    Thrifty Spring Decor for Your Mantle

    Recent­ly, I made a trip to one of my favorite thrift shoppes in town on a mis­sion to gath­er a few bud­get-friend­ly items for my Spring man­tle. I did­n’t want to go all out Easter‑y with bright eggs and bun­nies but did want a taste­ful yet fresh look to my space. After brows­ing the store for about 30 min­utes, which must have been a new record for me, I had a col­lec­tion of vin­tage prints, old bas­kets, books and some faux euclyp­tus stems. I also bought a old chip­py bird­cage and a sofa table, but that’s a whole dif­fer­ent thing.…

    Incorporating Vintage Elements into Your Spring Decor

    I am a suck­er for all things vin­tage. It is my jam. I see rust or chip­py paint and my heart real­ly does flut­ter and to answer your ques­tion, no I don’t think it’s going any­where in the decor world. In my Pin­ter­est search­ing, I found myself lin­ger­ing toward inspi­ra­tion that includ­ed nat­ur­al grass­es, flow­ers, moss ect. and decid­ed to gath­er a few of my favorites togeth­er for those that are like-heart­ed in their desire to mix in old­er ele­ments with the nat­ur­al beau­ty and new­ness that Spring brings. The pho­tos con­tain links to the orginal sources. Take this arrnge­ment…

    Vintage Valentine’s Day Mantle Decor

    Ok y’all. So I have jumped on the band­wag­on and decid­ed to add just a touch of love to my decor for Valen­tine’s Day. I have not giv­en it much thought in years past but I am real­ly enjoy­ing the chal­lenge of incor­po­rat­ing the “feel” of Valen­tine’s with­out so much of the reds ros­es and pink plas­tic hearts.  I cre­at­ed this look by gath­er­ing a few signs I had in oth­er rooms of my home and brought them togeth­er to cap­ture a cen­tral theme.

    Winter Decor from Amazon

    Late­ly, I have been try­ing to embrace the cozi­ness the house can bring dur­ing the frigid Win­ter months. It can get quite dreery and drab out­side and it can most cer­tain­ly drag your mood down, espe­cial­ly after the twin­kle lights of Christ­mas have fad­ed. But lis­ten, just because the weath­er may be yuck and unwel­come, that does­n’t mean you have to feel that way in your home. I am a firm believ­er in sur­round­ing your­self with what makes you feel good and hap­py to be home.  With that being said, I have been on the hunt for sta­ple peices and Ama­zon…

    Winter Decor Ideas for After Christmas

    Although it is 60 degrees and I have my win­dows open, win­ter sol­stice has offi­cial­ly arrived here in West­ern Ken­tucky. Lucky for me this year I have focused more on win­ter­ing my decor from the begin­ning of the hol­i­day sea­son. Aside from tak­ing the Christ­mas tree down in a few days there is very lit­tle I will have to do to tran­si­tion the home­stead into a cozy abode this winter. I hope you enjoy gath­er­ing inspi­ra­tion from these spaces like I did bring­ing them togeth­er. Each idea is unique and would be a won­der­ful win­tery addi­tion to your home. I…
