Painting Faux Fall Leaves

Hi Friends, are you about ready for September?

Faux florals, branches, and dried naturals are my favorite way to change things up for the seasons. So, one of the first things I do when going from Summer to Fall is to tweak my faux floral arrangements. I mentioned a week or so back that I was putting together an arrangement of white sunflowers in a new ceramic vase for the Entry.

All About Home Link Party #3

Hi Friends! So glad you're back with us at the new All About Home Link Party, that celebrates everything that you've been up to at your Home. We hope you've had a great week, and ready to start a new one with some great inspiration.

Botanical Prints in the Hearth Room

Hi Friends, I hope you're having a good weekend, I just wanted to share a quick post about some little vintage Botanical prints I just got around to hanging this week. I've been thinking about what to do with them for months. I finally decided I could make a commitment, so I jumped on in and had Hubby grab the hammer.

Late Summer Baker's Rack

I gave myself a little challenge...

and that was to create a late Summer/ early Fall Baker's Rack using colors of the season,

without using Pumpkins. So instead of any kind of squash or gourd

 I used another Fall Favorite; Pears.

All About Home Link Party #2

Hi Friends, it's the beginning of a new week and time for the second installment of our new Link Party, All About Home.We had a great turnout for our first party, and we know that each week we'll be growing as more people find out we're here. Thank you so much to all of you that came to link up for our first party, and for those that shared a link and a shout out! We appreciate you!

Fall Decor Stash and New Finds

Last Winter and early Spring before the move, I spent days going through all of my seasonal decor tubs and I purged so many things that I didn't use. I tried to get things a little organized and labeled, making mental notes of what was in what container. It's easy to recognize that I love Fall decorating, since  I have more Fall decor than all the other seasons hands down.

All About Home Link Party #1

Hello, Hello, Hello!!!

Garden Room with Sunflowers and Ticking

Hello Friends! I've had a few posts where I've added some Sunflowers to the decor, so I thought I'd share the latest in The Garden Room on the church pew, and a few more pics of the Farm table with Sunflowers in the Ice Cream Bucket.

Exciting News...it's "All About Home"!

Celebrating Summer with a Mini Home Tour

Hello Friends, Welcome to Celebrating Summer, 

a Blog Hop hosted by our sweet friend

  Amber from Follow the Yellow Brick Home. 

As Summer winds down through the month of August, there's still time to enjoy the warm weather, family time, and a few delicious alfresco dinners. Last year this time, we were just starting to pack for a big move and readying ourselves for a year of home renovations. I really hadn't been able to enjoy last Summer at all, so this year I've been thankful for having a home and outside spaces that have been fun to decorate with flowers and plantings, to relax in, and basically get back to "living life".

August Mantel and Hearth Room

Hello Friends and Welcome to August!

I've mentioned before that August used to be my least favorite month of the year. Oooh, I felt bad that I gave it such a bad rap, especially since ALL my husband's family had birthdays in August. (strange...) It's just that I really get tired of the hot weather by now, which is usually dry and oppressive, and the older I've gotten the less able I am to handle hot weather. But a couple of years ago I had a change of heart in my attitude.
