This post is sponsored by Antique Farm House, but all opinions are my own. After spending lots of time outdoors during the summer, do you find yourself in nesting mode once Fall rolls around? The combination of cooler weather and shorter days always puts me in the mood to make things cozy inside. I’m sure…
Would you ever live in a church, school, or maybe a barn? I have to give a lot of credit to architects and homeowners that can see beyond the four walls of a building and envision something spectacular. Today’s charming home tour is an amazing, renovated Victorian school that I found on Houzz (photos by…
Today I had planned on sharing a collection of dining rooms with you, but then I came across a beautiful, classic home tour and immediately switched gears. I hope you enjoy this gorgeous home with its relaxed style and time-honored architecture. I couldn’t resist sharing it with you! Eclectic Family Room by New York Photographers…
Wow! What happened to the month of September? It’s the 4th Friday of the month already and you know what that means … It’s Farmhouse Friday! We’re celebrating fall decor because so many people love the fall season and decorating in the warm hues of autumn. I’ve added a new cow print to this year’s…
Whenever someone asks me what my favorite room is, I always say it’s the kitchen. Not just for the way it’s decorated, but for what it means on a daily basis. The kitchen is where you provide nourishment for your family. It’s where loved ones come together during the holidays and special gatherings. And of…
Welcome to my Fall home tour! As a blogger, I love this time of year because there’s a lot of online parties to join. Today I’m celebrating Fall Home Tour week organized by Brenda at Cozy Little House. I enjoy seeing what my fellow bloggers are up to … there’s so much creative talent to…
Farmhouse style is my favorite home decor because it’s so practical and pretty. This fall and winter I’ve decided to add more farmhouse elements to our home … mostly in the form of farm animals. As I was unsuccessfully combing the store for farm-y wall decor, I spied a couple of decorative Kraft paper bags…
It’s late August and I’m no where near ready to usher in Fall, but I do love mums and autumn flowers so I had to bring just a few touches of Fall decor into my farmhouse kitchen. I love late summer as it transitions into the next season. Our vegetable garden is ready to harvest…
Over the years I find that I’m getting pickier when it comes to scouring our local flea market. I’m not really sure why that is, but our monthly jaunt to the market is resulting in me spending less money … which is a good thing. But during a recent treasure hunting episode, a dark farmhouse…
Today’s home tour is a special one for me. Laura’s blog at Top This Top That was one of the first I started reading and as I scoured through her blog for photos to feature today, I was amazed all over again at the beautiful work she’s done with her home. Her recent kitchen transformation…
Welcome to another edition of Farmhouse Friday! Today my fellow farmhouse bloggers and I are sharing our farmhouse porches. This year I’ve made the decision to keep my summer porch simple. In fact, I’m going to simplify the inside of my house too and will be having a yard sale later in August. But for now,…
Right around this time last year I gave away a $50 gift card to Antique Farm House. I like to do these giveaways as a way of thanking my readers. I truly do appreciate each and every one of you who stop by for a visit!! At Antique Farm House you’ll find plenty of vintage…
Summer is hot and humid here in Illinois so the color blue is perfect for cooling things down in our farmhouse family room. Blue also lends itself to a coastal theme which I’m slowly adding to the room. I’m also adding beach style to my son’s old bedroom and will share that with you when…
It’s Farmhouse Friday!! I love Farmhouse Friday which occurs the 4th Friday of each month and includes 5 other bloggers with farmhouse style. This month’s theme is the Farmhouse Kitchen and I’m super excited about it because Polder’s Old World Market is offering $350 worth of their beautiful hand-carved wooden chef utensils to one lucky…
On occasion it’s fun to set a cozy breakfast table for two … whether it’s for you and a friend, you and your hubby, or you and whoever. In my opinion, food seems to taste better when you have a nice place setting to stage it. Isn’t that why we like to go out to eat…
Lately I’ve been a wee bit frustrated because my kitchen is on the verge of chaos. I have craft supplies out on the table, my spices are tumbling over each other in the cupboard, and fruit is out on the counter because there’s too much stuff in the fridge. Sigh. But then something came in…
