I’m finally starting to get in a spring-y mood. I’m ready for a little color. I’ve been seeing this gorgeous blue-green color everywhere and I am craving it. I did a faux patina champagne bucket in a similar color and I love it. Some of these trendy pottery pieces can be really expensive though, and I’d […]
Why I felt a blue chicken was necessary.
So a few days ago I shared a makeover I did on a little plant stand. I put a little wooden chicken in with the flowers, but he wasn’t really showing up against the color of the house… so I thought he should be blue. See? Now he shows up against the house. He was […]
Spring planter makeover (& how it looked like Shrek until I added a chicken.)
I know that 2/3 of the country is being ravaged by winter weather, but here in So Cal it has been really mild. So much so that it was time to do a spring planter to put by our front door. A few months back I spotted this guy, just sitting on the curb. He […]
A spring birdcage planter.
On Monday I shared that I would be appearing at my local Michaels store this coming Sunday (just like 99 other Hometalk bloggers across the country) and making fun projects at a Pinterest Party. I am going to be making another project on Sunday, but I wanted to share a fun little project I whipped […]
Want to spend more time outside…? Is your patio ready?
I am so ready for warm weather and spending time outside! How about you? We are in Southern California and we use our patio a lot, and truth be told, it’s lookin’ a bit tired. A few fun pieces could brighten it right up. One only needs to spend a few minutes on Pinterest to […]
Refreshing the house for spring. Lighten up, already!
Even though the calendar says it is spring, much of the country is under several inches of snow. Brr. We don’t have that problem here in Southern California, but I’m still itching to lighten up around the house. I’m ready to bring in some color and some more light. I realized one of the things […]
A lampshade? In a floral arrangement? Why not.
I’ve been changing out some of my lampshades. There are a couple that I really like but are too small for the space. Don’t laugh at me, but I didn’t want to put them away yet, so I used them in a floral arrangement. I love the chunky rusticity of them, and the shape kind […]
Chalkboard eggs: an easy (last minute) DIY project for Easter Brunch.
Last week I shared a tablescape for an early Easter Brunch. I realized there was something missing… Place cards. I quickly whipped up a couple of fun DIY chalkboard eggs “place cards” using plastic eggs and chalkboard paint. I know it’s only a few days until Easter, but this is super fast and easy […]
An easy spring centerpiece: Mossy Branch with paper Buds
Yesterday I showed you a tablescape that would be nice for a little Easter Brunch, especially since Easter is coming so early this year. I wanted it to feel a bit like springtime is just beginning to warm things up in the woods… which was perfect, since the big tree in our front yard was […]
Tablescape ideas for an early Easter Brunch.
Is it just me, or is Easter coming super early this year…? I feel like I will have just laundered my green “Kiss Me, I’m Irish” T-shirt and suddenly I will be needing to fill Easter baskets. In thinking about Easter Brunch, I was wondering how I was going to make it happen since I […]
