Spring is officially here so I thought I’d give you a tour of my spring decor in my home. I’m joining several other bloggers to share our homes with you all week long! We worked with Kirkland’s who let us pick a few items from their store to help decorate. How fun is that? You’ll find…
Today is a very special day because I’m featuring the home of a popular and highly talented blogger … Kim of Savvy Southern Style! I’ve been reading Kim’s blog ever since I started blogging and am always amazed by her creativity and ingenuity. Her home is gorgeous and her spirit is sweet and genuine. It’s…
Spring is definitely in the air here in the Midwest and I’m celebrating the start of the season with a few of my favorite bloggers from both the U.S. and Canada! (You’ll see links to their inspirational spring decorating at the end of the post.) I was in the mood to create a spring tablescape in…
When I look back on my years of home ownership and apartment renting, I realize that there is one decorating staple that’s remained consistent in my life. Flowers. Pink, purple, yellow … it doesn’t matter what color. Having flower arrangements in the home is a sure way to perk up a room and lift the…
This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group®, PEOPLE®, and Real Simple® but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #SpringintoMeTime http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV Spring is on its way and is officially here on Friday, March 20th! This past week we’ve been blessed with lots of sunshine and warmer temperatures….
This coming Friday marks the first day of spring so today I’m bringing you a beautiful cottage style house filled with sunshine and spring colors! This charming home is located in Santa Ynez (Saint Agnes) California, just north of Los Angeles. I found this light-filled beauty on Houzz. Farmhouse Living Room by Santa Ynez Media…
I have to be honest … I wasn’t sure whether I would write this post about my trip to Cozumel. Don’t get me wrong, I had a great time! I just don’t want to be one of those people that shows photos of their vacation to anyone and everyone who will listen. But if a…
Spring weather beckons all us Midwesterners to come outside and shake off the cabin fever, which is exactly what hubby and I did today. When I got home from work we went for a walk and it was soooooo nice to see the buds on the trees and the first robins of the season! It’s…
Open shelving in the kitchen can be quite charming, but it’s not without its faults. Since everything is out on display, you can’t just shut the door to hide a mess. You’ve got to keep things neat and tidy … or maybe not if you don’t care that it looks messy. On the flip side,…
Promise me you won’t laugh but … one of the toughest decorating decisions for me is selecting pillows! You would think it’d be easy. Pick a color in a pattern that you like and you’re done, right? That’s exactly my problem though. I love so many colors and my rooms are pretty neutral that I…
When I hit a home decorating creative block, I have a few sources I turn to for inspiration. Pinterest is one of them! The other day I was searching for spring crafts and came upon the cutest birdhouses made out of scrapbook paper. I’ve always loved paper crafts and thought these DIY paper birdhouses would…
{ Smitten } adj. very much in love Smitten is exactly the word I would use to describe how I feel about today’s charming home tour. It has all the appeal of a farmhouse coupled with the style of Pottery Barn! You can easily tell that Diana from Our Vintage Home Love pours a lot of care…
Spring is the season of pastels … soft color, soft sunlight, and the wakening of the world from its slumber. The faint hues of spring prepare us for the riotous smorgasboard of colors in the summer. I love spring and everything about it! Even the gentle rains that freshen the earth. An annual springtime ritual of…
It’s time once again for “Swap It Like It’s Hot!!” Charlotte at Ciburbanity organized a thrifting swap where we purchased something at our local thrift store and sent it to another blogger. That blogger then turns that “trash” into “treasure” and we’ve been sharing all week. Today it’s my turn! Jillian from I Am a…
Is it spring yet? We still have a few weeks before welcoming the new season and today I’m participating in a spring printables vignette party that my friend Kristen from Ella Claire coordinated. You can visit all the other ladies in the party (links at end of post) for plenty of spring decorating inspiration. I’m sharing a…
Spring bulbs are some of my favorite flowers. They hold a promise of warmer, longer days to come! I found some pretty bulbs at the store and decided to group them together in one planting in my new enamelware bowl to create an easy DIY spring bulb arrangement. Narcissus, fragrant hyacinths, shamrock plant, and creeping moss…
