Share Your Style #16

Hi Everyone, welcome to Share Your Style!!
So glad you're here.

Hard to believe this is JUNE!! Summer is here and I'm hoping that the Midwest Monsoon Season is over. All we've had is rain and clouds and chilly. I'm always excited to see what's new out here in blogland, and when I saw this post I was so excited to find a product that I didn't know existed. Check out the Brick Wall Pot Rack from Liz at Home to Cottage. You'll love her great storage idea, and find the latest in wall makeover products.

Last week I shared some pics from a few fun shopping places here in the Ozarks. I also changed up my little wicker seating area in the kitchen and then shared an article about the real cause of heart disease. If you have a family history or know someone who does, you'll want to read it.

Amanda is our host this week. 

So let's get on with the party!

AMANDA'S FEATURED LINKS:

Dining Delight shared a lovely summer "display in a tray" for our outdoor soiree.  She had me at the gorgeous aqua lanterns!

The North End Loft has put together a wonderful tour of her rustic garden.  I envy her super green thumb and look forward to trying to implement some of her planting ideas in my own garden and beds!

It's no secret that I adore an ice cold Coca-Cola!  Well, Curly Crafty Mom has made my favorite drink into an over the top treat with her chocolate Coke recipe!

Stone Gable has six great tips for creating a welcoming outdoor space.  I think she hit the nail on the head with this one!!

Change-up in the Kitchen Sitting Area

Yikes, it's June and it's that time once again...

The week before Memorial Day I was ready for a change in the sitting area of the kitchen. I thought about bringing out my Patriotic things and be ready for July 4th, but I just wasn't ready. It's been a long rainy Spring, and I was craving something that just looked like "Summer".

Knowing the Truth...

...about the real cause of Heart Disease.

I'm going to be honest from the get-go. This is not a post about crafting a beautiful floral heart, but it's something that I'm very familiar with, and something that I personally, have to take very seriously. And so should each of you. I wanted to post a pretty picture, so you would know where my intentions are coming from. I'm posting this because I care about you all, and it's important information that you should all be aware of. Not for yourself only, but for your husbands, parents, children and grandchildren.

A visit to Sandstone

Phone pics...I have a love/hate relationship with them. On one hand, I'm thrilled to have a way to capture images in my favorite shops spur of the moment, but on the other, mine are less than desirable straight off the photo roll. I took these images a couple of weeks ago when we were in Joplin. I'd never been to Sandstone Gardens, and it was a beautiful experience. The garden/green houses on each side of the main retail area were enough to make me want to come back. Oh, and the restaurant provided a wonderful lunch in French Country ambiance.

Share Your Style #15

Hope you had a great Memorial Day Weekend. Ours was wet and soggy, but we spent that time getting some work done around the house. I'm so glad you're here to join in on Share Your Style. Let's see what happened last week.

Robin from Happy at Home is my feature post this week, where she shared her new wall grouping in her Living Room. Her wonderful hand made "Flowers" sign and two botanicals that she framed, look perfect here. 

Last week I posted about an easy way to lighten up a Living Room for Summer,  Painting a Jelly Cupboard to fit into my space, and then how a little serendipity reunited me with an old family cemetery. 

Now, here's Ron, our host this week:

Hi y'all!

It's my turn again to host this great weekly soiree. I hope you will continue to Share Your Style with us.

I spent the Memorial Weekend in my "happy place", Grand Isle. The unofficial start of summer is here, and I am most excited that my summer will be here in just two days.

This is me and my cousin Monique outside Kajun Kastle at age 7, 40 years ago!!!! Do you like my flowered raft???

Do you have summer plans? This summer I have trips planned to Perdido Key, Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, and Palm Springs. I cannot wait to share the adventures of Uptown Acorn coming soon....

Thanks to all of you who shared your style with us last week. Here are a few of my favorites:

Southern State of Mind shared her beautiful foyer transformation. 

You must see this chair redo from Decor to Adore.

I am a lover of white flowers and silver. Ramon of Rowhouse Blog shared his favorite combination with us.

Meatloaf and Melodrama shared this idea for summer cookies, flip flops. I adore these so much. Brilliant!

Who doesn't love a good summer cocktail? Life In My Empty Nest shared the delicious sounding Simple Cranberry Margarita. Cheers!
