A simple change...summer to fall...& a look at our new front stoop!

 Hi there friends...Happy Weekend!

Yesterday I made a quick change to the hanging basket on my front door. 

I took it from summer to fall!

 I had everything on hand in my storage room.

 This year I used all natural elements...this change only took me a about 10 minutes and I love the way it turned out!

 In this next photo you get a glimpse of how it looked all summer... simply filled with lavender....

also take a look at how our front stoop looked because it looks TOTALLY different now!

 We had flagstone added to the landing and steps.

 What a difference it makes!! 

We had our walk redone a few years ago in stamped concrete and they used an overlay on our stoop and stairs to match. With the winters we have had the last few years it caused it to chip...that won't happen anymore!

 LOVE LOVE the way it turned out!

 They added it along the sides too for a finished look.

 I chose to use solid pieces on the steps.

 Thanks so much for stopping by...have a great weekend!
I'm off to buy some mums and pumpkins!

New mattress means New linens

 Hi there friends...

Right before we went away I ordered a new mattress and box spring for our bed! 

Our old firm one was killing our backs!! 

Well we don't have that problem any more :-)

 

 It's nice not waking up stiff! 

We wake up feeling recharged from a good night sleep.

 The name on here fits! 

Sorry I had another full pic of the mattress showing the pillow top but I must have deleted it and I already had the bed made up with these fabulous new sheets that were offered to me by

Perfect Linens

They came while we were away...I couldn't wait to get the bed changed to try them out!

 I washed them first just like I do all my new sheets following the directions that came with them. They laundered beautifully!

You can see in the photo above, our new mattress is very deep and these sheets from Perfect Linens fit perfectly! 

Even the flat sheet was oversized...I had plenty of sheet to tuck under the mattress.

I was offered the Second Skin sheet set...and I chose the set with the double blue stripe.

 These sheets WON'T disappoint! 

They are so soft and cool to the touch and very light and airy to sleep under...I love them!

 Thank you Perfect Linens for this great opportunity...I love my new sheets!
Also the kind folks at Perfect Linens are offering my readers a $35 discount on your order...just use discount code Nesting35

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the 29th Share Your Style Party.  This is a party where you can share the projects you're working on, great tasting recipes, décor inspiration and so much more.  If you blogged about it, we want to see it!

My name is Kelly and I blog at The Essence of Home.  
I am your host this week.

When you share your inspiration with this party, you are also sharing it with all of these lovely bloggers too!

I have enjoyed looking at what was shared last week and I picked out a few of my favorites.

Simply Vintageous shared a home tour of a home for sale in MA.  It is beautiful in every way!  Too bad it's not in my budget though.

Ramblings of a Southern Girl shared how to make the cutest pumpkins using doorknobs for the stems!  I've never seen that done before, but they are so charming.

Super Mommy Club shared some creative camping recipes to feed the family.  Since Fall is just around the corner, I know a lot of us will probably go camping.  These recipes would be great to try!

Gwen Moss Blog shared her latest kitchen update.  Her kitchen is so pretty with the soft colors she has chosen.  Check out her pretty new table!
