~Changes~

Hi Friends...I wanted to share the little change I made to the shelf in my powder room recently. I found this cute picture on a recent trip to HomeGoods along with the three little topiaries.
The topiaries actually came in that wire basket you see below.

 Here's what the shelf looked like before...

It's always fun changing things up.
  Thanks for stopping by...have a super week!

~Outside Summer Entry~

 I figured I better show you how our front stoop looks before it gets changed up for the fall...which by the way I don't do until the end of September.
I decided on leaving the door plain after I had to fix it from the damage my magnetic hook left :( good thing I still had some paint left! I also bought a new rug from Ballards, it's similar to the one I had there before.

 

 I just bought this two tiered planter at a local nursery for $30. I thought that was a steal considering it's size.

  I know the fern is called asparagus fern but I can't remember the name of the other plant. I love how it cascades over the sides.

My concrete bunny is sitting just waiting to greet you :)

 I added more of the asparagus fern to my concrete urn.

 Thanks for stopping by! Have a super weekend!

Adding a little Cheetah print to a footstool

Hey friends I'm back...I can't believe it's been 3 months since I last posted!! I really missed everyone! I was on a much needed break, I started to feel burned out and I felt like I wasn't giving my family 100%...can't have that now! 
I can't THANK YOU guys enough for all the sweet e-mails you've sent me checking up to see if everything was ok, that really touched me!  
I also got myself back in shape again...I've been walking 3 miles a day and feel great! I'm not going to let that change. OK enough of my blabbering...let's take a look at this quick and easy makeover!

Here's the before... I gave it this look a few years ago.

Love this fabric, I bought it at Hobby Lobby.

Didn't even need to whip out a paint brush, just used my sanding block and gave it that worn look.

 See my new grain sack pillow, it was made for me by my friend Ann Sutton Place Designs
it goes perfect with this chair. Ann made me more new pillows for this room that I'll be showing you guys soon.

And here is the newest addition to our family...meet Neena! She's going to be 5 months old! We adopted her in May from North Shore Animal League in Long Island, NY.
She's a sweetie, we love her to pieces! I'll do a full post on her soon.
She's finishing up her bone in this pic.

It feels so good to be back!! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Tick Tock a Pretty Clock

Hi friends...I'm back! 
Missed you guys! The last week and a half has been very draining with both my girls getting sick! Victoria had the flu and Mackenzie had a bad case of bronchitis, really knocking them for a loop.Thankfully my son managed to stay healthy! All is well again thank the Lord! 
 Look at this pretty metal clock I found in Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago. I love the chippy, rusty look it has, along with it's aged face(now this is a face I like to see aged LOL)!!

 A pretty new addition to my bedside table.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Now it's time for me to go and play catch up and see what I've missed...have a great week!
