The Seasonal Simplicity Summer series is back today; and this time we’re all about simple summer decor in our outdoor spaces! Patios, decks, backyards… bring them on! I can’t wait to take in all the gorgeous outdoor inspiration being shared today. I’m sharing our summer patio, and I can’t wait for you to see!
Hello Friends!! I can’t believe that summer is only seconds away! I say that because we are in our last week of school, summer temps are here… and the humidity, and with it just brings the much needed slowdown to a gentler pace. I’ll be sharing some more of our fire pit area on Wednesday for the last installment of the Seasonal Simplicity tour, and then our new outdoor dining area early next week! I can’t wait for you to see everything that’s we’ve done. In the meantime with all my planting, I wanted to show you my potting bench area and how I have it styled for summer.
Hello Friends!! Thank you so much for stopping by yesterday, and visiting my summer home tour! In case you missed it, you can hop over and see it HERE. You might have noticed one subtle change in our dining room – new curtains. If not, don’t fret, the ones I had before were white, and these ones are still white…

Hello Friends! I’m so excited to be joining in the Seasonal Simplicity Summer Series tour this week!! This week different bloggers are sharing their summer home tours every day, which unlike other weeks in the series where we just share one day out of the week, this week is jammed pack full of beautiful summer home decor inspiration.
Hello Friends!! I’m so excited to be sharing our Master Bedroom refresh with all of you today. I think you could say it spurred off of our recent master bathroom makeover. I’ve joked before that once I have a paintbrush in my hands there is no stopping me, lol! What started out to be a little refresh sort of turned into quite the makeover, and I think you will see why. From new paint, to new lights, to a new mattress with new bedding (yes! a new mattress), even my nightstand ended up getting a total overhaul (shown HERE), nothing was safe. However, I will say that having a newly refreshed master bedroom feels so good, I honestly never want to get out of bed, but more on that soon! You may remember me sharing with you some Dark Accent Wall colors I was loving lately in a post HERE. I had been craving some change for quite some time, and a moody wall. Well what was only going to be just a dark accent wall, turned into a whole room being painted, even the doors and trim! Take a look –
Hello friends!! You may have heard me say this once or twice before, but I love throwing open the windows and doors in our house, and letting that warm summer breeze blow through our house. It’s so refreshing, but there’s one thing that tends to blow in that I’m not a fan of. As much as I love all that summer brings, I do not like the summer bugs that come with it. I realize that a summer without bugs is pretty much impossible, especially in the country, but there is something that makes it alittle easier to deal with. If you’re like me you probably don’t realize you need something to kill those pesky flies until you go to reach for it and it’s not there! I know I’m guilty of that!
Hello Friends!! I have the easiest summer recipe for you today! Trust me, this takes no time to prepare, and makes such a tasty dish for any summer gathering. I’ve also teamed up with a fantastic group of bloggers as we all share 20 of our favorite summer recipes, part of the Seasonal Simplicity tour hosted by Krista from the Happy Housie.
If you follow me on Instagram, than you may have seen some sneak peeks of a little master bedroom makeover I’ve been working on! Honestly I was just ready for a change, and a dark moody color. And since our master bedroom isn’t very big, it makes painting the room pretty easy.At first I was thinking of just painting my nightstand dresser a lighter color since the walls are a new darker color. I was just about ready to do so, and figured I should at least see if I can sand off some of that paint and uncover raw wood. And you know what?! I did just that.
Hello Friends!! I’m so excited to be joining in on the Seasonal Simplicity tour again, this time around for the summer series! I loved joining in on the spring series, and it’s always so much fun to see what everyone comes up with. I love having loads of inspiration all teamed up together in one place like this. Today we are all sharing our summer mantle’s with you. You remember my Spring Mantle with faux plants and terra cotta pots. Since I don’t technically have a mantle I decorate in our house, I use my buffet in our dining room to create seasonal vignettes. It’s a great spot because you have to walk through our dining room to get to any other room in our house, so it gets lots of visual activity.
