Hello amazing friends!! It's hard to believe tomorrow is the first day of Fall, but our front door and I are ready! I am so ready for some cooler days to head our way, and not only did our front door get an update, I also added a little Fall flair! First here is our front door before: We strive so hard to get that "weathered" look for furniture pieces and such, but this authentic weathered finish just wasn't doing this door any favors. Any guesses what color I decided to paint it … [Read more...]
Neutral Fall Tablescape {& Five Minute Napkin Rings}
September 20, 2016 by
Hello sweet Friends! Thanks so much for the wonderful birthday wishes! If you stopped by here on Friday you saw what I was greeted with in my front yard, thanks to my sister. You can see it here if you missed it. Her birthday was the day after mine and I knew I had to immediately get her back. Here's what I did to her: She got up at about midnight to peek out the window to see if her son's car was home yet, and couldn't believe I got her right back! Ahh so fun!

Hi Friends! Have I got a fun post for you today! It's time once again for Swap it Like It's Hot hosted by the very fun Charlotte of Ciburbanity! This challenge is where we go to the thrift store and find a bunch of crap, then send it to another blogger to make over. In turn we also received a box of crap, only my crap was good.
