, Chip and Joanna Gaines painted the bedroom walls, window frames, and bedside tables in cocoon-like dark blue. The colors suggested by psychologists are suitable for the treatment space. “The cooler colors, especially the less vibrant shades of blue and purple, help to reduce irritation and start switching off while providing a sense of stability,” says psychologist Lee Chambers.
