Easter Mantle
Neutral Christmas Mantel
Hello my friends! It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in Kansas! It is bone chillingly cold here today. It gives me the perfect excuse to stay inside and get some work done and some Christmas wrapping started. I have some Michael Buble Christmas music going and a hot cup of cocoa. The pups are trying to help me wrap, and they are less than helpful. I'm a little behind on showing you my Christmas decor this year. Honestly my tree hasn't changed much since it's so expensive ...

Decorating with Thrifty and Vintage Finds
Hello my friends! I'm so excited about this month's monthly challenge, which is Decorating with Thrifty and Vintage Finds. If you follow my blog at all, you know that this one is near and dear to my heart. My hubby and I got married young, which meant we had zero money when we started out. Back then, I decorated with vintage pieces and vintage furniture that I picked up at yard sales out of necessity ... not because it was the trendy thing to do. Back then I would be jealous of my friends' ... VIEW POST
How to Transition From Christmas to Winter Decor
Hello my friends!! I know I've been missing for awhile but I've had a little lack in motivation since we got back from the cruise.

I know you are thinking I am a total slacker ... and you are right! We left for our cruise on the 1st, and we didn't have time to get it down before we left. Then we got back on the 11th, and it took all we had just ... VIEW POST
How I Shopped My Home to Decorate for Fall
Happy Monday everyone!! Hope you had a great weekend! Sadly, I turned one year closer to the big 4-0, but I did have a great day. I started off the morning by going to a great vintage sale where I scored some great goodies. If you want to see them, head over to my Instagram account. My mom then made me a big lunch, and she made it all fancy ... even bringing out her china. It was nice having the whole family there, and I'm pretty sure I watched my one year old niece eat her body weight ... VIEW POST

Fall Mantel
It has been a rainy dreary day here in Kansas. Of course we would finally get rain right when I needed to spray paint some pumpkins. There was a little iffy window of time today where I got it done. So the last time you saw my mantel, I had just completed my fall stenciled garland, and it looked like this. ... VIEW POST
