BUILD YOUR OWN BED FRAME
06/01/2023
Since we were sprucing up the bedside table yesterday, I thought today I would reminisce about the time back in 2018 when we built a bed. It’s still the same one we use today. You’ll notice the bedding was blue. You see, back in 2018 I was hopeful it wouldn’t be long until we updated our bedroom. So I purchased blue bedding when we upgraded from a queen to a king bed. I had visions of a navy blue accent wall behind the bed. It’s now 2023. The walls are still the same green as when we moved in. Remodeling paying cash as you go takes time. Way more time than you think. But that’s okay. It makes it that much sweeter when it’s finally done. Back to building the bed. Did you know you can find free plans online to build just about anything you want? That’s how...

THANK YOU | MEMORIAL WEEKEND 2023
05/26/2023
Yes, it’s the unofficial beginning of summer and I could not be happier. But, let us remember the true reason for the holiday. Thank you to all who gave their lives for our freedom and bless those that have and continue to serve. We honor you today and always. It’s also officially red, white and blue season with Memorial weekend, then flag day on June 15th and finally the 4th of July just over a month away. The flags are proudly flying at our house and barn. I typically like to switch things up with my decor each year but two things never change in the summer – my front porch ferns with the American flags tucked in. I tend to go with whites, pinks and purple flowers for the summer. But this year I added red for the summer holidays. What do you think? Are the geraniums real...

POTTING BENCH | SUMMER 2023
05/22/2023
The annuals are planted and my potting bench is dressed for summer. I opted to go with mostly purple and green foliage in my pots this year versus flowering annuals. I painted my terra cotta strawberry pot black this year and added succulents instead of strawberries. I love their variation of colors. Until the back porch remodel is complete, my mosquito deterrent pot will live on the potting bench. The pansies planted back in March are still hanging on. Once the heat takes over, I’ll remove them from the mix. I enjoy being able to display my collection of terra cotta pots instead of storing them away in the garage. I personally think they are as pretty as the plants. I miss my rose wall from our old house. This year I decided to make this small south wall my new rose wall. My great-great grandma’s old-fashioned pink rose...
Who is ready for the unofficial start to summer? I am! Happy week before Memorial Day. We’re keeping it...
I used to get a spot in my home just as I liked it and then never changed it....
