My garden is very casual and cottage style. I have fun creating separate “rooms” to meander through. And entering a garden through a gate is so romantic. Gerald built the picket fence in the garden, complete with a picket gate for one of the entrances. I had two old iron twin headboards that have been …
Summer has been flying by! (it usually does, unfortunately), and we have had an unusual amount of rain. Not good for swimming, but my garden has loved it. Now is the time of year that some of the annuals in the garden and in pots are looking a little overgrown and leggy. It’s good to …
I am so thankful for warmer weather, and the promise of Spring! It has been unseasonably warm here, and I have been loving it! I’m so ready to get out and get gardening! I have been keeping the decorating around here pretty simple lately. Using some vintage Easter post cards, and a few small Spring …
For my first post of 2021, I thought I would share a few pictures of my living room. As you know, I change things up, and around constantly. And these pictures will show that! But one thing that is constant, is cozy touches. Winter is all about staying cozy. I am not a winter person! …
I am so excited to be part of the Christmas in the Greenhouse blog tour! If you just came from visiting Rachel at the Ponds Farmhouse, and her beautiful greenhouse, welcome!! So glad you are here! Well, it has been quite a year..in more ways than one! I didn’t think I would even be sharing …
You know I love vintage. And I love a good DIY. But I am also frugal, and I’m going to admit it…lazy. I like crafts that don’t take alot of effort, money or time! These ornaments fit the bill. I love to collect vintage ornaments. And if they have paint chipping off, all the better. …
If you have followed me for awhile, you know that I love to add pink touches throughout our home. I also like to change things up and rearrange. Today I am sharing how I added some fall touches to the kitchen, using things I already had. One way to add warmth for fall is to …
I have said many times that I will paint just about anything. No worries though, Gerald and the kitties have been spared my paint brush, haha. I have painted walls, tables, vases, frames, and fabric….yes I have painted fabric, and I am going to show you how easy it is! Chairs are one of my …
I love chandeliers, and I have been collecting them for years. I also am very frugal, and it’s hard to find them at a price I am willing to pay. My dining room solid brass one was a steal at $40, at an auction years ago. It was stuffed into a cardboard box, and all …
Now that the hydrangeas are blooming, I thought I would share my summer porch with you. A few things stay the same..(the daybed, and porch swing)..but the linens and the furniture placement always change..haha I used a vintage chenille bedspread for the daybed this year. I have a hard time passing up chenille…this one has …
