weekly table centerpiece – summer vibes
Happy Thursday, friends!! It’s good to be back after my little break! How was your Fourth of July? Although life is a little different this year because of COVID, we had a great holiday weekend! I hope you did too! As many of you know, especially those who follow along with my Instagram page, I love to have some sort of centerpiece on my table alway, and always!!! I think it would be fun to show you my weekly centerpieces from time to time. This week, my centerpiece is all about the summer vibes. Flowers, teacups, gold lanterns, and the sweetest little bunny taper holder. Isn’t that little bunny taper…

The art of flowers
Happy Thursday, friends!!! I’m so excited because today’s post is all about flowers! I absolutely adore fresh flowers, and love to have them around my house always and always! Today, I’m going to show you two arrangements that I made. Both are completely my style, and yet they are so very different from each other. First, a vintage basket full of one single type of bloom, Viburnum, also known as snowballs, fresh from my garden. I love arranging fresh blooms in containers that aren’t necessarily made for flower arranging, such as baskets, buckets, boxes, crates, etc. Gather your fresh blooms, a container, and some sort of vase/container that can hold…

How to easily fix broken caned chairs – DIY
Happy Monday, friends!! I hope y’all had a wonderful weekend! There has been a lot in the news lately that leads me to believe that we’re headed in the right direction, COVID is starting to slow down, and hopefully we will be out of quarantine life sometime in the near future. Yay!! Today, I’m so excited to show y’all how I fixed some caned dining chairs, that I found a while back, on the FB marketplace. Funny thing is, I didn’t actually realize that the caning was broken, until my husband picked them up for me, and brought them home. But, I wasn’t going to let that stop me! I…

Easy Easter table centerpiece
Happy Saturday!! Tomorrow is Easter, I can hardly believe it! I put together a simple Easter/spring centerpiece and wanted to quickly show y’all, because maybe some of you are still looking for a little inspiration for your spring/Easter table. I knew that I wanted fresh flowers, and my husband was already going to Trader Joe’s for groceries, so I asked him to pick up a few flowers for me. Remember, just a few weeks ago, when it was ok to run to the store whenever you wanted?!! Hopefully life gets back to normal soon! He picked some pretty pink flowers (roses, carnations, and hypericum) and of course, my favorite, eucalyptus.…

French Vintage Friday ~ vintage flower frogs
Happy Friday, friends! I hope y’all are doing well, staying healthy, happy, and safe! Today, I am sharing something that I use all the time in my decor, old flower frogs! They are the perfect card holders! I just love these little cuties! And to think, they’re made for flower arrangements, I LOVE flowers and making arrangements, and yet I’ve never used them for their intended purpose. Kinda funny! I hope y’all have a lovely spring day, full of sunshine! Now, let’s hop over to Tara’s blog to see what she is sharing today! Simply click on the picture below… I am thinking of you all, and continue to keep…

Song Birds and Spring Flowers
Hi friends!!! How are y’all handling all of this craziness? It’s hard to know exactly what to think all of this. I stocked up on groceries over the weekend, and have no plans of leaving my house for a while. School has been canceled, but nothing has been sent out about what to do for homework, so we spent most of our day outside, enjoying the nice spring weather!And, of course when I’m home, I’m usually creating, because it brings me so much happiness! So while my boys were playing with their legos, I put together a fun little centerpiece for my table… Ever since I built this table riser,…
