Inside Kelly Moore’s Bright, Inviting Home
This house simply makes you smile. I couldn’t resist House Crashing Kelly Moore’s delightful home to share the warm, stylish details. You may know Kelly from her popular photography blog or her streamlined line of camera bags, but touring a home reveals so much more about how someone lives and creates. Let’s begin in the kitchen.
Kelly and her husband built extra-thick homemade concrete counters and documented the process in a tutorial. The space balances charm and function: painted cabinets, an apron-front sink, and stainless appliances come together in a fresh, approachable way.
The upper cabinets are painted Sherwin-Williams Alchemy, while the lower cabinets wear Sherwin-Williams Grandiose—Kelly couldn’t choose a single shade, so she used both. The island, sink, and open shelving are from Ikea, and the rug is by Dash & Albert, sourced locally from Chartreuse Pear in Ruston, Louisiana.
One standout detail is the smoky glass tile backsplash, a refined and slightly dramatic touch that elevates the room. Kelly chose it from Lincoln Flooring in Ruston, adding texture and glossy color that pairs beautifully with the concrete counters.
The living room continues that effortless mix of comfort and style: a welcoming sectional and a plush round ottoman create a cozy conversation area. These pieces—sourced from Haverty’s and Overstock—sit before a rustic brick fireplace beneath lofty, airy ceilings.
Small, thoughtful accents—like a dramatic mirror from Pier 1—give the room personality and invite you to linger. The overall effect is warm and lived-in without feeling cluttered.
I can easily picture curling up on that sofa with a good book; the arrangement practically begs for quiet afternoons and relaxed evenings.
The dining area is equally inviting: a paneled ceiling and simple bulb pendant lights from West Elm hang above a farmhouse-style table from Material Things in Monroe, LA. Ikea chairs and picture ledges keep the look casual, while a bold folk-art cow painting by Erickson T. Wright adds a playful focal point.
Across the home, Kelly expertly blends rustic elements with clean, modern lines—stainless appliances beside an apron sink, and a sleek sectional against a weathered brick hearth—creating rooms that feel both stylish and comfortable.
Kelly isn’t afraid of color. The master bedroom is painted Sherwin-Williams Kimono, a bold, saturated hue that feels lively and personal. The chandelier is from West Elm, the bed from Ashley Furniture, curtains from Walmart, and bedding from Kohl’s. The space reads as confident, cozy, and cheerful.
Her daughter Posey’s room is playful and educational at once. Bright wall paint (Sherwin-Williams Hot) frames lettered animal decals from Blik and an oversized map from Urban Outfitters casually layered in front of the window. Fun details like L-O-V-E pillowcases that form the word with hand-shadow graphics add charm and creativity.
Kelly’s home is a thoughtful mix of handmade details, well-chosen furnishings, and colorful personality. Thanks to Kelly and her family for letting us peek inside—this tour shows how creativity and comfort can coexist beautifully. What’s your favorite feature? Mine is the glossy glass tile in the kitchen, the oversized sectional, and little Posey’s playful room.
