This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of McCain Foods, Inc. The opinions are entirely my own. I’m noticing a trend in my life right now. More time spent on holiday preparations and less time cooking, which means grabbing snacks or meals on the go. Do you ever get so caught up…
Today I have a fun and simple Leaf and Cork Banner for you to make using my free leaf printable. It’s a quick and easy project, which I needed since I’ve been getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Have you noticed tasks always take much longer than expected? I could use another 6 hours in every day! Luckily…
Happy Sunday Friends! It’s time for another charming home tour and I’m super-excited about this one. I think you’re going to love Heidi’s bright and airy home today. She blogs at Home by Heidi where you’ll find her creative style and joyful spirit. Heidi’s living room is … well, perfect. It’s easy to see the…
Thanksgiving is just four short weeks away! Are you ready for it? This past week I joined fellow bloggers to bring you 29 Thanksgiving table settings. Each one is beautiful and unique in its own way. I thought I’d gather them all together here in one post for your convenience. I visited them all and…

Georgian style homes are noted for their classic symmetry and today we’re taking a tour of this beauty located in the canyon. Georgian style was very prevalent in the U.S. from the 1700s through the Revolutionary War. I think you’ll love the clean lines and traditional styling of today’s charming home tour from Tim Barber…
The third weekend of October is upon us and that means the riotous colors of fall are reaching their peak. Local farmers are selling their pumpkins and gourds and I love that I can just down the street and stock up on more pumpkins. I was just working out in the yard and while one…
Although this post is sponsored by Welch’s® Frozen Fruits, all opinions are my own. Kids are back in school, the grass doesn’t need to be mowed as frequently … you’d think life would be less busy now that summer’s over, but no. I feel like fall season is full-on party season. There are football games,…
Today’s charming home tour features a fellow blogger! I love her traditional style and use of color throughout each room. Barbara grew up in a little town outside of Philadelphia and moved to New Jersey as an adult. She loves decorating and her friends like to call her “Martha.” It’s easy to see why when…
When I was a young girl I thought gray was a boring color. It wasn’t fun and happy like pink or yellow. But now as an adult, I appreciate the drama and comfort of this sometimes moody hue. Today I’m sharing ideas for decorating with French Gray, which is actually a greenish gray. This Old…
Before you know it, the holidays will be here and it’ll be time to set a pretty table. Today I’m happy to join a group of creative bloggers to bring you a round of tablescapes to give you ideas for a holiday setting. Of course, you don’t need a special event to set a nice table….
A recent trip to World Market changed my decorating plans for the family room. I found a beautiful object in the store that I admired, and noticed happily that it was on sale for 50-percent off. I told myself I didn’t need it and kept shopping. But it haunted me. Halfway through the store I…
Today we’re traveling across the pond to Ireland to visit an adorable modern cabin in the woods. While you might expect a cabin to be a bit rustic, this one successfully flaunts a bit of mid-century style. Award winning designer Egon Walesch Interiors and Flowers is the creative mastermind behind the fun and charming living…
This month I’m joining 30 talented bloggers to bring you a handmade Christmas ornament every day. We’ve each chosen a day to feature our ornament, and today it’s my turn. I made a few Mini Christmas Box Ornaments that are super easy and don’t take a lot of time. And when you’re done checking out…
This weekend is going to be busy so I’m popping in with fall decorating inspiration from several of my blogging friends. Every year when I look at their fall home tours I’m even more impressed than I was the year before. It doesn’t seem possible, but the creativity level of my fellow bloggers just seems…
One thing I feel like I’m not very good at is choosing furniture. I tend to work with what I have or what I find at a flea market or resale shop. I force things to work together (sometimes awkwardly so). But lately I’ve wanted to create a more cohesive look, even if it means I…
