Back in January, after I finally finished putting away all of my Christmas decor, I was left with a blank slate on the Farmhouse Hutch in our kitchen. I change out the decor here seasonally and I also use this hutch to display some of my vintage collectables. One thing that I love to collect…
I am so happy to have my living room decorated with spring decor. Now I just need Mother Nature to cooperate so that it will start to feel like spring here in Virginia. I did decorate for Easter but didn’t take the time to take pictures to share with you. Easter is packed away for…
We had quite the weekend! Harsh winds moved into our area on Friday and as a result of having downed trees on the power lines in our neighborhood, we were without power from Friday morning until Sunday night. It sure was great to finally have lights and heat! St. Patrick’s Day Vignette Last week when…
Welcome to Vintage Monday! Today I’m sharing some of my Vintage Easter Décor. If you missed last week, I shared my dad’s 1942 copy of The Tale of Peter Rabbit. You can see all of my Vintage Monday posts here. Can you believe that Easter is on Sunday? Even though Easter is later in April…
Welcome back to another week of Vintage Monday. I love sharing my vintage items with you. Today I’m sharing my dad’s 1942 The Tale of Peter Rabbit book. Recent Vintage Monday topics include several farmhouse finds and a unique laundry gadget. (So glad those are no longer needed.) You can read all of my Vintage Monday…
A group of friends recently gathered at my house for dinner to celebrate the birthday of a dear friend. I set the table with my best china and designed an easy spring centerpiece for the table that I think is quite pretty. Since this centerpiece doesn’t contain cut flowers, it will last for a long…
Happy April! I’m definitely glad to leave the March cold behind and welcome in April’s warm temperatures and beautiful blooming trees and flowers. Easter is less three weeks away and my house is decked out in Easter décor. Come on in for an Easter tour! The front door welcomes guests with a moss covered wreath…
Last weekend I had so much fun pulling out my Easter boxes and decorating my home for the season. My kitchen table was one spot that didn’t get a decoration over the weekend. While browsing the latest Southern Living on Sunday night, I spotted a centerpiece made for a children’s table that I loved. After…
To decorate my front door for March, I made a unique St. Patrick’s Day wreath. I used utility wire to make a wreath form in the shape of a clover and then I added Boxwood sprigs to decorate it. I love how this looks on our front door; it’s the perfect early March door decoration….
Several weeks ago I shared a pretty table centerpiece featuring Primroses. I’m ashamed to admit that in less than a week three of the Primroses died because I neglected to notice that they needed water. The lone survivor is now on the counter near my kitchen sink in a fresh pot and is doing quite…
Marty from A Stroll Thru Life is hosting a cloche party as a part of an Egg-xellent Spring Party and I thought it would be fun to participate. I’ve had most of my Easter decorations out for a few weeks now because I love them and want to enjoy them as long as possible before…
A little color in the house was just what I needed to lift a mild case of the winter doldrums. A quick stop at a local nursery yielded four Primroses, the perfect amount to make a pretty centerpiece. Last month’s Southern Living had an article on Primroses and they recommended enjoying them inside and then…
