Interior design trends, or trends of any kind for that matter, always fascinate me because the “experts” don’t always agree on what’s going to be the next big thing. As I was searching for upcoming decorating trends I found a variety of predictions, but there were a few consistent topics that I found from one…
First, let me wish all of you a Happy New Year! I’m hoping 2016 is better than 2015 … it was a rough year for our family. But more on that later. As you probably know, many bloggers share their top posts for the year. It’s a great way to look back and see what…

In just 16 days we’ll be celebrating Christmas! I haven’t bought a single gift yet. Have you? I need to do some serious shopping soon! I’ll blame my lack of present shopping on the fact that I’ve been busy decking the halls for Christmas. Today I’m joining a group of bloggers for the inaugural “All…
Twas 3 weeks before Christmas and all through the house … I’d be lying if I said not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. This week a talented group of bloggers were busily primping their homes for the inaugural “All Through the House” Christmas tour! Each day this week a different room is featured,…
We’re full swing into decorating the house for Christmas and right now, I could use a break from choosing ornaments and deciding what goes where. So it’s with a welcome relief that Sunday is here and it’s time for another charming home tour! Today we’re visiting Traci at Beneath My Heart. She has a light…
Yesterday Old Man Winter decided to dump his frosty self all over our neck of the woods to the tune of about 5 inches of snow. I’m not quite ready for it, but rather than wallow in my sorrow, how about a charming home tour instead? I think you’ll love Deb’s home. She blogs over…
Color and romance come together in today’s charming home tour! Anita at Far Above Rubies has infused her artistic personality throughout her home in a warm and welcoming way. She makes great use of space without sacrificing style! Anita’s romantic living room makes fun use of the color pink. Neutral walls and furniture allow the color…
Our fall foliage the past week has been so beautiful! I keep saying I’m gonna get out and take some photos but the days are whizzing by and I’ve been a bit busy working on blog stuff. I’ll let you in on a little secret … I’ve decided to start a second blog about something…

Welcome to another edition of Farmhouse Friday where a group of farmhouse bloggers gather together to celebrate our favorite decorating style!

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…
Today’s charming home tour is a bit of a trip down memory lane for me. I’m featuring the home of someone near and dear to my heart … one of the first bloggers I “met” even though it was a virtual meeting. But more on that a bit later. Let me start today by showing…
Crisp mornings, cozy sweaters, golden sunlight on colorful leaves … these are the signs of autumn … along with fallen Silver Maple branches cluttering our yard! We make a pile of all the twigs and branches and burn them in our fire pit for roasting marshmallows. And some of the twigs made their way into craft projects…
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.
