Hello Friends! I’m teaming up with some friends today to share some Easter inspiration, and when I looked back through my blog, the last time I shared something for Easter was in 2016! Now, I know I don’t typically share decor for every holiday, but I decided that 2016 was far too long. So today I’m sharing a sweet spring tablescape that could be just the inspiration you need for hosting this Easter.
This idea stemmed from the last 2 interviews I’ve done, they’ve both asked me this very question. And while I shared a short abbreviated answer there, sometimes it’s nice to have a little more details, or insight perhaps, as to how I came up with the name, and why I chose to stick with it. I guess I should start off first by telling you that I hate naming things! Or having to come up with a name. Seriously, I’d rather do the dishes after Thanksgiving dinner than to come up with a catchy, yet descriptive and very permanent name for something! Talk about pressure.
I love getting outside after a long cold winter, and planting new plants is such a refreshing feeling with the anticipation of warmer days that comes with Spring. While I still may have a ways to go in my gardening skills outside, I wanted to re-create a gardening party tablescape, by incorporating terra cotta pots, filled with blooming bulbs.
If you caught my spring mantle yesterday, than you may have noticed the addition of a new table lamp on my buffet in the dining room. I mentioned that the white lamp we used to have in the dining room, is now in the kitchen on the antique dresser. I used that lamp in our dining room on our buffet quite frequently, so I needed to replace it with something quick. I decided to give some older lamps a little makeover, so today I’m sharing just how I did that.
Hello Friends!! It feels so good to finally be writing posts about spring! Even though we just got about 10 inches of heavy, wet snow on Monday, my heart is soaring knowing that Spring is really coming, especially with day light savings being this weekend! I can’t wait for longer days, and warm sunshine, and all the sounds of nature waking up after a long winter. Today I’m joining in with 28 other bloggers as we share how we decorated our mantles for spring part of the Seasonal Simplicity Spring series.
I can remember a time when I didn’t know what Farmhouse style was. Heck, I don’t even think Farmhouse was an option of a style you could even choose from. Nowadays it seems to be everywhere. Before, if you wanted farmhouse style you could had to DIY your own decor to get the look, because most of its’ signature pieces were only found in certain parts of the country. European grain sack fabric, original tobacco baskets only found in the south, antique dough bowls, dusty galvanized buckets. Now you can head to just about any home decor store and find those items on the shelves.
Vignettes make my heart sing! I’m not quite sure why exactly I’m drawn to them so much, but I have been creating vignettes long before I knew that’s what they were called. I would come home from school and spend hours in my room arranging my knick knacks into little vignettes on my dresser and my nightstand, and find myself so content. It’s one of the first things I like to do welcome in a new season, so today I’ve rounded up some inspiring spring vignettes to share with you!
Hello Friends! There’s nothing like doing a little Spring DIY to get you in the mood for Spring. Our temps are still in the low 30’s, and even though they appear to be stuck there, I’m willing my way into Spring with the decor inside our home. I’ve had this hanging basket for a few years now, but decided to give it a little makeover to freshen things up for Spring. Come and take a look!
Isn’t it crazy, when you change up a space or look at an area in a new way in our homes how refreshing it can be! As promised, I’m back today to share with you just how I gave this dresser a makeover to get the look you see today. Just wait until you see the Before!
