Melonie Graves
Thanks for visiting The Mellionaire House! My name is Melonie, and I’m a 30-something advertising and marketing professional, with what my friends call a knack for making things beautiful all around me…a flair, if you will. It’s how I got the nickname, The Mellionaire. I met my husband through a mutual friend after graduating from Florida State University (Go ‘Noles!), and we started our lives together in my hometown of Tampa, Florida. We’ve been blessed with three incredible littles. Our oldest daughter is quite the serious dancer, who keeps us running to dance competitions and jet-setting to conventions and intensives every year. We also have the two adorable boy/girl twins who are busy being 5-year-olds who love to challenge us and test our limits every single day. They are truly “mini-me” versions of my husband and myself. We go pretty hard all year round, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Some of my absolute favorites are the color purple, college football, the Fall season, and decorating for Christmas.
Sharing our journey of making our house a home
This blog is my creative space to share the journey of taking our new construction house to home. I hope you’ll find inspiration for styling and decorating your home, entertaining, and the occasional DIY tips and tricks.
If you’ve ever felt completely overwhelmed when trying to decorate your home, welcome to the party! I’ve been there before too, but learned over the years that decorating your space doesn’t have to be stressful at all. I believe that your home should be a reflection of who you are as a person or a family, and if you focus on those things, it tends to come together quite nicely. And there are so many cool resources out there to help that don’t cost any money at all! So thank you for visiting, and if hang out with me, I’ll share all these fun things with you.
